One of the most expensive dental treatments currently available, it's possible to save over ten thousand pounds on the All-on-4® treatment concept by Nobel Biocare by heading to Turkey.
If you are thinking about replacing all of your teeth or just a single arch, this procedure offers a more natural-looking, secure alternative to dentures. With prices 50%-70% lower in Turkey, this presents a great opportunity to not only save but also enjoy this alluring Eurasian country that's home to world-class dental clinics and expert implantologists.

This procedure in the UK will cost you somewhere in the region of £16,033 (€19,144). At two of the best dental clinics in Turkey, however, the same treatment will only set you back:

Understanding the Procedure
Essentially, the All-on-4® treatment concept utilizes just four dental implants that support an entire upper or lower bridge of teeth.
The replacement teeth are acrylic and have an artificial gum line. Also known as “same-day implants” in the US, the procedure can be carried out in a single visit in cases where extractions are not required, although you will only be fitted with a temporary "healing" prosthesis to begin with.
As with all implant procedures, you will need to revisit the dentist after four to six months to ensure that the implants have fused securely into your jawbone. In cases where the integrity of the jawbone is too fragile to support implants, a bone graft can be carried out first to provide a solid enough foundation.
The first successful procedure was performed in 1998 and since then countless people have revamped their dental health and smile with this technique. For many years now, people from countries such as the UK and the US have been travelling abroad to get this procedure at an affordable price. For Brits, Turkey offers the chance to save a small fortune whilst enjoying an amazing Turkish holiday at the same time, as the difference in price will more than cover your travel and accommodation expenses.
