Tell our coordination team which treatment interests you and what you would like to ask. You can use WhatsApp, prepare a message on our contact page or email us directly. An initial enquiry does not commit you to treatment.
Build your consultation guideYou can start by asking questions online. Your dentist can only confirm the recommendation and quotation after a clinical assessment, relevant imaging and a discussion of your options.
Build your consultation guideThe length and number of visits depend on the treatment and your clinical needs. Implant treatment may require separate visits. Confirm your schedule with the team before booking flights.
Plan your visitCheck your written quotation for the hotel nights, transfers and companion arrangements included. Ask about any extra charges.
Plan your visitBefore committing, agree who to contact, how reviews will work and who is responsible for any further treatment or travel costs. Read our aftercare guide for questions to ask.
Plan your aftercareStarting prices: Osstem implant from £399 for one tooth, including the implant fixture, abutment and final crown; Megagen AnyRidge implant from £450 per implant; IPS e.max veneer from £260 per tooth; zirconia crown from £160 per crown. All-on-4 starts from £3,200 in total, including 8 implants, 20 zirconia teeth and all abutments, across both arches. All-on-6 starts from £4,800 for both arches, including 12 implants and two fixed bridges; confirm its bridge material. These are non-binding starting estimates, not all-inclusive prices. Ask for an itemised quote confirming temporary teeth, treatment stages, any extra procedures, travel and follow-up. Your dentist must assess suitability before confirming the plan and complete price.
Understand the costsBest Smile Turkey helps with enquiries and travel arrangements through our partner dental clinics in Antalya. A separate dental provider is responsible for your assessment, treatment and follow-up care. Discuss your proposed clinic and treating team privately with our coordinator. Before booking or paying, check the clinic’s address and the names of the dentists who will treat you.
Understand our roleWhatsApp and email links prepare a message for our coordination team, which you can review before sending. You can explain the treatment you are considering and ask about practical arrangements. This is an enquiry; a clinical assessment and confirmed booking are separate steps.
Start an enquiryRequest the treating provider’s details and written terms covering the proposed treatment, itemised costs, payment schedule, cancellation or refund arrangements, and what happens if the clinical plan changes. Confirm aftercare responsibilities and any possible return-travel costs. Take time to ask about anything that is unclear.
Understand the costsStart with a private conversation with our coordination team about your proposed partner clinic. Ask the treating dental provider for the names of the dentists responsible for each stage, their qualifications and registration details, and how to verify these with the relevant registration body. Confirm the clinic address and ask to discuss clinical questions with the treating dentist before agreeing to treatment.
Check your treating providerBest Smile Turkey provides a five-year guarantee on treatments over £2,000. For treatments over £2,000, if a problem arises during the five-year guarantee period, corrective treatment is provided free of charge. Flights and hotel accommodation for the guarantee-related return visit are also covered. Keep the guarantee dates, clinical contact and agreed arrangements in writing. Confirm routine reviews, UK care, transfers and the booking or reimbursement process separately. A treatment guarantee does not promise a particular clinical result or a complication-free recovery.
Questions about warranty termsWe do not list a UK aftercare partner. If UK care is offered, ask for the practice name, what care it provides, how to get an appointment and who pays. Get these details in writing, and speak to your usual dentist about ongoing care before travelling.
Plan UK follow-upFor a treatment complaint, ask the clinic that treated you for its complaints contact and procedure. Ask Best Smile Turkey who handles concerns about enquiries, hotels or transfers. Keep your treatment plan and messages, and ask when you should expect a reply.
Agree clinical contactsAsk the treating clinic how to obtain your treatment summary, relevant images, implant or restoration details and written care instructions. Confirm a secure transfer method and the receiving dentist’s details before sharing records. An initial website or WhatsApp enquiry does not require your medical history or scans.
Prepare your treatment recordsThe guides and planning tools provide educational information and help you prepare questions. They cannot diagnose a condition, confirm suitability or replace a dentist’s examination, relevant imaging and discussion of risks and alternatives. Your treating dentist must explain and agree your individual clinical plan with you.
About our website informationYes. The Osstem option starts from £399 for one tooth, including the implant fixture, abutment and final crown. Other implant systems may have different inclusions. Confirm appointments, tests and any additional procedures in your written quote.
Explore dental implantsImplant treatment may involve separate visits with a healing period in between. Your dentist must confirm the number of visits and timing for your individual case.
Explore dental implantsNo. Depending on the situation, a bridge, removable denture or another approach may be worth discussing. A consultation should cover alternatives as well as implants.
Explore dental implantsNo. Veneers cover the front of a tooth, while crowns cover the whole tooth. Ask your dentist to name the restoration proposed for each tooth.
Explore dental veneersSome veneers require removal of tooth surface. The amount depends on your teeth and the planned restoration. Ask for a clear explanation before agreeing to treatment.
Explore dental veneersDiscuss your preferred shade and shape with the dentist. The plan should take account of what you want, the condition of your teeth and how they bite together.
Explore dental veneersOne arch means either the upper or lower set of teeth. Our All-on-4 starting price of £3,200 is the total for both arches and includes 8 implants, 20 zirconia teeth and all abutments, across both arches. All-on-6 has a separate both-arch starting price. Confirm temporary teeth, treatment stages and any additional costs in your itemised quotation.
Explore all-on-4 & all-on-6Not necessarily. Ask whether temporary and final restorations are separate stages, what materials are proposed, and whether each stage is included in the total.
Explore all-on-4 & all-on-6All-on-4 and All-on-6 describe four or six implants per arch, not the number of replacement teeth. Your dentist must assess each jaw and explain the proposed positions, restoration, reasons and alternatives.
Explore all-on-4 & all-on-6Yes. A tooth is normally shaped to create space for the crown. Discuss the amount of preparation and any alternatives with your dentist.
Explore crowns & bridgesNo. The right option depends on the condition of your tooth and your goals. Ask about less invasive alternatives where appropriate.
Explore crowns & bridgesCheck the number of teeth, restoration material, temporary crowns, fitting appointments and any additional treatment. A bridge quote should also explain how many units are involved. Do not compare a single-crown price with a complete bridge.
Explore crowns & bridges“Turkey teeth” is an informal search phrase, not one dental treatment. Veneers and crowns treat existing teeth; implants support replacement teeth. Ask which procedure is proposed for each tooth and why. There is no single “Turkey teeth” price: compare the treatment, materials, tooth count and written inclusions.
Compare treatment prices and package scopeThere is no single lifespan for veneers, crowns, bonding or implant-supported teeth. The treatment, material, natural teeth, daily care and clinical reviews matter. A published average or treatment guarantee is not a prediction for your own dental work. Ask about maintenance, repairs, replacement and the evidence behind any lifespan claim.
Understand restoration lifespan claimsAFTER TREATMENT
