May 3, 20246 min read•Vellorian Medical Team
A Hollywood Smile in Istanbul usually combines veneers or crowns to create a bright, balanced smile. Zirconia crowns are stronger and cover the full tooth, while veneers are more conservative. This guide compares both options for dental tourism in Turkey.
Key differences - Veneers: thin shells, minimal tooth reduction - Zirconia crowns: full coverage, more reduction - Best for: veneers for shape and color, crowns for damaged teeth
Hollywood Smile with veneers Veneers are ideal when your teeth are healthy but need cosmetic improvements. They can correct small gaps, discoloration, and uneven edges with minimal prep.
Zirconia crowns Zirconia is strong, natural looking, and ideal when teeth have large fillings, cracks, or root canal history. It also works well for full mouth cases.
Timeline and price ranges in Turkey - Veneers: 5-7 days, USD 250-450 per tooth - Zirconia crowns: 3-5 days, USD 220-400 per tooth
How to choose If you want minimal prep and a cosmetic focus, veneers are a great fit. If you need strength and full coverage, zirconia crowns are usually better.
