One Day Clinic (O.D.C.)
At Metropolitan Hospital, the majority of oral and dental restorations are completed in a single day within the One Day Clinic.
- The surgical phase of treatment plans is completed, including periodontal surgery, tooth extractions, implant placements, and maxillofacial procedures
- Temporary prosthetic restorations—fully functional and aesthetic—are placed for approximately three months until osseointegration of the implants is complete, at which point the final prosthetic restoration is delivered
Treatment in the One Day Clinic is performed under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation, using specialized surgical chairs.
Advantages of One Day Clinic:
- Patients complete 90% of their treatment plan in a very short time.
- Patients are never left without temporary restorations, allowing them to continue their professional and social activities immediately.
- The procedure is completely painless, overcoming psychological barriers such as fear or cooperation issues with the dentist.
Dental Clinic – Dental Laboratory
Within the Dental Clinic, Metropolitan Hospital has developed a modern, fully equipped dental laboratory.
The simultaneous operation of the laboratory and clinic maximizes therapeutic and aesthetic results while eliminating waiting times. The laboratory is staffed by fully trained dental technicians.
Periodontology and Implants
Following the principles of modern medical and dental science, Metropolitan Hospital has developed the Periodontology, Implantology, and Prosthetic Rehabilitation Clinic to meet patient needs and provide scientifically excellent services under optimal conditions. All dental cases are treated, and patients are fully informed about prevention methods and techniques. Lifelong preventive dental programs are offered to maintain oral health and prevent future dental problems.
The clinic is staffed by highly trained professionals experienced in the prevention and treatment of diseases affecting the teeth.
The in-house dental laboratory allows patients to receive immediate service during treatment, eliminating delays and minimizing disruption to their professional or personal life.
It is worth mentioning that the main causes of tooth loss are caries and periodontal diseases (gingivitis and periodontitis), both of which are preventable if patients are educated on preventive measures and maintain regular dental check-ups for early diagnosis.
The clinic provides scientific therapeutic interventions designed to preserve affected teeth for long-term or lifetime duration.
Key Questions – Answers
- Periodontology: The branch of dentistry focused on preventing and treating diseases of the periodontium. This includes the gums and supporting bone around the teeth. Periodontology ensures the maintenance of oral health through treatment and prevention.
- Implants: Osseointegrated implants replace lost teeth in fully or partially edentulous patients. They are applied with scientifically validated techniques and improve mastication, speech, and aesthetic appearance.
Prosthetic Rehabilitation
Many patients have lost multiple teeth due to periodontal diseases, often requiring complete or partial dentures, which can compromise speech, chewing, and aesthetics.
Modern periodontology and implantology allow patients to receive fixed prosthetic restorations, achieving improved aesthetics, speech, and function.
Additional Services
- Full dental care for patients who request it.
- Collaboration with other Metropolitan Hospital departments allows treatment of patients whose dental care is impacted by general health conditions (allergies, heart disease, diabetes, cancer, etc.).
- The One Day Clinic addresses patients with difficulty approaching or cooperating with the dentist, as well as those with busy professional or social schedules, using general anesthesia when necessary.
Metropolitan Hospital also supports private dentists, providing scientific guidance and resources for safe patient management.
Preventive and Maintenance Program
After treatment, patients are enrolled in an electronic long-term monitoring program for follow-up and assessment. ΤFollow-up intervals are determined by the treating dentist based on patient needs.
Modern family-oriented preventive programs are applied to ensure patients enjoy optimal oral health at minimal cost.
