Cone Beam CT Scanner

Before you visit our clinic for dental implants in Turkey, we suggest you have a Cone Beam CT scan in your country and send the scan to us. However, we know this isn’t always possible, but we request that you send us conventional 2-D digital dental x-rays taken recently. We can then analyse your teeth and jawbone further when you attend the clinic.

Our cone beam CT scanner is one of the most important pieces of equipment in our dental clinic, taking the guesswork out of implant treatment. CT stands for computed tomography, and this scanner is similar to a regular CT scan, taking detailed 3-D images of your teeth and jaws. However, it is even safer than a routine CT scan, emitting less radiation.

The scan is quick and painless, as you just need to remove any facial jewellery and glasses, and we will position your head comfortably for the scan. The arm of the scanner moves around you, and you simply need to hold still for less than a minute.

A Cone Beam CT scan is also useful for planning many dental treatments, such as wisdom tooth extractions, but is essential when planning any dental implant procedure.

Our oral surgeon can view the 3-D images of your teeth and jaws from any angle. They can assess your jawbone quality, ensuring there is enough bone to surround each dental implant. Good bone health is essential as the implants need to fuse with the bone around them to provide strong, stable support for implant teeth. Don’t worry if there isn’t enough bone, as a bone grafting procedure can restore it. Although bone grafting might lengthen the time needed to complete your dental implants in Turkey, the final outcome will be well worth the effort.

After assessing your teeth and jaws, our oral surgeon can plan your treatment, deciding precisely where to place each implant while avoiding important structures like nerves and sinus cavities. They will determine each implant's exact depth and angulation, ensuring that once you receive your new implant teeth in Turkey, they look and feel natural and allow you to eat comfortably, restoring excellent functionality.

By the time you sit in the dental chair for computer-guided dental implant surgery in Turkey, our oral surgeon will have preplanned every step of the procedure. Consequently, your treatment is quicker and only minimal incisions are needed. Afterwards, healing is faster with minimal discomfort.

Intraoral Scanner

If you gag at the thought of having a messy, goopy tray impression, you are in for a treat when you visit Smile Dental in Turkey. We don’t use old-fashioned tray impressions; instead, we scan your teeth with a small, handheld intraoral scanner.

The scanner takes hundreds of pictures of your teeth stitched together using special software to create a detailed 3-D image. It is far more accurate than a tray impression and considerably more comfortable, and is wonderful for anyone with a strong gag reflex. Once we have finished scanning your teeth, we can display the image on the screen in your treatment room, so you can see what we see. This allows us to explain treatment more easily and is a great educational tool for our dental team. We can instantly magnify the image on-screen and check it to ensure it is absolutely perfect before transmitting the image to our on-site dental laboratory.

The dental lab uses the scan to create your custom dental restoration, whether it is a porcelain filling, crown, bridge or veneer or implant teeth in Turkey. The final result is a precision fitted restoration that protects and preserves your teeth and provides excellent results.

Digital Smile Design

We know that having cosmetic dentistry can seem like a leap of faith. While a good cosmetic dentist in Turkey can visualise your smile, it isn’t always easy to communicate their vision. This is where excellent Digital Smile Design can help.

Our intraoral scanner is also used when custom designing your new teeth in our comfortable Smile Design Suite. We use the 3-D scan of your teeth combined with digital photographs to create virtual images. Dr Uğur is our dedicated smile designer and has years of experience ensuring you receive the teeth you desire. He will work with you on the design, listening carefully to your aims and desires for treatment.

Dr Uğur can custom design each tooth restoration's shape, size, and position using specialised software, creating virtual images showing how your new teeth will look. You will collaborate with Dr Uğur to ensure you are entirely happy with the appearance of your teeth, and he will adjust the images as necessary. Once your design is ready, Smile Dental in Turkey uses the latest CAD/CAM technology when making your new teeth, bringing these virtual images into the real world and creating precision fitted teeth. It is an exciting process and a wonderful way to become truly involved with your cosmetic dental treatment in Turkey and to make sure you receive the beautiful, natural-looking smile of your dreams.

Radiofrequency Cautery

Radiofrequency cautery uses high-frequency radio waves to reshape soft tissues safely, quickly, accurately and comfortably. It is a technology we often use when reshaping gums during a gum recontouring procedure. The electrode tip transmits radio waves, and soft tissue resistance to this frequency causes the tissues to heat up, destroying tissue cells, so excess gum tissue is removed precisely. Radiofrequency cautery produces minimal bleeding due to an effect called coagulation, where blood vessels that are cut are automatically sealed. The technique results in less discomfort after surgery, and healing is faster.

Soft Tissue Dental Laser

Our advanced dental laser removes soft tissues like gums very accurately and is used in several applications. The laser energy is concentrated into a thin beam that cuts away soft tissue quickly while automatically sealing any blood vessels. There is no need for stitches, and healing is faster with fewer side effects such as swelling. The energy produced by the laser also helps to sterilise areas treated, so it can be very useful when treating gum infections such as gum disease, removing tissues damaged too badly to heal while leaving healthy tissues intact.

Our dentists are thoroughly trained and experienced in using our technologies, ensuring you receive the best results safely. Every piece of equipment is maintained meticulously to the very highest standards.
