How many implants do you need?
A dental implant is a small titanium post that is surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Once the implant fuses with the bone over a period of three to six months (a process called osseointegration), it provides a stable foundation for a custom-made crown that looks and functions like a natural tooth. The procedure typically begins with a CT scan and consultation to assess your bone density and plan implant placement. On surgery day, the implant is placed under local anaesthetic. Most patients describe the discomfort as mild, similar to a tooth extraction. A temporary crown may be fitted the same day, depending on your case. After healing, you return for the final porcelain or zirconia crown to be attached. The result is a permanent, fixed tooth that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. Implants do not affect neighbouring teeth, making them the preferred option over bridges for single-tooth replacement.

Yes. Istanbul is a well-established dental tourism destination. MyDentalFly only lists verified clinics with international accreditations. The same implant brands and materials used in the UK are available at partner clinics.
You'll typically need to stay 5-7 days per visit in Istanbul. Most treatments can be completed in a single trip.
The titanium implant post can last a lifetime with proper care. The crown on top typically lasts 10-15 years before it may need replacing due to normal wear.
The surgery is performed under local anaesthetic, so you should not feel pain during the procedure. Most patients report mild soreness for 2-3 days afterwards, manageable with over-the-counter painkillers.
Standard implants (MIS, Osstem) are well-established brands with strong clinical track records. Premium implants (Straumann, Nobel Biocare) have longer research histories and may offer advantages in complex cases. Your dentist will recommend based on your specific needs.
Istanbul is one of the most visited cities in the world, welcoming over 20 million tourists annually. Dental clinics in modern districts like Sisli, Levent, and Atasehir are in safe, well-connected areas. Standard travel precautions apply, as with any major city.
Most treatments require 5-10 days. Single implant placements or veneer preparations typically need 5-7 days, while full-mouth restorations like All-on-4 may require 7-10 days. Your clinic will provide a personalised timeline based on your treatment plan.
