Dental Implants: Who Are They For?
Dental implants are the right choice if you have one or more missing teeth. An implant is a titanium screw surgically placed in the jawbone, functioning as an artificial tooth root. A crown is placed on top, identical to a natural tooth. Implants are permanent and, with proper care, can last a lifetime. Cost per implant in Turkey: €350–€700, versus €1,500–€2,500 in the UK.
Veneers: Who Are They For?
Veneers are thin, custom-made shells bonded to the front surface of existing teeth. They're ideal if your teeth are discoloured, slightly damaged, or irregularly shaped — but still present. Veneers don't replace missing teeth and are less invasive than implants. They're purely cosmetic.
