Many UK patients who reach us have had a previous experience that did not go well — sometimes overseas, sometimes at home. They arrive cautious, with reasonable doubt. This page sets out, plainly, how the first contact works, what gets agreed before you fly, and what your first day at the clinic actually looks like. The plan is finalised in writing before any flight is booked. Nothing is decided in the chair.
Consultation room · NişantaşıFrom thousands of first conversations, the same six concerns come up. We name them openly — and we explain how we handle each one.
UK English throughout. Dr. Cansu Öztürk speaks English; reception, nursing and the aftercare coordinator are all English-speaking. WhatsApp correspondence and every document — treatment plan, consent form, warranty terms — in English.
No chair-side upsell. The plan is finalised in writing before you fly. The first clinic visit is a clinical reaffirmation, not a sales meeting. If a clinical finding genuinely requires a change, it is discussed openly with options and costs in writing — the decision sits with you.

You can show the plan to your UK dentist, your private insurer, or simply sleep on it before you decide anything.
Included: warranty matrix (10 / 5 / 2 / 1 years), schedule, accommodation and transfer options, total cost in GBP. Warranty terms → · Cost vs UK private →
The plan was already agreed in writing. The first clinic day reaffirms it clinically. A typical morning:
What this is not. It is not the moment of "deciding to go ahead" — that decision was made before the flight was booked. It is the moment of clinically reaffirming what we already agreed. Treatment then begins on the schedule already in your plan.
Once treatment is under way, the structure is built around your comfort:
Trip length: 5–7 nights for most treatments; 10–14 nights for full-mouth rehabilitation. Plan your stay → · Sedation options →
"I'd braced myself for sales pressure. Instead I got 90 minutes of actual conversation, the plan to take home — and the line: 'sleep on it.' That made the difference."
— Mrs M. · Manchester · 2024
"IV sedation finally let me sit through what 30 years of dental anxiety had stopped me from doing. Discussed in detail in the video call beforehand — no surprise in the chair."
— Mr K. · Edinburgh · 2024
"My husband sat in for the first appointment. That alone built the trust. By the second visit — the actual treatment — I was relaxed."
— Mrs S. · London · 2024
