At Sifa Care, your smile journey does not end when your treatment in Turkey is complete. Following the right aftercare is key to smooth healing and long-lasting results. Our expert team is here to guide you every step of the way, with clear instructions and UK-based support to keep your new smile healthy and protected.
If you notice any unusual symptoms after your treatment, it’s important to contact your clinic right away. Seek help immediately if you experience persistent bleeding beyond 24 hours, severe swelling or pain that does not improve after three days, a high fever or chills, an unpleasant taste or discharge that may indicate infection, or if a crown, veneer, or implant becomes loose.
Once you return home, we recommend continuing your care by visiting a UK dentist for regular check-ups. Be sure to inform your dentist about any treatment you received abroad and keep your Sifa Care treatment report safe for future reference.
