Dental tourism in Turkey: Guidance for patients on implants and cosmetic procedures

International patients seeking dental services in Turkey are advised to prioritize detailed treatment plans and clear communication regarding implant brands and costs. Key considerations include understanding the specific implant system, the clinical team, and whether quotations cover the implant, connecting components, and final restorations.

Esnan Dental Clinics was recently recognized by the Straumann Group as a Highest Volume Clinic in Türkiye for 2025, reporting over 15,000 implant solutions.

In response to research in the British Dental Journal highlighting patient confusion regarding cosmetic procedures, Istanbul-based Maltepe Dental Clinic has emphasized the importance of distinguishing between veneers and zirconia crowns. While veneers cover only the front surface of a tooth, crowns encompass the entire tooth and require more permanent tooth reduction. Clinicians stress that providing clear explanations is essential for valid informed consent, a standard upheld by the General Dental Council.
