dental and oral health

It is surely beyond doubt that the most important work of dentistry is to provide healthy teeth and a complete chewing function.

The treatment process in the Liv Hospital Oral and Dental Health Clinic is determined specifically for patients of all ages. Our team consists of dentists who are expert and competent in every branch.

In the Oral and Dental Health Clinic, the implant applications, aesthetic porcelain crown and “laminate veneer” systems that have come into prominence in recent years and are in demand by patients are applied at the highest level. In our clinic not only the therapeutic procedures but also the preventive medicine with cavity analysis tests and cavity prevention programs especially in children are important.

The services offered in our clinic

esthetic operations

Gingival Esthetics

Not only your teeth’s appearance but also your gingival apperance is really important especially in the part of maxilla frontal incisor.  There are certain ways to make the gingival, which surrounds the restoration, look nice.

  • Gingivectomy

It is the gingival removal process by cutting in gingival enlargements and in the areas that have deep pockets. Then the physiological and aesthetic form is given to gingival by fixing the gingival contours.

  • Surgical Crown Lengthening

When the gingival tissue dangles from upper lip redundantly and covers the teeth so much the length of the teeth may seem very short in the mouth. This is named as “gummy smile” and affects the esthetics negatively. The surplus gingival tissue is removed by the surgical crown lengthening operation and underlying bone is reshaped and a more long aspect is provided to teeth.

  • Dental Esthetics  Whitening (Bleaching)

    Whitening is the operation that removes the discolorations that occur in the structure of teeth namely in enamel and dentin layer and create aesthetic problems.

  • Home Bleaching (Household type)In home bleaching firstly the measurement is taken from the patient’s mouth. The bleaching solution is poured in customisable trays by patients and the operation is performed. Maximum 6 hours a day, it is applicable until obtaining the desired whiteness.

    Office Bleaching (Clinical type)

    It is applied by a physician in a clinical environment. The used solution has more concentration than Household type. It comes up with result faster than home bleaching.

    Laminate Veneers

    It is a kind of partial crown denture that is made from aesthetic materials in order to restore the  outer surfaces of teeth that are only visible from outside the mouth. It is the most conservative among the restorations that can be applied for aesthetic purposes. Mostly an about 0.5 mm washing that is performed on a tooth is sufficient.

    Application Areas

    • Small material loss due to tooth decay or fracture
    • Correction of crowding
    • Filling the diastemas
    • Stop corrosions on teeth.
    • Based on drug use and excessive use of fluoride on teeth
    • Correction discolorations
    • Correction of formal and structural defects in teeth
    • Ensure white smile
    • Extending the length of the teeth

    Zirconium Teeth

    It is a white infrastructure material that, under the aesthetic surfaces instead of metal as infrastructure, has all the features that we wanted and natural appearance in terms of biocompatibility, natural appearance, mechanical resistance and aesthetics. They are safely preferred since they are natural enough to be used in incisor robust enough to be used in posterior teeth.

    It’s material zirconium allows light transmission, does not create a gray image and provides the natural appearance that is closest to the original teeth.

    Application Areas

    • On highest degree discolorations that whitening methods don’t work on it (Antibiotics, fluoride, etc.), genetic structure discolorations
    • On combining the discrete teeth (Diastema covering)
    • On the treatment of broken teeth
    • On the restoration of old fillings that are discolored and deformed
    • On the treatment of crowded and curve teeth (As an alternative to orthodontic treatment)
    • On the teeth that have excess material loss that they can not be filled
    • On the non-metal backed (Full Ceramic) crown and bridge prosthesis

    Implant

    • They are tissue-friendly artificial tooth roots that were prepared from titanium material placed into the jawbone in order to restore the function and aesthetics of the missing teeth.
    • It provides more aesthetic and more natural appearance.
    • Confidence of the person is increased by providing the natural appearance and aesthetics.
    • Function is seen as the best alternative to natural teeth in terms of aesthetics and anatomical.
    • The implant treatment is a comfortable, robust and reliable application.
    • It makes you feel like you are chewing with your own teeth even during chewing.
    • While completing the missing teeth healty teeth are not damaged.
    • It is more durable than all other prosthesis.
    • Due to the safety that it makes feel you, the adverse psychological effects of tooth loss are eliminated.
    • The conservatism is at the maximum level on total (palate), partial or fixed prosthesis that are applied on implant.
    • The more well-balanced and preferable nutrition is provided since it’s function chewing is put in order.
    • The material loss occurs on the bone parts that have missing teeth and the bones become thin day by day. Accordingly there are some changes in facial profile. By placing the implant the bone loss is prevented and this supports the soft tissue, thus a more youthful appearance is provided.

    Inley and onley

    It is an aesthetic treatment method that is provided on teeth that don’t have adequate dental tissue for filling or are not damaged so much and don’t need covering. Inleys and onleys are made from ceramic or fiber-reinforced composite.

    • It is much more durable than composite content fillers.
    • It has not got wear and deformation problems that are experienced in composites.
    • It has not got marginal edge leakage like composite fillings.
    • It does not allow easy to occur bacterial adhesion and stain formation thanks to their polished surfaces.
    • It simulates anatomically less-than-stellar the missing contours and contact points with neighboring teeth of teeth since it was prepared in a laboratory environment.
    • The chewing surfaces of the porcelain inlay onlay fillings are prepared as slavish imitation of anatomic chewing line. Thus, it is far superior than the composite fillings in terms of chewing and grinding functions.
    • It prevents cracking and breakage that may occur in weak parts of tooth since it makes one to one and stressless contact with tooth.

    Bonding

    It is making addition to tooth by using composite resin material in the tooth color of decayed, broken, notched or coloured teeth in order to change the shape or color of tooth, enlarge or treat a defect. Bonding is the one of preventive dentistry applications that is frequently used at the present time.

    Application Areas

    • On the restoration of broken teeth
    • On filling the gaps between teeth (Diastema)
    • On extending the length of the teeth
    • When changing the color or shape of the tooth needed

orthodontics

It is a treatment that is applied so as to correct irregular and misaligned teeth, eliminate the discrepancies on teeth, jaw and face. Other than the conventional method that is applied with the help of brackets that are applied to the outer surfaces of the teeth the methods are also available that adults can use more convenient.

Invisalign

Invisalign, is a radio orthodontic treatment that is applied to fix your teeth with customisable transparent plates (aligner).  The most important motive to prefer invisalign that offers the radio orthodontic treatment opportunity is that it does not come out that you had orthodontic treatment after you had tooth crowding treatment.

İncognito Lingual Ortodonti

It is the last point arrived at aesthetic orthodontics. The treatment is designed with completely tailor-made brackets by using CAD CAM technology with the studies that are performed on the measurement taken from patient.

pedodontics

The primary task of the pediatric dentist is to protect children from tooth decay. The purpose of this first inspection that is performed at an early age is to show to the families that what should be done to prevent decomposition of the baby’s teeth and control the dental healthwith controls that are performed at regular intervals. The World Health Organization recommends to perform the first dentist examination after first tooth erupts (Usually between 6 months to 1 year).

Fissure sealant application

Fissure sealant application is a preventive dental treatment that the recesses and grooves of chewing surfaces on molar teeth are covered with a flowable filler. The purpose of the fissure sealant application is to prevent nutrient accumulation in the rotten convenient recesses and grooves of molars, make these surfaces more easy to brush and minimize the risk of decay.

Fluor application

To strengthen the building block of tooth enamel with fluoride and make tooth structure more resistant to decays is aimed at the fluor application. Fluor gel application can be applied all surfaces of all teeth. When applied correctly there is no side effects. Fluor gel application becomes effective from 4 to 6 months depending on the decay risk group that the children are also included. At the end of this period it should be repeated.

periodontology

In Periodontology Clinic; the regeneration is performed to regenerate the supporting tissues that were devastated due to periodontal disease by stimulating the body’s own production mechanisms. Also the operations such as soft tissue grafting that is applied in the case of gingival recession and consequently expose of root surfaces and simple scaling are performed. It is really important to provide the scaling training extendedly with operations such as oral hygiene education, fluoride application and tongue cleaning.

What sort of applications includes the scaling?

  • Tartar is removed with an ultrasonic cleaner and the spaces between teeth and colorations are cleaned dental cleaning powder that is called air-flow.
  • Teeth surfaces are polished with private pats.
  • Tongue surface that has excess bacteria accumulation is cleaned.
  • The flossing is applied to all spaces between teeth both control and training purposeful.
  • Finally the enamel of the tooth is strengthened by fluorine gel application and how to care is taught to the patient.

surgery

Surgical treatment in dentistry includes applications such as pulling out wisdom tooth, abscess and cyst operations, implant surgery.

  • Wisdom tooth operations

There is no problem if a continued in the right position and did not damage the surrounding tissue wisdom tooth is not pulled out. However, in some cases, these teeth may be needed to pull out. If the wisdom tooth causes decay, gingival disease (Perikoronit), cyst formation, pressure pain and orthodontic problems it is better to pull out it.

  • Abscesses and cysts operations

The a.pical resection is the end of tooth root and surrounding related infectious or pathological tissue remove process  This process is done to ensure a healthy structure to related tooth and around when the inflammation and infection at the end of the root don’t get better although the repetition of this treatment or in the presence of related chronic pathologies.

  • Implant surgery

Bone transplantation

The bone pieces are taken when there is no enough bone height and / or thickness for dental implant. It is fixed to thin part of jawbones.

Sinus lifting operation

The bone thins vertically and sinus cavities hang over time in people who lose their molar teeth in the upper jaw.  As a result, there is no enough bone height to insert the  dental implants at appropriate length.   In such cases the sagged sinus is removed and the bone graft (Bone powder) is placed to the formed space.
