For many patients in Brussels and Wallonia, the first question about dental treatment in Turkey is not only "how much?" but "who will see me before I go, and who will I see when I come back?" At D-Care Belgium in Ixelles, Brussels, you can begin your treatment journey with an in-person dental consultation close to home, before you book a flight to Antalya. This article explains what that first appointment involves, what it can and cannot decide, and how it connects with our clinic in Side.
Why see a dentist in Brussels before treatment in Turkey?
Photos and a video call can give a first impression, but they cannot replace a clinical examination. Seeing a dentist in person before you travel helps to:
spot gum disease, infection or loose teeth that may need attention before implants or crowns
understand whether you are likely to be a candidate for dental implants, All-on-4 / All-on-6, zirconia crowns or veneers
identify which imaging is still needed, such as a panoramic X-ray or a 3D CBCT scan
talk through your medical history, your medications and any anxiety about treatment
plan a realistic timeline, including whether one trip or two is likely
Just as importantly, you meet a team face to face before committing to anything, and you know exactly where you can return for check-ups after treatment.
What happens at the consultation in Ixelles
The appointment is a conversation as much as an examination. You can expect:
a review of your dental and medical history, including factors such as diabetes, blood thinners or smoking that can influence healing
an examination of your teeth, gums and bite
a discussion of your goals: chewing comfort, appearance, budget and how much time you can spend travelling
guidance on the records our team in Turkey needs: recent X-rays or a CBCT scan, photos and any previous treatment reports
time for all your questions, without pressure to decide on the day
With your agreement, your records are then shared with our team at D-Care Turkey in Side, so the surgeons and the prosthodontist can review your case before you travel and prepare a treatment proposal.
What the consultation can — and cannot — decide
A consultation in Brussels gives you a much clearer picture, but the final treatment plan is only confirmed after a complete examination and up-to-date imaging. In Side we use an intraoral scanner and review 3D imaging before any surgery. Sometimes this changes the plan: bone volume may be different than expected, or a tooth that looked savable may not be. If anything changes, we explain it and the reasons for it before treatment begins.
For this reason we do not promise a fixed price or a guaranteed result from photos alone. What we can offer is transparency: you will know what is proposed, why it is proposed, and which alternatives exist.
How D-Care Belgium and D-Care Turkey work together
Our two clinics work as one team across two countries. In practice, your journey looks like this:
Before travel: consultation in Ixelles, collection of your records and a treatment proposal from Side
In Turkey: treatment at our clinic in Side / Manavgat, led by Dr. Öznur Yedek (surgeon and head of clinic) together with surgeon Emin, dentist Bilal and prosthodontist Çisel
Comfort: for All-on-4 / All-on-6 and multiple implants, conscious sedation administered by an anaesthesiologist
Stay and transfers: partner hotels Side Moon Palace and Side Amour Hotel, with clinic–hotel–airport transfers organised through a TÜRSAB-licensed agency
After you return: check-ups and follow-up in Ixelles, with information shared between both clinics
This means you are not on your own once you fly home. If something feels unusual — swelling, discomfort with a temporary prosthesis, a crown that feels loose — you can contact us and arrange to be seen in Brussels, while the team in Side stays informed about your case.
How to prepare for your first appointment
a list of your medications and medical conditions
any recent X-rays or scans (on USB, CD or via a digital link)
previous dental reports or treatment plans from other dentists
a few photos of your smile if appearance is one of your concerns
your questions written down — no question is too small
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to come to Brussels before treatment in Turkey?
No. Many patients send their records online. But if you live in Brussels or Wallonia and prefer to meet a dentist first, a consultation in Ixelles is a reassuring way to start.
Will I know the final price after the consultation?
You will receive a treatment proposal and an estimate based on the information available. The final plan and cost are confirmed in Side after a full examination and imaging, and any change is explained to you before treatment.
Can I have my check-ups in Brussels after treatment?
Yes. After treatment in Turkey, you can be followed up at D-Care Belgium in Ixelles, in coordination with our clinic in Side.
Can I have the consultation in French?
Yes. We welcome French-speaking patients from Brussels and Wallonia, and we can also help you in English.
