Wisdom teeth (third molars) do not behave the same way in everyone. In some people, they erupt fully and remain problem-free for life; in others, they stay partially impacted, causing food impaction, bacterial accumulation, recurring infections (pericoronitis), or decay on the neighboring tooth. Some remain completely impacted in the bone, “silent” yet potentially risky.

For years, you may have had to rely on denture adhesives such as Fixodent or Corega, feeling insecure while speaking, eating, or when your denture moved. Perhaps you were once told, “Implants are not possible,” or “Your bone loss is too severe.” Today, thanks to zygomatic implants, selected patients with advanced upper jaw bone loss can achieve a stable, adhesive-free, fixed solution.

When tooth extraction comes up in Bursa, the most common questions tend to be the same: “Will it hurt a lot? How long does it take? Can dry socket occur? When can I return to work?” As an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, my purpose is to clarify that extraction is always considered the last option, but when necessary, we perform it in the safest and most comfortable way possible.

Tooth extraction is a procedure that can create anxiety for many patients. However, with proper diagnosis, an individualized treatment plan and gentle surgical techniques, the entire process becomes far more comfortable than expected.

Choosing the right clinic for dental treatment abroad is not just about price—it’s about trust, expertise, and the overall experience. Located in the historic city of Bursa, Milim Dental offers international patients the perfect blend of high-quality care, transparency, and personal attention.

Severe bone loss in the upper jaw is common in long-term denture wearers or patients with untreated gum disease. Normally, implant-supported teeth need solid bone to anchor into—something missing in many of these patients.
