I would be cautious of good postings in a guestbook or on a website as they could be self generated.I would go for referals from people you know or members off this forum.This is my personel feeling.

Hi Bee,  I had major dentistry done about 4 years ago now, while up in Bodrum.  I had the whole lot capped and several bridges over a period of 2 months.  To date I have had only one problem and needed some route canal work done, this was performed by Cagatay in Fethiye, who I too can highly recommend.  I have been here many years and used several dentisits, all have been very hygenic and as painless as possible, I am a scaredy cat when it comes to dentists!

I suppose what I had done was cosmetic [:o] Essential too though  ;)

Cagatay was superb, you just act like a big wimp the first time you visit and the extra big injection and longer wait before commencing work are automatic from then on. I had much differing works, in particular I was pleased with the veneer work to my front teeth. I would expect them to be like my front teeth, that is why they take impressions; but the setting of them was incredibly accurate too. From top to bottom they are not parallel/straight to each other by about a quarter of a millimetre - you couldn't possibly see that by sight, I can't even see it and I know it's the case - but with use of the tongue, the setting is identical to the original.

I can't comment on other dentists in Fethiye as I've only been to Cagatay, but I can guarantee I won't be trying anyone else.

Anyone got a rough idea of how much it would be to have a crown fitted?  My husband has just been quoted almost £500 over here from our dentist, which includes a check up, all the necessary crown work, and a brush and polish at the end.  Sounds a lot to me!   :-\

Definitely the same there, 500, but in lira :D

Actually I can't remember exactly, maybe even less. I got a sort of lump sum price for my pearlies  :) 375 lira rings a bell. Perhaps.

Crowns are normally circa £120 - £150 each in Turkey.

You can contact Cagatay via CBF, if you search for dentiscagatay in members, and email him that way.

Good luck  :)
