How many days do I need to stay?

Depends on the treatment. Aesthetic fillings 1 day, whitening 1‑2 days, crowns and veneers or a full smile makeover 5‑7 days. Implants work differently: the surgical visit takes 3‑5 days, the implant then heals for 2‑4 months (up to 6 in the upper jaw), and a second visit of 4‑7 days follows for the crown. Plan two trips for implants, not one.

Treatments

Are treatments painful?

The treatment itself is virtually painless: the area is fully numbed with modern local anaesthetic, and sedation is available for anxious patients. Mild soreness or swelling for a few days afterwards is normal, particularly after implant surgery, and is controlled with standard painkillers.

What is Digital Smile Design (DSD)?

DSD is a technology that analyses facial symmetry, tooth size and smile line to preview your new smile on a computer before treatment.

What is a dental implant?

A titanium screw placed in the jawbone to replace a missing tooth. After osseointegration, a crown is attached on top.

How long does implant treatment take?

Implant placement takes 1 day, osseointegration 2‑4 months (up to 6 in the upper jaw), and crown placement 1‑2 weeks.

How long do implants last?

With proper care, implants can last a lifetime. The crown may need replacement after 10‑15 years.

Can anyone get implants?

Most people can. Factors like bone density, diabetes, and smoking are evaluated during the initial exam.

Is there an infection risk?

Hygiene is one of our clinic's greatest strengths: every reusable instrument goes through class B autoclave sterilisation, single-use materials are standard, and antibiotic cover is provided whenever it is indicated. Thanks to these protocols infection is very rare in our practice. You also receive clear aftercare instructions, and our WhatsApp line stays open to you at any time after surgery.

Are materials international standard?

Yes, we use internationally recognised brands whose materials are CE-certified and FDA-cleared.

Prices & Guarantee

How do I find out the price?

Three ways: send 2 to 3 photos of your teeth on WhatsApp, fill in the contact form, or call +90 530 575 47 18. Add a panoramic X-ray if you have one. Dt. Mustafa Yunusoğlu reviews your case personally and you receive a written treatment plan with the exact price within 24 hours. It puts you under no obligation.

How are prices determined?

Prices vary with treatment type, complexity, material quality and the number of sessions. We quote per case, not from a list. Send photos of your teeth and your written quote arrives within 24 hours, so you know the exact figure before you travel.

What payment options are available?

We accept cash, credit card (instalments), and bank transfer. 3‑12 month instalment plans are available.

Is there a treatment guarantee?

Yes. Implants come with a 10-year guarantee; crowns and veneers come with a 5-year written guarantee. Ask for your guarantee certificate at your consultation.

Are the materials the same as in Europe?

Yes. We use the same international brands: Nobel Biocare and Straumann implants, IPS e.max and zirconia for crowns and veneers. Your written plan names the brand and material for each tooth, and you take the full record home.

Aftercare

Can there be pain after treatment?

Mild sensitivity or discomfort may occur after some treatments; this is normal and temporary. Painkillers are prescribed.

What if there's a problem after I return home?

You are never left on your own. Our WhatsApp line stays open 24/7 after you fly home, and we keep following your case remotely: send a few photos and Dt. Mustafa Yunusoğlu reviews them personally. Your treatment is covered by a written guarantee, 10 years on implants and 5 years on crowns and veneers, and you leave the clinic with your full treatment record, including materials, brands and X-rays, so any dentist in the world can act on it straight away. If an in-person check is needed we coordinate with a dentist near you, and if the issue falls under the guarantee we redo the work at our own cost during a return visit.

How do I brief my dentist at home after treatment in Turkey?

You take home your written treatment plan and the documentation of the work done, so your own dentist knows exactly what was placed and where. Routine check-ups and hygiene visits carry on at home as normal. If your dentist has a question about the treatment or the guarantee, forward it to us on WhatsApp at any hour and we answer it directly.

Can I fly after implant surgery or an extraction?

Implant visits are planned so that the flight home does not follow straight after surgery: the first visit is 3‑5 days and ends with a check-up before you travel. Whether you should fly on a given day depends on how the site is healing, so the dentist who treated you gives the final word. If a tooth is aching before a flight, get it seen first: cabin pressure can make an inflamed tooth much more painful in the air.
