I think it is the dentist not necessarily the practice.

I have had 3 dentists for clean only in Fethiye - 2 crap and one excellent. The last one at the place where I had an excellent dentist (sadly not there now) this time I had this girl.

Well I thought she must have just qualified but actually turned out she'd been practicing 3 years. My mouth was all bruised by the time she had finished, I have never ever had that before.

She seemed unable to get into a comfortable position to work - I had to ask her to do more work when she thought she had finished and even then she still didn't do a proper clean.

I used to go every 6 months in the UK and I do know what a proper clean entails.

Also check the price for a clean includes both the top and bottom teeth and ask for the price in TL.

Seems odd  that you ask this question on a thread that has recommended Dentists but you have booked with someone you know nothing about.
We got our Dentist in Turkey through great recommendation on CBF and everyone was right.
Also £275.00 does seems a lot cheaper than the U.K. for whitening, but about right for Turkey,  however, it depends what method is used and how many treatments you get for the money.  Probably best to ask the Dentist these questions before you go.  ;)

My dentist by the canal in Fethiye said whitening treatment is 5oo lira.They buy the pack from Germany and it is done over 2 hourly sessions.

Whilst everything else is really cheap in terms of dentistry we have found that teeth whitening is actually cheaper in the UK.

Lots of us on the forum have used dentists in Turkey and the overall experience and value tends to be better than in the UK

Tooth whitening was much cheaper in Turkey than in Scotland, plus there were more sessions and the results looked a lot better.

We live in Scotland, so as Billy Connolly would say, we only change from Blue to White in the Sun:D

Has anybody had implants done in Turkey. If so what are the costs?
I'm gong on Saturday to Bodrum area and am thinking of having 2 implants for 2 missing front teeth.
