Reviews about Bookimed: Discover Patients' Insights
Such an unparalleled, all-encompassing service is unthinkable in Germany!
My rather unexpected decision to have two implants fitted at the age of 76 was immediately put into action by Dentist Gürkan! He gave me excellent advice, then examined my jawbone using an X-ray, and after a further 45 minutes, the two implants were professionally and perfectly in place! His very, very friendly manner and steady hand made this procedure a truly memorable experience! My thanks also go to the entire team: the surgical assistant, the reception staff, as well as the German interpreter and the member of staff who drove me from the office to the Dent-Helen-Clinic and, after the treatment, to the nearest cash machine, and looked after me. Such an unparalleled, all-encompassing service is unthinkable in Germany! Thank you very much for this positive experience and for continuing to keep your patients happy! I am already very much looking forward to returning to complete the treatment in a few months’ time!
Best regards from Holger, aka Biker Bruno

I now feel better than I expected
What surprised me most was how quickly the whole procedure was over. I’d expected to spend at least four hours in the dentist’s chair, but my dentist finished in less than two. During that time, he removed a number of decayed teeth with great professionalism and fitted 10 Nobel Biocare implants. He personally consulted with me before the operation and carried it out himself. I now feel better than I expected. The clinic is always on hand, which is very important during the recovery period. There were no additional costs. I’d advise future patients to have a good meal the evening before the operation. And if you’re facing the same extent of treatment as I did, make sure to take plenty of tissues with you to the hotel.
It’s hard for me to say what I didn’t like. I think everything went absolutely brilliantly. Everyone, from the coordinator to the driver, carried out their duties to perfection. I’m very grateful to everyone!
I think my visit went well, but I’m not sure what could be done to make my treatment more comfortable.

It was an experience my husband and I will never forget!!
Bookimed was so helpful and extremely nice. Everything they told me was to the detail accurate. I was very nervous about this because we’d never traveled that far before, just so many unknowns. But from the minute we were picked up from the airport we felt completely comfortable. Even with the language barrier, there were tons of laughs, smiles and hugs. It was an experience my husband and I will never forget!!
About Bookimed service
I was very nervous about this trip and had tons of questions, so I’m sure at times I was driving the young lady that helped me crazy, but never did she make me feel that way. She always answered me in a timely fashion. She would even call the dentist office with questions I had and she would let me know right away what they had to say.
I’m usually not a very trusting person, but she helped me know that even though we’d never met I could completely trust her. It was an experience of a lifetime, and I would definitely use them again.

The doctor personally fitted my 3–4 NTA implants and immediately gave me a clear timeline for when the crowns could be fitted, which was very reassuring
What I was most worried about was how the recovery would go and the journey home. And with good reason. My feelings are mixed so far; it’s still too early to talk about the final result, but the procedure itself went well. The doctor personally fitted my 3–4 NTA implants and immediately gave me a clear timeline for when the crowns could be fitted, which was very reassuring. The post-operative instructions were clear, and the only additional expense I had to cover was for medication. My only important piece of advice to future patients is this: if you can, extend your stay after the operation, because the flight is very tiring.
The Wi-Fi at the hotel doesn’t always work, so the coordinator can’t get through on the phone

The support didn’t stop after the procedure — the clinic was always available if I had any questions, which I think is important
Before the procedure, the doctor took the time to explain what to expect, which helped me prepare myself mentally. The partial denture placement took only two visits, which was very convenient. The support continued after the procedure, as the clinic was always available to answer any questions, which I consider important. The only thing to take into account is that I incurred additional costs after the initial payment. Overall, I rate the doctor's and team's work as good, but not excellent, so I give it 4 out of 5.

The clinic provided excellent support after the procedure: they were always available and gave me clear aftercare instructions
It was very important to me that the surgeon personally carried out the placement of my seven-plus implants. Everything went according to plan. I’m currently in the early stages of recovery, and I’m feeling exactly as I expected, with no surprises. The clinic provided excellent support after the procedure: they were always available and gave me clear aftercare instructions. The doctor also gave me a clear timeline for the fitting of the crowns and, importantly, there were no additional costs.
Everything was very well organised: the hotel, the airport pick-up, and the taxi arrangements for the journey to the clinic and back to the hotel.
Personally, I was very pleased with everything, including the way the clinic was run

The aftercare was excellent
What stuck in my mind most was the moment when the doctor showed me the CT scan and explained the entire treatment plan in detail. He personally carried out the placement of my seven Straumann implants. The aftercare was excellent. They took an active interest in how I was feeling, gave me very clear aftercare instructions and were always available, which was very reassuring. The only additional costs were for the medication, which I bought from a chemist. It’s worth noting that everything I needed to know was explained to me before I arrived at the clinic, so there were no surprises.
A huge thank you to the doctor, the coordinator and the whole clinic staff for their patient and attentive care of their patients. I really do feel lucky to have ended up at this clinic. I missed my flight and lost a whole day. Despite this, they admitted me and carried out everything that had been planned. Right from the start, I really liked this clinic. The staff are warm-hearted and caring people.Thank you also for your help with the translation. For me, there was nothing negative about my first visit. The post-operative instructions were more than detailed. I’m looking forward to the second and final stage. I’d like to believe that I won’t be disappointed going forward either. I’ll definitely leave a review.

His support, responsiveness, and commitment made all the difference for me, and I am sincerely grateful for everything he did
I want to sincerely thank Winnington at Bookimed for the exceptional support he provided during my dental treatment (4 implants) journey in Istanbul.
What truly stood out was how Winnington completely transformed a very stressful situation into a successful and fully satisfying experience.
I only had a 3-day stay in Istanbul after a long 9.5 hrs flight from Canada, initially I had an appointment arranged with another clinic that I honestly did not feel comfortable moving forward with. At that point, the situation became very stressful because of the limited time I had available and the fear of wasting the entire trip without receiving the treatment I urgently needed.
This is where Winnington went far above and beyond.
Understanding the urgency and pressure I was under, he acted incredibly fast and managed to arrange a new appointment for me with Memorial Hospital on extremely short notice. Thanks entirely to his efforts, coordination, and persistence, I was able to secure an appointment almost immediately despite the tight timeline.
That single action completely changed the outcome of my trip.
The experience at Memorial Hospital was outstanding from start to finish, I left extremely satisfied with both the care and the results.
Throughout the entire process, Winnington stayed in constant communication, followed up regularly, helped clarify pricing and logistics, handled concerns professionally, and genuinely made me feel supported during a very stressful moment.
What impressed me most was not only his professionalism, but his ability to deliver solutions under pressure and truly advocate for the patient. Without his quick actions and dedication, my trip could have easily turned into a disappointing experience.
I highly recommend Bookimed (big shout out to Winnington) to anyone considering medical treatment abroad. His support, responsiveness, and commitment made all the difference for me, and I am sincerely grateful for everything he did.

I really didn’t like the way I was treated at the clinic; there’s no organisation, the interpreters are constantly coming and going, and you constantly feel lost because you don’t speak the language. I have no complaints about the operation itself or the surgeon; everything went quickly, smoothly and painlessly.

The surgeon and staff worked very professionally and seamlessly, creating a calm and reassuring atmosphere
If you’re considering getting a dental implant, I’d advise you first and foremost to prepare yourself for the recovery period. It’s now the second week since my operation, and I’m still avoiding chewing on that side so as not to put any strain on the area, and there’s still a slight redness around the gum. This is normal. I had a Straumann implant fitted. The organisation at the clinic was excellent, and the surgeon and staff worked very professionally and seamlessly, creating a calm and reassuring atmosphere. I have no complaints about their work. I am happy with my choice.
Excellent translators, professional doctors, and a caring approach to every patient
They didn’t provide a description of the implant, just the brand name. The payment receipt doesn’t list the prices for each service, only the total amount.

Right now, fifteen days post-op, I have no discomfort when chewing, which was a huge relief during my first few meals
If you’re thinking about getting an implant abroad, my main piece of advice is to ignore the technical jargon and focus on the surgeon's skill. I honestly couldn't tell you the brand or diameter of the post they used, but the way it feels matters more to me anyway. Right now, fifteen days post-op, I have no discomfort when chewing, which was a huge relief during my first few meals. The clinic and staff were genuinely helpful, though I am still dealing with some slight redness around the gums. It isn't painful. While the surgeon was excellent and the facility was clean, the healing process is definitely a journey. If you are planning to do this, my best advice is to just have patience.

FAQ about Dental Implant in Turkey
These FAQs come from real patients seeking medical assistance through Bookimed. Answers are given by experienced medical coordinators and trusted clinic representatives.
Are dental implants in Turkey safe for Australian patients?
Dental implants in Turkey can be safe when performed at accredited clinics with experienced dentists using original brands like Straumann or Megagen. Leading centres offer international standards and multi-day care, but Australian patients should consider follow-up challenges and ensure clear documentation for long-term safety.
Clinic accreditation: Some clinics hold TÜV NORD ISO 9001 and Turkish Medical Association certifications.
Experienced dentists: Doctors like Hasan Onur Akin (WestDent) and Ertan Etemoglu (Tower Dental) have 20+ years’ experience.
Implant brands: Original implants include Straumann, Nobel Biocare, Megagen, and Osstem.
Follow-up care: Many packages include consultations and even remote video follow-ups after discharge.
Complex cases: Zygomatic and All-on-4 implants are available but require multi-day stays and specialist care.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Clinics with international implant certifications and multiple dental specialists, such as WestDent in İzmir and Tower Dental in Istanbul, maintain over 99% success rates. Australian patients benefit from clinics that provide staged payments and detailed treatment records to ease post-treatment management back home.
Patient Consensus: Australians appreciate clinics in Turkey for friendly staff and clear aftercare support. Many highlight smooth procedures and quick recovery despite the distance. Patients often note the importance of translators and organised transfers for stress-free treatment.
What is the success rate of dental implants performed in Turkey?
Dental implant success rates in Turkey generally range from 95% to 99%, matching global standards. Clinics like WestDent and SUAVE DENTAL CLINIC offer success rates up to 99% and 97% respectively, reflecting skilled techniques and experienced specialists using top brands like Straumann and Nobel Biocare.
Success rate: WestDent Clinic reports 99% success for dental implants.
Advanced implant brands: Straumann, Nobel Biocare, BEGO, and Osstem widely used.
Specialised procedures: Zygomatic implants have slightly lower success rates of 85–90%.
Experienced surgeons: Doctors like Hasan Onur Akin (ITI certified) enhance outcomes.
Post-op care: Many clinics offer follow-ups with video or text consultations.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Clinics with ITI-certified dentists, like WestDent and Nifa Dent International, show consistently high success rates above 95%, often including extensive follow-up options. Packages including language assistance and VIP transfers reflect a full patient experience, which aids recovery and satisfaction, particularly for Australians.
Patient Consensus: Patients praise Turkish clinics for professional care, clear explanations, and friendly teams. Many highlight efficient recovery with mild soreness and appreciate clinics’ aftercare support. The experience often surprises Australians with the high service level and thorough treatment.
What are the brands of dental implants used in Turkey?
Dental clinics in Turkey commonly use globally recognised implant brands, including Straumann, Nobel Biocare, Osstem, Megagen, BEGO, Medentika and Dentsply Sirona. These brands cover premium to mid-range options, suitable for All-on-4, All-on-6, and other implant techniques.
Straumann and Nobel Biocare: Premium Swiss and Swedish/US brands with high success rates.
Osstem, Megagen, and DIO UV: Popular Korean brands offering quality and affordability.
BEGO and Medentika: German and European brands used at leading clinics.
Neodent and Astra Tech: Recognised for durable materials and patented technologies.
Clinics like WestDent and Hospitadent officially provide brands such as Straumann and Dentsply Sirona.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Turkey’s dental clinics stock a broad mix of reputable brands, so implant brand choice often depends on the clinic. For example, WestDent Clinic offers certified Straumann implants with a 99% success rate, while Soraca Med uses Megagen for All-on-4. This variety means asking clinics specifically about the brand and guarantees is critical to ensure quality and support.
Patient Consensus: Patients value transparency about implant brands and clinic support in Turkey. Many praise clinics for clear consultations, smooth procedures, and strong aftercare. Australian patients especially note the benefit of English-speaking coordinators and thorough follow-up offered in major centres.
How long does an Australian patient need to stay in Turkey for dental implants?
Australian patients usually need two trips to Turkey for dental implants. The first stay lasts 4 to 7 days for surgery and early recovery. The second visit, 3 to 6 months later, takes 5 to 6 days for crowns or bridges. The total time in Turkey is under 12 days.
Initial surgery stay: 4 to 7 days for implant placement and early healing.
Recovery buffer: 2 to 3 days post-surgery before flying back to Australia.
Bone fusion: 3 to 6 months needed before placing final crowns.
Follow-up stay: 5 to 6 days for permanent crown or bridge fitting.
Package example: WestDent Clinic includes 9 days accommodation and airport transfers.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Clinics like WestDent and Soraca Med include transfers and 4-star hotel stays during the 1st visit, easing patient comfort. Patients planning All-on-4 or All-on-6 implants typically get 5 to 6 nights in hotels during crown fitting. Avoid clinics promising one-visit finishes; staged visits ensure safer healing and implant success.
Patient Consensus: Australian patients appreciate clear timelines and support in Turkey. They note the value of language assistance, transfers, and hotel stays. Most recommend planning staged trips to avoid rushing recovery, confirming that implants feel secure and crowns match naturally after the second visit.
Is it possible for Australian patients to get dental implants in Turkey completed in one day?
Australian patients can get dental implants placed and temporary teeth fitted in Turkey on the same day. However, final permanent crowns require 4 to 6 months of healing and a second visit for completion. Clinics offer implant systems like Straumann and Megagen for reliable outcomes.
Immediate loading: Temporary prosthesis fitted on implant day, not final teeth.
Healing period: 4–6 months needed before permanent crowns are fixed.
Two visits: Surgery first, then crown fitting after jawbone fusion.
Leading clinics: WestDent, Good Look Clinic, Soraca Med provide follow-ups.
Local anaesthesia common; some centres offer general anaesthesia for complex cases.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Turkish clinics like WestDent and Soraca Med specialise in “same day” implants with temporary teeth, yet patients must plan for a second trip months later. Packages usually include hotel stays of 5+ days to cover initial recovery. High-volume clinics often offer VIP transfers and pre-booked follow-ups that suit Australian travellers managing long flights and recovery.
Patient Consensus: Australians value the prompt, professional implant placement and quality temporary teeth in Turkey. Many note the need for patience during healing and a return visit to fit permanent crowns. Clinics provide clear timelines and good support, easing concerns about overseas dental treatment.
What support is available if complications arise after returning to Australia following dental implant treatment in Turkey?
After dental implant treatment in Turkey, Australians with complications often must seek local dental care privately, as Medicare does not cover post-treatment problems. Some Turkish clinics offer warranties, but repairs usually require travel back to Turkey. Australian dentists often hesitate to treat overseas work due to liability concerns.
Local dental care: Australian dentists may handle infections or implant failure but often avoid overseas work.
Turkish clinic warranties: Most require returning to Turkey for repairs under warranty programmes.
Insurance and legal aid: Limited coverage or legal options exist for complications abroad.
Out-of-pocket costs: Australian corrective dental surgery can cost A$30,000–A$50,000 or more privately.
Follow-up: Some Turkish clinics provide video consultations; local follow-ups may be refused by Australian dentists.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Clinics like Soraca Med in Antalya offer 24/7 post-treatment support with language assistance, helping patients remotely after returning to Australia. However, Australian dentists rarely provide follow-up or corrective care for overseas dental work due to risk and liability. Booking clinics with clear warranty and remote follow-up options may reduce stress if issues arise.
Patient Consensus: Australian patients report local dentists often refuse follow-up on Turkish implants. Many suggest checking local dentists’ willingness to treat complications first. Remote support from Turkish clinics helps but does not replace hands-on care. Patients recommend budgeting for private corrective surgery in Australia as a backup plan.
Will English-speaking dentists be available for dental implants in Turkey?
