Dental treatments in Antalya

Start from what is actually wrong rather than from a treatment name. The table below maps the problem you would describe to a dentist onto the treatment that usually solves it, and to the page that explains it properly. Nothing here is a diagnosis — the plan only becomes real after a CBCT scan and a written quote.

Start with the problem, not the treatment

Most people arrive knowing the symptom and not the procedure. Find the line that sounds like you.

The conservative ladder most patients are never shown

Cosmetic dentistry has an order, and it runs from the cheapest and least destructive to the most. A good plan starts at the top and stops as soon as the result is good enough. A package sold on a fixed timetable tends to start near the bottom, because crowns are faster and more forgiving to fit.

Step	What it costs the tooth
1Professional cleaning and whitening	Nothing. No enamel is touched and it is fully reversible.
2Composite bonding	Almost nothing. Minimal or no preparation, and it can be removed or redone later.
3Gum-line correction	Nothing on the tooth. Reshapes soft tissue, not enamel.
4Short-course clear aligners	Nothing. Moves teeth instead of cutting them to fake alignment.
5Minimal-prep ceramic veneers	0.3–0.7 mm, ideally enamel only. Irreversible, but conservative.
6Full crowns	1.5–2 mm around the whole tooth, into dentine. Irreversible, and it commits the tooth for life.

If a sound, lightly filled tooth is being recommended for a crown, ask for the reason in writing. There are good reasons — a heavily filled or root-treated tooth, a fracture, severe discolouration. "It gives a better result in five days" is not one of them.

Every treatment, explained in full

Each page covers the procedure, how long it takes, what recovery is like and where it goes wrong — not a brochure.

Professional Teeth Whitening — Suitability, Limits and Aftercare

Digital Smile Design — Plan Before Choosing Treatment

Root Canal Treatment — Diagnosis Before Travel

Root canal treatment may preserve a restorable tooth with inflamed or infected pulp. Diagnosis, prompt local care when urgent, restoration planning and follow-up come first.

How a case actually runs

The order matters more than the treatment name. Anything that removes tooth structure happens after the plan is agreed, never before.

1
Photographs and a panoramic or CBCT scan
Sent from home or taken on arrival. Without a scan nobody can tell you what your case needs, and any fixed price quoted before one is a guess.
2
A written, itemised plan
Every unit listed separately with the material named, so you can see what you are paying for and take it to another dentist for a second opinion.
3
Design and mock-up before preparation
For anything cosmetic you see the proposed result and approve it first. This is the stage cheap packages skip, and it is the one that protects you.
4
Treatment, then a healing gap
Implants need months to integrate. Ceramics need a try-in before the final fit. A case compressed into one short trip has had a stage removed from it.
5
Records you take home
Treatment notes, radiographs, the implant passport with batch numbers and the material specification — what any dentist will ask for before touching the work.

Before you decide

What it costs

We do not publish a fixed price list, because a price that has not seen your scan is not information. The pages below explain how each treatment is priced, what belongs on the invoice and what the cheap quotes leave off.
