A "Hollywood smile" is a full smile makeover — typically 16 to 20 veneers or crowns across both jaws, designed as a set. In Türkiye the full treatment usually takes 5–7 days and costs a fraction of Western European prices, which is why Istanbul and Antalya have become leading destinations for it.
What Does a Hollywood Smile Include?
The term is marketing, not a clinical category, so content varies by clinic. A proper treatment plan specifies: the number of teeth treated, the restoration type (veneers vs crowns), the material (typically zirconium or E-max porcelain), any preparatory work such as gum contouring, and the shade design agreed with you before work begins.
The Process, Day by Day
- Day 1: Examination, X-rays, treatment plan confirmation and digital smile design
- Day 2: Tooth preparation and precise impressions; temporary restorations fitted
- Days 3–5: The clinic's laboratory produces your permanent set; trial fittings check fit, bite and shade
- Days 6–7: Final bonding, bite adjustments and aftercare instructions

These are indicative 2026 ranges compiled from published clinic price lists — not a quote. Material choice, case complexity and clinic positioning move the final figure; insist on an itemised written plan.
Veneers or Crowns — and Does It Matter?
Yes. Veneers preserve more natural tooth and suit teeth that are fundamentally healthy; crowns cover the whole tooth and suit heavily restored or damaged teeth. A clinic that quotes a "Hollywood smile" without examining which teeth need which restoration is skipping the step that matters most.
