Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in Antalya Smile Designs

Antalya Smile Designs is a private dental clinic in Antalya, Turkey. Established in 1989, it offers services from pediatric care to complex maxillofacial surgery. The clinic is known for aesthetic dentistry and complete smile reconstructions for international patients.

Aesthetic Dentistry and Smile Reconstruction

The clinic focuses on Hollywood Smile designs and full smile makeovers. Specialists use zirconium crowns, often in shades like BL1 or 0M3 for natural-looking results. In detailed cases, the team has performed full transformations using 22 zirconium crowns.

Restorative options include:

• Porcelain and zirconium crowns for durable tooth replacement
• Laminated veneers to correct aesthetic defects while preserving natural tooth structure
• Professional teeth whitening tailored to the patient's enamel shade
• Composite white fillings bonded chemically for a seamless look
• Inlay and onlay fillings for precise cavity repair

For composite fillings, the clinic uses halogen light to harden the resin. These restorations typically last 5–10 years with routine care and regular check-ups.

Dental Implantology and Oral Surgery

Antalya Smile Designs provides full-arch restoration through All-on-4 and All-on-6 implant systems. These allow complete teeth replacement using fewer implants, often topped with zirconium crowns. The surgical team uses computer-guided planning for precise placement.

The oral surgery department, led by Dr. Ergin Ozturk, manages several complex conditions:

• Surgical extraction of difficult or impacted teeth
• Treatment of jaw and jawbone diseases
• Management of Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) disorders
• Masseter Botox to treat teeth grinding and jaw tension
• Surgical care for diseases of the tongue, lips, and salivary glands

Dr. Helin Donat also provides specialized dental surgery services. Most procedures are performed under local anesthesia to reduce discomfort.

Periodontology and General Dental Care

The periodontology unit treats gum diseases like periodontitis and parodontosis. In early stages, specialists use non-surgical methods such as root surface cleaning and scaling. If gum disease progresses, the clinic performs gingival curettage to remove infected tissue from gum pockets.

After gum treatments, patients may have sensitivity for 5–7 days. Complete healing typically occurs within one week.

For general dental health, the clinic provides endodontic services, including root canal treatments. Experts evaluate each case to decide between saving a tooth or performing an extraction.

Advanced Diagnostic and Laboratory Technology

The clinic uses 3D Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) for high-resolution jaw imaging. This technology allows virtual surgery planning, especially for full-mouth implant cases. Other tools include panoramic X-rays and DIAGNOCam for early cavity detection without radiation.

Most prosthetics and crowns are produced in the clinic's own laboratory. This supports Digital Smile Design (DSD), where intraoral scanners capture precise digital impressions. The clinic works with recognized implant brands:

• Straumann
• Nobel Biocare
• Osstem
• Megagen
• Neodent

Services for International Patients

Antalya Smile Designs coordinates treatment for patients traveling from abroad. Upon arrival, the team defines the final plan and can often start treatment the same day. The clinic provides transfers between the airport, hotel, and facility for all appointments.

Patients receiving surgical care get detailed aftercare instructions. Staff support the logistics of a dental holiday, so recovery stays on track after surgery.
