The main treatments in demand from abroad are implant surgery and smile aesthetic applications. At this point, it has become one of the factors that increase confidence that our physicians who accept patients within the scope of health tourism analyze the variables of the patients who will return to their countries after their treatment and develop appropriate methods.
In addition, the fact that patients cannot receive the same quality of treatment in their home countries and that this treatment is quite high in terms of both time and cost is also a reason for Turkey’s preference.
HOW DO PATIENTS FROM ABROAD REACH THE DENTAL CLINIC?
In our clinic, while organizing the treatment of overseas patients, components such as systemic diseases and blood values are taken into consideration with a holistic perspective, the most appropriate treatment plan for them is decided and time management is made. As with each patient, a unique treatment plan is created for their needs. Before the patient comes to our clinic, they can send us their X-rays and dental photos in order to have information about possible treatments.

At this point, the biggest duty of clinics, hospitals and agencies is to continue to practice their professions by aiming to raise the reputation of our country without giving up service quality and keeping human health before everything else.
