Istanbul Implant Treatment — Deltadiş Oral and Dental Health Polyclinic

A dental implant is a titanium post placed into the jawbone to take over the job of a missing tooth root. Once bone has grown onto its surface, the implant carries a crown, a bridge, or a restoration spanning the whole arch. Neighbouring teeth are not ground down in the process, and for many patients travelling from abroad that is the reason they choose an implant over a bridge.

If you are researching treatment from another country, the first question is not which flight to book. It is whether an implant suits your mouth at all. Gum health, the volume and density of bone at the gap, smoking, and general conditions such as poorly controlled diabetes all affect how bone responds to an implant. Some patients need a bone graft or a sinus lift before anything can be anchored; others are ready straight away.

None of that can be judged from a photograph or a phone call. At our clinic in Kağıthane a digital panoramic x-ray and an examination come first, and the plan follows from what they show.

Implant treatment is not one appointment. It is a surgical stage and, months later, a prosthetic stage. Placing an implant takes roughly 30 to 60 minutes under local anaesthesia, so the surgery itself is rarely what shapes your travel plan.

What shapes it is osseointegration: the period in which bone grows onto the implant surface. In the lower jaw this averages two to three months, in the upper jaw three to four. Nothing speeds it up, and the permanent crown is not fitted until it has happened. This is why patients from abroad are usually planned over two trips, with placement on the first and the final restoration on the second.

How many days each trip needs depends on your case, since extractions, grafting, or several implants change the arithmetic. You are told the number before you book anything, and we would rather quote a longer stay than have you rebook a flight.

Once you are home, our team stays reachable on WhatsApp at +90 546 124 48 29 for anything that comes up while you heal.

Özel Deltadiş Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği is a licensed polyclinic in Kağıthane, İstanbul, holding International Health Tourism Authorisation Certificate ST-6365 from the Turkish Ministry of Health. That certificate is worth reading correctly. It documents that the clinic is audited and authorised to treat patients from abroad. It says nothing about how your particular case will turn out, and no dentist can promise that.

Seven dentists work here across five separate clinic areas, with more than 15 years of clinical experience and over 10,000 patients treated, including patients from 37 countries. Sixteen treatments are handled under one roof, so if your implant plan turns out to need periodontal work or a graft first, you are not sent across the city to arrange it yourself.

The implant systems we place come from manufacturers including Straumann, Nobel Biocare, Astra Tech, Medentika and Bredent SKY, carrying CE and FDA certification. You are told which system is going into your jaw before surgery, and you leave with it written down.

Write to us before you travel. WhatsApp +90 546 124 48 29 is our line for international patients, and info@deltadis.com.tr works if you prefer email. If your dentist at home has already taken a panoramic x-ray, send it. It lets us tell you early whether your case looks straightforward or is likely to need grafting, which is the difference between a short trip and a longer one.

The first examination at the clinic, digital panoramic x-ray included, is free of charge. It ends with a written treatment plan and a transparent price for your case. We do not quote figures over the phone for a mouth we have not seen: what implant treatment costs depends on the number of implants, the restoration material, and any additional procedure your jaw needs.

We are open Monday to Saturday, 10:00 to 20:00, closed Sundays, and English, Russian and German are spoken here. The address is Ortabayır Mahallesi, Talatpaşa Caddesi, BLN Levent No: 80/A, Kağıthane, roughly a 13 to 15 minute walk from 4. Levent station on the M2 metro.
