In short
- A final plan and price shouldn’t be given without an examination and imaging.
- Ask for a clear, written treatment plan.
- Open communication where you can ask questions freely matters.
- Compare the scope of each plan, not just the price.
Examination and diagnosis
Good treatment starts with a good examination. Plans made without an oral exam and, where needed, X-rays or other imaging may be incomplete.
A transparent, written treatment plan
- Which treatment each tooth will receive
- The materials used
- Number of appointments and estimated time
- What the price includes
- Alternative options and the pros and cons of each
Communication and language
Being able to talk directly with the dentist who treats you, and to ask about anything unclear, is important. If you’re visiting from abroad, a dentist who speaks your language makes the process easier.
Hygiene and sterilisation
Don’t hesitate to ask how instruments are sterilised and how the clinic is kept clean. A trustworthy clinic will explain this openly.
Realistic expectations and follow-up
Every mouth is different; an approach that sets realistic expectations rather than guaranteeing results is reassuring. Check-ups and aftercare advice should be part of the plan.
Location and access
For treatments with several appointments, easy access to the clinic matters. Our clinic is in Konak, on Eşrefpaşa Caddesi, and is easy to reach from Karabağlar, Buca and the rest of Izmir.
