Procedure: Dental Crown Installation
Reviews about Bookimed: Discover Patients' Insights
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.

He did the work quickly and painlessly
I liked the cooperation with Bookimed, they are a very competent team, easy and quick to get in touch. Thanks to the manager Tatiana, who found clinics for me and was always in touch. Special thanks to the dental coordinator Ivan, who was in touch with me throughout my stay in Istanbul. The interpreters Irina and Kamila from the Mavidenta clinic are nice and fast. I liked the work of the doctor who placed the implant and removed the broken tooth. He did the work quickly and painlessly. The only downside was that the temporary denture didn't fit the shape and size, and there was no time to redo it, so the doctor who tried to fit it was nervous that it didn't fit me and I told her so, and pressed it in so that it bled and then hurt for three days, because they removed the tooth, put in the implant and sewed it up. So I was a little uncomfortable after this appointment.
But in general, my impressions of the treatment are normal.

"In general, even on my extremely picky character, I put a solid five
The staff is very attentive, I especially want to mention my curator and now my friend Olya, who helped in everything, was always present at all procedures. My smile with new teeth is such a joy. Doctors are qualified and very attentive to details. Which is especially important when you're older. Good hotel in a convenient location. In general, even on my extremely picky character, I put a solid five.

Basically the clinic is good
Basically the clinic is good but there are a lot of flaws, I'm not sure I would recommend it to anyone, the only thing that appeals is the price
The equipment in the clinic is good, I liked the implantologist too, clean, staff smiling
When the crowns were placed, it was painful and the female dentists were not very concerned about it, the wait for a visit to the doctor was long, like in general everything is not bad, but some residue remained, we will see how the implants and crowns will stand

FAQ about Porcelain crown installation 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 are the risks or potential downsides of getting "Turkey Teeth"?
Getting Turkey teeth involves permanent risks. The most notable one is aggressive shaving of healthy enamel to fit porcelain crowns. This irreversible damage can cause chronic nerve pain, pulp necrosis, and the need for replacement every 10 to 15 years.
Enamel removal: Healthy teeth are ground into small pegs, causing permanent structural loss.
Nerve damage: Intensive filing can shock dental pulp, often requiring emergency root canals.
Bite alignment: Rushed schedules may lead to poor occlusion, causing jaw pain and headaches.
Aftercare gaps: Australian GPs or dentists may refuse to repair complex overseas dental work.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Many clinics like WestDent Clinic maintain 99% success rates. However, the biggest risk is miscommunication about veneers versus crowns. Patients often expect thin veneers but receive full porcelain crowns instead. This requires 60% more tooth reduction. Clinics with on-site labs, such as YEG Clinic, can sometimes reduce these risks. They do this by providing more precise digital smile designs within 4 days.
Patient Consensus: Patients in Turkey appreciate the fast results and friendly staff, but warn about unexpected costs and sensitivity. Many emphasise that the initial Hollywood smile looks great. However, they also note that finding a local dentist to handle follow-up care is difficult.
What is the difference between porcelain, E-max, and zirconia crowns?
Choosing between crown materials involves balancing natural aesthetics with structural strength. E-max provides the highest translucency for front teeth. Zirconia offers unmatched durability for back molars. Traditional porcelain is now less common. It is often replaced by these high-performance ceramics that eliminate dark metallic gumlines.
E-max crowns: These lithium disilicate ceramics offer superior light translucency. This makes them the gold standard for front teeth.
Zirconia crowns: Nicknamed white gold, this metal oxide handles extreme biting forces. It suits patients who grind teeth.
Porcelain crowns: Classic ceramics provide high aesthetics. However, they are more prone to chipping under heavy chewing pressure.
Clinical choice: Specialists typically recommend E-max for the smile zone. They also recommend monolithic zirconia for heavy-load back molars.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Turkey’s high-volume dental hubs increasingly favour zirconia for its 20-year durability. One such hub, Hospitadent, treats 100,000+ patients annually. While E-max is pricier due to aesthetic layering, zirconia often requires less tooth reduction. Patients should confirm if quotes cover monolithic or layered zirconia. The latter adds a porcelain finish for better colour matching.
Patient Consensus: Patients in Turkey report that smile makeovers are surprisingly fast. They are often completed in 2–4 days. They appreciate the detailed colour matching and the convenience of all-inclusive packages. These packages bundle hotel stays and VIP transfers.
How long does the porcelain crown procedure take in Turkey?
Porcelain crown treatment in Turkey usually requires 5 to 7 days for a perfect fit and bite alignment. While the clinical chair time takes 1 to 3 hours per appointment, patients typically attend 2 or 3 sessions for preparation, lab fabrication, and final bonding.
Treatment window: Most patients complete their full smile restoration within 4 to 7 days.
Clinical sessions: Patients can expect 2 to 3 appointments lasting 1 to 3 hours each session.
Preparation phase: Reshaping teeth and taking digital impressions takes about 60 to 90 minutes.
Laboratory time: Digital labs like the one at YEG Clinic often finish crowns within 4 days.
Same-day options: Clinics using chairside CAD/CAM technology can sometimes finish single crowns in 24 hours.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Australian patients benefit from doctors like Dr Omer Murat Sarac at My Nova Kusadasi, who trained at RMIT University in Melbourne. Choosing a clinic with an on-site lab, such as WestDent, often cuts waiting times by 48 hours. This is compared to clinics using external labs.
Patient Consensus: Patients should plan for about five days in Turkey. This allows time for final bite adjustments and gum settling. Patients found the process efficient when using digital smile design. They also appreciated having temporary crowns while the laboratory crafted their permanent porcelain teeth.
