Root canal treatment in Luviacure

About the clinic

Root canal treatment at Luviacure in Istanbul provides an effective way to save a damaged tooth from extraction. This endodontic therapy is performed in JCI-accredited partner hospitals to meet international safety standards. Patients benefit from Turkish medical expertise while receiving a 12-month aftercare plan managed directly from the UK.

The Treatment Process

The procedure helps repair teeth where the internal pulp is infected or inflamed. Doctors follow a clear three-stage process to restore dental health:

Initial Assessment: Detailed radiography and a dental exam determine the extent of the infection.
Cleaning: The dentist numbs the area, removes the inflamed pulp, and disinfects the canal.
Sealing: The pulp cavity and canals are filled up to the root tip to prevent new infections.

A typical session lasts between 30 and 60 minutes. Complex cases may take up to 90 minutes. Depending on the infection level, patients may need between one and three visits to complete the work.

Comfort and Recovery

The clinic uses local anesthesia or sedation to make the procedure pain-free. Most patients can return to work the very next day. While temporary sensitivity may last for two or three days, this is manageable. Patients should avoid chewing on the treated tooth or eating extremely hot or cold foods until the final filling is in place. With good oral hygiene and proper restoration, a root canal can last a lifetime.

Care in Istanbul with UK Protection

Luviacure is a UK-registered company that follows English law for its contracts. This gives patients legal protection and the convenience of paying into a UK bank account. The clinic organizes travel details so patients can focus on their recovery. This includes stays in 5-star hotels and private transfers between the airport, hotel, and dental facility.

Quality Standards

The partner hospitals hold an International Health Tourism Certificate from the Turkish Ministry of Health. This certification confirms that the facilities follow strict rules for treating international guests. By choosing this path, patients access high-quality dental care at more affordable rates than private clinics in the UK. After returning home, patients receive a full year of UK-managed follow-up support. You can leave a request on Bookimed to learn more about starting your treatment.

Luviacure: more details about the clinic

United Kingdom, London

Luviacure is a UK-registered medical tourism provider established in 1983. The company connects international patients with elective care in Turkey. It has a consultation office in London and coordinates treatments across Istanbul, Ankara, and Antalya.

Accreditations and Institutional Standards

Luviacure arranges surgical procedures only within JCI-accredited hospitals in Istanbul. Partner facilities include Academic Hospital, Medical Park Maltepe, and Çamlıca Medicana Hospital. This ensures surgery takes place in settings that meet international safety standards.

The company holds the International Health Tourism Certificate from the Turkish Ministry of Health. This certifies its legal authority to coordinate cross-border medical services. For patient security, Luviacure uses English law contracts and processes payments through UK bank accounts.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery

The surgical team includes nine doctors. Notable specialists are Prof. Dr. Nazım and Prof. Dr. Tahsin, who trained at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York. The department covers a broad range of aesthetic and functional procedures:

Rhinoplasty – includes a structured recovery plan with one week of initial rest.
Facelift – offers the Deep Plane Facelift technique for advanced facial rejuvenation.
Gynecomastia treatment – permanent surgical removal of excess male breast tissue and fat.
Breast reduction and augmentation – focused on restoring body proportions and symmetry.
Body contouring – includes liposuction and tummy tuck procedures in sterile settings.

Specialists use specialized needles during gynecomastia recovery to reduce postoperative swelling. Most patients can return to daily routines about seven days after surgery.

Aesthetic Dentistry

The dental department provides restorative and cosmetic treatments for long-term oral health. Restorative cases like dental crowns involve X-rays, temporary fits, and multiple appointments. Major procedures include:

Dental Implants – high-quality titanium posts that permanently replace missing teeth.
Porcelain and E-Max Veneers – thin shells applied with special adhesives to correct tooth shape.
Laser Teeth Whitening – provides 3 to 4 shades of whitening in 30–60 minutes.
Root Canal Treatment – performed under local anesthesia or sedation across three stages.

Veneer treatments typically take five to seven days in Turkey. After dental surgery, patients can usually return to work the next day.

Aesthetic Medicine and Cosmetology

For patients seeking non-surgical options, the clinic offers several injectable and skin-refining treatments. These work as alternatives or additions to surgery:

Facial PRP – uses the patient's own platelets to stimulate collagen and skin repair.
Hyaluronic acid fillers – treats volume loss and deep lines in the face and lips.
Botox injections – reduces wrinkles by temporarily relaxing specific facial muscles.
Radiofrequency therapy – uses heat energy to tighten skin without incisions.

Each non-surgical plan begins with a photo and video pre-assessment by the medical team.

Services for International Patients

Luviacure provides a 12-month aftercare program managed by a UK-based coordination team. This includes scheduled check-in calls and remote guidance through a dedicated support panel. Patients get direct access to a coordinator after returning home to track recovery milestones. The service package includes:

Accommodation in five-star chain hotels during treatment.
Private airport and clinic transfers for all scheduled appointments.
English-speaking assistants and professional interpreters available on request.
Free 30-minute online consultations via phone or Skype for initial assessment.

Candidacy for any procedure is determined through a transparent pre-assessment of patient photos.

I had a mummy makeover with Luviacure Medical, and my experience was exceptional from start to finish. The customer service was excellent throughout the entire process. I never felt pressured or rushed into making any decisions, and every question or concern I had was answered quickly, professionally, and efficiently. All patient transfers were punctual, comfortable, and of a very high standard. The hotel was excellent, and the hospital facilities were outstanding, making the whole experience as smooth and stress-free as possible. My surgeon, Dr. Can Ilker, deserves special recognition. I genuinely believe he is a miracle worker. From my first consultation, he inspired confidence with his professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail. The results of my surgery have exceeded all of my expectations and have truly changed my life for the better. Not only am I thrilled with my physical results, but I also feel so much more confident and comfortable in myself. I will always be grateful for the skill and care he showed throughout my journey. A special mention also goes to Ulas, my patient representative, who was reassuring, friendly, and always available whenever I needed support or advice. In my opinion, he was indispensable and played a huge part in making the entire experience so positive. I cannot recommend Luviacure Medical highly enough. The level of care, professionalism, and support I received from everyone involved was outstanding, and the results have genuinely been life-changing.

I recently had breast reduction surgery and overall I’ve had a really positive experience. Communication throughout the whole process was great, and Ulas was absolutely amazing — so supportive, professional, and fantastic at keeping me informed and reassured the entire time. The doctor was absolutely amazing and guided me through everything from start to finish. I’m honestly so happy with the results and absolutely made up with the work that’s been done Although the hospital itself felt quite dated, the care from the nurses was fantastic and they really looked after me well throughout my stay. I did need some wound care once I returned home, and I felt this was another downside as support was only available over the phone rather than in person. However, this didn’t affect my healing and everything recovered well. Obviously, I understood the risks that can come with having surgery abroad and not always being able to access immediate in-person aftercare support back home. Overall, despite a couple of downsides, I’m very happy with my experience and results. As a young mum wanting to feel like herself again, this has definitely achieved that. I would me mindful that addiotnal money is more than likley needed as both me and my partner needed add ons.

I contacted Luviacure as I required removal of my old implants, a breast uplift, and new implants. Communication throughout was excellent – responses to any questions or queries were always quick, clear, and efficient. No question ever felt too big or too small, which was very reassuring. Ulas (our Turkish contact) reached out a few weeks before our departure to introduce himself, and he was fantastic from start to finish. He made what could have been a very nerve-wracking experience feel much more manageable. He guided me through each day, regularly checking in to make sure I was okay, being present at the hospital, organising and collecting medication, confirming transfers, and always being available if I had any concerns – no matter the time of day. He is a real asset to the Luviacure team – thank you, Ulas 😊 The hotel provided was 5-star and absolutely lovely, which really helped make the overall experience more comfortable and relaxing during recovery. I am now 3 weeks post-surgery and so far, I am very pleased with the outcome. The reason for giving 4 stars rather than 5 is due to the hospital experience. The hospital itself felt quite dated, and in comparison to the care I received when I previously had implants done privately in the UK, the level of care felt lower. I did make the Luviacare team aware of my feelings towards the hospital & they advised that they have since changed hospitals. I also felt slightly rushed when meeting the surgeon – I didn’t feel I had enough time to fully discuss my expectations, understand what was realistically achievable, or have the procedure clearly explained beforehand. That said, the surgeon appears to have done an excellent job, and I am very happy with the results so far.

Overall an amazing experience. Ulas my interpreter/PA was amazing. My surgeon , Can Ilker Demir, is really skilled and has made my dreams come true. The hotel was amazing and staff helpful. I was able to get my extra long , vivid hair washed and dried while I was recuperating at the hotel. The hospital was clean but very outdated equipment and short on staff . Communication with nurses in the evenings was a bit hit and miss with the language barrier. The food was not palatable. The transfer taxis were a bit grim - all a bit run down and stinking of smoke. I will 100% use Luviacure for my next procedure as they were overall excellent and my results speak for themselves.

The best decision I could have made. I went to Istanbul through Luviacure, and it was a great decision. I had several treatments, and everything went smoothly. Ulas, who was assigned to us as a Luviacure consultant, was exceptional. He was friendly, always available to answer any questions you might have, and responded promptly. The hotel/clinic transfers and the transfer to the clinic were well-organized. Highly recommended.
