Health Tourism with Dr Smile Antalya
Travelling abroad for dental treatment is no longer just about “saving money”. For many of our patients from the UK and across Europe, it’s about combining high-quality clinical care with a stress-free break in one of the most beautiful regions of Turkey.
At Dr Smile Antalya, we’ve built our entire approach around health tourism: from airport pick-up to your final check-up, every step is planned to be clear, safe and comfortable.
Advanced Dental Technology You Can Rely On
3Shape® Digital Scanning & Smile Design
Traditional impressions with trays and putty can be uncomfortable – especially for patients with a sensitive gag reflex. Instead, we use 3Shape intraoral scanners to create a precise 3D model of your teeth and bite.
With 3Shape, we can:
- Take digital impressions quickly and comfortably
- Plan smile design based on your facial features, age and preferences
- • Show you a digital preview and discuss tooth shape, length and color
- • Communicate seamlessly with our dental laboratory
This ensures that your zirconia crowns, veneers or implant restorations are not only strong, but also natural-looking and well balanced.
Panoramic Dental X-Ray
Panoramic dental X-rays allow us to see your entire mouth in a single, detailed image – including all teeth, both jaws, sinuses and jaw joints. In just a few seconds, we can assess tooth roots, bone levels, hidden decay, infections, cysts and wisdom teeth, and use this information to plan your treatment safely and precisely.
At our clinic, we use modern digital panoramic X-ray technology, which works with a very low radiation dose and provides high-resolution images instantly on screen. This is especially important for implant treatments, All-on-4 / All-on-6 restorations, extractions and smile design, where every millimetre matters.
iMetric Implant Scan
Photogrammetry for Full-Arch Cases
For patients having All-on-4 or All-on-6 implant treatments, precision is everything. Small inaccuracies in measuring implant angles or positions can influence:
• How your bite feels
• The comfort of your bridge
• Long-term durability of the restoration
To minimise this risk, Dr Smile Antalya uses the iMetric implant scan system (photogrammetry).
With special scanning abutments attached to your implants, we can:
- Capture the exact 3D position and angle of each implant in space
- Transfer this data into our design software with extremely low deviation
- Fabricate full-arch zirconia or hybrid bridges that fit with very high accuracy
In short: we use technology to bring your digital treatment plan to life with maximum precision.
Your Health Tourism Journey
with Dr Smile Antalya

Before You Travel
Most patients first meet us either:
• at one of our UK meetings, or
• via an online video call.
At this stage, we:
• Review your photos, X-rays or reports (if you have them)
• Discuss your expectations and concerns
• Provide a preliminary treatment plan and cost estimate
There is no pressure and no commitment at this stage – just information. If you decide to go ahead, we agree on a suitable time frame and outline your expected number of visits.
