In 2026, dental treatment prices vary with the procedure, the number of teeth, the material used and how difficult the treatment is. The Turkish Dental Association's (TDB) 2026 guide fee schedule is a basic reference for comparing fees.
This guide shows TDB values including VAT as of 3 September 2026, together with approximate planning ranges for private clinics in Turkey. All amounts are in Turkish lira (TL) and are for information only; the exact fee is set after a clinical and radiological examination.

How Are Dentists' Fees Set?
Dentists' fees are not set by the name of the procedure alone. The same treatment can need different time, materials and clinical preparation on different teeth.
- The position and root structure of the tooth to be treated
- The extent of the decay, fracture or infection
- The filling, crown, implant or aligner material to be used
- The need for X-rays, tomography and intraoral scanning
- Laboratory stages and the number of try-ins planned
- The condition of the bone or gum support
- Whether treatment is done in one session or in stages
One thing we often see at our clinic is patients comparing only the fee for the main procedure. Yet the examination, imaging, temporary work and the final restoration can be separate items.
Examination and Imaging Prices
At an examination, the teeth, gums, bite and existing restorations are assessed. In the TDB 2026 schedule, a dentist examination is listed at 1,650 TL and a specialist dentist examination at 2,035 TL.
The imaging fee varies with the method used. The guide value for a single tooth film is 830 TL, while a panoramic film is 2,040 TL. Tomography covering both jaws can reach 5,940 TL.
What Affects Private Filling Prices?
Private filling prices vary with the number of tooth surfaces covered and the type of restoration chosen. In the TDB schedule, composite fillings are 3,375–5,300 TL. Deep decay may need additional protective procedures.
Before a filling, how close the decay is to the nerve is assessed. If the nerve tissue is affected, a filling alone may not be enough and root canal treatment may be needed.
How Much Is Root Canal Treatment in a Private Clinic?
The answer depends on the number of canals in the tooth. In the TDB 2026 schedule, fees are 4,610–10,350 TL, excluding the final filling. Additional canals and removing an old root filling can affect the fee.
After root canal treatment, the upper part of the tooth may need a filling, a fiber post or a crown. These procedures are assessed separately from the root canal fee, so the total plan should be explained at the examination.
Tooth Extraction and Wisdom Tooth Prices
The TDB 2026 guide value for a simple extraction, including VAT, is 2,475 TL. A complicated extraction is listed at 4,950 TL, and surgery for a tooth impacted in the bone at 11,715 TL.
How far a wisdom tooth has erupted, its root shape and its closeness to the nerve canal all change the plan. A panoramic film or three-dimensional tomography can be used where needed.
Scaling and Gum Treatment Prices
The TDB guide value for scaling one jaw is 3,300 TL. For both jaws, the guide total is 6,600 TL. Deposits below the gum may need curettage or surgical procedures.
The price of gum treatment can be calculated per affected tooth. Curettage of a single tooth has a guide value of 1,870 TL, a free gingival graft 13,145 TL and a connective tissue graft 14,850 TL.
Teeth Whitening Prices
In the TDB 2026 schedule, in-office whitening has a guide value of 11,935 TL per jaw, and the material cost is not included. For both jaws, the total fee varies with the system used and the number of sessions.
Before whitening, decay, cracks, sensitivity and gum problems should be assessed. Fillings and crowns do not change color like natural teeth, so esthetic planning is done separately.
Zirconia, Crown and Veneer Prices
In the TDB 2026 schedule, the guide value for a zirconia crown including VAT is 13,750 TL per tooth. A ceramic veneer crown is listed at 12,100 TL, a full ceramic crown at 21,450 TL and a ceramic laminate veneer at 26,400 TL.
The material, the number of teeth and the need for a substructure affect the crown fee. If the tooth has an old crown, root canal treatment or significant tissue loss, additional procedures may be planned.
Implant Treatment Prices
In the TDB schedule, the surgical placement of a single implant is 22,440 TL, and the implant material is not included in that value. A ceramic crown on an implant is listed at 13,680 TL; the abutment fee may be assessed separately.
In a single tooth implant plan, ask about the implant, the surgery, the healing component, the abutment and the crown together. If a bone graft or sinus lifting is needed, the total fee changes.
Denture Prices
The TDB guide value for a partial acrylic denture in one jaw is 30,690 TL, and for a full acrylic denture 31,900 TL. For metal-reinforced dentures, the amount rises to 38,500–39,600 TL.
The guide value for an implant-supported removable denture is 40,700 TL per jaw. The implants, precision attachments and the necessary surgery may not be included in that amount.
How Much Do Braces Cost in a Private Clinic?
Private braces prices vary with the type of bite problem and the length of treatment. In the TDB 2026 schedule, fixed orthodontic treatment is 40,910–62,675 TL. The guide value for short-term treatment is 23,290 TL.
The professional fee for clear aligner treatment is listed at 53,900–95,700 TL, excluding the cost of the aligners. Records, appliances, retention treatment and lost parts may be assessed separately.
Pediatric Dental Treatment Prices
For children, the guide value for a fissure sealant is 1,445 TL per tooth and for a compomer filling 4,180 TL. Root canal treatment of a baby tooth is 6,765 TL, and space maintainers are 7,480–10,010 TL.
The choice of treatment depends on the child's age, how long the tooth will stay in the mouth and how deep the decay is. Early assessment can reduce the need for more extensive procedures.
Are Dental Treatment Prices in Bursa Different?
The TDB 2026 guide fee schedule is prepared for all provinces and districts. Even so, private clinic fees in Bursa can differ because of the laboratory, materials, the scope of the procedure and the clinical findings.
When comparing prices, do not look only at the total figure. Check in the written treatment plan which materials, check-ups, imaging and temporary work are included in the procedure.
When Should You See a Dentist?
Putting off signs of pain or infection because of cost can lead to a need for more extensive treatment. A dentist's assessment should not be delayed in the following situations:
- Toothache lasting more than two days or disturbing your sleep
- Noticeable swelling in the gum, face or jaw
- Pain that gets worse when you bite
- A tooth that is broken, knocked out or injured
- Recurring gum bleeding and a loose tooth
- A sore in the mouth lasting more than two weeks
Rapidly increasing swelling in the face or neck, difficulty breathing, serious trauma or uncontrolled bleeding needs emergency assessment. In such a case, call 112, the emergency number in Turkey.
Can Home Care Reduce Treatment Costs?
Regular preventive care helps reduce the risk of decay and gum disease. However, methods used at home do not treat decay, infection or a fracture that has already developed.
- Brush your teeth twice a day with a fluoride toothpaste.
- Clean between your teeth every day with a suitable method.
- Reduce how often you consume sugary foods and drinks.
- Avoid tobacco products.
- Keep to the check-up intervals your dentist recommends.
