Treatments & Technology

• Dental implants & full-arch: Titanium posts act like tooth roots. All-on-X, where “X” means the number of implants, supports a fixed bridge for a complete smile.
• Crowns & veneers: Porcelain or zirconia caps and thin shells used to restore function and improve aesthetics.
• Root canals: Endodontic treatment that cleans inside the tooth to remove infection and help save it. It is often finished quickly and then protected with a crown.
• Dentures & overdentures: Removable full or partial teeth. Overdentures clip to implants for better hold.
• Whitening & hygiene: In-office laser or LED whitening, routine cleanings, and deep cleanings.
• Oral surgery & periodontics: Extractions, including wisdom teeth, gum care, bone grafts, and sinus lifts.
• Imaging: Panoramic and 3D CT scans used to guide precise planning.

Who It’s Ideal For

• Travelers planning a full-arch or multi-tooth makeover who value an airport-close clinic.
• Patients seeking implant packages with clear steps and predictable timelines.
• Couples or families combining checkups and whitening with a city break in Istanbul.

Location & Getting There

Area: Pendik, Istanbul, on the Asian side.

The clinic is approximately five minutes from the airport. From arrivals, use licensed taxis, Uber, which operates with local taxis in Istanbul, or BiTaksi. From central districts on the European side, Marmaray rail connects across the Bosphorus to Pendik; a short taxi completes the trip. Ask your coordinator for the exact map pin and best route from your hotel.

Booking & Coordination

Reserve through Dental Departures for best-price guarantees, appointment coordination, and 24/7 support. Share recent X-rays or CBCT scans before you fly so the team can pre-plan chair time and, if needed, lab slots—especially for veneers, crowns, or staged implant work.

Good to Know

• Crowns and veneers typically fit into a one-week window, depending on the case.
• Cleanings, fillings, and whitening are usually single-visit services.
• Request your written treatment plan, materials, and any warranty terms before you start.
