How it works
How Much Does Gum surgery Cost in Istanbul?
Gum surgery in Istanbul typically costs from $100 to $100 depending on the complexity of the case and the technique used. Prices are influenced by the number of teeth treated and whether laser technology or traditional methods are applied. In the US, similar procedures cost around $3,000 on average. Patients save around 94% compared to US rates. The cost usually includes local anesthesia, initial consultations, and follow-up examinations.
- Gingivectomy: $40 to $200 for removal of diseased gum tissue or gummy smile correction.
- Apically repositioned flap: $250 to $500 for reducing deep periodontal pockets.
- Plastic of gingival recession: from $450 for complex restructuring of receding gum lines.
- Laser-assisted techniques: Typically adds a 20-30% premium while reducing recovery times and improving precision.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Istanbul dominates Turkey's dental market with specialized centers like Dental Bosphorus that focus exclusively on periodontics and aesthetic dentistry. High-volume hospitals like Hisar Hospital Intercontinental offer JCI-accredited safety standards often missing in smaller clinics. Specialist Enes Kayan provides regenerative surgery expertise that adds significant value for patients with complex bone loss issues. Selecting a clinic with an in-house laboratory can reduce total treatment time to just four days.
