Independent UK patient guide
Clinical assessment required before any treatment plan
From the UK to treatment and back
The surgical appointment is one phase. Diagnosis, consent, provisional teeth, healing, the final bridge and accessible aftercare are equally important.
Six connected phases
Exact timing varies by patient and plan. A provider should explain which steps take place remotely, in Türkiye and after you return to the UK.
Before any diagnosis
Share your goals and understand which records may be useful. An early remote discussion can organise information, but it should not be presented as a definitive clinical diagnosis.
Before a final plan
A dentist examines your mouth, reviews health and medication, assesses the teeth and gums and uses appropriate imaging. Remaining teeth, bone, bite, restorative space and alternatives are considered.
Before travel and payment
The plan should explain why four or six implants are proposed, the bridge, materials, loading protocol, likely trips, costs, risks and aftercare. You should have time to ask questions and decide.
Clinical timing varies
Treatment may involve extractions, implant placement and a provisional restoration. Immediate fixed provisional teeth are possible only when clinical criteria are met; a different temporary option must be planned if they are not.
Usually measured in months
The tissues and bone need time to heal. Reviews monitor comfort, hygiene, the provisional bridge, bite and implant integration. Contact the treating team promptly if something changes.
After appropriate healing
The final bridge is assessed for fit, appearance, speech, bite, comfort and cleaning access. Long-term care includes daily plaque control, professional maintenance and a plan for component or bridge repairs.
