Strong, Pretty and Comfy: Dental Crowns in Turkey 🦷

Teeth are like bricks on a wall. Weak spots will lead to the eventual collapse of the structure: that’s why solid foundations are crucial.

What are Dental Crowns?

A dental crown is a cap-like restoration that is custom-made to cover a damaged or decayed tooth. It is typically made of porcelain, ceramic or metal and its purpose is to restore teeth shape, size, strength, and appearance.

Do You Actually Need Dental Crowns?

Crowns are not always the best solution for aesthetic or functional purposes, and even if they are, it doesn’t mean you should get them immediately.Orthodontics might be highly recommendable beforehand, or even necessary to ensure life-lasting results.

Dental crowns might be a good option if you want to:

🦷 Restore broken or severely worn down teeth
🦷 Protect weakened teeth from breaking or cracking
🦷 Cover a dental implant
🦷 Hold a dental bridge in place

if revision surgery is needed, patients will have to come back to Turkey

Choosing Dental Crowns: The Beauty or The Beast?

Dental crowns provide solutions for function and beauty purposes. 

Choosing one over the other will greatly affect results through teeth shaving, durability, aesthetics and pricing.

The final decision is always yours, but we went to school to answer all your questions, so don’t hesitate to reach out to us.

Here is all you need to know to choose the best dental crowns in Turkey:

1. Porcelain Crowns: The Economic 💰

Porcelain crowns consist of a metal foundation coated with porcelain. They are the most cost-effective option, natural and aesthetically pleasant. If proper care is taken, they will be durable and provide a long-term solution.

  • Pros:

👍🏼  Affordable

👍🏼  Durable (10-15 years)

👍🏼  Natural

  • Cons:

👎🏼 Not as Strong

👎🏼 Not as Durable

2. Emax Crowns: The Beauty🐩

Emax crowns are the highest craftmanship in dentistry. Made of lithium disilicate glass, they shine like the moon and look pretty natural while remaining strong and durable. Porcelain can be layered on them, which further makes them the most beautiful option.

  • Pros:

👍🏼  Strong

👍🏼  Durable (15-20 years)

👍🏼  Natural

👍🏼  Don’t stain

  • Cons:

👎🏼 More Expensive

👎🏼 Not as Strong as Zirconium

3. Zirconium Crowns: The Beast 🐊

Built to resist! Zirconium crowns are almost impossible to crack. They are 3 times stronger than porcelain, which explains why they are the most durable option. Made of zirconium dioxide, they are also natural-looking and do not stain.

  • Pros:

👍🏼 Strongest

👍🏼 Most Durable (20+ years)

👍🏼 Natural

👍🏼 Don’t stain

  • Cons:

👎🏼 Most Expensive

👎🏼 Not as Pretty as Emax

4. Laminate Veneers – The Very Economic 💰

Veneers are not crowns, strictly speaking. They are a façade placed in front of your teeth for aesthetic purposes, without covering the tooth completely. They do not provide a solution for dental problems in terms of functionality, but they are economical and look very good.

  • Pros:

👍🏼 Cheaper than crowns

👍🏼 Good-looking

  • Cons:

👎🏼 Not as durable

👎🏼 Not as pretty

👎🏼 Not as functional

5. Silver & Gold Tooth Cap – The Bling-Bling ⚱️

For bling-bling stravaganza. Rappers have turned silver and gold crowns into a fashionable item. Gold and silver are also the noblest metals, which means they are extremely durable and functional.

  • Pros:

👍🏼 Very Durable

👍🏼 Very Strong

  • Cons:

👎🏼 Looking like a pirate

👎🏼 Trouble finding jobs?

Jaw-Dropping: Cost of Dental Crowns in Turkey

Getting dental crowns in Turkey costs an average 70% less than in Europe or the US. You can check our table below to get a more precise estimate.

The cost of zirconium crowns in Turkey is an average $130-$250 per crown, while in the UK the $550-$900 bracket is the only price range they are found.

Bear in mind: prices can greatly vary depending on the type of crown and the quantity required. The more crowns you require, the bigger the discount will be. The price difference with regards to Turkey remains equivalent.

Should you want to know the exact price of dental crowns in Turkey, including a personalized treatment plan and quote, we can do that for you, freely.

Why are Dental Crowns Cheaper in Turkey?

The main reason behind the cheaper price of dental crowns in Turkey is actually currency exchange, as it brings down adjacent costs such as labour, rent and equipment.

Other factors include high competition in the sector and tax exemptions, the main form of government subsidies to the medical industry.

The reason is very straightforward. At Go Health, we do not produce zirconium, emax or porcelain materials. We get crowns shipped from Switzerland and Germany by Ivoclar and other high-quality partners.

In other words, we get the same prices and discounts for our products as any other clinic elsewhere.

Procedure & Stages: The 4 🅿️’s of Dental Crowns in Turkey

 

Traveling for a tummy tuck in Turkey is enough of an adventure already as it is. That’s why take care of you all throughout your journey.

1. Planning & 3D Design 🧑🏻‍💻

While at home, your medical provider will receive your mouth pictures and X-ray scans. This will allow the dental team to establish a free treatment plan, including the total cost of travel, with transport and hotel accommodation. This is a service we deliver for free.

 

2. Preparation: Mouth Topography 🚑

After you arrive in Istanbul, we pick you up at the airport and drive you to the hotel, first, and then to our clinic. We will carry out a second consultation and full analysis of your buccal topography. We will listen to your expectations and meet them the best we can.

3. Procedure: Getting Dental Crowns in Turkey 🏥

This is the crowning stage. Lay back and relax while we carry out the procedure. The operation is performed under local anaesthesia, which means it is painless, fast and seamless. When completed, we drive you back to the hotel and help you throughout your recovery.

4. Preservation 👩🏻‍⚕️

Proper aftercare can make a big difference in terms of how long results last for. You must wash your teeth properly and take care of oral hygiene. Don’t worry, we will remain at your complete disposal after you return back home for follow-up and all you may require. If you grind your teeth, make sure you wear the night guards we will give you!

Dental Crowns Healing Stages ❤️‍🩹

The placement of dental crowns is not a dangerous operation. Recovery is fast and smooth and you can expect to only feel mild discomfort.A period of 2-3 days is required for irritation and inflammation to completely disappear. The worst you will experience might be:

  • Numbness from anesthesia
  • Mouth sensitivity
  • Discomfort
  • Initial pain (if chewing hard)

Be warned: Eating meat should be the last thing you do after getting dental crowns in Turkey! Go for soups and soft foods instead, or you will regret!

Medication: no medication is required during the recovery period, but painkillers can be prescribed upon request. You should further avoid cold and hot dishes, sugary drinks and desserts.

If you follow these recommendations carefully, you will recover in the blink of an eye.

Are You Eligible for Dental Crowns in Turkey?

Not everyone is a good candidate for dental crowns. Factors such as jaw bone density, smoking, and medical history can jeopardize the success of the operation. When consulting a dental professional, it might be determined that crowns are not the right option for you.

 
This would only happen for the patient’s own safety. Refusal criteria may include:
  • Patients taking certain medication (ex: blood thinners)
  • Patients suffering from liver, pancreas or systemic diseases
  • Patients smoking heavily on a daily basis
  • Patients having inadequate gum tissue
  • Patients lacking sufficient bone

Risks of Dental Crowns ⚠️ This is Important

Placing teeth crowns is not a dangerous procedure. But this doesn’t mean there aren’t risks associated with it.

Just like any other medical procedure, patients should calmly consider the following before undergoing treatment. Possible consequences may include:

  • Tooth chipping
  • Damaged surrounding teeth
  • Dental abrasion
  • Increased sensitivity
  • Nerve damage
 

Getting dental crowns in Turkey doesn’t involve major risks, but it is a non-reversible procedure.

We suggest you ponder over this fact carefully before giving your medical consent. A thorough dental analysis will be necessary to determine whether you are suitable for the procedure, and whether it is recommendable for you.
