General dentistry in Antalya
General dentistry keeps your own teeth and gums healthy and replaces the teeth that cannot be saved. It covers gum treatment, root canal treatment, extractions, bridges and dentures. Many patients need one of these before cosmetic or implant work, and your written plan shows which treatment, how many visits it takes and the price.

| Your problem | Usual treatment | Days in Antalya |
|---|---|---|
| Bleeding, swollen or receding gums, loose teeth | Gum treatment | Depends on the stage; stated in your plan |
| Toothache, swelling or an abscess | Root canal treatment | 1–2 visits, often within a 5–7 day crown trip |
| A tooth that cannot be saved, or a wisdom tooth causing problems | Tooth extraction | 1 visit plus a check-up |
| One to three missing teeth in a row | Dental bridge | 5–7 days |
| Many or all teeth missing in a jaw | Dentures | About 7–10 days; overdentures on implants need 2 trips |
These are the usual routes, not the only ones. A missing tooth can also be replaced with a dental implant, and a whole jaw with All-on-4. Your dentist tells you which options fit your teeth, including the more conservative one where it exists.
Why gums and roots are checked before cosmetic or implant work
Veneers, crowns and implants are only as stable as the gums, roots and bone underneath them. A crown placed on a tooth with an untreated root infection, or an implant placed in a mouth with active gum disease, is at higher risk of failing. That is why every cosmetic or implant plan starts with a check of:
- The gums — bleeding, pocket depth and bone level around each tooth. Gum disease is treated first.
- The roots — on an X-ray or 3D scan we look for infection at the root tips and for old root fillings that are leaking.
- Teeth that cannot be kept — they are removed and their replacement is planned together with the rest of the work.
Uzm. Dt. Mehmet Ercan is a specialist in periodontology, the branch of dentistry that treats the gums and the bone that hold the teeth. If something needs treatment first and it is visible on your photos or X-ray, it is written into your plan with the extra visits before you travel. If it only shows at the examination in Antalya, we explain it and you decide before anything is done.
