Zirconia dental bridge in Smile Dental Turkey
About the clinic
A zirconia dental bridge at Smile Dental Turkey in Antalya offers a durable, metal-free solution to replace missing teeth. The clinic uses monolithic zirconia for its bridges to provide a natural appearance and high strength. This restorative procedure is performed by experienced cosmetic dentists like Dr. Uğur Gültekinler, who has over 20 years of experience in smile design.
Advanced Materials and Laboratory Control
The clinic uses monolithic zirconia for every bridge. This material is known for being extremely tough and resistant to chipping. Because it is metal-free, patients do not see dark lines near the gums over time. Smile Dental Turkey operates an on-site dental laboratory. This allows the team to have direct quality control over the shape and color of every restoration. Having a lab in the building helps the dentists make quick adjustments for a better fit.
Personalized Bridge Options
The dental team provides several types of bridges depending on the patient's needs. These include traditional bridges, cantilever bridges, and Maryland bonded versions. They also offer implant-supported bridges for those who need a more permanent foundation. Dr. Uğur Gültekinler uses digital smile design technology to plan the restoration. This method helps the dentist create a bridge that matches the natural symmetry of the patient's face.
Treatment Process and Quality Standards
Replacing missing teeth with a bridge usually requires two visits to the clinic. During the first visit, the dentist prepares the teeth and takes an impression. The final bridge is placed during the second visit after the laboratory crafts the piece. The clinic holds an ISO 9001 certification and a Health Tourism Certificate from the Turkish Ministry of Health. More than 1,100 patients have shared 5-star reviews on Trustpilot about their zirconia restorations at this facility.
Experienced Cosmetic Team
The cosmetic dentistry department is led by Dr. Uğur Gültekinler, a co-founder of the clinic who graduated from the Izmir Faculty of Dentistry in 2003. He works alongside senior cosmetic dentist Dr. Yekta Özsoy to manage complex smile design cases. Their team focuses on restorative treatments that improve both function and aesthetics. Patients traveling to Antalya can access packages that include hotel stays, VIP transfers, and flight support.
