Understanding the cost and value of dental implant packages in Turkey
British patients often face two separate bills: one for the extraction and another for the implant. In the UK, a surgical extraction of a broken molar or a failed root canal typically costs between £180 and £450. Adding a single dental implant later usually costs another £1,800–£2,800. Turkish clinics combine both procedures into one transparent package, making the full mouth dental implants Turkey price and single implant pricing much easier to understand and budget for.
Below is a dental implant Turkey cost comparison, so you can compare UK private treatment costs with a Turkish combined extraction and implant package.
| Service | UK private (separate bills) | Turkish package (extraction + implant) |
|---|---|---|
Surgical tooth extraction | £180–£450 | Included |
3D CBCT scan (before extraction) | £100–£250 | Included |
Grade 5 titanium implant + abutment | £1,800–£2,800 | Included |
Zirconia or E-max crown | £700–£1,200 | Included |
Intravenous sedation (if needed) | £250–£600 | Included |
Total visible cost | £3,030–£5,300 | From £1,250 |
The dental implant Turkey cost for a single tooth (including extraction) starts at roughly one‑fifth of the UK private price. That difference is not a reduction in quality – it is a result of lower overheads, in‑house laboratory production, and high surgical volume.
Many people wonder, “Is it safe to have dental implants in Turkey?” And here are the advantages of choosing a combined extraction‑and‑implant package in Turkey:
- One price for both procedures. You do not pay twice for diagnostics, sedation, or follow up appointments.
- No surprise laboratory fees. Your crown is milled on site while you wait.
- CE certified materials as standard. We use the same European implant systems found in London clinics.
- Extraction and implant are often in one trip. You do not travel twice for two separate surgical events.
For patients missing all their teeth, the full mouth dental implant Turkey price for an All-on-4 arch (including the extraction of any remaining teeth) typically ranges from £3,000 to £6,500. On treatments like full mouth dental implants, Turkey’s prices allow patients to save thousands of pounds compared with UK private clinics, instead of spending a fortune on treatment alone.
Our comprehensive dental implant services at TurSmile in Turkey
At TurSmile in Turkey, we have structured every clinical pathway to include extraction where needed. You do not coordinate between a general dentist for the removal and a separate surgeon for the implant.
Our team does both under one roof and answers all your questions, including “Is it safe to have dental implants in Turkey?”. We offer the following extraction‑and‑implant services for international patients:
- Single tooth extraction + immediate or delayed implant. One missing tooth replaced without touching adjacent teeth.
- Extraction + implant supported bridge. For two or three missing teeth in a row. Two implants carry a three unit bridge.
- Full mouth dental implant Turkey (All on 4). Extraction of all non viable teeth, placement of four implants per arch, and a fixed temporary bridge on the same day.
- All on 6. Six implants per arch for patients with higher bite force requirements.
- Bone grafting at the time of extraction. If your socket is damaged, we place graft material immediately to preserve bone for the future implant.
Our in‑house CAD/CAM laboratory means your temporary crown or bridge is milled while you rest. You never leave Turkey with a gap or a removable denture.

A day-by-day timeline for your dental implant Turkey procedure at TurSmile in Turkey
Planning your timeline in Turkey starts with understanding what happens immediately after a tooth is removed – and why you cannot rush the healing that follows. Here is how the first trip to Turkey unfolds when extraction and implant are planned together:
Day one. Arrival and diagnostics. VIP transfer. Hotel check‑in. CBCT scan and digital impressions.
Day three. Same-day temporary restoration. While you relax, our in‑house laboratory mills your temporary crown. By late afternoon, your temporary tooth is torqued into place.
Day of departure. Final check. Post‑operative X‑ray confirms correct placement. You receive aftercare instructions and an Implant Passport.
Day two. Extraction and surgical placement (if delayed protocol). The damaged tooth is removed. The socket is cleaned. In the same appointment, the implant is placed into the healed bone (if enough time has passed since extraction), or the socket is left to heal with a bone graft.
Days four to seven. Recovery. Rest at your hotel. Soft food diet. No smoking. Daily clinical support if needed.
Recovery tips and aftercare guidelines
The period between your extraction in Turkey and the final crown is when osseointegration occurs. Your daily habits directly determine whether the implant integrates successfully or fails. Follow these four rules without exception.
Diet
Stick to soft foods only for the first ten days. Examples include yoghurt, mashed potatoes, soup, scrambled eggs, and smoothies (no straws). Avoid hard, crunchy, or sticky foods that could disturb the healing site.
Smoking
Nicotine constricts blood vessels and dramatically reduces healing capacity. If you smoke, you must stop at least two weeks before surgery and continue to abstain for eight weeks after. Patients who smoke have a failure rate up to three times higher than non‑smokers.
Oral hygiene
Use a soft toothbrush to clean around the healing abutment twice daily. Do not floss against the implant site until your surgeon confirms it is safe – usually after the permanent crown is fitted.
Warning signs
Mild swelling and discomfort are normal for the first three days. Contact your clinic immediately if you experience pain that worsens after day three, swelling that spreads to your face or neck, bleeding that does not stop, or a fever over 38°C.
Factors that can affect treatment time
Not every extraction‑and‑implant case follows the ideal timeline. Several factors can extend your time in Turkey or the waiting period between trips.
- Bone grafting at extraction. If the socket is damaged, we add graft material immediately. Add four to six months before implant placement.
- Sinus lift. For upper molars, the sinus cavity may be too low. Add six to eight months.
- Infection at the extraction site. If the tooth had an abscess, the site must heal completely before an implant can be placed. Add three to four months.
- Smoking and uncontrolled diabetes. Both impair healing. Your timeline may be extended.
Why choose TurSmile for tooth extraction and implant treatment in Turkey?
Choosing the right clinic for your extraction and implant journey determines not only the outcome but also the peace of mind you experience along the way. Below are the specific reasons why patients trust TurSmile over every other provider in Turkey:
- An in house CAD/CAM laboratory. Your crown is milled on site while you wait, eliminating weeks of outsourcing and ensuring a perfect fit before you leave the clinic.
- An implant passport with every restoration. This document lists every component brand, catalogue number and lot number, so your UK dentist can service your implant without any difficulty.
- An all inclusive price with zero hidden fees. Your quoted package covers airport transfers, five star hotel accommodation, all diagnostics, sedation, temporary and final restorations – no surprises at checkout.
- A five year treatment guarantee and lifetime implant warranty. If any component fails, we replace it at no cost, and we offer remote follow up consultations after you return home.
- An English speaking patient coordinator 24/7. This professional accompanies you to every appointment in Turkey, manages your logistics, and answers WhatsApp messages within minutes – even at midnight.
- Complex cases that other clinics refuse. Bone grafting, sinus lifts, infected sockets and failed previous implants are our routine procedures, not problems to be referred away.
FAQs
How long does it take to get teeth implants in Turkey?
The full treatment takes five to nine months. The surgical placement itself takes 1-2 hours. The rest of the timeline is osseointegration – your jawbone growing tightly around the titanium post – which cannot be rushed.
How long to wait between tooth extraction and implant?
Most patients wait three to six months after an extraction before the implant can be placed, giving the bone adequate time to heal and stabilise. In ideal conditions – no active infection, thick bone, and intact socket walls – an immediate implant can be placed on the same day as the extraction.
How many trips to Turkey for implants?
You will need two trips: the first for extraction, implant placement, and a temporary restoration (7-10 days), and the second for your final crown or bridge (3-5 days) after four to six months of healing. Some single‑tooth cases using immediate loading can be completed in one trip of ten to twelve days, but the two‑visit model is safer and more predictable.
How much does a 1 tooth implant cost in Turkey?
A single tooth implant package, including the extraction (if needed), the implant fixture, abutment, and permanent crown, typically costs between £1,250 and £1,850. That is 70–80% lower than comparable UK private fees, with no hidden charges for CBCT scans, sedation (when clinically required), or aftercare.
How do I prepare for implants?
Stop smoking at least two weeks before surgery, arrange a CBCT scan (either before travel or on your first day in Turkey), and plan for a soft‑food diet during the first ten days of recovery. You should also take five to seven days off work for the first trip and arrange a companion if you prefer intravenous sedation.
What I wish I knew before dental implants?
The waiting period for bone healing is the hardest part – not the extraction or the surgery itself, both of which are usually less uncomfortable than a routine filling for most patients. Also, choosing a cheap bridge now will cost you three times more in the long run, as adjacent teeth decay under the crowns and your jawbone resorbs over time.
What is the most feared dental procedure?
Tooth extractions and implant surgery consistently rank as the most feared dental procedures, but with modern pain management and sedation, most patients report less discomfort than they expected. The fear is almost always worse than the reality, and the vast majority say they would undergo the same treatment again without hesitation.
When do most dental implants fail?
Most failures occur within the first three to six months before osseointegration completes, with the primary causes being smoking, uncontrolled diabetes, infection at the time of extraction or placement, or overloading the implant too early with a temporary restoration. In healthy non‑smoking patients, the success rate for a dental implant Turkey procedure is 95-98% at twenty‑five years.
