How to Choose the Best Clinic — for Irish Patients

How Irish patients should choose a clinic in Turkey

Choosing a dental clinic abroad is a decision about trust. Prices online are tempting, but quality and safety vary widely. Here are the criteria that matter for Irish patients — and how Smile & Holiday meets each.

1. Verifiable accreditation

Ask for proof: ISO 9001, dentists registered with the Turkish Ministry of Health, professional-association membership. We provide it without hesitation.

2. Premium materials only

Insist on named brands with evidence. We use only Straumann, Nobel Biocare and Ivoclar Vivadent, CE/FDA certified with batch numbers in your file.

3. A written warranty

Get it in writing: a 10-year manufacturer warranty on implants plus a lifetime clinical guarantee, with a clear plan if a complication ever arises.

4. Genuine English-speaking care

You must understand everything you sign. Our coordinators and clinicians work in English from first contact to aftercare.

5. Transparent euro pricing

A price agreed in euros up front that holds throughout — no extras on arrival. Irish patients save substantially versus prices at home.

6. Independently verified reviews

Check Trustpilot and Google, not just the clinic's own page. We hold Trustpilot 4.9/5 from hundreds of patients and connect you with former Irish patients on request.

Why Fethiye beats Antalya for Irish patients

Dublin has a direct flight to Dalaman, just 45 minutes from our clinic — versus a roughly three-hour transfer to Antalya. Less travel fatigue, more time by the sea.

Why Smile & Holiday

We meet every criterion above, add a free airport transfer and 4-star hotel partners, and stay available remotely after you go home. Treatment is conservative — we never sacrifice healthy teeth.
