Temporary Bridge Turkey

I had a root canal done with Dr. Cem. I chose him because the practice is close to my home. The treatment was worth what I paid (they charged me the price listed online). The clinic was nicely organized, very bright and welcoming. The best part was the dentist’s bedside manner - I felt very comfortable with him. All the staff were professional.

Very modern and professional clinic. Communication about booking the appointment and any queries I had was fast and efficient. The staff were friendly and polite and most spoke excellent English and those that didn’t another member of staff translated for me. (I felt like royalty). The clinic sent a taxi to pick me up which was great as I might have had trouble finding the building and a member of staff was waiting to greet me on arrival. The clinic does not take you home but this was not a problem as you are walking distance from the centre of town or you could catch the bus as the stop was virtually outside the property. I had never seen such a modern state of the art dentistry equipment and put my dentist in the UK to shame. I had a dental check-up, x-ray, teeth cleaned and 3 fillings ( 2 of which I had anticipated and the third I could see needed renewing). Word of caution - on the check-up I was advised that 9 of my current fillings needed redoing and that I should replace my crown (which was only fitted last year). This rang alarm bells in my head as I wasn’t having any problems so I said no and there was no pressure put upon me to have the advised treatment. I stuck to what I had gone there for and the extra filling that I agreed did need doing. I am visiting my UK dentist in a few months time so we shall see what they say about the treatment the clinic advised me to do. The cost of treatments was a lot cheaper than the UK and I do highly recommend this clinic and shall visit again on my next stay in Turkey.

I am writing this review as I found reading through other people's experiences are very helpful and an important factor in me making my decision to go ahead with treatment. Especially the lady who put on the photos of before and after were particularly helpful. I also had the advantage of seeing the outcome of a friend's dental work after she returned from a holiday in Turkey. She had all her top row of teeth fitted with crowns and bridges, and to be honest that's where it all started for me. I have always been a nervous patient and believe most people are, in fact, nervous is an understatement. Anyway, within a few days of seeing my friend's teeth I contacted Ufuk, sent photos of my teeth and asked his advice. I then arranged a flight, hotel etc. and found it extremely beneficial to have some of my stay in Yalikavak, coinciding with my treatment. I booked two weeks holiday and an appointment was arranged the day after arrival at midday. After X-rays were taken, he discussed the process with me and it was decided that my best way forward would be to have all my upper teeth crowned, including bridges. X-rays and impressions were taken and the preparation on my teeth began. I was dreading the injections as from past experience in the UK this had been particularly painful. However as confirmed in previous reviews, surprisingly there was no pain at all. He reassured me all along the way and I felt at ease in no time at all, there was also much laughter! Ufuk then made up the temporaries in the house and fitted them, and we then discussed and agreed on the colour and what would be most appropriate. I returned after a few days for the fitting of the permanent crowns and wow, I am so pleased with them. No regrets at all.

Had 4 appointments in total where I had a root canal filling two old fillings removed and replaced, a crown made and fitted the same day and all teeth cleaned. The cost was £275 which I thought was exceptional for the time they took. All the staff made me feel welcome and I am extremely happy with my teeth. A very fast efficient dentist and I will definitely go back.

Two crowns, a filling and a bleaching. I am very happy with the treatment from Dt Adnan Guler and his team. It was all very professional and at a very reasonable price compared to UK prices. Adnan was very flexible about times and fitted me in early one day when I was in a hurry. I will go to Adnan again for some more extensive dental treatment when I am in the south west Meditteranean coast of Turkey next time.
