Why Choose Iran for Dental Treatment?
Iran is one of the top medical tourism destinations for specialized dental care. Dental specialists in Iran use the latest equipment and high-quality materials, delivering services with impressive success rates. The cost of dental treatments in Iran is significantly lower than in European, North American, and even neighboring countries, without any compromise on the quality of care.
What Specialized Dental Services Are Offered?
Our partner medical centers provide a wide range of advanced dental treatments for oral health and function, the most important of which include:
🦷 Dental Implants
Dental implants are one of the best solutions for replacing missing teeth. Using titanium screws placed in the jawbone, implants look completely natural and offer long-term durability.
⚕️ Root Canal Treatment
Root canal treatment is used to save infected or damaged teeth. By thoroughly cleaning the damaged pulp and disinfecting the root canal, the tooth is preserved and the spread of infection is prevented.
🔪 Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Oral surgery includes wisdom tooth extraction, treatment of jaw cysts, correction of jaw abnormalities, and gum surgery. These procedures are performed under local anesthesia or general sedation with minimal discomfort.
➕ Other Specialized Services
In addition to the above, services such as crowns and bridges, ceramic veneers, orthodontics, teeth whitening, and full dentures are also available to international patients at our partner centers.
Treatment Duration and Recovery Period
Most dental procedures take between 1 to 4 hours. Return to normal daily activities is usually possible after 2 to 3 weeks. For implants, full osseointegration and load-bearing capacity may take 12 to 18 months. Your accompanying dental team will design a personalized treatment plan tailored to your oral condition.
Cost of Dental Treatment in Iran
The cost of dental treatments in Iran typically ranges from $800 to $3,000, depending on the type and number of services required. Compared to Western countries and even regional neighbors, Iran is one of the most affordable yet high-quality destinations for dental tourism.
