Your dental holiday questions, answered

Most complete treatments take 5–8 nights for the first visit. Veneers and crowns can often be finished in a single trip, while implants usually need a short second visit a few months later, once they have healed, to fit the permanent teeth.

Veneers, crowns and bridges are frequently completed in one visit. Implants and full-arch work generally need two: the first for placement and temporary teeth, the second a few months later for the final restoration. A good clinic plans both with you from the outset.

Spring and autumn (March–May, September–November) offer warm weather and lower flight prices, making them ideal for recovery. Summer is hottest and busiest. Your liaison can advise the best window around your treatment plan.

At a full-service dental tourism clinic such as Taki Dent, a private airport transfer and a 4-star partner hotel rate are built into the package. Flights are normally the only large cost you arrange yourself — typically £120–£300 return from the UK.

Your liaison is one named, English-speaking coordinator who runs your whole trip: appointments, travel, questions and aftercare, from first enquiry to final fit. It means you never have to navigate a clinic in a second language while recovering.

A complete package sends you home with a written aftercare plan and a UK-dentist handover sheet, plus a remote support channel. If an adjustment is ever needed, your liaison helps arrange it rather than leaving you to sort it alone.

Yes — even with flights, hotel and meals, UK patients typically save 60–70% versus UK private dentistry. On full-arch work the saving usually runs to several thousand pounds per arch, which is why full-mouth patients travel the most.

At an accredited clinic, yes. Leading clinics use the same global implant brands (Straumann, Nobel Biocare), follow international sterilisation standards and often hold JCI accreditation. The real risk lies with budget operators that cut corners on aftercare — which is exactly why we score clinics on the whole package.

Compare them on the journey, not just the price. Our clinic comparison scores each one across transfers, hotel, UK liaison, aftercare, emergency cover and guarantee. Taki Dent in Antalya scores full marks on every criterion, which is why it ranks first at 9.8/10.
