Hello, my name is Ahmet Ali Bülüç. I am a dentist and partner of Dental Park Yalova. I was born in Denizli in 1982. I graduated from Ankara University in 2005. I do digital, aesthetic dentistry and implant dental work. My motivation is the happiness of our patients.

With the rapidly growing health tourism, a tourist coming to Yalova sees that the total costs such as hotel, plane transfer and dental treatment are less than the cost of dental treatment alone in any European country. In addition, during the time he spends in our country, he discovers many places to visit and receives both holiday and dental care.

Most of our patients who come from abroad for treatment prefer our Implant and Hollywood Smile treatments. It is used for implant treatments, known as dental screwing, and zirconium, porcelain crown and bridge treatments that replace the extracted tooth.

Aesthetically speaking, smile design and Hollywood Smile treatment are very popular and especially preferred by the young generation.
