We make choices every day and when it comes to holidays, most people act way more selective than their regular daily rush. Many criteria are reviewed before and being affordable is one of the most important among all. There are really few countries that you can add to your list whenever you prepare one and one of them is Turkey. As Turkey provides you the opportunity to pay a visit whenever you want, you can plan your holiday in all 4 seasons. As a Mediterranean country, Turkey offers you variety of beaches with blue flags and famous for their beautiful warm sands and offers you with reasonable prices. And of course, there is Antalya, a city which hosted more than 15 million tourists last summer and according to Turkish Ministry of Health, 300.000 of them were there for Health Tourism which is a significant number. 

Dental Tourism and Costs


Dental Tourism and Costs

We can say that the last 2-3 years were not easy for the Turkish economy. Various political developments and the tremendous drop at the value of Turkish Lira provided some little hard times,but also became the reason for the development of other sectors like “Dental Tourism or more generally we can say Health Tourism”. When we compare Turkey with other alternatives, it is an undeniable fact that Turkey is coming up with it’s strongly competitive price advantage. Dental tourism in Turkey is rapidly improving day by day and Turkish clinics are offering wide range of professional in-clinic services which are both cosmetic and non-cosmetic.

Data's show that the amount of health tourists who visits the country for healthcare services increases rapidly by every year.So it should not be surprising as Turkey is among the top 10 Health Tourism countries and earned more than $7 billion in medical tourism revenue in 2018. With over 1300 hospitals (majority of them are private) operate in Turkey under the supervision of Turkish Ministry of Health. 

When we do the math, Turkey appears to be way much reasonable for both European and American customers. For European customers, the transformation is way much easier when compared to American customers as there are direct flights to both Antalya and Istanbul from Europe which are very popular health tourism destinations. Especially patients from Great Britain and Germany are very satisfied about the prices and the treatment they receive.  Although the decrease of Turkish Lira makes Turkey a desirable option for American customers too.Maybe not for small procedures but more comprehensive treatments.

The Affordability Factor.

The prices are much more affordable at Turkish dental clinics as compared to countries. 

Because of this factor, plenty of Tourists visit Turkey “where the quality and the most affordable prices meet” not only from UK but also different places of The World such as Germany, France, Switzerland and Holland. You could check more info about prices from veneers turkey

When it comes to implants, the prices are listed below (average) :

Bone graft €200-€250
Sinus lifting €500
Implant metal fused porcelain crown €120
Dental Implant Abutment €100
Titanium dental implant €400

Language 

It can be easily said that English as a spoken foreign language holds the majority but do not let this make you cross Turkey yet. There are also clinics in Antalya, Istanbul and Izmir in which you can receive treatment in German, French, Italian and Arabic. 
For touristic purposes, you can be sure that you will be satisfied from the overall tourism personal who is serving you. 

How to Choose?

While searching for the “True Clinic”, you should be selective about the Clinic and the Dentist. It is never easy to choose a dentist so let’s make things a little bit easier !

About Dentists

• An experienced dentist is the one you should choose and make sure he or she is registered to Turkish Dental Association. 
• Feel free to ask him/her that if he/she speaks your language and also you can ask him about the equipment and the materials that he/she uses.

About Clinics

The Clinics located in Turkey contain high quality equipment and high levels of hygiene. You can easily compare them with North America or Western Europe. As the country is popular among the health tourism patients, the staff knowledge and amount of professional practice is always adequate and satisfying. Moreover, the majority holds ISO 9000,TEMOS and JCI which makes most of the patients comfortable as they will receive world-class treatment. 

Unlike the other countries, clinics in Turkey provide free services such as: 

• Airport and hotel transfers
• Assistance with flights and accommodation
• All-inclusive packages
• Discounts for variable procedures (veeners etc.)
• Free accommodation or discounts at nearby hotels
• Free consultations in your home country

that makes them even more desirable but keep in mind that those “Free Services” are not available for small treatments. 

Turkey as a Touristic Country

When it comes to History, Culture, Cuisine and Shopping, it is nearly impossible to find an country as generous as Turkey.The country has a lot to offer and not only in Istanbul but also with Antalya.

So many dental patients extend their trip when they come to Turkey as a dental holiday and enjoy the warm climate. Many of the best dental clinics in Turkey are located in Istanbul, which is a popular tourist destination in its own right. For visitors who prefer heading to beach and enjoy the Mediterranean climate, there are also clinics in the south-coast city of Antalya which is an option should not be ignored.
