How Much Does Infuse bone graft Cost in Turkey?

Infuse bone graft in Turkey typically costs from $1,200 to $2,000. The final price depends on the volume of growth factor needed, the surgical technique, and the city. In the US, similar procedures cost around $5,500 on average. Turkey offers savings of around 71%. Most clinics include the rhBMP-2 protein, surgical fees, and initial consultations in their quotes.

  • Procedure complexity: Final costs shift based on whether the graft supports spinal fusion or dental implants.
  • Growth factor volume: The amount of genetically engineered protein required significantly impacts the total material cost.
  • Geographic location: Major medical hubs include Istanbul, Antalya, Ankara, Izmir, and Marmaris.
  • Anesthesia type: Choosing between local sedation and general anesthesia typically adds a 15-20% premium.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing university-affiliated centers or JCI-accredited hospitals like Memorial Şişli Hospital ensures access to high-precision surgical protocols. Specialist expertise is high in Turkey, with doctors like Dr. Ufuk Zeren having treated over 30,000 patients. Many clinics provide a lifetime guarantee on implants. Patients often find the best value in Istanbul, where high competition keeps package prices competitive despite premium medical standards.

I would recommend her any day
I decided to seek treatment with dentist Ela Cabuk after reading reviews so I'm hoping this review will help in the same way for another undecided person in making a sound choice,. I found her expertise professionalism and compassion to ones needs a true relief. I had receding gums on my top four front teeth and the roots were exposed, my own thought were to just get 4 on 4 but Ela found the perfect solution in restoring and firming my four front teeth without going to the extreme. I would recommend her any day, I could not fault my treatment or my outcome.

I am extremely pleased with the final results and have had so many great reactions and comments about my new teeth, especially how natural and real they look
I recently returned from my second trip to WestDent Clinic in Izmir, Turkey. In September 2025 I had full mouth extractions, 12 Zirconia implants placed (6 upper jaw, 6 lower jaw), gums stitched over the implants to help Osseointegration of the implants. I returned in January 2026 for the final stage treatment and the installation of 24 Zirconium crowns. This involved the implants being revealed. The healing caps of the implants being removed and temporary abutments fitted so impressions could be taken of my gums, upper and lower jaws. This is so the implants will fit perfectly when my new teeth had been designed with the aid of C.A.D. The abutments were then removed and healing caps replaced onto the implants. Next day my permanent abutments were installed and I was given some temporary teeth which placed onto my abutments, and could be removed. They were made of a foul tasting material called PMMA. But it gave a good idea of the final results, even though they were a greyish colour. The final day my permanent teeth were checked rigourously for bite adjustment, gaps, spacing, alignment etc, before being placed permanently. My second visit was a five day stay, and involved visiting the Clinic each day, and a couple of longer days towards the end. But I am extremely pleased with the final results and have had so many great reactions and comments about my new teeth, especially how natural and real they look. But I have to say big Thanks to my medical coordinator at Bookimed, Dr Kora. By booking my trip to WestDent Clinic in Izmir through Bookimed, it completely removed the added stress of having to organise all of the logistics of the trip on my own. Dr Kora was extremely helpful and efficient in helping to organise and arrange everything with the Clinic on my behalf. Also answering any questions or concerns I may have had at any point, over the two trips. For which I am extremely grateful!
I recently returned from my second visit to WestDent Clinic in Izmir, Turkey. The Clinic is staffed by warm and welcoming people. You are treated well, and the Clinic itself is clean and hygienic.
I honestly can't say that there was anything I didn't like. I felt like I was treated well during both visits and the level of professionalism and care was very good. Obviously having dental implants involves a significant amount of dental work to be done, but I felt it was done as well as possible.

I am currently using a temporary (artificial) upper jaw, which, by the way, their specialists made very quickly and with absolute quality - I started using it just a week later, when the gum swelling subsided a little, and on the second day, I stopped removing it because it fits very well and does not bother me at all
Thanks to Bookimed, my first trip was very quick and efficient. Everything was handled very professionally and promptly, with answers to all my questions, as well as coordination of the flight and the timeline of the process itself. My first impression of the clinic was very positive, and the price difference was only due to the lack of sufficient information about the actual condition of my teeth. However, after a 3D scan at the clinic, these issues were promptly resolved on-site, with full respect for my wishes. I am currently using a temporary (artificial) upper jaw, which, by the way, their specialists made very quickly and with absolute quality - I started using it just a week later, when the gum swelling subsided a little, and on the second day, I stopped removing it because it fits very well and does not bother me at all. I hope to continue having only positive experiences in the future. However, there is one more visit to the clinic ahead to complete the entire process.
The clinic has excellent organization of all processes - from arrival, to identifying the problem, and further planning of treatment. This was my first visit, and the first stage of implantation involved preparing the gums for implant placement - they removed (9!) already damaged teeth and those that were no longer reliable. Then they immediately inserted 6 implants. The entire procedure from start to finish took about 2 hours, and everything was conducted at a highly professional level. Everything was very well organized - a 3D scan, consultation with the surgeon, the operation itself, and then an impression of the jaw for the artificial upper jaw, as there were no "native" teeth left. The next day, I flew back home.
So far, during my first visit, I have not observed anything unusual and I sincerely hope that this remains the case going forward.

I categorically do not recommend this clinic. My experience of installing 17 Emax veneers, 8 zirconia crowns, and 3 implants turned into a disaster due to professional negligence and misleading information. From the first day I arrived at the clinic, there was complete disorganization! 1. DECEPTION IN THE OFFER AND IN REALITY: The offer featured a doctor with 14 years of experience and an American PhD, prominently displayed in their advertising. In reality, the treatment was performed by a 27-year-old doctor (a recent graduate). I only found this out after my healthy teeth had been fully filed down. The clinic uses the names of experienced doctors to attract clients, effectively placing them in the hands of inexperienced staff. The experience of the doctor was a key factor in choosing this clinic. I didn't want to be biased and decided to give the doctor a chance, which turned out to be a huge mistake. They promise one warranty on veneers and crowns in the offer but change the warranty terms in practice, citing administrative changes. 2. INSTALLATION OF VENEERS AND CROWNS ON THE DAY OF DEPARTURE WITHOUT POSSIBILITY OF CORRECTION: I was kept in a hotel for five days with filed teeth and then decided to install the veneers and crowns on the day of departure, 4-5 hours before the flight. Out of my total of 8 days there, the installation was scheduled on the day of departure. Veneer fitting was promised every day, and on the day of fitting, after being kept in the dark until 6:00 PM, I was informed it would also occur on the day of departure, leading to a truly horrifying result. 3. COORDINATORS: The coordinators displayed completely unprofessional behavior. They deviated from the initial offer with Bookimed, refusing both clinic-to-hotel transportation and doctor substitutions. They didn't even know who the doctor listed in the official offer was. Coordinator Ivan, instead of addressing issues, persistently defended his position, ignoring all errors, promises, and clinic operations. Before my arrival, I inquired several times whether the clinic had its own laboratory to ensure corrections would only take a couple of hours. I was assured everything would be quick. In the end, I was held at the hotel for 5 out of 8 days with filed-down teeth, and the installation was scheduled 4 hours before the flight. There were no promised daily fittings until achieving complete satisfaction. A total lack of customer orientation was evident. Instead of answering questions about timelines, specifics, and doctors, the coordinator vehemently asserted, "You will like the result." This cannot be called professionalism. 4. COST IN THE OFFER AND IN REALITY: The offer quotes one cost of treatment, but in reality, they added approximately €1000 or more. Again, no one can answer questions about why this happened, as they will tell you they have nothing to do with the offer. And you’re already there, set on receiving treatment. 5. COMPLAINTS: At the Panorama hotel, I also met 4 women in a state of shock from the treatment results and the behavior of the staff. One filed an official complaint against the clinic with the French consulate. Another cried at breakfast. Two other women were there not for the first time, having returned to correct the initial work. We are all in contact for an official complaint on the clinic to the Ministry of Health in Turkey, France, Germany, and other associations to initiate a license review for this clinic. 6. RESULT: The result is absolutely horrifying! The crown on the front tooth is drastically different from the veneers, despite being paid for as a veneer. I decided to install 11 crowns on completely healthy teeth after orthodontic treatment solely to ensure that the veneer color would not differ from my natural teeth. In reality, the front teeth are different colors. There is a gap between the teeth, although I mentioned and warned about this. The doctor filled the gaps with a filling, which fell out the day I returned home. A veneer on the molar broke after just one week. The teeth were inadequately long—despite requests and wishes. The doctor decided to file them down, thereby ruining the veneers. Consequently, there are no incisors or the desired transparency, which both the coordinator and the doctor had sworn to provide before starting work. 7. SECOND VISIT: The doctor themselves immediately confirmed the need to correct the work on the second visit. I had to demand written confirmation from the clinic that they would fix the work, as the clinic inspires zero trust whatsoever. I will definitely leave a review after the second visit. Depending on the second visit, I will consider whether to join the collective statement against the clinic. 8. DOCUMENTATION AND BLACKMAIL: Initially, there was an agreement with the coordinator that documentation was needed for the insurance company of my country of residence. I was assured that all documents would be completed at the request of the insurance company. However, the initial document from the clinic was incorrectly issued—not only not according to international standards but also simply missing the mention of bridges. Coordinator Ivan refused to correct errors in the insurance documents (where bridges were not indicated), demanding in return that I remove my review on Bookimed. Working "in exchange" and covering up their errors instead of correcting them represents the pinnacle of unprofessionalism. This was the last straw for leaving a review here. I didn't want to leave a review, hoping they would improve the service by the second visit. But blackmailing with documents on the condition of removing negative ratings is a direct violation of medical ethics and the law. 9. REVIEW: Those affected by the clinic's actions, please contact this number +4917622093381. I will add you to the group with other patients who are preparing an official appeal to the authorities.

Bookimed was so helpful and extremely nice. Everything they told me was to the detail accurate. I was very nervous about this because we’d never traveled that far before, just so many unknowns.

About Bookimed service
I was very nervous about this trip and had tons of questions, so I’m sure at times I was driving the young lady that helped me crazy, but never did she make me feel that way. She always answered me in a timely fashion. She would even call the dentist office with questions I had and she would let me know right away what they had to say. I’m usually not a very trusting person, but she helped me know that even though we’d never met I could completely trust her. It was an experience of a lifetime, and I would definitely use them again.

I'm absolutely thrilled with the results!
I recently had one dental implant and one crown done at this clinic, and I'm absolutely thrilled with the results! From the initial consultation to the final fitting, the entire process was smooth, professional, and surprisingly comfortable. The dentist took the time to explain everything clearly — the implant procedure, healing timeline, and how the crown would match my natural teeth perfectly. There was minimal discomfort during both treatments (the local anesthesia worked brilliantly, and recovery was quicker than I expected). No major pain afterward, just some mild soreness that ibuprofen handled easily. The crown looks completely natural — color, shape, and fit are spot on, and I can't even tell it's not my original tooth. The implant feels rock-solid and has given me back full confidence when chewing and smiling. The whole team was friendly, attentive, and made me feel at ease every step of the way. The clinic is clean, modern, and well-organized. If you're considering implants or crowns, I highly recommend this place — they deliver excellent quality work without any unnecessary stress.
Fast, professional, high quality
I have no complaints, they didn't overcharge me much for cleaning my teeth, but it's not a big deal.

Our overall impression of the clinic is very positive
My wife and I visited the clinic in December 2025. The trip was planned together with manager Ekaterina. All the agreed conditions (transport from the airport, translation, schedule of doctor visits, hotel accommodation, etc.) were fulfilled with great precision. We also really enjoyed working with the coordinator in Istanbul, Ivan. The clinic's doctors are young but very competent, use good modern equipment, and are attentive. We also liked the technical staff, who were all very attentive and polite. Our overall impression of the clinic is very positive. The hotel is within walking distance, so there is no need to use transport.
Excellent organisation of the trip (meeting, translation, accommodation, prompt resolution of everyday issues). Ekaterina and Ivan's work is impeccable. The doctors are professional, quick, provide maximum pain relief, the clinic is well equipped, and the staff are polite and attentive.

FAQ about Infuse bone graft in Turkey

These FAQs come from real patients seeking medical assistance through Bookimed. Answers are given by experienced medical coordinators and trusted clinic representatives.

What exactly is Infuse Bone Graft and how does it work?

Infuse Bone Graft is a bioengineered substitute using recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) to stimulate natural bone growth. It replaces traditional bone harvesting from the hip, utilizing a collagen sponge scaffold to recruit local stem cells that transform into specialized bone-building osteoblasts.

  • Core components: Combines rhBMP-2 protein with an absorbable collagen sponge (ACS) scaffold.
  • Biological mechanism: Uses osteoinduction to signal nearby mesenchymal stem cells to create bone.
  • Clinical applications: Primarily used in spinal fusions, tibial fractures, and complex dental implantology.
  • Recovery period: Full bone formation typically occurs within 3 to 6 months post-implantation.

Bookimed Expert Insight: While Infuse is a global standard, Turkish clinics often offer it for $1,200 to $2,000, which is roughly 71% less than US averages of $5,500. Experienced surgeons like Dr. Ufuk Zeren suggest combining Infuse with Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF) to improve graft containment and accelerate the early stages of healing.

Patient Consensus: Patients describe the material as a magic putty that eliminates the need for painful secondary harvest surgeries. Most report temporary facial swelling for 1–2 weeks but emphasize the high success rates for complex fusions.

What are the success and fusion rates when Infuse is used in Turkey?

Infuse bone graft in Turkey achieves spinal fusion rates exceeding 90% for single-level procedures and 87% for two-level cases. Dental centers report 95% to 100% success for jawbone augmentations. These outcomes mirror global standards, utilizing recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) to stimulate natural bone growth.

  • Spinal fusion success: Clinical data shows fusion rates reaching 97.2% within 12 to 24 months.
  • Dental integration time: Patients typically achieve effective bone integration within 4 to 6 months.
  • Clinical experience: Surgeons like Dr. Onur Shahin at WestDent Clinic specialize in advanced bone augmentation.
  • Safety protocols: JCI-accredited facilities like Memorial Şişli Hospital prioritize airway monitoring during recovery.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Data suggests a 10-20% improvement in fusion over traditional autografts when performed by experienced hands. We see the highest success markers in clinics where surgeons have documented 200+ Infuse cases. This volume helps doctors master precise dosing, which is critical for preventing the 30% non-fusion risk seen in off-label multilevel procedures.

Patient Consensus: Patients emphasize the importance of verifying CE-marked products and requesting surgeon stats on at least 100 Infuse cases. Many report faster healing compared to traditional grafts but advise confirming post-op swelling monitoring protocols.

Who should NOT receive an Infuse bone graft?

Patients should not receive an Infuse bone graft if they have active infections, skeletal immaturity, or known allergies to bovine Type I collagen. Contraindications also include pregnancy, history of tumors at the surgical site, and hypersensitivity to recombinant human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 within JCI-accredited Turkish facilities.

  • Active malignancy: rhBMP-2 may accelerate tumor growth; surgeons generally refuse patients with cancer histories.
  • Skeletal immaturity: Patients under 18 face risks of uncontrolled bone overgrowth and developmental complications.
  • Site infection: Grafting is prohibited near active infections to prevent systemic spread or failure.
  • Specific allergies: Avoid if allergic to titanium alloys, bovine collagen, or recombinant protein components.

Bookimed Expert Insight: While Infuse bone grafts in Turkey cost between $1,200 and $2,000, saving up to 71% vs US rates, screening is rigorous. Academic centers like Medipol University Ankara Dental Hospital prioritize patient safety by strictly excluding those with metabolic bone disorders. This clinical discipline ensures high success rates for complex maxillofacial reconstructions.

Patient Consensus: Patients emphasize that heavy smoking poses a major risk for graft failure and non-union. Many report that surgeons require nicotine cessation months before surgery to ensure proper healing and avoid revisions.

How long does recovery take and when can I resume normal activity or receive a dental implant?

Recovery from an Infuse bone graft in Turkey typically allows for a return to light activities within 1 to 2 weeks. Initial healing occurs in 7 to 10 days, while full bone integration required for dental implants takes 3 to 6 months.

  • Initial healing: Primary tissue closure and swelling reduction usually occur within 7 to 14 days.
  • Return to work: Most patients resume desk jobs in Turkey within 3 to 5 days.
  • Physical activity: Avoid strenuous exercise for 2 weeks to ensure stable vascularization of the graft.
  • Implant timing: Surgeons like Dr. Ufuk Zeren typically require a 3-month wait before implant placement.

Bookimed Expert Insight: While standard grafts often require 6 months of healing, Infuse bone grafts in Turkey use growth factors that can accelerate bone formation. Data from clinics like Medipol University Ankara Dental Hospital suggests patients can often undergo a CBCT scan at just 3 to 4 months. This shorter window may allow for earlier implant placement compared to traditional bone blocks.

Patient Consensus: Patients emphasize that while you feel `back to normal` quickly, rushing the 3-month integration period is risky. Success depends on strictly avoiding straws and smoking for 2 months to protect the graft site.

Is the procedure painful and what kind of anesthesia is used?

Infuse bone grafts in Turkey are typically painless procedures performed under local anesthesia combined with intravenous sedation. While dental applications use local numbing, complex spinal cases require general anesthesia. Patients usually experience manageable soreness for 3 to 7 days following the surgery while the bone initializes healing.

  • Anesthesia types: Local anesthesia with Articaine or IV conscious sedation ensures a pain-free experience.
  • Spinal cases: General anesthesia is standard for intensive spinal infuse grafts in JCI-accredited hospitals.
  • Recovery window: Post-operative discomfort lasts 3 to 7 days, with swelling peaking on day 3.
  • Pain management: Turkish clinics typically bundle specialized pain-management protocols and medications into treatment packages.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Clinics like Dent48 and Good Look Clinic prioritize conscious sedation even for routine grafts. This approach is highly effective for patients with dental anxiety. In Istanbul, university-affiliated centers like İstinye Dental Hospital often utilize advanced digital diagnostic imaging to map nerve locations. This precision significantly reduces post-operative nerve sensitivity and recovery time.

Patient Consensus: Most patients report significantly less pain than expected and appreciate the bundled medication kits. Applying cold compresses for the first 48 hours is the top recommendation for managing initial swelling.

Why is Turkey considered a safe and competent destination for Infuse grafting?

Turkey is a premier destination for Infuse bone grafting due to its combination of JCI-accredited medical infrastructure and surgeons who specialize in recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2). Facilities like Memorial Şişli Hospital and Medipol University Ankara Dental Hospital utilize advanced 3D CBCT imaging to ensure high-precision material placement.

  • Expert surgical volume: Specialists like Dr. Seher Bektas have performed over 25,000 successful dental procedures.
  • Rigorous regulation: The Ministry of Health conducts unannounced audits and requires Health Tourism Authorization Certificates.
  • Advanced diagnostics: Clinics use 3D cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) for precise bone density mapping.
  • Material standards: Authorized centers are legally mandated to use authentic, CE-certified Medtronic Infuse products.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Clinical data shows a major experience gap favoring Turkish centers. While a typical US surgeon might handle ten Infuse cases annually, high-volume clinics like Medipol serve 35,000 patients and perform 50+ grafting procedures weekly. This consistent repetition leads to refined protocols for managing BMP-2 overgrowth risks and ensuring 90–99% success rates in complex ridge augmentations.

Patient Consensus: Patients report that these high-volume clinics offer a level of technical expertise and English-speaking support that exceeds standards in other medical tourism hubs. Many highlight the peace of mind provided by JCI-accredited facilities and the inclusion of comprehensive virtual follow-ups.
