Before & After Gallery

Real Patients, Real Results

Every photo on this page belongs to a real patient who consented to sharing their result. No stock images. No digital manipulation of tooth shade or shape beyond standard brightness and contrast correction.

A before and after photo is only meaningful if it was taken under consistent conditions, without editing that misrepresents the clinical result, and from a patient who has given explicit consent.

Every case in this gallery was photographed at the same clinic, under the same lighting protocol, by the same clinical team — before treatment began and after it was completed. The standard brightness and contrast adjustments applied in editing are the same for every photo. Nothing has been done to alter the shade, shape, spacing or texture of teeth.

What You’re Looking At — and What to Look For

Before and after photography in dentistry has a credibility problem. Photos can be taken under different lighting conditions, with different camera angles, after whitening in the “after” shot that was not part of the treatment, or with post-processing that makes results appear more dramatic than they are.

Here is exactly what we do — and what we do not do — with every photo in this gallery.

What We Do

Consistent lighting: Every photo is taken under the same calibrated dental photography lighting rig. The “before” and “after” shots for a single patient use identical settings. The warm-toned appearance of some “before” photos compared to their “after” counterparts reflects the actual change in tooth shade — not a lighting change.

Consistent angle and framing: Photos are taken from the same distance, with the same retractor positioning, so tooth size and proportion appear identically in both shots. A tooth cannot appear longer in the “after” because the camera was closer.

Brightness and contrast only: Post-processing is limited to matching overall brightness and contrast between photos taken on different days. No localised editing is applied to specific teeth. No Photoshop or equivalent tools are used on tooth shade, shape or spacing.

Clinical photography, not portrait photography: Most photos in this gallery are close-up intraoral shots — retractors holding the lips back, teeth fully visible. For All-on-4 and Hollywood Smile cases where the patient consented, full-face smiling photos accompany the intraoral shots, because the full-face context shows the result more completely.

What We Do Not Do

  • We do not whiten teeth in the “after” photos using post-processing
  • We do not change the camera angle to make teeth appear more symmetrical
  • We do not use stock photography or composite cases
  • We do not remove cases where the result was good but not exceptional
  • We do not show “after” photos taken immediately post-procedure, before swelling has resolved — all “after” photos are taken once healing is complete

What to Look For When Evaluating Photos

  • Shade consistency within the treated arch — do crowns, veneers and natural teeth read as the same colour?
  • Margin fit — do you see any dark lines at the gum margin of crowns or veneers? (Absence of dark lines indicates metal-free ceramic restorations)
  • Symmetry — are treated teeth proportional to each other and to untreated teeth?
  • Gum health — does the gum tissue look healthy and well-adapted to the restorations?
  • Natural surface texture — do the restorations have surface detail, or do they look uniformly smooth and plastic?

These are the same criteria a cosmetic dentist uses when assessing another dentist’s work.

All-on-4 Implants — Before & After

35+ cases · Full arch restorations · Provisional and final bridge results

Note: All-on-4 cases are shown in two stages — provisional bridge (worn during osseointegration) and final zirconia bridge (fitted at second visit). Both are included for each case where available.

Case: GS-2025-042 — All-on-4, Upper Arch

Patient: Margaret C., 63, Wolverhampton, UK Treatment: All-on-4 upper arch + final zirconia bridge Implant brand: Nobel Biocare NobelActive Duration: First visit 7 days · Second visit 5 days Saved vs. UK quote: £13,500

[Before & after photos — coming soon]

Clinical notes: Patient had worn upper complete denture for eight years. Residual bone volume: upper arch — sufficient for All-on-4 with standard posterior angling. No sinus lift required. Implants placed under IV sedation. Provisional bridge loaded same day — primary stability confirmed at placement. Final bridge: full-arch zirconia with 12 units. Second visit at five months.

“The before photos are hard to look at now — not because they’re unflattering but because I remember exactly how I felt in them.”

Case: GS-2025-058 — All-on-4, Both Arches

Patient: Derek P., 66, Sunderland, UK Treatment: All-on-4 upper and lower arch Implant brand: Nobel Biocare (upper) · Straumann BLX (lower) Duration: First visit 8 days · Second visit 6 days Saved vs. UK quote: £27,000

[Before & after photos — coming soon]

Clinical notes: Full mouth rehabilitation. Upper arch: All-on-4 with NobelActive implants — posterior sinus proximity managed with angling. Lower arch: All-on-6 considered but bone density assessment (Day 2 CT scan) confirmed All-on-4 viable. Both arches placed in single surgical session under general anaesthesia.


Porcelain Veneers & Hollywood Smile — Before & After

45+ cases · 6, 8, 10 and 12-veneer sets · Hollywood Smile combinations

Case: GS-2025-063 — 10 E.Max Veneers

Patient: Emma J., 34, Coventry, UK Treatment: 10 Ivoclar e.max porcelain veneers + teeth whitening (lower arch) Material: Ivoclar e.max, layered, shade B1 Duration: 6 days Saved vs. UK quote: £6,200

[Before & after photos — coming soon]

Clinical notes: Tetracycline staining — intrinsic discolouration not addressable by whitening. 10 upper veneers; lower arch whitened professionally before veneer impressions taken to ensure shade consistency. Digital Smile Design completed Day 2 — patient requested shade adjustment from initial proposal. Layered e.max fabrication, 3-day laboratory turnaround.

“My dentist in London had told me whitening would never shift this staining and she was right. Veneers were the only answer. I wish I’d known that ten years earlier.”

Case: GS-2025-071 — 8 E.Max Veneers

Patient: Sophie A., 29, Reading, UK Treatment: 8 Ivoclar e.max veneers Material: Ivoclar e.max, layered, shade B1 Duration: 5 days Saved vs. UK quote: £5,500

[Before & after photos — coming soon]

Clinical notes: Diastema (central incisor gap): 2mm. Lateral incisor chip: enamel fracture from sports injury seven years prior. Digital Smile Design used to confirm gap closure proportions — careful width-to-height ratio management to avoid ‘fake’ appearance. Minimal preparation technique used — enamel removal 0.5mm.

Case: GS-2026-006 — Hollywood Smile (12 Teeth)

Patient: Daniel K., 39, Milton Keynes, UK Treatment: Hollywood Smile — 8 e.max veneers + 4 zirconia crowns + gum contouring Duration: 7 days Saved vs. UK quote: £7,800

[Before & after photos — coming soon]

Clinical notes: Mixed treatment plan: anterior veneers (e.max) + premolar crowns (zirconia, previous restorations replaced) + laser gum contouring (asymmetry of 1.5mm corrected). All restorations shade-matched to unified B1 target. Gum contouring performed before veneer preparation — gum tissue healing confirmed before crown preparations began.


Zirconia Crowns & E-Max Crowns — Before & After

20+ cases · PFM replacements, post-root canal crowns, multi-crown restorations

Case: GS-2025-049 — 4 E.Max Crowns (Replacing PFM)

[Before & after photos — coming soon]

Clinical notes: Existing PFM crowns: 12–15 years old, all showing progressive dark metal margin exposure as gum tissue had receded naturally. No new structural issues — teeth were healthy beneath existing crowns. Preparation maintained original margins. E.max selected over zirconia for aesthetic priority on visible anterior teeth.

Case: GS-2026-002 — 2 Zirconia Crowns (Post-Root Canal)

Patient: Alan R., 50, Preston, UK Treatment: 2 zirconia crowns — post-root canal, teeth previously left uncovered for four years Duration: 4 days Saved vs. UK quote: £1,400

[Before & after photos — coming soon]

Clinical notes: Root canals performed in UK four years prior. Patient had not proceeded with crowning due to UK cost. Both teeth showed significant intrinsic darkening. Post and core buildup required on both teeth before crown preparation — tooth structure assessment on Day 2 confirmed adequate residual structure. Zirconia chosen for posterior position and strength priority.


How We Handle Your Privacy and Our Photography Standards

Every patient whose photos appear in this gallery has given explicit written consent. Consent is:

  • Obtained after treatment is complete — never as a condition of booking or treatment
  • Specific about how photos will be used (website, social media, printed material — each listed separately)
  • Revocable at any time — if a patient asks us to remove their photos, we do so within 5 business days, no questions asked

Patients who have not given consent are not photographed for gallery purposes. Patients who give partial consent (for example, clinical photos but not full-face photos) appear in the gallery only in the form they consented to.

What We Can and Cannot Show

We can show:

  • Close-up intraoral photos (retracted view of teeth)
  • Full-face smiling photos where patients have specifically consented
  • Side-profile and smile-line photos where specifically consented

We do not show:

  • Full-face photos where patients have not specifically consented to full-face
  • Any photos that could identify a patient by context (workplace, location, distinctive features) without explicit consent
  • Photos of patients who are under 18 years of age

Photography Protocol

All clinical before/after photography at our partner clinics follows this protocol:

  • Camera: professional DSLR with 100mm macro lens, calibrated white balance
  • Lighting: twin-flash dental photography system, consistent positioning for all shots
  • Retractors: Standard buccal retractors, consistent placement
  • Post-processing: Adobe Lightroom, brightness/contrast correction only — no localised adjustments
  • File management: Before and after shots stored in paired folders, linked to patient file

This protocol has been in place since 2025. Earlier cases in the gallery predate this standardised protocol — where lighting conditions vary, this is noted in the case caption.

Removing Your Photos

If you are a current or former patient and you would like your photos removed from this gallery, contact us at [email protected] or via WhatsApp and we will action your request within 5 business days.


Frequently Asked Questions

Are these photos real — how do I know they haven’t been edited?

The photos are real. Our photography protocol (detailed in the section above) uses consistent lighting, angle and framing for every case, and post-processing is limited to brightness/contrast correction applied identically to both “before” and “after” shots. We cannot prove this to you beyond describing it — which is why we also recommend reading patient reviews on independent platforms (Google, Trustpilot) where the same patients describe their results in writing. The two forms of evidence together are more meaningful than either alone.

Why don’t all cases show full-face photos?

Full-face photos require specific consent from the patient — separate from consent for clinical intraoral photos. Some patients consent to clinical photography only. We show full-face photos only where explicit consent has been given for full-face use. The absence of full-face photos in a case does not reflect a problem with the result — it reflects a patient’s privacy preference.

Can I see photos of cases similar to my own situation?

Yes — contact your coordinator and describe your specific concern (gap, staining, missing teeth, bone loss, etc.) and we will pull cases from our archive that most closely match your situation. Not all cases in our archive are on this public gallery — for privacy reasons, some patients have consented to their photos being used for in-consultation assessment only, not for public display.

How recent are the photos?

Most photos in this gallery are from the last two years. Older cases are included where the result is particularly relevant to a specific treatment or concern. Each case caption includes the treatment date.

I’ve seen photos on other Turkey dental sites that look too good to be true. How is yours different?

A legitimate concern. The markers of manipulated dental photography: inconsistent lighting (the “after” is dramatically brighter), inconsistent angle (teeth appear closer in the “after”), shade that changes independently of restoration placement, and gum tissue that looks unrealistically healthy post-procedure. Look for these in every gallery you browse — including ours. Our photography protocol is designed to make manipulation impossible within normal clinical workflow, not merely to claim we don’t do it.

Can I see a case for my specific treatment before booking?

Yes. If you send us your photos during the free assessment process, our clinical coordinator can share specific cases from our full archive that match your situation — including cases not publicly displayed. This is a normal part of the assessment process.
