About Root Canal Treatment in Alanya, Turkey

Root canal treatment is indicated when the soft tissue in the centre of a tooth becomes infected.

Removing the soft tissue and filling the cavity prevents further infection, ultimately saving the tooth.

The soft tissue is comprised of nerves, blood vessels and connective tissue that basically becomes redundant once the tooth has emerged from the gum; as a result, this can all be safely removed without affecting the function or appearance of the tooth following infection.

As well as the chance to save some cash in Turkey, you can look forward to golden-sanded beaches, superb hospitality and a unique nightlife that'll take your mind off the stress of visiting the dentist ( modern root canal procedures are not painful , contrary to misconceptions).

How Much Does a Root Canal Cost in Alanya?

The price of a root canal in Alanya is just a fraction of the cost at home —saving you hundreds of pounds or euros while you enjoy your holiday in the sun.

Alanya and Turkey Travel Information

Alanya, a historic resort town on Turkey’s southern Mediterranean coastline, has witnessed a large influx of British, Dutch and Scandinavian holiday-makers, many of whom prefer this quieter area over the more crowded seaside cities and resorts here on the Turkish Riviera, like Antalya and Izmir.

To reach Alanya, you will likely travel through Antalya first, as this is where the region’s main international airport is located, approximately 100km west of Alanya.

The town is known for its pristine beach, luxurious (but surprisingly affordable) accommodation options, a wealth of Western-style pubs and restaurants, watersport activities, traditional Turkish baths and a few interesting day-trip spots for those interested in the history of the area.
