An implant is a type of prosthesis that is placed in the place of the decayed tooth. Instead of a dental root, an artificial metal post is added, thus the tooth is attached to the jawbone. These long-lasting implants are applied by specialists in a sterile environment with a surgical process. To be applied to the implant, the gums and jawbone must be suitable for implant application. If all necessary conditions are suitable, this artificial tooth attaches to the jawbone within 2-3 months. If the conditions are not suitable, successful results can be obtained with the additional bone surgery application.
The implant teeth appear as one's own teeth and they have the same functions as the original.It can be used for many years when it is applied correctly and if it is used properly by the person being applied.

The main purpose of filling applications is to avoid tooth loss by preventing further damage to one's own tooth and to regain its own function.
There are various filling materials such as gold, amalgam (silver), composite jam and porcelain.
It is necessary to clean the tooth decay for the filling procedure. The cleaned caries are finally filled by the dentist with the filling materials.
Porcelain teeth are also known as dental crowns. The main purpose is to make the tooth look like the original and to prevent tooth loss . As its name signifies, the material in use is porcelain.
