Our Oral and Dental Health Clinic provides services based on modern, evidence-based dentistry. We offer diagnosis and treatment across multiple specialties, including oral diagnosis, periodontology, endodontics, restorative dentistry, pediatric dentistry, oral and maxillofacial surgery, prosthodontics, and aesthetic dentistry.
Teeth, oral mucosa, tongue, and surrounding tissues are carefully evaluated, and individualized treatment plans are created. When necessary, patients are referred to the appropriate specialty areas.
What Conditions Does Oral and Dental Health Cover?
Prosthetic Dental Treatments
Prosthetic dental treatments aim to restore lost function, aesthetics, and comfort caused by missing or damaged teeth. Missing teeth and tissues are replaced using appropriate materials.
Dental prostheses are classified into two types:
Removable Dentures
Removable dentures can be inserted and removed by the patient. Adapting to new dentures may take time. During this period, it is recommended to eat smaller portions and chew on both sides. Dentures should be removed at night, cleaned properly, and stored appropriately.
Complete Dentures
Complete dentures are used when no natural teeth remain. They are fully supported by oral tissues and are also known as full dentures.
Fixed Prostheses
Fixed prostheses are attached to natural teeth or dental implants and cannot be removed by the patient.
Gum Diseases (Periodontology)
The main cause of gum disease is bacterial plaque. Factors such as smoking, systemic diseases, stress, and nutrition can also affect gum health.
Symptoms of Gum Disease
- Bleeding gums during brushing
- Red, swollen, or sensitive gums
- Bad breath
- Gum recession
- Pus or discharge between teeth and gums
- Loose or shifting teeth
- Changes in bite alignment
Root Canal Treatment (Endodontics)
Root canal treatment involves removing infected or inflamed pulp tissue, cleaning and shaping the canal, and filling it with appropriate materials. The goal is to preserve the natural tooth and maintain its function.
Pediatric Dentistry
Pediatric dentistry focuses on maintaining and treating the oral health of children aged 0–13. Both preventive and therapeutic approaches are used to support healthy dental development.
- Oral hygiene education
- Pediatric prosthetic applications
- Tooth extraction
- Preventive treatments (fluoride applications, fissure sealants)
- Dental trauma management
- Restorative treatments (fillings)
- Space maintainers
Why Are Primary (Baby) Teeth Important?
Primary teeth support proper nutrition and speech development. They also serve as space maintainers for permanent teeth. Early loss of baby teeth may lead to alignment problems.
Preventive Dentistry
Preventive dentistry aims to reduce the risk of tooth decay. Education for both children and families plays a key role in maintaining oral health.
Fissure Sealants
Fissure sealants protect the grooves on chewing surfaces of teeth, helping to prevent decay.
Fluoride Applications
Fluoride strengthens tooth enamel and helps protect against cavities. It is applied periodically by dental professionals.
Restorative Dental Treatments
Restorative dentistry focuses on repairing tooth structure and improving aesthetics caused by decay or damage.
Treatments Available
- Prevention of tooth decay
- Treatment of dental caries
- Composite fillings
Composite Fillings
Composite fillings are tooth-colored and provide aesthetic results. They can be used for both front and back teeth and are typically completed in a single visit. They can also be used to close small gaps between teeth for improved appearance.
