How Treatment Works for International Patients
Quick answer
Getting treatment in Istanbul with Dr. İşler follows five clear steps: you send a recent X-ray or CBCT scan on WhatsApp for a remote assessment; Dr. İşler returns a fixed, itemised written quote; you plan your trip around a confirmed schedule; you have your treatment, planned and performed by Dr. İşler personally; then you fly home with a full records package and remote aftercare. There are no surprise costs on arrival.
How does treatment with Dr. İşler actually work?
It works in five clear steps, and the same dentist is behind all of them. You start with a remote consultation on WhatsApp, receive a fixed written quote, plan your trip, have your treatment in Fatih, then fly home with a full records package and remote aftercare. There is no call centre and no rotating team: the person who reviews your X-ray is the person who treats you in the chair.
Why start with a remote consultation?
Because an honest plan needs a look at your bone and gums first. When you send a recent panoramic X-ray or CBCT scan on WhatsApp, Dr. İşler can assess whether an implant is viable, whether you’ll need a bone graft, and how many visits are realistic, before you commit to travel. If a treatment isn’t safe or sensible for you, we say so plainly.
What’s in your written quote?
Every item, listed separately. Your quote breaks down implants, abutments, crowns, any grafting and the specific brands used, priced in EUR or GBP. We avoid all-in “packages” that hide what you are actually paying for, so you can compare our quote fairly against a clinic at home.
How do I plan the trip?
Once you approve the plan, we confirm how many days you’ll need and share a treatment schedule. You book your own flights and accommodation (we can suggest hotels near the clinic in Fatih), which keeps your travel budget in your hands. Turkey’s health-tourism sector is state-regulated, and we’re happy to answer any safety questions before you book.
What happens during treatment?
Dr. İşler personally carries out your treatment at the clinic in Fatih. Premium implant brands are used and their lot numbers written into your records. Where your case needs healing time between stages, for example the months of osseointegration (the jawbone fusing to the implant) before a crown is fitted, we plan your visits around biology rather than rushing to finish in a single trip.
What aftercare do I get once I’m home?
You leave with a complete records package (X-rays, materials, lot numbers, your written warranty and a summary for your home dentist) so any dentist can pick up your care. Dr. İşler stays reachable on WhatsApp for follow-up questions and can review your healing remotely from photos or a fresh scan.
