Yes. Most dentists will probably be able to fit you in.

I walked into the dentists on Monday morning, made an appointment for Monday afternoon and had three new crowns made and fitted by Thursday lunchtime! That was last September and haven't had a bit of trouble with them!

My son and our friend both used a guy called Volkan in Fethiye. I understand he's moved his practice now but he was very good and very understanding. His mobile number is: 0250 614 7115.

He also gave me a full check up but was unable to do the work due to a slight gum problem I had at the time. He would not take any money for his time - in his words: " Why should you pay? I haven't done anything to your teeth yet?"

Can i say a big thank you to who ever recommended Cagatay Aras! I have never been to a dentist before and NOT suffered pain. This guy was brilliant! having a crown done so not just a brush and tickle job. My mum and my partner are now intrested in having work done. I do not praise lightly this guy is GOOD and his prices are very good compared to Uk. Thank you from a big softy x

Sorry I was too late to recommend Cagatay I have been going to him since I arrived He is excellent. I also have a pal coming over on hols and has turned the visit into a dental holiday and having some extensive work done while she is here at a fraction of the cost  quoted in UK . Well done Cagagtay!

Mrs KKOB had a load of work done by Cagatay for £1,200 which would have cost something like £5,000 in the UK.  She also got 7 months Taksit.

Cagatay has quoted me 400TL for two porcelain crowns. Planning to visit in May.  He is based in the Likya shopping centre. Is that the new centre close to Bazaar and Pasa Kebap?

If you were to come out of Carrefour and turn right heading towards Paspatur, it's the new building across the road, about 200 metres along on the corner. He's on the first floor.

His name is Cagatay Aras and his email address is cagatayaras(at)yahoo(dot)com

I think he charges 50 YTL for a clean.

Is Cagatay Aras's english good? I need to see a dentist, however due to having a heart murmur, I need to have antibiotics before any treatment, and although my turkish is passable, and hubby is turkish, neither of us know what my condition is in turkish and I need to make sure I explain properly.

Did I read on here that Cagatay the dentist has changed his email address, just that I emailed him last week to see if I could make an appointment and did not hear back from him, I wonder if I sent it to the correct email address.
Thanks in advance for any help.
