Tanfer Clinic is a private dental facility in Istanbul. Founded in 1981 by Dr. Nihat Tanfer, the clinic operates from a three-story building in the Nişantaşı district. The facility includes seven specialized dental units and a dedicated surgery room. A team of seven dental surgeons covers oral, maxillofacial, and aesthetic specialties.
Specialized Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
The clinic has performed dental implant treatments since 1985. Specialists focus on complex cases involving jaw bone loss. In 2012, Tanfer Clinic introduced Osteobioregeneration (Box Technique) to Turkey. This guided bone regenerative method reconstructs lost jaw bone to support future implants.
For patients with complete tooth loss, the surgical team performs the All-on-Four technique. This method secures a full dental prosthesis on four implants placed at specific angles. Patients typically arrive in the morning and receive temporary fixed teeth by evening. Permanent prostheses follow after a three-month recovery period.
The surgical department also treats jaw cysts that originate from teeth or bone. Surgeons remove the entire cyst – not just the tooth – to prevent regrowth within the jawbone. The department handles impacted teeth and complex extractions as well.
Restorative and Aesthetic Dentistry
Tanfer Clinic reports a 98% success rate for root canal treatments. This procedure removes damaged pulp and fills the canal with artificial material. If tooth structure is weak, specialists use inlay fillings or crowns to restore function. The clinic has offered porcelain and zirconium crowns since 1990.
Aesthetic procedures include laminate veneers and zirconia restorations. The clinic uses CEREC technology for same-day dental aesthetics. This system creates digital diagnostic models and scans to produce precise restorations in a single visit. Pediatric dentistry is available for children aged 0–13.
Diagnostic and Treatment Technologies
The clinic uses digital tools for accurate treatment planning. Cerec Omnicam scanning creates 3D digital models of the patient's mouth, replacing traditional physical molds. Specialists use the DIAGNOcam system to detect decay without X-ray radiation. For surgical planning, panoramic dental radiography visualizes the entire jaw and tooth structure.
Services for International Patients
The clinic coordinates all logistics for patients traveling from abroad. A representative meets patients at the airport and provides private transportation to the medical center. The team arranges accommodations through partner hotels and assists with check-in. Ambulance transportation can be arranged if medical needs require it.
Support during the stay includes:
- Translation assistance in English, Russian, Arabic, and German
- A local mobile phone for 24-hour contact with the clinic
- Private transfers between the hotel and medical appointments
- Daily check-ins during the recuperation period
- Reliable child care services and special dietary menus
The clinic also provides mobility aids such as wheelchairs, crutches, and baby carriages. Staff can assist with local tour and excursion arrangements upon request.
