The implant
It is positioned in the bone and acts as an artificial root.
PRECISION IMPLANTOLOGY IN ISTANBUL
Solid foundations for a lasting smile
A dental implant replaces the root of a missing tooth. At Nobel Dent, every treatment begins with a personalised analysis of your teeth, bone volume and occlusion in order to define a solution that is suited to you, functional and natural.

A new root, designed to support your future tooth
A dental implant is a small component, usually made of titanium, placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. After the healing phase, it serves as a support for a crown, a bridge or a denture, depending on the number of teeth to be replaced.
The abutment
It creates the connection between the implant and the visible restoration.
The crown
Custom-made, it restores the appearance and function of the tooth.
Every anatomy is different. The diameter, length, axis and type of implant are determined after the clinical and radiological analysis.
BIOLOGY IN THE SERVICE OF STABILITY
How does the implant integrate with the bone?
Osseointegration is the process by which living bone establishes direct, stable contact with the implant surface. The initial stability achieved during placement is progressively taken over by biological stability linked to healing and bone remodelling.
Initial stability
At the time of placement, the shape of the implant and the quality of the bone contribute to its mechanical anchorage. This primary stability guides the choice of healing protocol.
Bone formation
During the first weeks, the tissues heal and new bone progressively forms in contact with the implant surface.
Maturation and remodelling
The bone continues to organise itself around the implant. The practitioner then checks its stability and decides on the appropriate moment for the final restoration.
Healing time varies depending in particular on the area treated, bone quality and volume, general health, smoking, hygiene and the chosen protocol. There is therefore no single timeline that applies to every patient.
A surface designed to promote contact with the bone
At the microscopic scale, the topography and surface properties of the implant influence the first interactions with the surrounding cells and tissues. The clinical objective is to achieve stable integration while respecting the biology of the bone and soft tissues.
Implant design
The geometry and thread contribute to the stability achieved during placement.
Surface finish
The texture and surface properties play a part in the biological response around the implant.
Bone environment
The volume, density and vascularisation of the bone remain decisive.
Follow-up
Hygiene, check-ups and maintenance help preserve the tissues around the implant.
PRECISION AND PERSONALISATION
Success is prepared before the procedure
3D imaging makes it possible to study the available bone volume and the anatomical structures to be respected. The surgeon can thus prepare the position, axis and dimensions of the implant in line with the future tooth. When the indication allows it, this planning can be combined with a surgical guide.
- Clinical assessment and analysis of your project.
- 3D imaging and evaluation of the implant site.
- Personalised treatment plan and choice of system.
- Placement, healing, restoration and follow-up programme.
RECOGNISED MATERIALS AND SYSTEMS
A system chosen according to your indication, never at random
The clinic works with recognised implant manufacturers. The system is selected by the surgeon according to the anatomy, bone quality, planned restoration and clinical protocol. The clinic provides the patient with the traceability information for the device actually placed.
Straumann® — precision and primary stability
The Straumann BLX system features a design intended for primary stability, the Roxolid® material and the SLActive® surface. These characteristics apply to this specific model.
Nobel Biocare® — a versatile implant approach
The NobelActive system with TiUltra™ combines a grade 4 titanium body, an internal conical connection and the TiUltra™ surface. These characteristics apply to this specific model.
Osstem® — tapered design and treated surface
The Osstem TSIII SA system features a tapered body aimed at primary stability; its SA surface is obtained by sandblasting and acid etching. These characteristics cannot be generalised to the entire Osstem range.
Medigma® — conical connection and RBM surface
The Medigma Fix Konisch™ system features a conical-hexagonal connection, a self-tapping tapered body and an RBM surface obtained by blasting with resorbable calcium phosphate particles. The exact model and its diameter correspond to the device actually placed.
BEGO Semados® — German engineering and clinical versatility
The BEGO Semados® range comprises several families, notably RS/RSX, SC/SCX, RI and S TG, and uses the TiPurePlus® surface. The Semados RI model features a tapered body, a self-condensing thread and platform switching — characteristics specific to this model, not attributable to the entire range.
VenusCon® — RBM surface and dimensional choice
VenusCon® implants are available in various diameters and lengths, in Ti6Al4V ELI titanium alloy (grade 23), with an RBM surface treated with calcium phosphate.
The brands and models presented are medical devices used according to their indication. No system on its own guarantees the success of a treatment. Results also depend on the diagnosis, the surgical procedure, healing, hygiene and follow-up.
Technology matters. The complete protocol makes the difference.
- A precise diagnosis — Clinical evaluation, imaging and analysis of the occlusion.
- A suitable indication — Reasoned choice of the number, position and type of implants.
- Controlled surgery — Respect for the bone, soft tissues and anatomical structures.
- Monitored healing — Scheduled check-ups and a timeline adapted to the patient.
- Long-term maintenance — Daily hygiene, scaling and regular check-ups.
Frequently asked questions
Is implant placement painful?
The procedure is generally performed under local anaesthesia. Sensitivity, swelling or temporary discomfort may appear after surgery. The practitioner gives you instructions and treatment suited to your situation.
How long does it take to receive the final tooth?
The timeline depends on the treated site, the stability of the implant, bone quality and whether a graft is needed. A provisional restoration can sometimes be considered, but immediate loading is not possible in every situation.
Can an implant be placed when bone is lacking?
Bone augmentation or another technique may be proposed after the 3D analysis. Only the clinical assessment can determine the appropriate solution.
How long does an implant last?
An implant can function durably when it is well indicated, correctly placed and regularly maintained. There is, however, no universal guarantee of longevity: smoking, certain diseases, bruxism, hygiene and follow-up influence the prognosis.
How should an implant be maintained?
Brushing, interdental cleaning and maintenance visits are essential. The tissues around the implant must be monitored just like those around a natural tooth.
