For UK Patients
What Is Smile Design in Turkey?
Smile design in Turkey is a personalised dental treatment-planning process — not a single procedure or a standard treatment package.
It considers the appearance and function of your smile as a whole, including tooth shape, colour, proportions, symmetry, gum line, bite, existing restorations and facial features.
Depending on your clinical needs, a smile design plan may include teeth whitening, composite bonding, porcelain veneers, dental crowns, gum contouring, orthodontic treatment or replacement of missing teeth. Not every patient needs veneers or crowns, and the most conservative suitable option should be considered first.
The appropriate treatment can only be determined after reviewing the health of your teeth and gums, your bite, available enamel, existing dental work and your long-term maintenance needs. Photographs and X-rays can support a preliminary review, but they do not replace an in-person clinical examination.
Smile Design Turkey helps UK patients understand treatment options, indicative costs, materials, clinical considerations, visit planning and aftercare. Patients may also request a preliminary clinical assessment from our disclosed clinical partner, Taki Dent in Antalya.

Treatment Options
What Treatment Are You Considering?
Veneers
Porcelain or composite veneers to improve the colour, shape and symmetry of your teeth for a natural-looking aesthetic result.
Zirconium Crowns
Full ceramic crowns offering strength and aesthetics for teeth that are heavily restored, damaged or part of a full-mouth plan.
Dental Implants
Long-term replacement of missing teeth using dental implants, where clinically appropriate — for single gaps, multiple missing teeth or complex restorative cases.
All-on-4
A full arch of fixed teeth supported by four implants — an alternative to removable dentures for patients with extensive tooth loss.
All-on-6
A full arch restoration using six implants, offering increased stability for patients requiring a comprehensive full-mouth solution.
Teeth Whitening
Professional in-clinic whitening to remove staining and brighten your natural teeth — often combined with a broader smile treatment.
Prices & Costs
Understanding Treatment Costs
Dental treatment costs in Turkey vary considerably depending on the treatment required, the number of teeth involved, the materials used and the complexity of the case. It is not possible to give accurate prices without knowing the specifics of your case.
What we can tell you is that for many patients, the overall cost — including travel and accommodation — can still be significantly lower than equivalent private dental treatment in the UK for the same scope of work. However, cost should be one factor among several.
A personalised quote based on your actual case will always be more accurate and useful than any general price guide.

Why UK Patients Consider Turkey
Why UK Patients Consider Dental Treatment in Turkey
Potential cost differences compared with equivalent UK private treatment
Direct travel access between the UK and Antalya
Coordinated visit planning with Taki Dent’s international patient team
Some treatments may be coordinated within one visit, while implant and complex cases may require multiple visits
What to Consider First
Approaching Treatment Responsibly
Always request a written treatment plan outlining exactly what will be done and with which materials
Be wary of very cheap "one price fits all" quotes that make no reference to clinical suitability
Understand that some treatments may require multiple visits or follow-up care
Discuss aftercare expectations before committing — not all complications are covered by follow-up care abroad
Photos and X-rays shared in advance lead to more accurate and realistic quotes
