Dental Holidays in Antalya for Irish Patients
Turkey's health tourism capital, 4 hours 55 minutes from Dublin. For Irish patients the logistics are simple: a direct flight from Dublin, a two-hour time difference, English spoken everywhere a tourist goes and a DentalTrip driver waiting at arrivals.
Antalya is Turkey's leading health tourism destination and DentalTrip's home base. Direct SunExpress flights from Dublin take 4 hours 55 minutes, our partner clinic is 25 minutes from the airport, and most treatments are completed in a 5–7 day stay combining dental care with a Mediterranean holiday.
Antalya sits on Turkey's Mediterranean coast with 300 days of sunshine a year, a UNESCO-listed old town and some of the country's most advanced private clinics. It is where DentalTrip has treated most of our 1,000+ patients since 2011, and where Dr. Metehan Doğan leads our clinical team.

Antalya questions from Irish patients
Prefer Istanbul?
Same plan, same prices, same warranty. Year-round direct flights and a city break between appointments.
Dental Treatment in IstanbulAre there direct flights from Dublin to Antalya?
Yes. SunExpress flies direct from Dublin to Antalya in 4 hours 55 minutes, with up to five flights a week between late March and late October. In winter you connect via Istanbul with Turkish Airlines or Pegasus (about 7.5 hours total).
Why Antalya rather than Istanbul for dental treatment?
Antalya is quieter, warmer, cheaper to stay in and built for health tourism, with the clinic, hotel and beach all within 25 minutes of each other. Istanbul suits patients who want a big-city break or year-round direct flights. We offer both.
Is the Antalya clinic authorised for international patients?
Yes. Our partner clinic holds the Turkish Ministry of Health International Health Tourism Authorisation Certificate, and DentalTrip operates as an authorised intermediary agency.
Can I combine dental treatment with a holiday in Antalya?
That is the idea. Appointments are typically two to three hours a day, leaving you the rest of the day for the beach, old town or a boat trip. Avoid very hot or hard food during the temporary phase, and avoid sun on your face for 48 hours after any surgery.
