Dental Guarantee

YOU SHOULD ALWAYS ASK YOUR DENTIST ABOUT THE GUARANTEE..

DENTAL CENTRE TURKEY LTD. DENTAL GUARANTEE AGREEMENT

Dental Centre Turkey Ltd. is a facilitator for dental services provided by independent local clinics in Turkey.
This guarantee is provided by the dental clinic and is conditional upon you entering into a contract with the local clinic whereby dental services are provided to you.

Many patients choosing to travel abroad for dental treatment often overlook the dental guarantee. Equally, many clinics do not show the terms and conditions of the guarantee they are offering. Globally, it is not a legal requirement for a dental clinic to provide any form of guarantee. As this is so it is something that should be asked before booking your treatment, as many dental clinics do not offer any form of guarantee. A simple note stating a treatment comes with a 5-year guarantee explains little or nothing in terms of what is actually covered. Dental Centre Turkey prides itself on ensuring patients are provided by the local clinic, with a transparent dental guarantee showing the full details of the guarantee terms and conditions, which are written in a language that is easy to understand. Below you will find one of the most extensive guarantees available for patients seeking treatment at home or abroad. The team of Dentists, Surgeons and Dental Technicians make every effort to ensure your treatment is carried out to the highest possible standard. In addition to the standard dental treatment guarantee, in the event of a defect of dentistry, a contribution towards the cost of your return flights up to the single value of €150* will be offered by the local clinic. In case of a failure of the laboratory works the local clinic will cover all necessary dental and laboratory costs to rectify the issue upon your return. In cases of small adjustments, the local clinic will make a single contribution to you having corrective treatment in your home country. Please be aware that the number of patients needing to return for corrective treatment is very low; however, that said, you can be sure that should you experience any issues you are offered a legitimate guarantee.

The majority of the dental treatments provided by the local clinics are covered by a guarantee. In the event of any defect of dentistry provided by the local clinics in connection with Dental Centre Turkey, included under the terms of the guarantee, necessary remedial works will be provided by the original provider of the dental treatment and at no charge. The guarantee is neither transferable within the group of local clinics or outside it. Charges for any dental treatment whether remedial or otherwise incurred by dental clinics not connected with the local clinics or Dental Centre Turkey will not be reimbursed unless specifically agreed in writing by an authorised representative of Dental Centre Turkey and before such treatment is sought or effected, such authority is not available retrospectively. Dental Centre Turkey is the facilitator of your dental treatment and as such is not to be held liable in any issue arising from the dental treatment. In the event of a dispute Dental Centre Turkey will guide you through the appropriate procedure in order to give effect to the guarantee, subject to its terms and conditions.

Please be aware that the provision of remedial treatment, including any replacement of the original treatment, does not extend the dental guarantee beyond its initial term.

Dental Treatment instigated by another Dentist or Clinic

If you have started treatment in another dental clinic and we have been requested to complete the treatment please be aware that as we are not responsible for all of the treatment carried out, should an issue arise there could be a dispute as to which clinic is responsible. We are therefore unable to provide any form of guarantee in this instance.
