Seamless / Flapless Dental Implant Istanbul, Turkey

A seamless, also called a flapless dental implant, is a method that reduces healing time, offers patient comfort during application, and totally does away with the need for sutures in implant placement. Another name for this method is seamless implant. The bone tissue where the implant will be placed is accessible, and the gums are exposed during traditional implant surgery. The areas of incision made in this way must be sutured shut after the implant is implanted. Unless dissolving suture material is used, these sutures need to be removed afterwards. This process is readily completed without surgery or the hassle of taking sutures, thanks to the flapless implant technology.

How to do flapless implant placement

Using 3D imaging technology, flapless implant placement can be done more safely and without the need for sutures. In the traditional technique, the implant is inserted, the flap is raised by an incision, and it is then sewn shut. Under local anaesthesia and with the aid of 3D imaging, the seamless implant is created by using a laser to create a small incision in the location of the implant. Soft tissue intervention in the flapless implant technique is negligible because it excludes traditional incision surgery techniques.
