Why is this treatment affordable in Turkey?

There are many reasons why Turkey is known for its affordable yet developed dental clinics. These are:

  • Convenient exchange rate
  • Easy access to visas
  • Cheap accommodation and transportation
  • No additional fees

Let us explain how these factors make Turkey an ideal destination for affordable yet developed dental clinics.

Convenient exchange rate

Turkey’s dental sector is growing at a rapid pace with many new and modern developments. According to a survey by Statista, Turkey’s revenue from the dental sector will increase from $683.7 million to $704.7 million by the end of 2023 (1). The exchange rate is much higher because the currency is much cheaper, especially against the US dollar and the euro. They get the same quality of work but at much cheaper prices.

Easy access to visas

One of Turkey’s many advantages is its smooth and easy visa process. US passport holders can apply for an e-visa, which is approved within 24-48 business hours. The e-visa for U.S. citizens is valid for a maximum of 90 days. On the other hand, those entering from Europe, such as Germany or Spain, do not need a visa and can enter with a valid passport or ID card.

Cheap accommodation and transportation

If you choose Turkey, besides dental services, accommodation and transportation are also quite cheap. Usually, accommodation and transportation are part of the dental tourism package you choose. Through these packages, the price of your entire trip decreases and you also do not have to worry about your transportation and accommodation. Dental tourism in Turkey is ideal because most clinics work with hotels and transportation companies that provide a complete medical tourism experience.

No additional fees

Unlike other countries, there are no fees in Turkey for other services, such as consultation fees, dental fees, staff fees, laboratory fees, etc. Everything is communicated to the patient before the treatment, so there can be no misunderstandings in the future. The initial consultation is free of charge, and no additional charges are made without the patient’s consent. Only in case of serious complications, additional costs are added to the total cost.
