Turkey Teeth FAQs 

“Turkey teeth” is a popular phrase for cosmetic dental work done in Turkey — typically veneers, crowns, or full-mouth restorations (sometimes with implants). It isn’t a clinical term. At UK Smiles™, we focus on face-driven smile design and minimal-prep techniques wherever possible.

Yes — when carried out in a certified Dental Centre with strict sterilisation, experienced specialists, proper X-rays/scans, and clear aftercare. We partner only with a Dental Centre (higher accreditation than a standard clinic) and provide UK-based consultations and aftercare.

Anything from natural A1–A2 to Hollywood BL1–BL2 — you choose. We adjust translucency, surface texture, and tooth shapes so the smile suits your face, lip line, and skin tone. See our Before & After Gallery.

No—when planned properly. We use minimal-prep or no-prep where suitable, preserving as much enamel as possible.

Emax (lithium disilicate) for lifelike translucency (veneers/crowns).

Zirconia for strength and durability (crowns/bridges).

Titanium implants with ceramic or zirconia crowns.

Emax = most natural translucency; great for veneers and front-tooth crowns.

Zirconia = stronger; ideal for back teeth, bridges, or high-load cases.

Aftercare (with support in the UK).

Composite is more affordable but less durable and more prone to staining. Porcelain (Emax) lasts longer, holds shine/shape, and needs less upkeep.

Yes. We preview Natural, Balanced, Hollywood styles in Digital Smile Design, then match lower teeth/skin tone for harmony.

Guides (case-dependent): veneers ~£200–£300/tooth, crowns ~£150–£200, single implant ~£400–£600, All-on-4 full arch from ~£3,000. You’ll receive a fixed, transparent quote after assessment.
