“How safe and technologically advanced is the clinic?”

In our clinic in Bursa, under the leadership of Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon Dr. Direnç Ulaşan, sterilization, 3D imaging (CBCT), guided implant surgery and a fully digital workflow are not “luxury extras” – they are the standard of care.

This article will walk you through how we use CBCT Turkey, guided implant surgery Turkey and digital dentistry Turkey to make your treatment safer, more predictable and more comfortable.


Why Technology Matters in Dental Tourism

Many patients travel abroad for more affordable dental treatment, but price should never be the only criteria. When you are having dental implants, sinus lifts, extractions or a full-mouth rehabilitation, you are putting your long-term health in someone else’s hands.

Modern digital dentistry allows us to:

See your anatomy in three dimensions

Plan implants with millimetre-level precision

Avoid critical structures such as nerves and sinuses

Reduce surgery time and post-operative discomfort

Improve communication between surgeon, technician and patient

This is exactly why we invested heavily in CBCT, intraoral scanners, CAD/CAM and guided surgery systems in our clinic.


1. CBCT in Turkey – 3D Vision for Safer Decisions

What is CBCT?

CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography) is a 3D imaging technique that provides a complete volumetric view of your jaws, teeth, sinuses and nerves in a single scan. Compared with traditional 2D panoramic X-rays, CBCT shows:

Bone width and height

Bone density

Exact position of the nerve canal

Shape and size of the maxillary sinus

Hidden infections, cysts or pathology

When you search for CBCT Turkey, you are actually looking for clinics that can see what they are doing before they touch anything. That is our philosophy.

How We Use CBCT in Our Clinic

Under the guidance of Dr. Direnç Ulaşan, CBCT is used routinely for:

Dental implant planning (single tooth, multiple implants, All-on-4, All-on-6, zygomatic implants)

Wisdom tooth (20-year tooth) extractions close to the nerve

Sinus lift surgeries

Cyst and tumour evaluation in the jaws

Trauma and fracture assessment

Instead of “guessing” with 2D images, Dr. Direnç analyses your CBCT scan in detail, discusses the findings with you and shows you 3D visuals so you clearly understand your situation.

Benefits of CBCT for International Patients

For our dental tourism patients, CBCT offers:

Reduced risk of complications

More accurate diagnosis before you fly

Better planning of how many days you need in Turkey

Clearer cost estimates because we know exactly what will be done

When you read “CBCT Turkey” on our website, it means your case will not be rushed or improvised. It will be studied in 3D before a single incision is made.


2. Guided Implant Surgery in Turkey – From Virtual Plan to Real Smile

What is Guided Implant Surgery?

Guided implant surgery means we place your implants using a surgical guide that has been produced from your 3D CBCT and digital impressions. This guide works like a “template” that directs the drill to the planned angle, position and depth.

When you see the phrase guided implant surgery Turkey, you should think of:

Less guesswork

More precision

Minimally invasive approaches whenever possible

Our Guided Surgery Workflow with Dr. Direnç Ulaşan

In our clinic, guided implant surgery follows a strict protocol:

CBCT Scan

We obtain a high-resolution CBCT of your jaws.

Digital Impressions

Using an intraoral scanner, we take a 3D scan of your teeth and gums – no messy traditional impressions.

Virtual Planning

Dr. Direnç Ulaşan imports both the CBCT and the intraoral scans into special implant planning software.

He positions each implant in ideal relation to bone, nerve and sinus.

He designs the implant angulation so that the final crowns or bridge will have the best function and aesthetics.

Surgical Guide Design & Production

From this virtual plan, a custom 3D-printed surgical guide is produced.

Guided Surgery Day

During surgery, the guide is placed on your teeth or gums and fixed. All drilling steps are performed through the guide sleeves, following the exact plan.

Provisional or Final Teeth

Depending on your case, we provide immediate temporary teeth or proceed to the healing period before your final zirconia or prosthetic work.

Why Guided Implant Surgery Turkey is Ideal for Complex Cases

Guided surgery is especially beneficial when:

Bone volume is limited

You need full mouth implants (All-on-4 / All-on-6)

Implants are close to the sinus or nerve

You want immediate loading with temporary teeth

By combining CBCT Turkey with guided implant surgery Turkey, Dr. Direnç can minimise surgical trauma, shorten operation time and improve comfort, especially for international patients with limited days in the country.


3. Digital Dentistry in Turkey – A Fully Integrated Workflow

When we say digital dentistry Turkey, we don’t just mean owning a scanner. We mean a fully integrated digital workflow from diagnosis to final restoration.

Key Digital Technologies in Our Clinic

Intraoral Scanners

No more gagging or discomfort from traditional impressions

Fast, clean and highly accurate digital models

Perfect communication with the lab and CAD/CAM systems

CAD/CAM Design and Milling

Precise design of zirconia crowns, bridges, full-arch prostheses

Ability to control thickness, contacts and occlusion digitally

Less chairside adjustment and fewer appointments

Digital Smile Design

Planning your smile aesthetics on photos and 3D scans

Showing you a preview of your future smile

Aligning your expectations with what is biologically and functionally possible

Digital Photography & Documentation

Before & after photos for each step

Documentation of angles, lip line and smile dynamics

Transparent records you can keep and share with your dentist back home

What Does Digital Dentistry Mean for You as a Patient?

Fewer visits, more done in each session – useful when you travel from abroad

Better communication – your case data (CBCT, scans, photos) can be sent to your local dentist if needed

More predictable results – everything is measured and simulated, not improvised

Long-term follow-up – all your data is stored digitally for future reference

When patients search for digital dentistry Turkey, they are actually looking for clinics where technology supports the doctor’s skill. That is exactly the environment that Dr. Direnç Ulaşan has built: surgeon experience + advanced digital systems.


4. Sterilization and Safety – The Foundation of Everything

High technology means nothing without strict sterilization protocols. In a dental tourism setting, this is even more critical, because you are undergoing treatment in another country.

In our clinic:

All instruments are autoclaved according to international standards.

Single-use disposables are used whenever possible (needles, suction tips, surgical drapes, suture packs).

Implant surgeries and extractions are performed in a dedicated surgical room with controlled workflow.

CBCT and intraoral scanners are disinfected between every patient with appropriate medical-grade solutions.

Sterilization and maintenance protocols are documented, logged and audited regularly.

Dr. Direnç Ulaşan, as an oral & maxillofacial surgeon, is particularly strict about asepsis in implantology, bone grafting and sinus lift procedures. This level of discipline significantly reduces the risk of infection and implant failure.


5. Why Choose a Clinic with CBCT, Guided Surgery and Full Digital Workflow in Turkey?

Choosing a clinic with CBCT Turkey, guided implant surgery Turkey and digital dentistry Turkey is not about luxury – it is about safety, precision and long-term success.
