TERMS AND CONDITIONS

We will reimburse repair or restorative costs for treatments obtained at Premium Dental Turkey or any partner clinics. The guarantees do not cover third-party clinics or dentists unless specifically stated before the treatment commences. Premium Dental Turkey is only a facilitator in your dental care process. Therefore, the clinic will not be liable in case of faulty treatments resulting from the following: 

The guarantee will become invalid or reduced under the following conditions: 

When the patient neglects oral hygiene

When the patient does not come for a routine dental check-up as scheduled

When the patient doesn’t descale and polish applicable products at least once a year (invoice needed)

When the patient ignores the dentist’s instructions

When the patient doesn’t follow through with full payment

When subsequent treatment is obtained at non affiliated clinic without prior authorisation by Premium Dental Turkey (except for descale and polish)

If the dental injury or issues are caused as a result of contact sports or similar leisure activities

If the dental issues are the result of smoking

If the products fail because of accidental physical damage such as by dropping dentures on the floor

Any activities or drugs that are known to artificially raise blood pressure

In the event that the same or similar dental issue continues to arise and is therefore considered a recurring or reoccurring problem that may be unrelated to the dentistry itself, we reserve the right to advise you to visit a specialist or a medical professional for further tests that may be directly or indirectly related to dentistry. The responsibility of the costs incurred (including travel expenses, dentist and laboratory bills) will be that of the patient. The avoidance of such advice will automatically void your dental guarantee.

If you have a recurring medical condition that may not be directly related to your dental health affecting your treatment, our dental surgeon may refer you to a medical professional or a specialist for further testing. Our clinic will not cover the cost of this visit. 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. A dental implant may migrate or move naturally in your mouth due to various conditions such as diabetes, osteoporosis, epilepsy, chemotherapy, mental disorders, after-condition excessive X-rays, chemotherapy, or similar conditions not related to how the implant is placed. The guarantee will not cover replacing the implant in these situations. Patients are given the option of choosing tooth colour for crowns, veneers, and similar products. If the patient doesn’t like the colour they have chosen later, Premium Dental Turkey will not be responsible and will not reimburse costs. Premium Dental Turkey will not be liable in case a patient’s teeth suffer trauma during bridge or crown treatment (requiring root canal treatment) as a result of conditions not foreseeable or predictable from x-rays and examinations. The guarantee does not cover damage to dental treatments resulting from not wearing gum shields as instructed. Other unrelated factors such as receding gum tissue due to ageing, disease, weight gain or weight loss, are not covered under the guarantee either. The reimbursement will only cover the dental treatments not other costs associated with travel, such as flight tickets, accommodation, cab fare or train tickets or work related loss as salary cuts etc. If you need to see an independent dentist for remedial treatment, your costs will be reimbursed only following a detailed report that indicates a strong need for independent reconstructive work under the framework of the terms and conditions listed above.
