Advanced stone removal at Positive Dental Studio
Positive Dental Studio operates two branches in Istanbul and Adana, focusing on oral surgery and digital dentistry. The clinic uses a digital workflow with 3D imaging to find the exact location of stones before treatment begins. For patients who feel anxious, the facility has dedicated operating rooms for procedures under general anesthesia. Dr. Ufuk Gürsesli manages surgical cases, bringing expertise from two decades of practice in maxillofacial surgery.
Treatment options and techniques
The clinic focuses on minimally invasive methods to restore saliva flow and prevent infections. Most procedures are performed as outpatient care, meaning patients return home the same day. Treatment includes:
- Intraoral stone removal. This method removes superficial stones from inside the mouth. It is around $70 and includes local anesthetic.
- Imaging-guided removal. Doctors use CBCT 3D scans to locate larger or deeper stones. This complex procedure typically costs around $90.
- Surgical intervention. If a stone is deep in the gland, Dr. Gürsesli performs a minor surgery to clear the blockage.
What is included in the treatment
Patients receiving salivary gland stone removal get a structured care package to help with recovery. The following items are part of the surgical plan:
- Local anesthetic. This numbs the area to make the procedure painless.
- Digital imaging. 3D scans help the surgeon see the stone size and position.
- Specialist care. The procedure is performed by Dr. Ufuk Gürsesli in a sterile environment.
- Restored salivary flow. Successful removal stops recurrent swelling and discomfort.
Accommodation and flights are not included in the procedure price. You can request a consultation for salivary stone removal at Positive Dental Studio through the Bookimed website.

Positive Dental Studio: more details about the clinic
Positive Dental Studio is a private multi-specialty dental clinic established in 2011. It operates two branches in Istanbul and Adana. Since opening, the studio has treated over 15,000 patients. The team includes more than 15 specialist dentists. They cover everything from routine cleanings to complex jaw surgeries.
Advanced Dental Specialties
The clinic offers a broad range of dental services through a digital workflow. Specialists use 3D imaging and Digital Smile Design to plan treatments accurately. The facility includes dedicated operating rooms and an observation area for procedures under general anesthesia.
The surgical department performs specialized oral and maxillofacial procedures:
- Orthognathic surgery to correct bite and jaw alignment issues
- Removal of salivary gland stones using local anesthesia or imaging-guided techniques
- Surgical removal of large cysts and tumors with laboratory tissue examination
- Torus surgery to remove bony growths under local anesthetic
- Open joint surgery for complex jaw conditions
Orthodontists join the planning phase for jaw surgeries to ensure proper alignment. For children, the clinic has a dedicated department focused on oral health from infancy through adolescence.
Implantology and Prosthetics
The clinic offers several implant-supported solutions for tooth replacement. Surgeons use surgical guides – patient-specific templates – to place implants at the exact depth and angle. This digital planning reduces risks and improves prosthetic fit.
Prosthetic options available at the branches include:
- All-on-Four fixed full-arch restoration using a titanium bar framework
- Implant-supported zirconia crowns shaped using digital impressions
- Permanent bar-retained prostheses for single-arch replacement
- Full porcelain Empress and E-max crowns for high aesthetic transparency
Patients receive Guided Biofilm Therapy (GBT) during preparation. This technology makes plaque visible, so cleaning is more precise before surgical stages begin.
Specialized Gum and Root Canal Care
For patients with gum disease, the clinic uses laser gum disinfection and biostimulation. These methods treat periodontitis by reducing bacteria without aggressive surgery. Scaling and root planing often combine with laser therapy to reach deep periodontal pockets.
Endodontic specialists handle complex root canal anatomy for both initial treatments and retreatments. The restorative team focuses on aesthetic bonding and veneers. They prioritize zirconia and full ceramic materials to match the natural color of existing teeth.
Diagnostic and Treatment Technology
The clinic uses digital tools to ensure diagnostic accuracy. CBCT scans provide high-resolution images of the jaw bone for implant planning. Cerec Omnicam technology replaces traditional molds with fast digital impressions.
Additional diagnostic equipment includes:
- DIAGNOCam for early detection of hidden cavities without X-ray radiation
- Panoramic (OPG) and periapical X-rays for baseline assessments
- Electronic axiography for studying jaw movement and joint function
- Florida Probe for computer-assisted measurement of gum health
The facility spans three floors designed for modern equipment and surgical units. Doctors also train other professionals through the clinic's internal academy.
Support for International Patients
The clinic has a dedicated support system for patients visiting from abroad. Staff communicate in English, German, Russian, Arabic, and Turkish. Online booking helps patients coordinate their visit timing.
For those undergoing orthodontic treatment, the clinic provides long-term aftercare instructions. This includes retainers to protect alignment after the active treatment phase ends.
