Hello, my name is Ortaç Gop. I am a dentist and partner of Dental Park Yalova. I was born in Ankara in 1984. I graduated from Ankara Gazi University in 2007. I have worked in many aesthetic and digital dentistry practices. My greatest happiness is to see my patients smiling at the end of the day. I am happy to be part of a large team that offers dental treatments in Turkey.

With the rapidly growing health tourism, a tourist coming to Yalova sees that the total costs such as hotel, plane transfer and dental treatment are less than the cost of dental treatment alone in any European country. In addition, during the time he spends in our country, he discovers many places to visit and receives both holiday and dental care.

Most of our patients who come from abroad for treatment prefer our Implant and Hollywood Smile treatments. It is used for implant treatments, known as dental screwing, and zirconium, porcelain crown and bridge treatments that replace the extracted tooth.

Aesthetically speaking, smile design and Hollywood Smile treatment are very popular and especially preferred by the young generation.
