Many adult patients in Bursa need both orthodontic treatment and dental implants. The big question is:
“Should I straighten my teeth first with Invisalign or braces, or place the implants first?”
At Milim Dental, Dr Begum Ulasan works closely with the oral & maxillofacial surgery team to coordinate complex cases involving dental crowding, clear aligners and implants.
Implants are fixed in the bone – they do not move like natural teeth. That means if you plan to:
Close spaces
Correct crowding
Change the bite
it is usually better to finish braces or Invisalign first, and then place implants in their final, ideal positions.
There are situations where an implant might be placed earlier, for example:
To replace a front tooth that is missing and important for appearance
To support a temporary prosthesis in edentulous areas
When certain movements are planned around a stable anchor
In these cases, Dr Begum Ulasan and the surgical team at Milim Dental Bursa design the orthodontic and implant plan together from the beginning.
Orthodontics can also:
Open space for future implants (for example, where a tooth was lost in childhood)
Close unwanted spaces so fewer implants are needed
By combining clear aligners or braces with a proper restorative plan, you can often:
Reduce the number of implants required
Improve the overall symmetry of your smile
Get a more stable and aesthetic result
Because Milim Dental in Bursa has both orthodontics (with Dr Begum Ulasan) and surgical/prosthetic departments under one roof, treatment planning is seamless.
You don’t have to coordinate information between different clinics; the team discusses your case together and presents you with a clear, phased plan.

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.
For many patients suffering from severe upper jaw bone loss, traditional dental implants are no longer a viable option. Years of tooth loss, periodontal disease, or previous failed implants can result in such bone deterioration that conventional solutions simply don't work. That’s where Zygomatic Implants come in — and at Milim Dental, we specialize in delivering successful outcomes for even the most challenging cases.
