After completing the work, clients receive a quality guarantee - for 5 years in my case
I am from Denmark. I am visiting the clinic for the second time with various dental problems and also aesthetics. I was always met at the airport on time and even with flowers. I was accommodated in a good hotel with breakfast included and paid for - this is also important. Transportation from the hotel to the clinic and back or, if desired, to any point in Izmir. In the clinic, translators are always nearby who participate in the treatment process and answer all questions. Doctors (young) work quickly and efficiently. There are also dental technicians who quickly make crowns - literally before your eyes. Teeth scanning is also done in the clinic. The atmosphere is very friendly, relaxed. There are a lot of clients from different countries with whom it is pleasant to discuss common problems. After completing the work, clients receive a quality guarantee - for 5 years in my case. Upon returning to my country, I can always ask a question by phone and receive a quick answer.
I liked the quality of the work and the low price

For me this was worth every penny
I visited the clinic from the UK to have 28 crowns. I have to admit I was sceptical. Mavidenta clinic stood out to me for fairness and reviews so I followed this through with them. Bookimed was consistent and answered all my questions prior offering support. The clinic connected me and made all the arrangements including transfers from the airport to the clinic and hotel. I booked my hotel separately as I wanted self catering and an apartment. I made sure I was within a close travel distance to the clinic. When I arrived at the clinic I was met by a translator who explained everything. I met with the Dr who was truly an expert in her field. The clinic was spotlessly clean , modern and staff were also the same. I discussed my treatment plan again at the clinic as it appeared I would need some root canal work and filling which were additional. I also upgraded the quality of the crowns. I paid half of the treatment up front and reserved the rest for the end. The treatment took 6 days and I was at the clinic 5 of the days. Total time at the clinic each day would range from 1hr too 5hrs. I was given prescriptions for antibiotics and pain relief. The entire process was reflective of the cost and quality. The clinic was not the cheapest nor the most expensive but it was and did deliver a high quality finish and service. I don't believe you could get much better. If your hesitant about visiting don't be. For me this was worth every penny. Tips and things to be aware of: If your paying by debit or credit card you will need to pay local tax. If you pay cash you don't. Don't expect this to be a pain free process. It's dental work. However the clinic and staff are super professional and your given pain relief. Allow yourself a few days extra at the end of the treatment so if there are any complications you can sort them out and allow yourself time to enjoy parts of the city at the same time. Try and book accommodation close to the rail network or within a 30 min walk. Overall I was highly satisfied with the entire process and would recommend the clinic and process to anyone who is thinking of visiting

I am so happy with my dental treatment at the GK Dental Clinic!
I would highly recommend the SoracaMed clinic. Everything was organised, without delay, which is very important for a person who came for medical services from another country. The qualification and attitude of the medical staff and the doctor is above all praise. There is an interpreter coordinator, which makes the process so easy. The amount for the services was also the same as what I had been quoted in correspondence prior to my arrival in the country. I appreciate that there was no imposition of unnecessary expensive services, everything is just on the merits. The clinic is clean, stylish and inspires confidence. Thank you so much to the entire SoracaMed team! Good luck and prosperity I am so happy with my dental treatment at the Soraca Med Clinic! I would like to emphasize very efficient work of the team. I came from another country and it took me literally 2 brief visits to have a job done! The doctor and all the medical personnel is highly qualified, very friendly, great attitude , great bedside manners. No forcing unnecessary expensive treatments, everything was up to the point. No hidden charges, everything related to pricing was very transparent since the beginning. The clinic is super clean. They have a Russian- English speaking translator- coordinator that was really helpful. I highly recommend Soraca Med!

Everything is simply amazing
I express my sincere gratitude to Bookimed, in particular to the medical coordinator on the Bookimed platform Christina and the coordinator of the SoracaMed clinic in Antalya and translator Valeria. I went to Antalya on a tourist trip to Turkey. I only had 2 days in Antalya. And Christina was able to quickly find me a dental clinic in Antalya. I needed a crown placed on an implant. And Valeria, many thanks to her, was able to quickly come to an agreement with Dr. Göksel Kalyaz. Our tourist group arrived in Antalya in the evening of March 20th. At a time convenient for me, a term was immediately assigned that same evening. By the time I arrived, the abutment needed for the implant I had installed had been found. I arrived at the clinic late, but Valeria and the doctor were waiting for me. All procedures necessary to make the crown were performed. And on March 21, at 15:00, the crown was made and I was assigned a term at that time. I had a crown installed. There was no inflammation or pain after the crown was installed. Everything is simply amazing. Once again, many thanks to Christina, Valeria and Dr. Göksel Kalyaz for their professionalism. I confidently recommend that anyone who needs this help contact Bookimed coordinator Christina, coordinator Valeria and Dr. Göksel Kalyaz at the SoracaMed dental clinic in Antalya. A transfer is available for a fee (cheaper than a taxi). Stanislav. Latvia. March 21, 2024.

My first experience was not very successful, the clinic that was recommended to me for implantation was simply terrible and the attitude towards the client was identical. But the world is not without good people, and the second attempt was crowned with success. An excellent clinic was selected, for which I am very grateful.

Dear WestDent Clinic employees, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to you for the excellent organization and professional approach in organizing treatment. Your efficiency and attentive attitude towards patients deserve the highest praise. Installing 30 crowns in just 4 days is a truly impressive result that never fails to amaze me. Your attention to detail, kindness and caring attitude created a pleasant atmosphere that made my visit comfortable and painless. I would like to especially highlight your precision and accuracy during the procedures, which gave me confidence in the quality of the services provided. You have demonstrated a high level of professionalism and care for patients, and I deeply appreciate your work." I would also note your high quality of service and assistance in organizing the trip. Your driver, Kaptan Vip Erham, is always punctual and efficient in the conditions of the transport infrastructure, as well as your translators -the supervisors, Lina and Natasha, were incredibly helpful during consultations and organizing all aspects of the trip, including transfers from the airport to the hotel, then to the clinic and back to the airport. Their support made me feel looked after throughout the entire trip. Thank you for your high professional training and care for your client. I remain satisfied with your services and am ready to recommend WestDent Clinic to other interested parties. With gratitude, Satisfied client: Juri Kukshaus

FAQ about Dental Crown Installation in Turkey

Dental Crowns in Turkey: Types, Advantages, Costs, and More

Oral health is a crucial factor affecting our life and its quality. Almost 3.5 billion people globally have problems with teeth, for instance, gum disease or tooth decay. Dental crowns fix these and more issues when a person needs to replace the natural tooth with an artificial equivalent and anticipate the healthy and stunning outcome.

But how and where to arrange the procedure of dental crown installation to get the best possible experience?

Each year, more and more international patients are going abroad for dental tourism. For instance, in 2020, 290,000 citizens of the USA went abroad for medical and dental procedures, and the percentage has increased over these years. Turkey is one of the most popular destinations for many reasons. It provides various dental services; its medical centres are equipped with high-ended technologies and offer beneficial dental offers with the entire maintenance package.

Why should you consider Turkey for dental treatments? All answers on the dental crowns in Turkey — types, costs, procedure course, and more — are below.

What is a Dental Crown?

Dental crowns are dental restorations that are applicable to cover or reshape natural teeth, resolve dental problems like discoloured teeth or tooth decay, or restore missing teeth. It is also a solution for dental implant treatment when the implant itself must be covered with artificial teeth, which means the installation of tooth crowns.

Dental crowns in Turkey are made of different materials which define their types: metal crowns, zirconia crowns, full ceramic crowns, etc. All of them have distinct qualities and will carry out the function of your teeth for many years.

There is also such a definition of dental crowns as temporary crowns or permanent crowns. As their names suggest, the first ones are used for brief usage between the dental crown installation stages while you wait for the long-lasting solution that will serve you up to 20 years.

Why Dental Crowns?

Before arranging dental treatment in Turkey, you should know more about all available dental options there.

So, why do you need to highlight dental crowns as a solution? If the natural enamel of your teeth does not serve its functions, it is when the dental crowns must be used. The reasons why your teeth should be covered with the dental crown are the following:

  • It would be best if you protected your weak teeth in case of a deep cavity. It affects your healthy teeth and their enamel on such a scale that there are no other options than dental crowns. And in some cases, it is the only decision to protect other teeth from damage.
  • Your teeth have large fillings. It may be an excellent choice when you need tooth restoration, but it does not provide the necessary strength and support for the tooth and, thus, may be easily damaged. In that case, the dental crown is not an option but a necessity.
  • You have a dental bridge, and the tooth crown can keep holding it. It protects the bridge from sliding and you from the feeling of discomfort.
  • You need to restore the broken tooth or reshape the teeth, changing their colour and structure.
  • You havedental implants that must be covered with dental crowns.
  • You have experienced the canal treatment, and a dental crown must protect the tooth from breaking.

In some cases, dental crowns help resolve such problems as malocclusion or get an aesthetic smile, leading to better health and self-confidence.

What Types of Dental Crowns are Available in Turkey?

When you are sure to get a smile makeover with the help of dental crowns, you must explore more about its types. As mentioned above, it depends on the crowns' materials. And dental clinics in Turkey provide all ranges of dental procedures for installing crowns of all kinds.

Cosmetic dentistry in Turkey uses the following types of dental crowns:

  • All porcelain crowns. The most often used type of dental crown, and the choice of thousands of people prefer it due to its advantages. All porcelain or all ceramic crowns look like your own natural teeth, matching their colour, size, and tooth structure. Besides, it is the most accepted solution for patients who have metal allergies as this type of dental crown is alloy-free. But it requires meticulous maintenance, such dental crowns are not as strong as crowns with metal construction, and they are more expensive compared to metal crowns analogs.
  • Zirconium crowns. It is an utterlynew type of dental crown in dentistry treatments gaining momentum among patients. Zirconium dental crowns give the most pleasant look to your smile and have substantial construction, which means long-lasting durability. Besides, they may be changed during the treatment immediately at the dental clinic without needing to send the crown to a dental laboratory for reshaping. It gives you the aesthetic smile, and the self-assurance once and for all.
  • Porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns (PFMs). Such crowns are much more solid and steady than all porcelain equivalents. They are the most natural-looking, almost the same colour as your teeth, and the shape if you want to. But the metal part of this dental crown type may become visible due to the gum thinning, affecting your smile. PFMs are widely used in dental medicine for back and front teeth treatment.
  • Emax crowns. It is a type of all ceramic crown with a more comfortable position in the mouth and outstanding aesthetic characteristics. They are made of lithium disilicate, which provides excellent toughness, is long-lasting, and looks like natural teeth. That is why it may be one of the finest choices for dental treatment. The only thing that may disappoint in emax crowns is their cost which is much higher than other types of dental crowns, but still, it is worth paying this price.
  • Metal crowns or gold crowns. These crowns, mainly composed of copper, nickel, or chromium, have the highest resistance but the fewest aesthetic appearance. This solution is rarely used but can sometimes be found in posterior teeth treatment.

Choosing the best option for you can install all of these dental crown types in Turkish clinics. While considering the solution for yourself, do not hesitate to discuss all questions with a doctor. Almost every dental clinic in Turkey arranges free consultation, which helps you make up your mind and prepare for dental treatment in full.

Is Dental Good in Turkey?

If you consider getting a dental crown Turkey will change your smile and life for the better. For some reason, dental treatments in Turkish clinics are preferable to thousands of people.

So, why should you have a look at Turkey, considering improving your dental health? Explore the benefits of dental crown installation in Turkish clinics:

  • Affordable prices. People choose to visit Turkey for dental crowns for a lot of benefits. But one and the primary thing is that this country provides cost-saving services. A dental crown in Turkey is much cheaper than in European countries, and you can save up to 70%. The average dental crown cost there is approximately $150. This price includes consultation and services of an experienced dentist, materials, and any dental help you may need during treatment. Moreover, you should not be worried about the quality of dental crowns in Turkey as clinics are well-recognized in the whole world, and some of them provide a warranty for almost five years.
  • Proficient dental teams. All clinics in Turkey meet the highest international medical standards and follow the defined procedures to bring their patients the expected level of services. It is also true for the dental doctors, both the dentist and periodontist, who are involved in the dental crown installation process. They take regular training and do practices to enhance the level of treatment. It is confirmed by the accreditation from the leading foreign associations, for instance, American Dental Association. Moreover, all the team speaks English, which improves the process of understanding.
  • Top materials. Turkish dental clinics apply high-quality materials for crowns, and the newest ones like e max crowns, zirconium porcelain crowns, and also innovative solutions from Nobel Biocare, NTA Switzerland, Bıcon Short İmplant, Ostem İmplant, Straumann. At your request, the clinic centre crew may install all other types of dental crowns, including full metal crowns or metal porcelain crowns. You may discuss with the dentist which material will suit you more in your exact case.
  • Innovative techniques. Dental clinics in Turkey keep up with the latest trends in the field and use modern equipment to arrange an excellent treatment for your teeth. There are up-to-date CT/CAD/CAM technologies (computer tomography/computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacture), 3D scanning equipment, and more at their disposal. It guarantees precise examination, treatment, and desired results without worries and pain.
  • All-inclusive medical packages. Most dental clinics in Turkey provide additional services that are included in the dental crown cost — a detailed treatment plan, materials, and even transportation fees to the medical office.

Moreover, going to Turkey for dental treatment is a magnificent combo of getting a beautiful smile and a fantastic journey to the country with a rich historical background while saving a budget at the same time.

Is Turkey Cheap for Teeth?

As mentioned above, affordable prices are one of the causes people go to Turkey to get dental treatment without compromising the quality. Dental crowns cost in Turkish clinics is lower compared to the same procedures in the US, the UK, and Europe. For instance, you should pay up to 75% lower prices for dental implants in Turkey than in European countries. Despite affordable costs, the dental industry in Turkey shows a great success rate, having a range of clinics with modern machinery and well-skilled staff.

The Turkish government boosts medical tourism in the country and fully supports the dental field. It affects prices for services in dental clinics and makes them so cost-effective for patients from other countries. Furthermore, the value of the Turkish lira (the official currency of Turkey) is lower than the foreign currency like the euro, dollar, or pound. It means that patients from foreign states will benefit due to the currency exchange rate. For instance, you will get approximately 18 liras for 1 euro, 17 liras for 1 US dollar, 20 liras for 1 British pound. Such currency differences will affect your costs for additional services in the chosen dental clinic or in Turkey generally.

Besides, the teeth procedures in Turkey, especially dental crowns, are cheaper, and medical tourists will get an edge in visiting this country. They may combine their dream vacation with touristic places with superior medical treatment and spend less. Prices for accommodations, meals, and entertainment in Turkey are eye-pleasant for foreigners from the UK, the US, and Europe.

What is a Dental Crown Cost in Turkey?

While dental operations in European countries are a little bit expensive, the question of the similar procedure cost in Turkey is the first that comes to mind when looking for the optimal solution.

How Long Do Dental Crowns from Turkey Last?

Dental crowns in Turkey are made of certified materials that guarantee confidence while chewing and that your smile will please you for years. But there is no answer on the exact period it will last. The lifetime of dental crowns from Turkish clinics depends on many factors. It includes the type of dental crown, the patient’s eating preferences, and even oral hygiene. The average range of dental crowns is 5-15 years, but still, their durability may be changed, and some patients may wear them for even 20 years or more.

As for dental crown type, you may expect that zirconium crowns will serve you for 10-15 years; porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns will last for ten years in case of appropriate dental routine; gold crowns — from 5 to 20 years.

Some factors may influence the lifespan of dental crowns:

  • Clenching or grinding behaviour (bruxism). It is common for many patients to grind their teeth during the daytime and sleep. This habit may cause the wearing of the dental crowns surface and, thus, affects its long-lasting characteristics.
  • Dental hygiene. The plaque between the gum and the crown may be why your crown is worn out. You should follow the simple rules of oral hygiene, like brushing your teeth twice a day and flossing to protect your natural and artificial teeth from damage and extend their functionality.
  • Teeth health. If the treated tooth is in bad condition, it may be the cause your dental crown will last for not so long as you expected. Healthy gum and jaw bone are critical to having a stable dental crown. That is why it is so important to draw attention to the health of your mouth and visit the dentist’s office regularly.
  • Aftercare and visits to the dentist’s clinic. A health check-up is an efficient way to support your physical abilities and well-being. It is related to the health of your teeth and crown conditions as well. While visiting the dentist, he or she will inspect the changes in dental crowns stability and structures and provide recommendations on proper care.

How Are Dental Crowns Installed in Turkey?

Installation of dental crowns in Turkey may be a lifetime decision that will present you with a natural-looking smile, dental health, money-saving, and an impression of visiting a new country. Before you are going to make this journey, find out more about each step you should take during the dental crowns procedure in Turkey.

It supposes two stages — examination of your case and dental condition, and dental crowns fit itself. Generally, there are 10-15 days between these stages, but some Turkish dental centres provide these services in just five days to reduce the term of your stay in Turkey. It does not affect the quality of work but gives the possibility to enjoy food and your new smile in the shortest time.

Here are the steps of the first stage of dental crown installation in Turkey:

  • the appointment at the dentist’s office to check out the condition of your teeth and scope of work, determination of the crown type to be placed, and materials;
  • preparation for a dental crown — root canal treatment, and grinding of a tooth;
  • creating a dental crown pattern that fully corresponds to the precise shape of the patient’s jaw and teeth.

This stage lasts up to 1 hour. Then, the dentist sends the tooth model to the dental laboratory to manufacture the permanent individually-made crown. At this phase, you may be proposed to wear a temporary crown before the final installation of a permanent solution.

The second stage of dental crown installation involves the placement of the crown on the prepared tooth with the help of bonding materials. It may require local anaesthesia, and takes 1 hour to hold and polish the dental crown into place.

Therefore, you will get your perfect smile and healthy teeth in 5 days, appreciating the Turkey hospitality and sightseeing all together.
