Dental Implants in Turkey: Single, All-on-4 and All-on-6
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing teeth. Implants are designed to look and function similarly to natural teeth, with case-by-case longevity dependent on oral hygiene, bone health and clinician follow-up. Turkey has become one of the leading destinations for implant dentistry, with clinics routinely placing thousands of implants per year using the same premium brands available in the UK.
Whether you need a single implant to replace one missing tooth or a full-arch solution like All-on-4 or All-on-6, Turkish clinics offer the full range of implant options. Most cases require two visits: one for implant placement and one for crown fitting, typically 3–6 months apart.
The Treatment Process Step by Step
- ✓CBCT/3D scan and consultation
- ✓Implant placement (Straumann, Nobel Biocare, MIS or Osstem)
- ✓Abutment and crown
- ✓Temporary teeth where required
- ✓Post-operative check-ups
Recovery Timeline
Single implant: 2–3 days for placement, return visit 3–6 months later for crown. All-on-4/6: 5–7 days for surgery and temporary teeth, return visit 4–6 months for permanent prosthesis.

SmileCompare connects UK patients with personally-vetted Turkish clinics offering E-max, porcelain, composite and laminate veneers — your price is confirmed in writing before you travel.
Veneers are thin shells bonded to the front of your teeth to improve their appearance. They can correct chips, gaps, discolouration and minor misalignment. Turkish clinics offer both composite veneers (applied directly) and porcelain or E-max veneers (fabricated in a dental lab and bonded to the tooth).
E-max (lithium disilicate) veneers are widely used for their aesthetics and strength; longevity depends on care and case. A full set of veneers is typically completed in 5–7 days across two appointments: preparation and fitting.
The Treatment Process Step by Step
- ✓Consultation and smile design
- ✓Tooth preparation
- ✓Temporary veneers
- ✓Lab-fabricated porcelain or E-max veneers
- ✓Final bonding and adjustment
Recovery Timeline
5–7 days in Turkey. Two main appointments: preparation and fitting.

Zirconia and PFM
A dental crown is a cap placed over a damaged or weakened tooth to restore its shape, strength and appearance. Crowns are also used on top of dental implants. Turkish clinics commonly use zirconia crowns and porcelain-fused-to-metal (PFM) crowns.
Zirconia is widely used because it is biocompatible and aesthetically close to natural teeth in most cases — your clinician will recommend the material best suited to your case. A crown case is typically completed within 5–7 days.
The Treatment Process Step by Step
- ✓Consultation and assessment
- ✓Tooth preparation
- ✓Digital impressions
- ✓Lab-fabricated crown (zirconia or PFM)
