Zirconia crown installation in Turkey: Reviews from Real Patients

What worried me most was how such a large number of new crowns would look and feel. But my dentist was very attentive. He carefully checked my bite, matched the colour of the zirconia crowns to my teeth, and showed me the result before fitting them. In the end, I had more than seven crowns fitted, and I now feel better than I expected. The support from the clinic is also great — they’re always on hand. There were no additional costs. I’d advise future patients to ask straight away how many days the treatment will take, and to make sure they allow an extra two days for flights.

If you’re planning to have crowns fitted at this clinic, the first thing I’d mention is the cost. The dentist was a great help; he carefully showed me all the colour options for my monolithic zirconia crowns and helped me make my choice. The staff were also very good. After the procedure, I was given clear aftercare instructions, and I’m generally feeling just as I expected. Everything went smoothly. However, there were additional costs not included in the initial quote. So my main piece of advice is: take more money with you, because it actually ends up costing more than you expect.

Before the procedure, the doctor took the time to explain what to expect, which helped me prepare myself mentally. The partial denture placement took only two visits, which was very convenient. The support continued after the procedure, as the clinic was always available to answer any questions, which I consider important. The only thing to take into account is that I incurred additional costs after the initial payment. Overall, I rate the doctor's and team's work as good, but not excellent, so I give it 4 out of 5.

We had a crown and a filling done promptly at the clinic. The coordinator Valeria was very helpful and advised with everything I asked her about and translated everything to the doctor promptly. The cost was the same as agreed. I have already contacted Bookimed many times and they always help me with appointments and treatments

What struck me most was just how accurately the dentist matched the colour – the new zirconia crowns don’t stand out at all against my natural teeth. I had more than seven crowns fitted in a single session, so the scale of the work was truly impressive. It’s only been 15 days. The colour was matched perfectly. I’m still in the process of getting used to them, and the sensations are quite unusual. Even though it’s been two weeks, I’m still getting used to the new bite when chewing and I notice that food sometimes gets stuck between my teeth. It’s a bit of a nuisance, although the clinic staff assure me that this is normal during the early recovery period. Otherwise, the surgeon’s work and the staff’s attitude deserve the highest praise. The main thing is to be patient at first.

I loved everything about it. Excellent doctor, excellent medical staff, very nice interpreter counsellors, drivers, wonderful clinic and equipment!

The clinic is super, the doctors are very attentive, they do things quickly and very well.Dr Tugche and her assistant did everything top class. Very well coordinated team of technicians and doctors. I would like to especially mention Alina and Natalia, they are very helpful with all questions, even those not related to the clinic. The transfer is excellent and even to any place we ask. The accommodation is deluxe, one bedroom flat, swimming pool, fitness, quiet, the flat has everything for complete comfort, the complex even has security. The people around are very welcoming and friendly. I do not regret one bit that I accepted your offer to WestDent Clinic. And a huge thank you to Christina, my Bookimed coordinator, who organised all this for us.

I want to share my experience with you. From the first minute when I decided to go to a dental clinic in Turkey, they answered me immediately. They listened to my requirements and offered several options. Our choice was 100% successful. The team of the Adam and Eve clinic and the translator were very attentive to us and professionals in their field. We went to get implants for our son and all three did it). 12 implants. Everything was done quickly and painlessly. Thank you so much for your work. We are waiting 3 months for them to come back and install crowns. If you have a problem with your teeth, don’t be afraid, the doctors there are excellent. I thank all the clinic staff for the warm welcome and excellent work. 5+++

Everything was done promptly quickly and beautifully. No additional and unnecessary services were imposed. The staff met me with a smile and helped me to solve all my treatment problems. They found me a personal interpreter who was always in touch with me. The punctuality and high professionalism of the doctors pleasantly surprised me.

Firstly, the clinic is not called Mavidenta, it’s called VSC clinic. And after doing some research it’s also known under a few other names. The first day i waited 6 hours for an xray. If you transfer payment, expect to have multiple staff hounding you all day everyday until the payment clears their account. Even if you provide receipts they want you to transfer AGAIN. That is, they want you to pay twice. And then still expect you to withdraw from an ATM and pay cash. The hotel staff were nice, but it was extremely basic accomodation, tiny room, in a very Turkish district without shops or restaurants and no one speaks english. When the dentist shaves your teeth and you have very limited ability to eat anything, expect to go hungry. I went without food for 3 days and no one tells you whats going on. Just late night visits to the clinic to wait for hours every time. I felt like they were holding my teeth to ransom even though i provided proof of payment. I actually felt they were trying to scam me. My quote included 7 nights accomodation but the hotel said only 5 nights are paid for. The clinic ignored me every time i questioned this. In hindsight, i should've done more research and chosen a better place. I let the booking agent recommend the dentist and that was a big mistake. Ive been made to feel as though i cant contact them if any issues arise in the future. Guarantee or no guarantee. They are all about the money and clients are just numbers. No I DO NOT recommend Mavidenta. Overall, it was a very stressful, painful week and i would not do it again.

In August 2024, my husband and I decided to go to Istanbul to get to know the clinics for his mum's treatment and at the same time to solve my teeth problem. It was not easy to find one in such a huge offer. I turned to Bookamed service. Catherine helped me to choose a clinic and I am glad that I made my choice in favour of Tower Dental Clinic. The clinic welcomed me very warmly, the staff is quite young but competent. I had an implant and a crown fitted. Everything went smoothly on both visits. I thank the clinic and my Dr Furkan for my teeth 😁

Staff members were very friendly, the level of language barrier was extremely low, so low that I felt at ease with all the staff members. I was seen to as soon as I arrived and that was very excellent. Everything was explained to me very clearly and I was given the opportunity to ask as many questions as I wanted.

Our treatment consists of two visits, so far we are half way to our goal. The first visit left a positive experience of treatment and communication with the staff.
