How Much Does Functional crown lengthening Cost in Turkey in AUD?

Functional crown lengthening in Turkey typically costs from AUD $130. Prices primarily depend on the number of teeth involved, the surgical technique, and the clinic's location in hubs like Istanbul, Ankara, or Izmir. In Australia, this procedure costs AUD $1,600 on average, meaning patients can save approximately 92% by travelling. Standard inclusions often cover the surgical intervention, local anaesthetic, and follow-up examinations.

  • Laser crown lengthening: starts from approximately 20-25% more than traditional scalpel-based methods.
  • Osteotomy (bone removal): often adds a premium of 15-30% when bone reshaping is required.
  • All-inclusive dental packages: typically range 15-20% higher but bundle luxury accommodation and VIP transfers.
  • Ankara and Izmir clinics: often provide regional savings of 10-15% compared to premium Istanbul facilities.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Choosing specialized dental hospitals often provides better value than general clinics. For instance, Ulusoydent Oral&Dental Care Clinics reports a 95.5% success rate for gingivectomy procedures. This level of precision is vital for functional restorations. Additionally, Medipol University Ankara Dental Hospital and Ento Surgical Medical Center specifically serve Australian patients, suggesting their clinical teams understand the specific expectations and travel timelines of patients from Australia.

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

The surgeon’s approach to planning and communication was the most significant factor for me
The surgeon’s approach to planning and communication was the most significant factor for me. He took the time to review my CT scan with me, explaining the entire strategy for the dental implant before proceeding. Knowing that he would personally perform the implant placement was reassuring, and he also gave me a clear timeline for the final crown placement, which helps in planning. Post-procedure support has been very practical. The clinic gave me a clear aftercare guide to follow. They stay in touch, and have been consistently easy to reach with any questions I have had during my recovery so far. From a financial perspective, everything was transparent; there were no additional expenses on top of the original quote.

I am extremely pleased, as my teeth are 4–6 shades lighter, and I'm feeling better than expected
I have to give a special mention to my Bookimed coordinator, Winnington. He could not have been more helpful, and it felt like a genuinely personal service rather than simply arranging a booking, as he checked in every step of the way. The laser teeth whitening was carried out efficiently at a very clean and professional clinic. My dentist was excellent — carefully checking my teeth, explaining sensitivity risks, and giving clear diet instructions. I am extremely pleased, as my teeth are 4–6 shades lighter, and I'm feeling better than expected. My only feedback is that the dentist didn't confirm the shade before or after, which would have offered greater reassurance. The clinic did stay in touch, and there were no additional expenses. For future patients, ask Bookimed for hotel suggestions; mine was a few minutes' walk away.
I had a really positive experience from start to finish. The clinic was very clean and professional, and all of the staff made me feel welcome and comfortable. The dentist was excellent — very knowledgeable, friendly and professional, with very good English. The teeth-whitening procedure was carried out efficiently and I am extremely pleased with the results. I also have to give a special mention to Winnington at Bookimed. He really could not have been more helpful throughout the whole process. He was extremely engaging and took the time to provide me with different treatment options, dental clinics, hotels and taxi arrangements, which made organising everything much easier. What impressed me most was that Winnington continued to check in with me every step of the way to make sure I was OK and to see whether I needed anything. It felt like genuinely personal service rather than simply arranging a booking. I would 100% use Bookimed again and, hopefully, I will have the pleasure of having Winnington manage my next booking too.
From Bookimed's side, I genuinely don't think they could have done anything differently. The organisation and support I received from Winnington throughout the whole process were excellent. The only thing I feel could have been improved was at the clinic itself. The dentist did not check or confirm the shade of my teeth before or after the whitening treatment, which I had assumed would be part of the service. They just asked if I was happy with the result. I can clearly see that my teeth are several shades lighter and I am very happy with the results. However, having the before and after shades formally checked and confirmed at the clinic would have given me greater reassurance and meant I left feeling even happier with the result, rather than having to wait until afterwards to compare my own before and after photographs.

This is a modern clinic with people dedicated to their profession
My greatest concern was about possible hidden fees, but there were no additional expenses beyond the agreed amount. The doctor clearly explained all material options, provided a digital outcome forecast, and allowed me to try on a temporary version. This is a modern clinic with people dedicated to their profession. The staff is extremely friendly, the team is always available, and a translator is constantly present, which is very important. They also stayed in touch with me after the procedure, checked on my well-being, and provided clear care instructions. The only advice for future patients is to clarify all details regarding the choice of implants and their cost in advance.
Modern clinic. Exceptionally friendly staff. The team here is dedicated to their profession and truly performs wonders. The clinic staff is always available for any inquiries. It's reassuring that a language interpreter is always by the patient's side, which is crucial during treatment. Overall, the staff and conditions at the clinic leave a positive impression.

The service was amazing, right from the first communication
The doctor tells you what he is doing, and he did a great job very efficiently. This was true of the whole process. The service was amazing, right from the first communication. They always messaged well in advance to let you know what time your appointment is scheduled for, and when the transfer will be there, with the name of the driver and vehicle number plate. All staff were super welcoming, friendly and professional. Recovery is going well. My gums already look pink and healthy. I am still being very careful with everything, and my speech is adjusting to the new mini implants.

I would recommend her any day
I decided to seek treatment with dentist Ela Cabuk after reading reviews so I'm hoping this review will help in the same way for another undecided person in making a sound choice,. I found her expertise professionalism and compassion to ones needs a true relief. I had receding gums on my top four front teeth and the roots were exposed, my own thought were to just get 4 on 4 but Ela found the perfect solution in restoring and firming my four front teeth without going to the extreme. I would recommend her any day, I could not fault my treatment or my outcome.

I felt truly cared for
I was very anxious about possible discomfort after the procedure, but the entire process was carried out with great care. The staff and surgeon continuously reassured me and explained everything clearly, which was extremely important to me. Healing is progressing well. Of course, it's still too early to assess how the abutment feels while chewing, but at this stage, everything seems correct. Although I wasn't informed about the specific brand of the implant, I fully trusted the doctor's choice, as his professionalism was evident. I felt truly cared for.

The doctor matched the color perfectly to my preferences
I remember discussing the shade for my new smile, and what really stood out was how the doctor matched the color perfectly to my preferences. I opted for a full mouth restoration with E-max pressed ceramic veneers, and the outcome feels right. Everyone was supportive. Now in the early stages of healing, everything is progressing about as expected, which is a relief. It’s also very reassuring that the clinic has stayed in touch to check on my progress since I've been home. The care was consistent.

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.

FAQ about Functional crown lengthening in Turkey

These FAQs come from real patients seeking medical assistance through Bookimed. Answers are given by experienced medical coordinators and trusted clinic representatives.

What is functional crown lengthening in Turkey?

Functional crown lengthening in Turkey is a specialised surgical procedure performed by periodontists to expose more healthy tooth structure. Specialists reshape gum tissue and underlying bone to create a solid foundation for crowns or veneers. This treatment saves teeth with deep decay or fractures located below the gum line.

  • Restorative surgery: Reshapes the gum and bone line to securely fit permanent dental restorations.
  • Specialist expertise: Procedures are performed by periodontists, such as Professor Nejat Nizam at Nifa Dent.
  • Surgical techniques: Includes flap surgery, bone recontouring, and laser-assisted gum management for precise results.
  • Diagnostic planning: Clinics use 3D imaging and digital scanning to map the biological width accurately.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Turkish university hospitals like Medipol University Ankara offer an advantage with dedicated local anaesthesia rooms and surgical theatres. This environment is ideal for complex functional lengthening that requires bone reduction rather than simple cosmetic gum trimming.

Patient Consensus: Patients in Turkey report that clinics provide documented timelines for healing before fitting final crowns. The process effectively saves teeth previously considered for extraction while maintaining natural-looking gum symmetry.

What is the difference between functional and aesthetic crown lengthening in Turkey?

Functional crown lengthening in Turkey treats decay or fractures below the gum line. This provides enough surface area for a dental crown. Aesthetic crown lengthening reshapes the gum and bone to fix a gummy smile. Both procedures support long-term dental health by exposing more tooth structure.

  • Treatment goals: Functional work prioritises restorative repairs. Aesthetic work focuses on smile balance and tooth length.
  • Clinical indications: Specialists use functional surgery for subgingival decay. Aesthetic surgery corrects excessive gum display.
  • Procedure scope: Functional surgery often requires removing bone. Aesthetic cases may only need laser soft-tissue contouring.
  • Surgical expertise: Periodontists like Dr Ela Cabuk Renklibay perform these gum surgeries in Ankara.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Functional cases in Turkish university clinics often cost from $90. This is roughly 92% less than the A$$1,100 Australian average. Many leading centres such as Medipol University Ankara Dental Hospital include free medical report translations for Australian patients.

Patient Consensus: Patients in Turkey find that clarifying the bone removal step upfront is vital. This helps with managing recovery. Most report that those receiving soft-tissue laser treatment recover faster than those requiring bone recontouring.
