Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) in Positive Dental Studio
About the clinic
Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) are small titanium screws used as fixed anchor points during orthodontic treatment at Positive Dental Studio in Istanbul, Turkey. The procedure for a mini screw typically costs around $90 and is performed by specialists at this ISO-accredited facility. This method allows for precise tooth movement by providing a stable base that does not shift.
The Role of Titanium Mini Screws
Positive Dental Studio uses TADs made of high-quality titanium. These devices are placed directly into the jawbone to act as a firm anchor. They help move specific teeth into the correct position without putting pressure on other teeth. By using these screws, the dentist can manage complex tooth alignments that traditional braces might not achieve alone. This helps protect the rest of your smile from unwanted movement during the correction process.
The Procedure and Patient Experience
The placement of a TAD is a quick and straightforward process. It happens during a short appointment at the Istanbul clinic. Key details of the treatment include:
- Local anesthetic is used to make the area numb and comfortable.
- Titanium material is used for the screw because it is safe for the body.
- Easy removal occurs once the teeth have reached their target positions.
- Minimal recovery time is needed after the short session.
Treatment at Positive Dental Studio
Positive Dental Studio holds ISO accreditation, which confirms they follow international standards for safety and care. The clinic focuses on efficient orthodontic solutions in a modern setting. Because the mini screws are temporary, they are removed without leaving lasting marks once the orthodontic goals are met. Patients can expect a clear plan for both the placement and the eventual removal of the device. If you are looking for precise dental alignment, you can leave a request on Bookimed to learn more.

Positive Dental Studio: more details about the clinic
Positive Dental Studio is a private multi-specialty dental clinic established in 2011. It operates two branches in Istanbul and Adana. Since opening, the studio has treated over 15,000 patients. The team includes more than 15 specialist dentists. They cover everything from routine cleanings to complex jaw surgeries.
Advanced Dental Specialties
The clinic offers a broad range of dental services through a digital workflow. Specialists use 3D imaging and Digital Smile Design to plan treatments accurately. The facility includes dedicated operating rooms and an observation area for procedures under general anesthesia.
The surgical department performs specialized oral and maxillofacial procedures:
- Orthognathic surgery to correct bite and jaw alignment issues
- Removal of salivary gland stones using local anesthesia or imaging-guided techniques
- Surgical removal of large cysts and tumors with laboratory tissue examination
- Torus surgery to remove bony growths under local anesthetic
- Open joint surgery for complex jaw conditions
Orthodontists join the planning phase for jaw surgeries to ensure proper alignment. For children, the clinic has a dedicated department focused on oral health from infancy through adolescence.
Implantology and Prosthetics
The clinic offers several implant-supported solutions for tooth replacement. Surgeons use surgical guides – patient-specific templates – to place implants at the exact depth and angle. This digital planning reduces risks and improves prosthetic fit.
Prosthetic options available at the branches include:
- All-on-Four fixed full-arch restoration using a titanium bar framework
- Implant-supported zirconia crowns shaped using digital impressions
- Permanent bar-retained prostheses for single-arch replacement
- Full porcelain Empress and E-max crowns for high aesthetic transparency
Patients receive Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) during preparation. This technology makes plaque visible, so cleaning is more precise before surgical stages begin.
Specialized Gum and Root Canal Care
For patients with gum disease, the clinic uses laser gum disinfection and biostimulation. These methods treat periodontitis by reducing bacteria without aggressive surgery. Scaling and root planing often combine with laser therapy to reach deep periodontal pockets.
Endodontic specialists handle complex root canal anatomy for both initial treatments and retreatments. The restorative team focuses on aesthetic bonding and veneers. They prioritize zirconia and full ceramic materials to match the natural color of existing teeth.
Diagnostic and Treatment Technology
The clinic uses digital tools to ensure diagnostic accuracy. CBCT scans provide high-resolution images of the jaw bone for implant planning. Cerec Omnicam technology replaces traditional molds with fast digital impressions.
Additional diagnostic equipment includes:
- DIAGNOCam for early detection of hidden cavities without X-ray radiation
- Panoramic (OPG) and periapical X-rays for baseline assessments
- Electronic axiography for studying jaw movement and joint function
- Florida Probe for computer-assisted measurement of gum health
The facility spans three floors designed for modern equipment and surgical units. Doctors also train other professionals through the clinic's internal academy.
Support for International Patients
The clinic has a dedicated support system for patients visiting from abroad. Staff communicate in English, German, Russian, Arabic, and Turkish. Online booking helps patients coordinate their visit timing.
For those undergoing orthodontic treatment, the clinic provides long-term aftercare instructions. This includes retainers to protect alignment after the active treatment phase ends.
