An Unbeatable Dental Experience
From beginning to end, this was head and shoulders above any experience I’ve had in any medical field—let alone dentistry. I came across Dental Centre Turkey through a Google search and was initially hesitant about travelling abroad for treatment. I needed a simple E-max onlay for my upper left molar. In London, the dentist told me it would take over two weeks to do the procedure after finding an available slot in their busy schedule—and the cost was prohibitive to begin with.
I got in touch via WhatsApp and received a response very quickly. I was given a personalised treatment plan and assured I could be seen as soon as I booked my flights to Antalya.
The clinic picked me up and dropped me off from my hotel of choice—the car was beautiful, the driver was friendly, and everything was perfectly on time. It honestly felt like a celebrity experience.
Upon arriving at Dental Centre Turkey, I was greeted by warm, welcoming staff. They offered me a drink from their menu of coffee, tea, and milkshakes (which are delicious, by the way).
After an x-ray, I was taken to a consultation room where my coordinator, Deniz, walked me through the process for the coming days. He was very friendly and immediately put me at ease in what is naturally a nerve-wracking situation.
The dentist, Dr. Havva Yildirim, then reviewed my x-rays and discussed the treatment plan with me. In London, I had been told I needed a filling in the tooth next to the one receiving the onlay—but the dentist here didn’t believe that was necessary. I appreciated that only essential treatment was recommended.
That same day, I had the procedure, which involved taking a mould of the tooth and preparing it for the onlay to be cemented in. Dr. Yildirim numbed the area and the whole experience was completely painless.
I’ve had dental work done in the US, UK, and Israel—and this was by far the most pain-free procedure I’ve ever had. It was honestly so easy.
After the appointment, the staff even helped me stop at a pharmacy on the way back to my hotel to pick up any medication I might need for discomfort.
Two days later, I returned to the clinic for the onlay fitting. Once again, the experience was outstanding—no waiting, no pain, quick and easy, and the result looked great.
As I was leaving, everyone at the clinic said a friendly goodbye. Even though I was only there for two days, it genuinely felt like they cared about both my treatment and my overall experience.
Without a doubt, I would recommend Dental Centre Turkey to anyone looking to enhance their smile or receive treatment that may be difficult or expensive in their home country.
From start to finish, this was a top-notch experience—and if I ever need anything else for my teeth, I’ll definitely be back.
