Dental Treatments
Majority of dentists offer excellent dental care in Turkey at very affordable prices compared to European countries therefore Turkey is the one of the most populer dental holiday destination in the world.
The Dental clinics are home to some of the most sophisticated dental technology available worldwide and are staffed with fully qualified Dental Technicians of exemplary experience.
You can fly direct from London to Istanbul in just under four hours. It may not be as close to the UK as other popular dental tourism destinations like Poland, Hungary and Spain, but Turkey is still convenient to reach for dental patients from all over Europe.

Turkey has a lot to offer in terms of history, culture, shopping and beaches, so many dental patients choose to extend their trip into a dental holiday and make the most of their time in the country.
Many of the best dental clinics in Turkey are located in Istanbul, which is a popular tourist destination in its own right. For visitors heading to the beach to enjoy the Mediterranean climate, there are also clinics in the south-coast city of Antalya and other coastal resort towns.
The growth of dental tourism in Turkey is not just down to price; the industry also relies on its dentists maintaining high standards to ensure a good reputation. Over half a million tourists visit the country each year for medical treatment including dental work and cosmetic surgery.

Dental Implants in Turkey
Dental veneers are wafer-thin, custom-made shells of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front surface of teeth to improve your appearance. These shells are bonded to the front of the teeth changing their color, shape, size, or length.
Veneers generally last between 7 and 15 years. After this time, the veneers would need to be replaced.
If you don’t need implants but do want a straighter or whiter smile, veneer prices in Turkey make them much more affordable than in the UK. Getting veneers in Turkey usually only requires one visit, but if your veneers are being made in a lab (as is the case with porcelain veneers) you’ll need to wait while this is done. This can take anything from a couple of days to a week or more depending on where they are made.

Teeth whitening in Turkey
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic procedure that is used to make the surface of the teeth appear whiter. Although teeth whitening cannot turn the teeth brilliant white, it can be a very effective way of lightening the existing color, without causing any damage to the tooth’s surface.
The effects of teeth whitening are not permanent and can last anywhere from a few months to three years. The amount of time the effects last for varies between individuals, but, in general, the effects do not last as long if a person stains their teeth through smoking or drinking tea, coffee or red wine, for example.
Laser teeth whitening, also known as “laser bleaching” or “power whitening”, uses lasers to accelerate the bleaching effect of a concentrated gel applied to the teeth.
The cost of teeth whitening in Turkey means you could save hundreds of pounds on professional in-clinic treatment. However, the savings probably aren’t big enough to justify a trip for teeth whitening alone. If you’re on holiday in Turkey anyway, it’s certainly worth looking into.
Other Treatments
Although there is a big market for cosmetic dentistry in Turkey, people also come for less glamorous treatments including:
- Tooth fillings & Root Canal Treatment
- Hollywood Smile
- Crowns
- Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF)
- Tooth Cleaning
- Laser teeth whitening
- Pediatric Dentistry
- Sinus Lift Operation
- Dentures
- Bridges
- Extractions
Prices are cheaper than private care in the UK for pretty much every treatment so it’s worth getting all the work you need while you have the chance.
