Treatments
As a specialist dentist, I focus on preserving and enhancing the oral health of my patients by offering a wide range of services, including root canal treatment, general examination, teeth whitening, treatment of gum diseases, dental cleaning, dental X-ray imaging, as well as aesthetic fillings and bonding.
Root Canal
Treatments
We specialize in resolving root problems in teeth and aim to provide a healthy oral environment painlessly.
Root canal treatment is a procedure used when the soft tissues inside the tooth, known as the pulp, become infected or damaged. The damaged tissue is removed, and the canals are cleaned, shaped, and disinfected. After cleaning, the canals are filled and typically sealed with a filling or crown.
In modern dentistry, anesthetic solutions and techniques have been developed to ensure that you should not feel any pain during the procedure. Inadequately numbed teeth can cause pain, so the expertise and approach of your dentist are crucial in managing this effectively.
Teeth that require root canal treatment are generally those with decay or other causes leading to infection. Root canal treatment does not shorten the lifespan of the tooth; on the contrary, it allows the damaged tooth to remain in the mouth for many years. With proper fillings and crowns done after a well-performed root canal treatment, you can use your teeth healthily for many years.
The duration varies depending on the condition of the tooth before treatment. Generally, it can be completed in 1 or 2 sessions. Factors such as the condition of the tooth, the number of canals, the extent of infection, and the location of the tooth affect the duration of each session. A simple root canal treatment may take about 1 hour, while more complex treatments may take longer.
Root canal treated teeth can sometimes show gray or black discoloration. While simple teeth whitening may solve it in some cases, aesthetic materials such as fillings, veneers, or crowns are used to mask the color in others.
General
Examination
I thoroughly examine my patients' oral health from start to finish and create a treatment plan with an expert perspective.
Get Appointment Date: Information about the patient's general health status, previous dental treatments, and other important details is obtained.
Visual Examination of the Mouth and Teeth: The dentist reviews the external appearance and overall condition of the mouth and teeth. They examine for cavities, cracks, the condition of fillings, and other abnormalities.
Plaque and Tartar Control: Plaque and tartar deposits on the teeth are checked. Dental cleaning may be performed if necessary.
Examination of Spaces Between Teeth The spaces between teeth and the condition of the gums are examined. Gum diseases or gum recession are checked for.
Cavity Screening Cavities and areas at risk of decay in the teeth are checked. If necessary, X-rays may be taken to support cavity detection.
Examination of Fillings and Other Restorative Signs The condition of existing fillings, other restorative signs, and any missing teeth, if present, are examined.
Gum Examination The health of the gums is examined. Gum diseases are identified, and if necessary, a treatment plan is created.
Oral Scan Examination of the oral tissues and tongue can help in the early detection of serious conditions.
Tooth Mobility Control: Tooth mobility is assessed. Efforts are made to identify potential tooth loss due to gum diseases or other issues.
A general dental examination is important for assessing the overall dental health of the patient and detecting potential problems early. This examination should be conducted regularly and followed according to the treatment plan determined by the dentist.
Dental examinations should be conducted regularly to assess an individual's overall dental health and detect potential problems early. While the recommended frequency is at least twice a year, in some cases, more frequent examinations may be necessary. Here is more information on how often dental examinations should be conducted and why they are important:
1. Recommended Frequency:
- Generally, dental examinations should be conducted at least twice a year, or every six months. This allows the dentist to regularly check your teeth, assess your oral hygiene, and establish early treatment plans when necessary. However, depending on the individual's dental and gum health, the dentist may recommend more frequent examinations.
2. Early Diagnosis:
- Regular dental examinations help in the early diagnosis of potential issues. Early diagnosis facilitates the treatment of serious conditions such as tooth decay, gum diseases, gum recession, oral cancer, making it easier and reducing the risk of complications.
3. Preventive Care:
- Dental examinations are part of preventive care. The dentist can provide recommendations on proper oral hygiene habits such as tooth brushing and flossing, thereby helping to prevent future problems.
4. Teeth Cleaning and Tartar Removal:
- During dental examinations, teeth cleaning and tartar removal help to remove plaque and tartar buildup on the teeth. This can aid in the prevention of tooth decay and other dental issues.
5. Importance for Overall Health:
- Oral health is directly linked to overall health. Dental examinations are important for assessing the impact of oral health on general health. Additionally, they are crucial for the early detection of serious conditions such as oral cancer.
Therefore, regular dental examinations are vital for both a healthy mouth and overall health, and thus should not be neglected.
- Making an Appointment Over the Phone: You can request an appointment by calling over the phone. Typically, the clinic receptionist will schedule an appointment for you at a convenient date and time.
- Online Appointment System: You can request an appointment by filling out the appointment form on our website.
- Making an Appointment at the Clinic: You can also have an examination without an appointment. However, coming without an appointment, especially during busy hours, may extend the waiting time.
When scheduling an appointment, don't forget to specify your preferred date and time range. Additionally, it's important to check the coverage of your health insurance, if any, and the examination fees.
Hygiene: Before a dental examination, ensure oral hygiene by brushing your teeth and using dental floss if possible. This helps to present a cleaner mouth during the examination.
Arriving on Time for the Appointment: Arriving at the clinic on time for your appointment is important. Delays waste both your time and that of other patients.
Relaxation Techniques: If you feel anxious or tense during the dental examination, you can apply relaxation techniques such as taking deep breaths or practicing meditation.
Being Open: Be open in your communication with your dentist. Providing information about any previous dental issues or pains you have experienced is important for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
Asking Questions: During the examination, feel free to ask any questions that come to mind. Your dentist will be happy to provide you with information about the procedures.
Pain Reporting: If you experience any pain or discomfort during the examination, immediately inform your dentist. Feeling some discomfort may be normal, but excessive pain or discomfort could be significant.
Following the Treatment Plan: It's important to adhere to the treatment plan recommended by your dentist. Getting the necessary treatments done on time is crucial for maintaining your dental health.
Following Doctor's Instructions: Adhering to the instructions provided by your dentist is critical for the success of the treatment process. Pay particular attention to your dentist's recommendations, especially regarding oral hygiene and dietary habits.
By paying attention to these points, you can have a more comfortable experience during the dental examination and maintain your dental health.
Follow Your Dentist's Instructions: Your dentist may give you specific instructions after the examination. Follow these instructions carefully and adhere to the recommendations provided.
Pay Attention to Oral Hygiene: After the dental examination, pay special attention to your oral hygiene. Brush your teeth and gums regularly and use dental floss. Additionally, you can use mouthwashes recommended by your dentist.
Review the Examination Results: Your dentist will provide you with information about the condition of your mouth after the examination. Review this information carefully and learn about any necessary treatments that need to be done.
Schedule Your Appointments: Schedule the appointments recommended by your dentist and adhere to your examination schedule. Regular check-ups help maintain your oral health.
Consult Your Doctor in Case of Pain or Discomfort: Muayene sonrasında ağrı veya rahatsızlık hissederseniz, hemen diş hekiminize başvurun. Gecikmeden tedavi edilmeyen problemler daha ciddi sorunlara yol açabilir.
Diyetinize Dikkat Edin: Avoid consuming hard or hot foods after a dental examination. Also, steer clear of sugary or acidic drinks, as these can weaken your teeth and lead to decay.
Avoid Smoking and Alcohol Consumption: Avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption after a dental examination. These habits can negatively impact your oral health and delay the healing process.
Regularly Visit the Dentist for Check-ups: After a dental examination, regularly visit your dentist for check-ups. These check-ups ensure the monitoring of your oral health and enable the early detection of potential issues.
By paying attention to these points, you can experience a healthy recovery process after a dental examination and maintain your oral health.
Gum
Diseas
I specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of gum diseases, providing my patients with healthy gums and a strong oral structure.
Gum diseases encompass conditions such as inflammation or infection of the gums. Symptoms may include redness, swelling, bleeding gums, gum recession, and bad breath.
The main cause of gum diseases is the bacterial layer called plaque damaging the gums. Risk factors include irregular tooth brushing, poor oral hygiene, smoking, hormonal changes, and genetic factors.
The treatment of gum diseases depends on the severity and type of the disease. Treatment options may include dental cleanings, root surface debridement, pocket irrigation, antibiotic therapy, and surgical interventions.
To prevent the progression of gum diseases, you can take measures such as regular brushing, flossing, attending regular dental check-ups, adopting healthy dietary habits, and avoiding smoking.
When gum diseases progress, they can lead to tooth loss, receding gums, permanent damage to the gum tissue, bone loss, and other serious health issues. Therefore, it's important to maintain gum health.
Teeth
Cleaning
I maintain my patients' oral hygiene at the highest level by providing professional dental cleaning services, removing plaque and tartar from their teeth.
Dental cleaning is the process of removing plaque and tartar buildup on the teeth. This procedure helps prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and other oral health issues. Additionally, it is the foundation for having white and healthy teeth.
During a dental cleaning, the dentist or hygienist cleans your teeth using special tools and tartar removers. Plaque and tartar buildup are removed, followed by brushing, polishing, and fluoride application to the teeth.
Typically, dental cleaning should be done at least twice a year, which means every six months. However, the frequency may vary depending on the recommendation of your dentist. Regular dental cleanings are an important part of maintaining dental health and preventing future problems.
No, dental cleaning is generally a painless procedure. However, if there are gum diseases or other dental issues present, you may experience mild discomfort during the cleaning. Your dentist can employ various techniques to ensure the most comfortable experience for you.
After dental cleaning, it's important to follow your dentist's recommendations. Particularly, you should be diligent with your brushing and flossing habits and continue scheduling regular dental check-up appointments. Additionally, you can maintain your dental health by using oral hygiene products recommended by your dentist.
Teeth
Whitening
With our expertise and modern equipment, we offer you a comprehensive dental health examination. We are here to support your healthy smiles.
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic procedure done to lighten the color of teeth or to get rid of stains. This procedure can be performed by a dentist either in-office or at home. In-office whitening typically involves the use of a strong gel and a special light, while at-home whitening is done with a custom tray fitted to the teeth and whitening gel applied to it.
The duration of teeth whitening varies depending on the method used and the individual's tooth color. In-office whitening typically takes a few hours, while at-home whitening may take a few weeks. However, both methods usually require multiple sessions.
Teeth whitening procedure is generally painless. However, some individuals may experience mild sensitivity or discomfort during the procedure. This condition is usually temporary and fades away after the procedure.
The effectiveness of the teeth whitening procedure can vary from person to person and depends on the method used. Typically, teeth whitening results can last from several months to several years. However, maintaining regular dental cleanings and oral hygiene habits can help prolong the results for a longer duration.
Teeth whitening is not recommended for pregnant or nursing women, children under 16 years of age, and those with gum disease. Additionally, if the cause of tooth discoloration is due to tooth decay or other serious health issues, teeth whitening may not be recommended.
AESTHETIC FILLINGS
And Bonding
Aesthetic fillings and bonding procedures fill in gaps in teeth, repair cavities, and aesthetically reshape smiles.
Aesthetic fillings and bonding are cosmetic dental procedures used to fill cavities, cracks, or gaps in teeth, and to correct the shape or color of teeth. While fillings involve filling teeth with various materials, bonding involves covering teeth with a special composite resin.
The aesthetic filling and bonding procedure can vary depending on the number and condition of the teeth to be treated. Typically, the procedure for a single tooth can take approximately 30 minutes to an hour. However, more extensive procedures may take longer.
The aesthetic filling and bonding procedure is generally painless because local anesthesia is used. However, some individuals may experience slight discomfort or sensitivity during the procedure. This condition is typically temporary.
The durability of aesthetic filling and bonding depends on the type of materials used, the individual's dental hygiene, and how well they care for their teeth. Typically, with proper care, filling and bonding procedures can last several years or longer.
The aesthetic fillings and bonding procedure may not be suitable for individuals with severe tooth decay, gum diseases, or excessive tooth loss. Additionally, in cases where there are significant fractures or damage to the teeth, other treatment options should be considered.
X-ray
I diagnose and determine the treatment plan for dental and jaw structure issues most accurately and quickly through X-ray imaging.
Dental X-ray is a medical imaging technique used by dentists to obtain images of teeth and surrounding tissues. This technique is utilized in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as tooth decay, tooth roots, gum diseases, jawbone, and temporomandibular joint disorders.
A dental x-ray procedure is an examination performed with an x-ray film or sensor placed in the mouth, under the guidance of the dentist. Low doses of X-rays coming out of the X-ray device penetrate various tissues to different degrees while passing through the teeth, and an image of different intensities is obtained depending on these penetration rates.
Different types of x-rays may be used during a dental x-ray procedure. These include types such as panoramic x-ray, periapical x-ray, interoral x-ray, and CBCT (cone beam computed tomography). Which type of x-ray to use depends on the patient's needs and the diagnostic or treatment goal.
Dental X-rays involve low levels of radiation and therefore can pose potential health risks with prolonged exposure. However, technologies used in modern X-ray machines and precautions taken help minimize radiation dosage.
Dental X-rays are commonly used by dentists for diagnosis or treatment planning. Therefore, dental X-ray procedures can be safely performed at any age and in most health conditions. However, X-rays are typically avoided for pregnant women, especially in non-emergency situations. Therefore, an evaluation should be conducted considering the patient's condition and needs before performing a dental X-ray procedure.
