DENTAL CROWNS in TURKEY
What is Dental Crowns Treatment?
Dental crown treatment is one of the most common cosmetic and restorative dentistry procedures in Turkey. A dental crown can be described as a protective covering that fits over an existing tooth to restore its shape, strength, and appearance.
Although crowns are sometimes confused with dental veneers, they are not the same treatment. Veneers cover only the front surface of the tooth, while crowns cover the entire tooth structure. This makes crowns a suitable option for teeth that require more comprehensive support.
At Lifemed Partners, we coordinate dental crown treatments through our trusted partner clinics in Turkey. Based on extensive experience, the primary goal of crown treatment planning is always to achieve a natural-looking and functional result. All treatment details are discussed with you in advance to ensure the most suitable outcome for your needs.
Types of Dental Crowns Used in Turkey
Through our partner clinics, several types of dental crowns are available in Turkey:
Ceramic Crowns: An all-ceramic crown consists entirely of porcelain or another type of ceramic. The crown sits over a filed-down tooth in order to restore its appearance, shape, or structure.
Porcelain Crowns: Porcelain crowns restore the natural appearance of your teeth. Porcelain crowns are designed to match your existing teeth, which is important if you need one on your front teeth. They're more aesthetic than metal crowns.
Zirconia Crowns: Zirconia is one of the newer materials used for dental restorative treatments. A zirconium oxide is a type of ceramic that is stronger than porcelain and some metal alloys. It encounters fewer sharp edges due to normal wear and tear.
Metal Crowns: Dental crowns are made from several metals by dental technicians. It is rare for metal crowns to chip or break. As far as wear is concerned, they last the longest, and they only require a small amount of enamel removal. Additionally, they can withstand biting and chewing.
Composite Resin Crowns: A resin composite is a material that replaces lost tooth tissue, regulates the colour and contour of a tooth, and improves facial aesthetics as a result. It is possible to apply resin composites for a wide range of purposes on the market.
Who Is a Suitable Candidate for Dental Crowns?
Dental crowns may be recommended for individuals experiencing:
-
Broken, cracked, or fractured teeth
-
Teeth weakened by large fillings
-
Severe tooth decay
-
Missing teeth following extraction (in combination with dental implants)
-
Teeth that are worn down, eroded, or undersized
Your dentist may also recommend crown treatment when a tooth requires additional support after removing a small amount of enamel to securely place the crown.
Difference Between Veneers and Crowns
-
A veneer covers only the front surface of a tooth. Crowns replace the entire biting surface of a tooth.
-
Veneers must be applied to natural teeth. A dental crown can replace a natural tooth on a dental implant.
-
Crowns and veneers are typically reserved for molars and premolars when applied to natural teeth.
-
Costs for veneers are lower than crowns.
-
Veneers and crowns can be made from some of the same materials, but crowns are put under a lot more force when chewed.
-
Crowns are primarily a restorative treatment that restores appearance, while veneers are mostly cosmetic.

Advantages of Having Dental Crowns in Turkey
Turkey is one of the most preferred destinations for dental crown treatments due to its combination of high-quality care and cost advantages. Compared to many European countries, the UK, and the USA, dental crown treatments in Turkey are significantly more affordable while maintaining international standards of quality.
Turkey’s experienced dental professionals and modern clinics attract thousands of international patients each year seeking reliable and efficient dental solutions.
Duration and Longevity of Dental Crowns
Dental crown treatments in Turkey generally require a stay of up to 5 days, although a slightly longer stay may be recommended for follow-up care and comfort.
With proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, dental crowns can last between 10 and 30 years, depending on the material used, oral care habits, and the crown’s position in the mouth.
