Can I Get Zirconia Bridges Without Implants in One Visit to Istanbul?

Thomas M.Oct 8, 2026

I have several damaged and missing teeth and would like to restore my smile with fixed dental restorations. However, I do not want dental implants and can only travel to Istanbul once for treatment.

Would it be possible to replace my missing teeth with zirconia bridges instead of implants and complete my treatment during a single visit?

Yes, a treatment plan using zirconia crowns and bridges without dental implants may be considered, depending on the condition of your remaining teeth and their ability to support the restorations.

Since you prefer not to have implants and can only visit Istanbul once, we can plan a comprehensive restorative treatment aimed at improving both the appearance and function of your smile.

Before placing the final restorations, some teeth will require additional treatment to ensure a stable foundation for the zirconia crowns and bridges.

The proposed treatment plan includes:

  • Extraction of teeth 44 and 46

  • Root canal treatment and post placement for tooth 45

  • Root canal treatment for tooth 33

  • 28 zirconia restorations, including crowns and bridges, covering the regions of teeth 17–27 and 31–37, 41–47

  • A custom night guard to help protect the zirconia restorations from excessive bite forces, clenching, or grinding during sleep

This approach may allow the missing teeth to be replaced with fixed zirconia bridges supported by the remaining natural teeth, without the need for dental implants.

As you can only travel to Istanbul once, we would aim to complete the necessary dental treatments and final restorations during the same visit, provided that the extractions, root canal treatments, and surrounding tissues allow for a predictable result.

However, some healing and gum changes may occur after extractions, which can affect the fit of immediate permanent bridges. The suitability of completing the final restorations in one visit must therefore be carefully assessed.

The final treatment plan will depend on the condition of the supporting teeth, remaining tooth structure, gum health, and bite. A detailed clinical examination and radiographic evaluation will be required to confirm whether zirconia bridges are suitable and whether the entire treatment can be completed during your planned stay in Istanbul.
