How Much Does Osteoplasty Cost in Turkey?

Osteoplasty in Turkey typically costs from $700 to $1,200. The final price depends on the specific bone modification required, clinic accreditation, and the surgeon's expertise. Patients save around 71% compared to the US, where this procedure costs $3,500 on average. Standard packages often include the surgical procedure, preoperative tests, and specialized medical consultations.

  • Surgical technique: Advanced methods using robotic assistance or specialized lasers may increase costs by 20-30%.
  • Medical hub location: Prices in Istanbul, Ankara, and Izmir are competitive due to high clinic density.
  • Clinic certification: Facilities with Joint Commission International (JCI) accreditation often have a premium for meeting global standards.
  • Hospital stay: Extended inpatient recovery in private rooms typically adds to the total package price.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing a specialized center like Memorial Bahçelievler Hospital provides high value through bundled services. Their packages start around $3,400 and include preoperative testing with expert consultations. This integrated approach ensures all specialized surgical requirements are met without extra fees. Many top-rated Turkish clinics, such as Dental Bosphorus, maintain high patient volumes, which helps keep individual procedure costs lower.

Such an unparalleled, all-encompassing service is unthinkable in Germany!
My rather unexpected decision to have two implants fitted at the age of 76 was immediately put into action by Dentist Gürkan! He gave me excellent advice, then examined my jawbone using an X-ray, and after a further 45 minutes, the two implants were professionally and perfectly in place! His very, very friendly manner and steady hand made this procedure a truly memorable experience! My thanks also go to the entire team: the surgical assistant, the reception staff, as well as the German interpreter and the member of staff who drove me from the office to the Dent-Helen-Clinic and, after the treatment, to the nearest cash machine, and looked after me. Such an unparalleled, all-encompassing service is unthinkable in Germany! Thank you very much for this positive experience and for continuing to keep your patients happy! I am already very much looking forward to returning to complete the treatment in a few months’ time! Best regards from Holger, aka Biker Bruno

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.

Everything just feels right
If you're considering veneers, I would absolutely point you toward this clinic. My biggest worry was whether they would look and feel natural, but that concern is gone. The surgeon and staff were wonderful. I received over ten zirconia veneers, and the color is a perfect blend with my other teeth. It's still early, but I've had no sensitivity to hot or cold drinks, and my bite feels completely perfect. Everything just feels right. The care I received from everyone involved made the whole process feel manageable and positive.

His support, responsiveness, and commitment made all the difference for me, and I am sincerely grateful for everything he did
I want to sincerely thank Winnington at Bookimed for the exceptional support he provided during my dental treatment (4 implants) journey in Istanbul. What truly stood out was how Winnington completely transformed a very stressful situation into a successful and fully satisfying experience. I only had a 3-day stay in Istanbul after a long 9.5 hrs flight from Canada, initially I had an appointment arranged with another clinic that I honestly did not feel comfortable moving forward with. At that point, the situation became very stressful because of the limited time I had available and the fear of wasting the entire trip without receiving the treatment I urgently needed. This is where Winnington went far above and beyond. Understanding the urgency and pressure I was under, he acted incredibly fast and managed to arrange a new appointment for me with Memorial Hospital on extremely short notice. Thanks entirely to his efforts, coordination, and persistence, I was able to secure an appointment almost immediately despite the tight timeline. That single action completely changed the outcome of my trip. The experience at Memorial Hospital was outstanding from start to finish, I left extremely satisfied with both the care and the results. Throughout the entire process, Winnington stayed in constant communication, followed up regularly, helped clarify pricing and logistics, handled concerns professionally, and genuinely made me feel supported during a very stressful moment. What impressed me most was not only his professionalism, but his ability to deliver solutions under pressure and truly advocate for the patient. Without his quick actions and dedication, my trip could have easily turned into a disappointing experience. I highly recommend Bookimed (big shout out to Winnington) to anyone considering medical treatment abroad. His support, responsiveness, and commitment made all the difference for me, and I am sincerely grateful for everything he did.

I was genuinely surprised at how manageable it all turned out to be
I had mentally prepared myself for a difficult recovery, but I was genuinely surprised at how manageable it all turned out to be. The areas where eight to ten strategic implants were placed are barely noticeable in my jaw. Of course, the process is still ongoing — I’m on a soft diet for now, but that’s a minor detail compared to how I feel overall. The surgeon and the entire team were very professional and attentive. For anyone considering a similar procedure, I can say that my experience at this clinic was a positive one.
The Russian-speaking coordinator organised absolutely everything: my appointments with the doctor, my stay at the hotel, transport, and looked after me perfectly both during and after the procedure. The doctor is a true professional, and the price for the services is very reasonable. I have consulted many doctors in different countries around the world, but these are the only ones I can recommend. Thank you, Mavidenta Clinic🥰

They have a true eye for detail
My biggest fear was that my new smile would look obviously artificial, but the team here really listened. They have a true eye for detail. The surgeon and the entire staff were so supportive from the first consultation, which made the whole process feel manageable and clear. I felt comfortable. It’s still early in my recovery, and the biggest challenge right now is being patient and avoiding hard foods while everything settles. The care I received at the clinic was consistent and professional, and I'm very pleased with the outcome so far.
I'm pleased with the All on 6 treatment. I had the first stage done three weeks ago. Now everything is slowly healing. I recommend the YEG clinic.

I was incredibly relieved that the feeling is now completely gone
My main concern was the potential for lingering tooth sensitivity, so I was incredibly relieved that the feeling is now completely gone. The results are noticeable—my teeth are about 4 to 5 shades whiter, and the new color is holding steady. The surgeon and staff were professional and earned their high marks. The whitening is mostly even across all my teeth, which is good, though not perfectly uniform, explaining my 8/10 recommendation. Overall, it was a very straightforward process with a solid outcome.
Smooth seamless process

It was an experience my husband and I will never forget!!
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. But from the minute we were picked up from the airport we felt completely comfortable. Even with the language barrier, there were tons of laughs, smiles and hugs. It was an experience my husband and I will never forget!!
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.

The result is noticeable yet natural—my teeth are now 2–3 shades lighter
I was very lucky with the dentist and the clinic staff; the whole experience was very comfortable. The result is noticeable yet natural—my teeth are now 2–3 shades lighter. And I’m glad that I have absolutely no sensitivity to cold drinks. The hardest part after the whitening treatment turned out to be avoiding foods that stain; that takes discipline. My main advice to anyone planning to have the procedure: be prepared not to eat foods that stain your teeth for a while, and even take a toothbrush and toothpaste with you to restaurants so you can maintain the whiteness straight away.
Everything was great
No downsides

The clinic staff were very caring; I’d like to give them a special thank you
My biggest concern was whether the bridge would look natural. Fortunately, the colour matched my natural teeth very closely, so that’s all fine. I had a zirconia bridge fitted over 5–6 teeth. The clinic staff were very caring; I’d like to give them a special thank you. However, I would have liked a better rapport with the surgeon; I was left with the feeling that not everything had been fully discussed. I am currently getting used to it. The main difficulty is sensitivity when chewing, and I am still getting used to my new bite. Overall, the result is good, although the process itself was not ideal.

It’s only been 15 days since my All-on-4 implants were fitted, and I’m already feeling great
What worried me most was the recovery period and whether I would be able to speak and eat normally. My fears were unfounded. It’s only been 15 days since my All-on-4 implants were fitted, and I’m already feeling great. The temporary bridge feels stable and comfortable, and I can chew normally, which was a pleasant surprise so soon after the operation. My speech is perfectly clear; I haven’t had any problems at all. I had the MIS implant system fitted, and the gums around them look healthy and pink and are healing well. I am very grateful to the team for their work.

I am very happy with the result
I had several dental crowns fitted at this clinic and the experience has been very positive. One of my biggest concerns was how my bite would feel afterwards, and I can say that it feels completely natural when chewing. That was key for me. I’ve also been very pleased with the aesthetic result. The colour is very natural and doesn’t look artificial at all. I felt well looked after throughout the whole process. I’d like to thank Dr Tuğçe Bigiş for her professionalism and kindness, as well as the interpreter (María, a Madrid native now living in Izmir), the coordinator Natalia, and the rest of the team, who were very professional and clear in their explanations. At the moment, I’m still getting used to eating (avoiding hard, very cold or very hot foods), but that’s to be expected. I am very happy with the result. Thank you all.
I have just finished my dental treatment at WestDent (Izmir) and my experience has been very positive. I would particularly like to commend Dr Tuğçe Bigiş for her professionalism and kindness, as well as María (the interpreter, a girl from Madrid now living in Izmir) and Natalia (the coordinator), who were instrumental throughout the process in ensuring everything went smoothly and was clear. The treatment wasn’t straightforward and there were moments of discomfort, but the team supported me every step of the way. The arrangements (hotel, transport, clinic) were very well organised. I’m very pleased with the aesthetic and functional results. Now comes the adjustment phase, but it was definitely worth it.
Overall, my experience was very positive. As for areas for improvement, the only thing I found a bit of a nuisance was the long waiting times at certain stages of the process. Otherwise, I was given all the necessary information and had an interpreter, which made communication much easier.

The surgeon and staff worked very professionally and seamlessly, creating a calm and reassuring atmosphere
If you’re considering getting a dental implant, I’d advise you first and foremost to prepare yourself for the recovery period. It’s now the second week since my operation, and I’m still avoiding chewing on that side so as not to put any strain on the area, and there’s still a slight redness around the gum. This is normal. I had a Straumann implant fitted. The organisation at the clinic was excellent, and the surgeon and staff worked very professionally and seamlessly, creating a calm and reassuring atmosphere. I have no complaints about their work. I am happy with my choice.
Excellent translators, professional doctors, and a caring approach to every patient

FAQ about Osteoplasty in Turkey

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

Is it safe to undergo bone surgery in Turkey?

Bone surgery in Turkey is safe when performed at facilities accredited by Joint Commission International (JCI) or ISO. Leading hospitals like Medipol Mega University Hospital and Lokman Hekim utilize advanced technologies such as the Da Vinci Surgical System, ensuring high precision and safety for complex orthopedic and maxillofacial procedures.

  • Accreditation standards: JCI-accredited hospitals follow 1,200 safety protocols, including strict infection control.
  • Surgeon expertise: Specialists like Dr. Serdar Yilmaz hold memberships in international associations like IAOMS.
  • Advanced technology: Top-tier centers employ robotic-assisted systems and modern diagnostic tools for accuracy.
  • Affordable care: Osteoplasty costs $700 to $1,200, significantly lower than US averages.

Bookimed Expert Insight: High patient volume at major hubs like Medipol Mega, serving 1,000,000 patients annually, creates a massive experience gap. Surgeons in these high-traffic university-affiliated hospitals often perform more specialized bone reconstructions in one month than many Western surgeons do in a year.

Patient Consensus: Many patients report excellent outcomes for minor osteoplasties like sinus lifts at accredited clinics. However, travelers warn that choosing clinics solely via social media ads can lead to inadequate post-operative support or hygiene issues.

Who are the top surgeons for osteoplasty in Turkey?

Top surgeons for osteoplasty in Turkey include specialists like Dr. Emrah Dilaver and Dr. Ali Kilic, who focus on maxillofacial and orthopedic bone reconstruction. These experts typically hold Turkish Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery certifications and operate in JCI-accredited facilities across Istanbul and Izmir.

  • Dr. Emrah Dilaver: Expert at İstinye Dental Hospital specializing in orthognathic surgery and facial aesthetics.
  • Dr. Ali Kilic: Performed 16,000+ procedures at DentaPoint, including complex reconstructive and maxillofacial surgeries.
  • Dr. Susana Akdash: Specialist at WestDent Clinic with advanced training in immediate loading bone implants.
  • Prof. Dr. Ibrahim Azboy: Leading orthopedic surgeon at Medipol Mega focusing on hip joint preservation techniques.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Data from 389 Turkish clinics shows a clear divide between academic and private centers. While private clinics like DentaPoint report high volumes of 15,000+ treatments, university hospitals like Medipol Mega offer specialized intra-operative navigation technology for orthopedic cases. Choosing a surgeon with at least 500 documented cases is a reliable benchmark for safety in this procedure.

Patient Consensus: Patients emphasize the importance of requesting CBCT scans before surgery to ensure precision. Many report significant savings but advise budgeting for a full 14-day recovery period to manage post-operative swelling safely.

What exactly is osteoplasty, and why is it done?

Osteoplasty is a surgical procedure used to reshape, repair, or contour bone to restore natural function and aesthetics. It is commonly performed to treat joint impingement, reduce prominent bony ridges like the brow bone, or prepare the jaw for dental implants through bone grafting.

  • Joint preservation: Reshaping irregular bone surfaces prevents friction and delays the need for total replacements.
  • Facial contouring: Surgeons shave down prominent frontal bones or jawlines to refine aesthetic facial features.
  • Dental preparation: Bone grafts and ridge reshaping provide a stable foundation for successful permanent implants.
  • Functional recovery: Removing bony spurs or overgrowths restores restricted range of motion in various joints.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Data shows a rising trend in combining forehead osteoplasty with hair transplants in Istanbul clinics. While the procedure addresses bony prominences over 5mm, top surgeons like Ali Kilic at DentaPoint use 3D CT scans first. This confirms if the issue is bone or soft tissue for better symmetry.

Patient Consensus: Patients often report that while swelling and bruising last 2 weeks, minor numbness can persist for 6 months. Many noted that undergoing the procedure also unexpectedly resolved long-standing sinus pressure issues.

What do all-inclusive osteoplasty packages typically include?

All-inclusive osteoplasty packages in Turkey provide a complete surgical solution, covering clinical fees, hospital stays, and essential travel logistics for a single fixed price. These bundles typically include pre-operative diagnostics, the surgical procedure, certified anesthesia, medical supplies, and VIP transfers between the airport and clinic.

  • Medical fees: Covers primary surgeon, surgical assistants, and professional anesthesiology services.
  • Clinical diagnostics: Includes necessary blood work, X-rays, and physical examinations before surgery.
  • Hospital stay: Typically provides 1 to 2 nights of inpatient monitoring and meals.
  • Travel logistics: Usually includes 5 to 14 nights in a 4 or 5-star hotel.
  • Patient support: Provides a bilingual coordinator or translator for medical consultations and logistics.

Bookimed Expert Insight: While many clinics offer a flat rate, we see that specialized centers like Medipol Mega University Hospital leverage a massive 810-bed infrastructure to include multi-disciplinary consultations. When comparing packages, look for those including Straumann materials or JCI-accredited facilities, as these signals often indicate higher perioperative safety standards without significantly increasing the base package price.

Patient Consensus: Patients often recommend setting aside 20% extra for potential add-ons like extended hotel stays or specialized physical therapy. They consistently highlight the convenience of VIP transfers but advise getting an itemized list in writing to confirm which post-discharge medications are included.

What is the recovery process like?

Recovery from osteoplasty in Turkey involves an acute inflammatory phase lasting 48 to 72 hours, followed by a proliferative phase where bone and tissue begin stabilizing. Most patients return to light activities within 10 to 14 days, though internal remodeling continues for 6 to 12 months.

  • Initial recovery: Heavy swelling and bruising peak during the first 48 hours after bone contouring.
  • Pain management: Discomfort is highest between days 3 and 7, requiring prescribed analgesics and rest.
  • Activity restrictions: Most patients require 7 to 10 days off work to manage localized tightness.
  • Final results: Numbness typically fades and asymmetry resolves by 3 months as bone fully settles.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Clinics like Istinye Dental Hospital and Dental Bosphorus often utilize Joint Commission International (JCI) standards to minimize infection risks during bone remodeling. Data shows that patients choosing clinics with onsite maxillofacial specialists, like those at Medipol Mega, report smoother transitions from surgery to soft-food diets compared to general dental centers.

Patient Consensus: Many patients suggest sleeping propped up to cut swelling in half and using video check-ins for peace of mind. While the first week feels tight, the ability to resume light routines by week 2 is often cited as a major relief.
