All-on-6 Dental Implants Muratpasa

My experience at Perla took place between October 2023 and April 2024. The short story - I walked in with 1000 problems and walked out with a full set of teeth and a smile I no longer needed to be ashamed of. One of the best decisions I have ever made. If you are having doubts about Perla - don't. I honestly could not be happier. For the details read the long version. I waited a month from completition before writing and posting. We chose Perla Dental Centre after a long process of checking reviews and seeking advice. My wife went first and will write her own review but I was a far more serious case. All my life I have suffered with dental health and structural problems around my gums, teeth and jaw. Back in the 1970s I was in the hands of prehistoric dentistry - and they got almost everything wrong. It gave me a fear of dentists and with an additional low pain threshold, I am a difficult patient for dentists to deal with. Over the years my teeth fell apart. At one stage I went 15+ years without seeing a dentist. By the time I reached my 40s I had two partials - top and bottom - and when I hit my 50s the teeth the partials were resting on had begun to collapse. I would go to dentists in the UK and they would tell me I would soon need dentures. They didn't even bother offering me implants because the process was so expensive. I wanted to know because I did not want cheap dentures and having received 3 quotes I knew it was approximately £30,000. No way could I afford that. This led me to looking at Turkey as my way to a healthy mouth. So glad I did. The total journey from my first appointment to the final check up took six months and one day. The key surgery (extractions, 13 implants, sinus lift and bone graft) took place on a single day. It was performed by Onur Ademhan. Prior to surgery he warned me that because of loss of bone, and other structural problems he may need to fix me over two surgeries - but in the end his skillful hands managed to avoid that and he got it done in one. The extraction process and implant placement took place in a day. It wasn't pleasant - I had about 14 extractions and 13 implants - so I am not going to pretend it was comfortable. But it was handled with care, professionalism and a lot of after care. There were no problems. It is important to mention the 'after care'. From start to finish I felt like I was being looked after like family. You are put in the hands of what I suppose is a personal case manager. Mine was Thomas. He was incredible. He arranges everything about your care - from the airport pick up to the airport drop off. Appointments/ taxi to the clinic from the hotel / making sure you have the medication you need/ answering any questions. five star service all the way. Perla did offer me temporary teeth for the six month interval, but again, because of my own issues with dentists and gagging when foreign objects are placed in my mouth I chose to be without. The six month interval was not as bad as feared. After the first two weeks as the wounds healed, I was eating pretty well. I gained rather than lost weight (which is quite funny). You cannot eat foods that need proper chewing - but as I got used to the situation - I was pretty comfortable eating a range of foods. In addition - for the first time in decades, I had no infections, no pain, and no disease. My mouth was not just healing - and it may have been toothless, but it was healthy again. Six months almost to the day, I returned. They took a panoramic X-ray - and let me know the implants had all taken well. Upon my return I needed more prep work. They need to place healing caps on top of the implants. Then the measurement and testing begins. All of this was carried out by Dr Tahsin Dayaniclier. Again - the professionalism was first class. I went in several times as they prepared the final teeth for me. There was always advice and consultation throughout the process. The colour of the teeth, the shape, the size - all the time I was given advice from professionals. Never did I feel coerced or directed. They wanted to listen - but they also wanted to share their expertise. These guys wanted perfection. There was one unexpected visit - because they decided my gums needed cutting back. So I was handed to a gum / laser technician for additional work. It took an hour - and the injections meant I could not feel a thing. This was done because they are constantly trying to get the best result they can. And they don't cut corners. They even apologised to me in advance because they felt they may not be able to give me the perfect 100% straight jawline and smile. They knew my Jaw and bite was badly messed up - and they said they would do their best to make it look as good as they could. It was so unneccessary - they were clearly working to the highest professional standard and cannot be faulted. The result looks pefect to any normal person in the street. It just shows the high standards they set for themselves that it wasn't perfect enough for them. That second visit to Turkey lasted a week and a bit. I extended my stay for a few days (my choice) to give my mouth additional time between visits to heal. I think there were five visits to the clinic in total - including the final 'all okay' check up before I went home. Half way through that week they gave me temporary trial teeth to use. This was the first time in 6 months I had been able to chew. I could feel from what they had given me the fitting was right. Then finally there was a trial fitting. The look was great. And the following day I turned up to have them placed permanetly. The top was all one section, the bottom was split into two. I had teeth again. A couple of days later I flew home. It took a little while to get used to my new mouth (new mouth - new rules). But having had the teeth now for a month, I can honestly say I could not be happier. I have NEVER had a smile like this. And it is DECADES since I have been able to eat without pain, discomfort or food getting stuck in holes. I have never experienced such a clean full bite before. Sure the sensation is different because I no longer have any natural teeth to feel with - but even so, the deal is worth it. They also say you lose some strength in your bite - but I think that is deceiving. It is decades since I had a proper, strong bite - so the teeth I have now are far stronger and the bite more powerful than anything I have had for ages. It isn't just about the way it looks. I can eat anything with no discomfort. My mouth is healthy. It is a pleasure to eat again. All thanks to Perla. Thoroughly recommended without hesistation. And a special thank you to Thomas - I know I must have been tough - but he never faltered.... David

Transparent consultative approach with clear set of options and benefits made for easy decision making. Well equipped spotless dental suites, helpful staff and great pain management. Excellent attention to detail, great outcome with 24 crowns and 4 root canals. Took a short time for teeth to settle after treatment, now very comfortable and look great.

I have nothing but the highest praise for this company and all its people. Their knowledge, skill, attention to detail and communication are all first-rate. I began my research into implants in Antalya with a sort of form email enquiry to several clinics. Orthodent's reply impressed me the most, particularly with regard to my reference to a medical condition. They were clearly prepared to talk themselves out of a job by advising against any surgery if I could not meet certain conditions. After getting current information from my doctor here in UK they (and I) were happy to proceed. So I flew out to Antalya to meet them. I was immediately impressed by the spotless, modern premises and courteous and helpful staff. Then I spent more than an hour with both Doctors Cakin, who arranged for Panoramic X-rays and discussed the findings and their advice in clear terms, without the slightest hint of a 'hard sell'. They advised a full All on 6 for the lower jaw, but thought that this would be too risky for the very thin bones in parts of of my upper jaw, and advised me to go for All on 4 there. They began work immediately on the upper jaw, followed 2 days later by the lower. At various stages I thought I could detect a lot of extra time being spent to make sure the tiniest details of the work were being done absolutely precisely. Obviously, a procedure like this isn't 100% pain-free, but it's fair to say that it was very nearly so, with the help of some very effective painkillers. (For anyone having such extensive work, I can heartily recommend a diet of scrambled eggs for breakfast and lentil soup for lunch and dinner.) Once the implants were in my jaws, work began to manufacture and install the temporary crowns. Again, the work was painstakingly precise, and now, 2 weeks later, entirely satisfactory. I was called back for a review after a few days, and again just before I left Antalya, with both doctors present, when they were clearly prepared to spend all the time that was necessary to ensure the work was progressing well (it was), the pain was manageable (I cut the painkillers down to 1 a day by about Day 5, and stopped them altogether by Day 8) and that I understood everything I needed to know about probable progress and oral hygiene and so on (let's hope so). I am due back for the final crowns in perhaps 4 months, though if things continue to go so well I may defer my return to a rather cooler season of the year. I will not have the slightest hesitation about returning to Orthodent. I highly recommend them to anyone reading this, as I already have to the surprising number of relatives and friends and slight acquaintances who have enquired about my experience. Thank you Dr. Ece and Dr. Bugra

I’m on holiday right now staying at a hotel loads of people use when they’re getting treatment at Over the Moon Smile. Honestly, I had zero plans to even think about getting my teeth done. But after hearing so many people by the pool going on about how amazing the service was and how professional everyone is, I thought I’d check it out myself. I walked over (it’s less than a mile), knocked on the door and they welcomed me in like they’d known me for ages. They gave me a free X-ray, took some professional photos, and did a really detailed check-up and consultation. Best part? There was absolutely no sales pitch or pressure at all – just a friendly “hope to see you again” when I left. I thought it over and decided to just go for the treatment the next day while I was still here on holiday, and honestly, I couldn’t be happier. Everything was so organised, the staff were brilliant, and the results were better than I ever expected. If you’re not sure or a bit nervous, just book a cheap holiday and see for yourself, I’m so glad I did!!

I have recently arrived home from having my treatment at Dentatur, my Doctor throughout my time was called Ozlem, she was extremely patient, caring and considerate, I am extremely grateful for her support and care, Ozlem explained to me on each occasion what we would need to do on each visit, I felt confident and comfortable and feeling completely safe in her hands, I can highly recommend Dentatur to anyone thinking and considering any dental work, thank you Ozlem as well as Dentatur I appreciate you all, Paul H

I recommend this dental clinic to anyone looking for quality dental care. The staff here are friendly, professional, and highly skilled, and they always go the extra mile to ensure that their patients are comfortable and well-informed. Whether you need a routine check-up or a more complex procedure, you can trust that you are in good hands at this clinic.

Due to an additional member of my family attending at the last minute, we couldn’t stay at the planned hotel but Honor was a saint and sorted it all out for us and we were placed at a lovely hotel. As promised a taxi was awaiting our arrival and took us straight to A-dent where I was greeted by Honor himself and a lovely team. Honor talked me through every stage and then guided me as we proceeded with the scans. I met my surgeon who firstly looked at the scans then asked to take a look at my mouth. It was all very professional and very courteous. The surgeon was very honest and said that it was a lot of work but I could have the procedure, so I was booked in at 5pm the next day for surgery. On the 02.03.24 at 3 pm we were picked up by the transfer taxi and taken to the clinic where a further scan was taken and then Honor talked me through the whole process, and what type of plate was recommended due to my bone loss. After this, we were taken to the staff room where were given food to eat and we all sat and had a very relaxed time. 5pm I was greeted by my surgeon and sat in the chair. I was given time to say my goodbyes to my children and then it was all go. All the equipment needed was sterile and taken out of sealed packets, and when ready the surgeon made a start. First he applied an anaesthetic spray to numb the gum, and that worked in seconds, then after a minute or so I was injected loads to ensure I would not feel a thing. My surgeon was quick working with this and I was numb from the bridge of my nose to the top of my mouth. 3 teeth taken out, 2 sinus lifts, 6 implants later and all stitched up the first half was complete. That was the hard part done. We had a short break, and then round 2, the lower jaw. This was easier as I had 10 teeth on the bottom, but I was still injected loads to make sure that I had no pain, then 10 teeth taken out, 6 implants placed and stitched up I was finished. It was a lot of work, but I honestly didn’t feel a thing other than a lot of jaw ache but this is due to having my mouth open for 3 hours and also the pressure that is applied when they make the placements for the implants. My surgeon was amazing and had clearly done this procedure many times so I felt very reassured all the time. I had a further scan and then given a prescription for 5 items, and on the way back to the hotel, the taxi stopped at a pharmacy for me to pick up the meds and then to the hotel where I had a telephone conversation with Honor who advised how to take the meds. 3 days after surgery I was very swollen and I had some serious bruising but pain wise I had nothing more than a little bit of dental ache which you get from having 1 tooth out, it amazed me. 10am on the 5.3.24 I was picked up and taken to to clinic for a check up and was told everything looked well and the healing was already happening which was a great relief, then Honor showed me the last scan where I could see all 12 implants. I was so happy they had managed to achieve this. I now have to allow 5 months minimum for all the bone grafts to take and harden, which for me means no teeth at all, but if this is advised to reduce the failure ratio due to the lack of upper jaw bone then I’m ok with that. I chose A-dent from what clinic because of all the positive reviews and I promise I was not disappointed. The clinic itself was immaculate. The floor was so clean you could eat off it, all the equipment was sterile and clean, it was brilliant and the staff there were so polite and guided you with everything, but Honor, well he is just a diamond guy and will do anything and everything to support, guide and reassure you through everything. You also get a “implant passport” which gives all the information on what type of implant you have and where it is placed and all covered by a lifetime guarantee. I now know that if I need any treatment in the future A-dent is where I will be going and I think my children will too. Absolutely first class!

After 3 years of extensive research to find the best dental clinic in Turkey Dentalays to me always stood out from the rest of the clinics I looked at. I was especially attracted to this clinic because of the natural beautiful smiles that they create I think there work speaks for itself it’s simply outstanding. I made contact with the clinic and Mya was just amazing and such a pleasure to deal with I knew I was going to be in the best hands. I booked my flight and beautiful Mya arranged everything else from transport and 5* accommodation. I arrived at Antalya airport and transport was waiting for me I was then taken to the clinic and was greeted by the wonderful team. After an X-ray and dental examination it was obvious that my case was extremely complex. I had teeth extracted, bone graft and sinus lift, implants and crowns it was completely painless the whole experience was so smooth from start to finish each and every doctor that was part of my treatment was just amazing they have a really amazing team they are passionate about what they do and this shines through with the work they produce . I returned six months later as implants need time to heal and fuse. My treatment was completed on my second visit and I could not be happier with the final results. I highly recommend Dentalays if I could give 10 stars to this amazing clinic and team then I would as they deserve it they are just amazing. Thank you Dentalays for restoring my confidence and giving me the most beautiful smile imaginable you are simply the best I am eternally grateful.
