Dental treatment in Turkey: what you should know
Turkey is one of the most popular countries in the world for dental work abroad. Every year, large numbers of patients from the UK, Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands and the Gulf travel to Istanbul, Antalya and Izmir for crowns, veneers, dental implants and full-mouth restorations. The main reason is the price: in Turkey, most dental treatments cost a fraction of private prices in the UK, Germany or the United States, and a whole set of crowns or veneers can often be finished in one trip of about a week.
Dental care in Turkey also has a reputation problem. In the UK, "Turkey teeth" has become a byword for very white, bulky crowns placed on healthy teeth that were filed down to small stumps — work that cannot be undone and that sometimes causes pain, nerve damage and expensive repairs years later. Both pictures are true: Turkey has many well-trained dentists and modern clinics, and it also has clinics that sell aggressive treatment quickly and cheaply. The difference lies in the treatment plan, the clinic and the dentist, not in the country.
This guide explains what dental treatment in Turkey really costs, what Turkey teeth are and how to avoid the problems behind the headlines, when veneers, crowns, bonding or implants are the right choice, how to check a clinic, how many days you need and how aftercare works when you are back home. The clinics and hospitals on our site, their prices and real patient reviews are shown on this page; every quote is free, and you decide only after a dentist has reviewed your X-ray and photos.

How much does dental treatment in Turkey cost?
The price list on this page shows the starting prices of every dental treatment the clinics on our site list. The table below compares common treatments with typical private prices in other countries. Turkish prices are clinic prices for international patients, per tooth unless stated; the other prices are approximate private fees and vary widely between practices and cities.
| Treatment | Turkey | United Kingdom | United States | Germany |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Zirconia crown | from €210 | about £600–£1,200 | about $1,000–$2,500 | about €600–€1,200 |
| Porcelain / E-max veneer | from €380 | about £700–£1,200 | about $1,000–$2,500 | about €700–€1,500 |
| Composite bonding | from €100 | about £150–£400 | about $300–$600 | about €150–€400 |
| Laser teeth whitening (both arches) | from €260 | about £300–£700 | about $500–$1,000 | about €300–€600 |
| Single dental implant with crown | price on request | about £2,000–£3,000 | about $3,000–$5,000 | about €2,000–€3,500 |
| All-on-4, one arch | price on request | about £10,000–£16,000 | about $15,000–$25,000 | about €10,000–€18,000 |
For dental implants and All-on-4 the clinics on our site give a personal price after seeing your panoramic X-ray or CT scan, because the cost depends on the number of implants, the implant brand, whether bone grafting is needed and the material of the final bridge. What changes the price of any dental plan:
- The number of teeth: a full smile usually means 16–20 upper and lower teeth, so the price per tooth matters less than the total.
- The material: composite is cheaper than porcelain; E-max and layered zirconia cost more than monolithic zirconia or metal-ceramic.
- Preparatory work: fillings, root canal treatment, gum treatment, extractions or bone grafting add to the bill and to the time.
- Implant brand: premium Swiss, Swedish or US systems cost more than Korean or Turkish ones; all should come with a card naming the brand.
- The dentist: a prosthodontist or oral surgeon with long experience charges more than a general dentist.
Why is dental work cheaper in Turkey?
Salaries, rent and laboratory costs in Turkey are much lower than in Western Europe or the US, the lira makes treatment cheaper for patients paying in pounds, euros or dollars, and many clinics have their own dental laboratory, which shortens the time and lowers the cost of crowns and veneers. A price far below the usual range is still a warning sign: it can mean cheap materials, an inexperienced dentist or a plan that files down more teeth than necessary.
What are Turkey teeth, and why do some go wrong?
"Turkey teeth" is a UK nickname, not a treatment. It usually describes a full set of crowns — sometimes sold as "veneers" — placed on most of the upper and lower teeth to create a very white, even smile. A true veneer is a thin shell bonded to the front of a tooth after little or no enamel is removed. A crown covers the whole tooth, and to make room for it the dentist removes a large part of the tooth on every side. When healthy teeth are reduced to small pegs only to make them whiter or straighter, the patient has lost tooth structure that never grows back.
That is the story behind most Turkey teeth gone wrong. Heavily filed teeth can become sensitive, the nerve can die and need root canal treatment, crowns that do not fit the gum line well cause bleeding and gum disease, and a new bite that was built too quickly can lead to jaw pain or broken crowns. Over-sized, very opaque white teeth can also look unnatural. None of these problems is specific to Turkey — they come from over-treatment and haste, and they happen wherever teeth are prepared aggressively.
How to avoid it:
- ask for the least invasive option that will reach your goal — often whitening, composite bonding, aligners or thin porcelain veneers rather than crowns;
- ask the dentist to explain, tooth by tooth, why each crown is needed and how much tooth will be removed;
- be wary of plans that crown every tooth when your own teeth are healthy;
- choose a natural shade and shape that suits your face; a digital smile design or a temporary trial smile lets you see the result before teeth are prepared;
- never let treatment of gum disease or decay be skipped to save time.
Veneers or crowns? Composite or porcelain?
Many patients ask for veneers in Turkey and are offered crowns, or the other way round. Each has its place:
| Option | How much tooth is removed | Typical lifespan | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Composite bonding / composite veneers | None or very little | About 4–8 years, can stain | Small chips, gaps, uneven edges; reversible and repairable |
| Porcelain / E-max veneers | Thin layer of enamel at the front, usually under 1 mm | About 10–15 years or more | Colour and shape changes of front teeth that are healthy |
| Zirconia crowns | All sides of the tooth | About 10–15 years or more | Teeth with large fillings, root canal treatment, cracks or heavy wear |
Porcelain veneers look natural and resist stains, but they are permanent: once enamel is removed, the tooth always needs a covering. Composite is cheaper and kinder to the teeth, but needs polishing and repairs. Crowns are stronger and are the right choice for weakened teeth — not for healthy teeth that only need a lighter colour. Other options on the site include zirconia veneers, ultra-thin Lumineers and crowns and bridges to replace a missing tooth.
Dental implants in Turkey and All-on-4
Dental implants in Turkey are the most searched dental treatment after Turkey teeth. An implant is a titanium screw placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth; after it has fused with the bone, a crown or bridge is fixed on top. Most clinics place the implants on a first trip, let the bone heal for about three to six months, and fit the final crowns on a second trip. If the bone is too thin, a bone graft or a sinus lift may be needed first, which adds time.
For patients who have lost most or all of their teeth, full mouth dental implants replace a whole arch with a fixed bridge on a few implants:
- All-on-4 dental implants — four implants per arch, the back two angled to avoid the sinus or nerve, often with fixed temporary teeth within a few days (immediate All-on-4);
- All-on-6 — six implants per arch, spreading the biting forces further, for example with a full-arch zirconia bridge;
- implant-supported dentures — a removable option that clips on to two to four implants.
The implants on our site do not yet have a fixed hospital price, because the cost depends on your X-ray: prices for implants and All-on-4 are given on request after a dentist has seen your scan. Ask which implant brand will be used, whether the price covers the abutments, the temporary and the final bridge, and what the final bridge is made of (acrylic, composite or zirconia). Smokers and people with uncontrolled diabetes or active gum disease have a higher risk of implant failure and need treatment or a change of habits first.
Hollywood smile and smile makeover
A Hollywood smile is a cosmetic package that changes the colour and shape of the visible teeth, usually with 16–20 veneers or crowns on the upper and lower front and side teeth; packages start from €2,610 at the clinics on our site. A smile makeover is the wider term and can combine whitening, bonding, gum contouring, aligners and veneers. A good clinic starts with digital smile design — photos and scans that show the planned result — and checks the gums and bite first. If your own teeth are healthy, ask whether whitening and bonding, or porcelain veneers on the front teeth only, would reach your goal before agreeing to a full set of crowns.
Simpler treatments also bring many patients to Turkey: laser teeth whitening from €260, composite bonding from €100 per tooth, professional cleaning, root canal treatment and orthodontics with Invisalign or clear aligners. Teeth whitening in Turkey takes about an hour and can be done in a day; it does not change the colour of existing crowns, veneers or fillings.
Dental packages in Turkey: what is included
Most clinics sell dental work for international patients as a package. A typical package includes:
- the consultation, a panoramic X-ray and, for implants, a CT scan;
- the treatment and the laboratory work agreed in the written plan;
- temporary teeth while the final crowns or veneers are made;
- VIP transfers between the airport, the hotel and the clinic;
- hotel nights for the treatment days, often with breakfast;
- an interpreter or patient coordinator.
Flights, a second trip for implants, extra nights, additional treatment found at the first examination (fillings, root canals, extractions, bone grafts) and repairs after you return are usually not included. Ask for a written plan listing every tooth, the material, the implant brand and the total price before you travel, and be wary of a package price given without an X-ray.
Is dental treatment in Turkey safe?
Dental treatment in Turkey is as safe as the clinic and the dentist you choose. Dentists in Turkey complete a five-year university degree and must be registered with the Turkish Dental Association through their regional chamber; specialists in prosthodontics, periodontology, oral surgery or orthodontics complete further training. Dental clinics and oral health centres need a Ministry of Health licence, and clinics that treat foreign patients need an additional health tourism authorisation. Some private hospitals with dental departments are accredited by Joint Commission International (JCI).
Is it safe to have dental implants in Turkey? For a healthy patient treated by an experienced implant dentist or oral surgeon, with a proper CT scan, a recognised implant brand and enough healing time, implants in Turkey work the same way as anywhere else. The risks rise with rushed plans: implants placed without enough bone, final bridges fitted before the implants have healed, and no follow-up after you fly home.
How to choose a dental clinic in Turkey
There is no single best dental clinic in Turkey for everyone, but there are clear criteria:
- A licensed clinic with a named dentist: ask for the full name of the dentist who will treat you, their specialty and their registration, and the clinic's Ministry of Health licence and health tourism authorisation.
- A diagnosis before a price: a serious clinic asks for a recent panoramic X-ray and photos, examines your gums and bite on the first day, and may change the plan after the examination — and explains why.
- A conservative plan: the dentist should offer the least invasive option that reaches your goal and tell you what is not possible.
- Named materials and brands: the plan lists the material of every crown or veneer and the implant system, and you receive an implant card.
- Enough time: a realistic schedule with a try-in before final cementation, not a full mouth in two days.
- Real reviews and before-and-after photos that show the gums close up and were taken months after treatment.
- A written guarantee and aftercare plan that says what happens if a crown breaks or an implant fails after you return.
Red flags: a price for "a full set of teeth" without an X-ray, crowns proposed for every healthy tooth, no named dentist, pressure to decide on the day, and a plan that skips gum treatment. Compare the clinics and hospitals on our site with their licences and reviews.
Risks of dental work abroad and who should wait
Every dental treatment carries risks wherever it is done: sensitivity, pain and swelling after preparation or surgery, infection, nerve damage that needs root canal treatment, crowns or veneers that chip, debond or do not fit well at the gum line, bite problems and, for implants, failure to integrate, nerve injury or sinus problems. Most of these are uncommon and treatable when the plan is careful, the work is not rushed and follow-up is arranged.
Wait or treat the underlying problem first if you:
- have active gum disease — it has to be treated and under control before crowns, veneers or implants, otherwise the gums recede and the new teeth fail early;
- have untreated decay or infection;
- smoke heavily and cannot stop around implant surgery;
- have uncontrolled diabetes, take bisphosphonate medication or have had radiotherapy to the jaw — discuss implants with your doctor first;
- grind your teeth heavily without wearing a night guard;
- are pregnant (elective treatment and X-rays are usually postponed);
- cannot stay for the full schedule or come back for a second trip.
If you are anxious, many clinics offer treatment with sedation; most procedures are done under local anaesthesia and are not painful during treatment.
How many days do you need in Turkey for dental work?
The time depends on the treatment, the number of teeth and the laboratory. Your dentist confirms the schedule after the first examination.
| Treatment | Time in Turkey | Number of trips |
|---|---|---|
| Teeth whitening, cleaning, bonding | 1–3 days | 1 |
| Porcelain veneers or crowns, full smile | 5–8 days | 1 |
| Hollywood smile | 6–8 days | 1 |
| Single dental implants | 3–5 days, then 5–7 days | 2, about 3–6 months apart |
| All-on-4 / All-on-6 with temporary teeth | 5–7 days, then 5–7 days | 2, about 3–6 months apart |
| Bone graft or sinus lift before implants | 3–5 days, then implant trips | Usually 3 |
Most patients can fly the day after routine dental work. After implant surgery, a sinus lift or extractions, ask your surgeon when you can fly; pressure changes and swelling can be uncomfortable in the first days. Plan a few spare days for a try-in and adjustments.
How long do Turkey teeth last, and what guarantees do clinics give?
How long do Turkey teeth last? Well-made zirconia crowns and porcelain veneers usually last ten to fifteen years or longer with good care; composite bonding lasts about four to eight years before it needs polishing, repair or replacement. Implants themselves can last for decades, while the crowns or bridges on them may need renewing. No crown or veneer lasts forever, so the real question is what happens to the tooth underneath: a veneer or crown on a tooth that kept most of its structure can be replaced, while a tooth filed to a stump may later need a root canal, a post or an implant.
Many clinics give a written guarantee — commonly several years on crowns and veneers and longer on implants from major brands. Read the conditions: a guarantee usually covers only repair or replacement at the clinic in Turkey, often not your flights or hotel, and it may require yearly check-ups and a night guard if you grind your teeth.
Aftercare at home: will your local dentist help?
Aftercare decides how long your new teeth last. Clean carefully around crowns, veneers and implants, use interdental brushes or a water flosser, wear a night guard if you grind, and see a dentist and hygienist at least once or twice a year. Ask the clinic for your treatment notes, X-rays, the materials used and the implant card, and give copies to your dentist at home.
Will UK dentists work on Turkey teeth? Yes — any dentist can examine, clean, repair or replace work done abroad, but private fees apply for repairs and replacement crowns, and NHS dentists treat urgent problems but do not redo cosmetic work done privately abroad. Register with a local practice before you travel, so you have somewhere to go if a crown comes loose or a tooth becomes painful after you return.
Costs beyond the treatment, insurance and payment
- Not usually included: flights, a second trip for implants, extra nights, additional treatment found at the examination and repairs at home.
- Insurance: ordinary travel insurance does not cover planned dental treatment. Specialist medical-travel insurance that covers complications and a longer stay is available; UK dental plans rarely cover treatment abroad.
- Visa: many nationalities can enter Turkey visa-free or with an e-Visa for short stays; check the current rules for your passport.
- Payment: at the clinics on our site you pay the clinic directly, usually on arrival or per treatment stage; requesting a quote costs nothing.

Dental Treatments in Turkey reviews
Reviews of the hospitals and surgeons on this page that perform Dental Treatments, with reviews about this treatment first. Reviews from Google are marked.
I cannot thank Dr. Servet and his team from the Cardiology Department enough for their support and for their patience and dedication throughout my mother's treatment. I sincerely wish you continued success and that you continue to heal our patients.
Only selected 1 star because 0 isn't available. A family member of mine went into surgery in this "hospital", thinking it's a prestigious medical facility, turns out they have the worst patient treatment that our family member has ever experienced. All of the staff lacked adequate attention and supervision to a patient freshly out of a risky surgery, even if the nurses are called to the room, no one shows up or answers, let's not mention the other "staff"... either way if you care about the health of your loved ones, don't consider this place. 0/10
We would like to express our sincere gratitude for the care, friendliness, and professionalism you showed us throughout our treatment and care process at your hospital. We especially thank Ms. Leyla and her valuable team for their close attention, support, and unwavering support from beginning to end. Thanks to your care and expertise, we overcame this challenging period much more easily and peacefully. Thank you.
I was only there briefly because I was unfortunately bitten by a stray cat. Since only private clinics in Turkey are apparently authorized to administer rabies vaccinations, I went to the emergency room for an initial assessment. Despite my short stay, the emergency room doctor took a lot of time for me, calmly explained everything, provided thorough information, and, most importantly, reassured me. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Even though the treatment was probably brief for the hospital, it felt very important to me at that moment – and the doctor really did take the necessary time. Furthermore, I didn't have to pay anything for the consultation and examination. Many thanks to the kind doctor and all the friendly staff! Despite the unpleasant situation, I felt very well cared for.
What can you say about the hospital that ruined my mother's life for two and a half months and then handed her over to us in her corpse?... She only needed intensive care, no treatment needed... she only needed care... They did the worst they could, they handed my mother over to us in a terrible state, her body... What can be said?... May they get what they deserve.
I am extremely grateful to Dr. Ahmed Fazli for the excellent care and treatment he provided to my son. My son had three fractures in his hand, and as a parent, it was a very stressful and frightening situation for us. Dr. Fazli handled the operation with great professionalism, care, and confidence. He explained the situation clearly, answered all our questions, and made us feel that our son was in safe hands throughout the entire process. The operation went very well, and we are very happy with my son's recovery. His expertise, calm approach, and genuine concern for his patients gave our family great confidence during a difficult time. I sincerely thank Dr. Mohammad Fazli for his dedication and excellent work. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled, caring, and trustworthy orthopedic doctor.

Frequently asked questions
'Turkey teeth' is a UK nickname for a full set of crowns or veneers done in Turkey to create a bright, even smile. The term is often used for crowns placed on healthy teeth after they were filed down heavily. Done conservatively — with veneers or bonding where possible and crowns only where needed — the work is no different from cosmetic dentistry anywhere.
It depends on the number of teeth and the material. At the clinics on our site, zirconia crowns start from about €210 and porcelain or E-max veneers from about €380 per tooth, and Hollywood smile packages from about €2,600. A full smile usually needs 16–20 teeth. The live price list on this page shows all starting prices in your currency.
The price list on this page can be shown in pounds. As a rough guide, a full set of 20 zirconia crowns or porcelain veneers in Turkey costs a fraction of UK private prices, where a single crown or veneer often costs £600–£1,200. Ask for a written quote listing every tooth before you travel.
Usually zirconia (a strong white ceramic), E-max (lithium disilicate glass-ceramic), other porcelains or composite resin. Zirconia is used mainly for crowns and bridges, E-max for veneers and front crowns, and composite for bonding and composite veneers.
Well-made zirconia crowns and porcelain veneers usually last ten to fifteen years or longer with good care; composite bonding about four to eight years. Implants can last for decades, while the crowns on them may need renewing.
No. Crowns and veneers eventually need replacement, wherever they are made. Because the natural teeth underneath have been prepared, you will always need a covering on them — which is why keeping as much tooth as possible matters.
They are safe when a licensed clinic and an experienced dentist plan treatment conservatively, treat gum disease and decay first and allow enough time. Problems usually come from crowning healthy teeth, rushed work and no aftercare.
Mostly because healthy teeth were filed down heavily for crowns, gum disease was not treated first, crowns did not fit well at the gum line or the work was rushed. These lead to sensitivity, nerve damage, gum problems and broken crowns.
Veneers — composite or porcelain — are the first choice for healthy front teeth that need a new colour or shape, because they remove little or no tooth. Crowns are right for teeth that are already weakened by large fillings, root canal treatment or cracks.
Not until it is treated. Gum disease must be under control before crowns, veneers or implants; otherwise the gums recede, the edges of the crowns show and the work fails early. A good clinic examines your gums first.
Yes, for a healthy patient treated by an experienced implant dentist or oral surgeon, with a CT scan, a recognised implant brand and enough healing time between surgery and the final teeth. Ask for the brand and an implant card.
Full mouth dental implants such as All-on-4 or All-on-6 are priced individually after the clinic has seen your panoramic X-ray or CT scan, because the cost depends on the number of implants, the brand, any bone grafting and the material of the bridge. The clinics on our site give these prices on request.
One to three days for whitening or bonding, about five to eight days for a full set of veneers or crowns, and two trips of about a week each, three to six months apart, for implants and All-on-4.
Most treatment is done under local anaesthesia and is not painful during the procedure. Sensitivity and soreness for a few days afterwards are normal; for implant surgery or anxious patients, sedation is available.
Laser teeth whitening starts from about €260 for both arches at the clinics on our site. It takes about an hour and does not change the colour of existing crowns, veneers or fillings.
Yes. Any dentist can examine, clean, repair or replace work done abroad, but private fees apply. NHS dentists treat urgent problems but do not redo cosmetic work done privately abroad, so register with a local practice before you travel.
Contact the clinic first — many solve minor issues by photo and video and repair or replace work under their guarantee in Turkey. For urgent pain or infection, see a local dentist. Take home your treatment notes, X-rays and implant card.
Many give a written guarantee of several years on crowns and veneers and longer on implants from major brands. It usually covers repair or replacement at the clinic, not flights or hotels, and may require yearly check-ups.
Clinics use international premium systems as well as Korean, Israeli and Turkish brands. Prices differ between brands; ask which system will be used, and make sure you receive an implant card with the brand and batch numbers.
