Hollywood smile Turkey price: the building blocks

A Hollywood smile is a description of a result, a bright, even and symmetrical smile, rather than a single treatment. Its price is assembled from the lines below, chosen tooth by tooth.

Treatment	Price range (TRY)	Approx. GBP	Approx. EUR	Approx. USD
E.max porcelain veneer / laminate (per tooth)	12,000–18,000	£180–£270	€220–€320	$240–$360
E.max all-ceramic crown (per tooth)	8,000–12,000	£120–£180	€145–€220	$160–$240
Zirconia crown (per tooth)	5,000–7,000	£75–£105	€90–€125	$100–$140
Teeth whitening (per treatment)	4,000–10,000	£60–£150	€70–€180	$80–$200
Scale and polish (full mouth)	1,500–2,500	£25–£40	€25–€45	$30–$50

Please note: these ranges come from our clinic price list and are shared to help you plan a budget. They are information, not a quote or an offer. The exact cost can only be set after an examination, any X-rays or scans needed, and a written treatment plan. Our list is in Turkish lira; amounts in pounds, euros and dollars are approximate, converted at the European Central Bank rate of 23 October 2026, and change with the exchange rate.

Composite bonding, gum contouring and gum treatment are sometimes part of a smile design too. They are not on our printed list, so their cost is set in the written plan after assessment. The design process itself is described on our smile makeover page.

How the number of teeth sets the price

The single biggest factor in a Hollywood smile price is how many teeth are treated. Each veneer adds TRY 12,000–18,000 on our list, so the difference between a six-tooth and a ten-tooth design is four veneers, or roughly TRY 48,000–72,000 (about £720–£1,080).

The right number depends on how much of your teeth show, not on a set figure. In a relaxed full smile, look at how far back the visible teeth go. Narrow smiles may show six upper teeth; broad smiles can show ten, including the premolars. If the back teeth that show are left untreated and are a very different colour, the smile looks unfinished, which is why the count is set from photos and a trial smile rather than chosen in advance.

Lower teeth are a separate decision. They show less when talking and smiling for most people, and whitening them to match the new upper shade is often enough.

Hollywood smile cost examples

The examples below add listed ranges together for common designs. They are arithmetic only and not a quote for your teeth.

Treatment	Price range (TRY)	Approx. GBP	Approx. EUR	Approx. USD
Example: 6 upper veneers + whitening	76,000–118,000	£1,140–£1,770	€1,390–€2,100	$1,520–$2,360
Example: 8 upper veneers + whitening	100,000–154,000	£1,500–£2,310	€1,830–€2,740	$2,000–$3,080
Example: 10 upper veneers + whitening	124,000–190,000	£1,860–£2,850	€2,270–€3,380	$2,480–$3,800
Example: 8 veneers + 2 E.max crowns on root-filled teeth + whitening	116,000–178,000	£1,740–£2,670	€2,120–€3,180	$2,320–$3,560
Example: 16 veneers (10 upper, 6 lower)	192,000–288,000	£2,880–£4,320	€3,520–€5,120	$3,840–$5,760
Example: 20 veneers (10 upper, 10 lower)	240,000–360,000	£3,600–£5,400	€4,400–€6,400	$4,800–$7,200

When every visible tooth in both jaws is veneered, as in the last two lines, whitening is often unnecessary because few natural teeth remain on show. For per-tooth detail, see veneers Turkey cost.

Where whitening fits into the cost

Whitening is usually a small part of a Hollywood smile budget, TRY 4,000–10,000 on our list (about £60–£150), but it has a large effect on the result. Porcelain does not change colour once it is made, and whitening does not lighten it. So if you want your untreated teeth lighter, they are whitened first and the veneers are then shaded to match the new colour.

Whitening can also reduce the total. If your main concern is colour and your teeth are otherwise well shaped, whitening alone or whitening with a few veneers on the teeth that are chipped or uneven may give the look you want for a fraction of a full design. Whitening is not suitable for everyone: very sensitive teeth, untreated decay or gum problems need attention first, and some deep stains respond poorly. See teeth whitening Istanbul cost.

Veneers or crowns in a Hollywood smile?

For healthy teeth, a Hollywood smile is normally built with veneers, which cover only the front surface. Crowns are used for the individual teeth in the design that are broken, heavily filled or root-filled, where a veneer would not have enough sound tooth to bond to.

On our list a zirconia crown costs less per tooth than a veneer. A design that uses crowns on every tooth can therefore show a lower total than one using veneers, while removing far more natural tooth from every side. That is the pattern behind many of the problems described as “Turkey teeth”, and it is not a trade worth making for teeth that are healthy. If a plan proposes crowns, it should say which teeth and why. Our page on Turkey teeth cost works through this comparison with numbers.

Treatment that may be needed first

A new smile has to sit on healthy teeth and gums, so some plans include treatment before the cosmetic work. The most common items, each a separate line in the written plan, are:

Scale and polish, so shade and gum line can be judged accurately.
Fillings for decay found on X-ray, TRY 1,750–2,500 per tooth on our list.
Root canal treatment for a tooth with an inflamed or dead nerve, TRY 4,000–7,000 per tooth, usually followed by a crown.
Gum treatment if the gums are inflamed; this is priced after assessment.
Straightening with clear aligners when teeth are crowded, so that veneers need less preparation. See clear aligners Turkey cost.

Sending a recent X-ray with your photos helps the dentist include these in the preliminary plan, so the final total is less likely to change on arrival.

Time in Istanbul and the trial smile

Most Hollywood smile treatment takes about 5–10 days in Istanbul. A veneer-only design is often at the shorter end; designs that include root canals, crowns or gum treatment take longer. Your preliminary plan states the expected number of days.

Before any tooth is prepared, a trial smile in temporary material is placed over your teeth so you can see the proposed shape and length in your own face and agree changes. This stage does not add a separate line on our list, but it does need time in the schedule, and we advise against trips too short to include it. Smile design at our clinic is carried out by Dt. Kadri Söylemez, with crown work by Dt. Osman Cemal Binan where needed.

Who a Hollywood smile is not suitable for

Veneers and crowns are not the right answer for everyone, whatever the budget. We will advise against or delay a Hollywood smile if you have untreated gum disease or decay, heavy grinding that is not controlled, very little enamel left, or a bite that would put excessive force on thin porcelain. Teenagers whose teeth and gums are still developing are generally better served by orthodontics and whitening.

Possible problems after treatment include sensitivity, a veneer chipping or coming loose, gum irritation at the edges, and a shade that looks too bright for your complexion. Choosing a very white shade is a personal decision, but it is worth seeing it in the trial smile and in daylight first. Porcelain veneers commonly last ten to fifteen years or more with good care, and will eventually need replacing, so a Hollywood smile is a long-term commitment as well as a cost.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a Hollywood smile cost in Turkey?

It depends on the number of teeth and the treatment for each one. On our clinic price list a porcelain veneer is TRY 12,000–18,000 per tooth (about £180–£270). As an example, eight upper veneers plus whitening of the other teeth come to roughly TRY 100,000–154,000 (about £1,500–£2,310). The exact cost is set in a written plan after examination.

How many teeth are in a Hollywood smile?

There is no set number. Many designs treat six to ten upper teeth, the ones that show in a full smile, and whiten the rest to match. Some people also need lower veneers, which takes the total to sixteen or twenty teeth. The dentist sets the count from your photos, the examination and a trial smile, and explains the reason for each tooth.

Is whitening included in the Hollywood smile price?

Whitening is a separate line on our list, TRY 4,000–10,000 (about £60–£150), and is added only when it is needed to lighten the teeth that are not being veneered. It is done before the veneers are made, because porcelain cannot be whitened afterwards. If almost every visible tooth is veneered, whitening may not be needed at all.

How much is a 20-tooth Hollywood smile in Turkey?

As an arithmetic example from our ranges, twenty porcelain veneers come to about TRY 240,000–360,000, which is roughly £3,600–£5,400, €4,400–€6,400 or $4,800–$7,200. Any fillings, root canals or gum treatment needed first would be added as separate lines. Many people do not need twenty veneers, and the plan should explain why each tooth is included.

Why do Hollywood smile prices in Turkey vary so much?

The number of teeth, the material, and whether healthy teeth are given veneers or full crowns all change the total. Crown-based designs can show a lower figure but remove much more natural tooth. Compare written plans tooth by tooth, checking the treatment and material for each, rather than comparing headline prices for a smile.

Can I get a Hollywood smile without veneers?

Sometimes. If your teeth are well shaped and the main concern is colour, whitening alone may be enough. Small chips or gaps can sometimes be corrected with bonding, which is priced in the written plan after assessment, and crowded teeth can be straightened with aligners first. Your dentist will discuss these options after reviewing your photos and examining your teeth.

How long do I need in Istanbul for a Hollywood smile?

Usually about 5–10 days. A design using only veneers is often at the shorter end, while plans that include root canals, crowns or gum treatment take longer. The stay includes an examination, a trial smile, preparation, laboratory work, a try-in and final fitting. Your preliminary plan states the expected number of days before you book.

This page gives general information and is not a substitute for an examination. Whether a treatment is suitable for you, and how long it takes, is decided after your dentist has examined you and reviewed your X-rays.
