Questions people ask
How long do veneers last?
Well-made zirconia or porcelain veneers typically last 10–15 years with good care.
Do I need two trips for implants?
Usually yes: one to place the implants and one, 3–6 months later, for the final teeth.
Is the price per tooth?
Your written quote lists each tooth and what’s included, before you book.
What if something needs adjusting later?
Ask about the clinic’s guarantee in your quote; any US dentist can make small adjustments.
Is A-1 the clinic?
No. A-1 is a travel agency in Richardson, Texas. We arrange your trip; accredited hospitals and clinics in Istanbul carry out treatment, and their doctors decide what’s right for you.
