Get a preliminary cost estimate

What a preliminary estimate is — and isn't

There's a meaningful difference between an estimate and a diagnosis, and we want to be precise about it before you submit anything. A preliminary cost estimate is a case-specific figure based on the information you provide: the treatment you're considering, whether you already have imaging, what a previous dentist may have told you, and the general condition you describe. It is not a diagnosis, it is not a final treatment plan, and it is not a clinical judgment rendered sight-unseen. The clinical assessment, diagnosis and treatment plan are made by the treating, licensed dental professionals at Taki Dent in Antalya after they have reviewed proper records — and, in most cases, after a CBCT scan. My Dentist Brooklyn Consulting LLC coordinates that process from Brooklyn; our Brooklyn office provides consulting and coordination, not dentistry, and we do not diagnose conditions or perform procedures ourselves.

That distinction is why the form asks whether you already have a CBCT scan or dental X-rays. A CBCT — a three-dimensional cone-beam scan of your jaw — gives the clinical team the bone detail they need to plan implant work accurately. If you provide a CBCT scan, Taki Dent gives you a fixed, written final price BEFORE you travel — and it is guaranteed not to change through the end of your treatment. You know the full price in advance. Without a CBCT, the figure is a close preliminary estimate, and a CBCT confirms the final guaranteed price. In practical terms: if you can supply a recent CBCT, you can know your full, fixed price before you ever book a flight; if you can't yet, the preliminary estimate gives you a realistic range to weigh, and the CBCT locks it in later. Neither path commits you to anything.

Why we don't collect your X-rays through this form

You'll notice there is no file-upload field on this page, and that's deliberate. Dental imaging is sensitive health information, and a standard web form that routes messages by email and instant messaging is not an appropriate or controlled channel for it. Sending X-rays or a CBCT through an uncontrolled channel creates avoidable privacy risk, so we simply don't do it here. Instead, once you submit this request and we've reviewed it, we'll arrange a secure, purpose-appropriate way to share any scans or X-rays with the clinic. Until we've set that up, please don't email or message your imaging to anyone — hold on to it, and we'll walk you through the secure handoff.

The rest of the information on this form — your name, contact details, state, the treatment you're interested in, your timeline and any diagnosis you've been given — is processed with your consent to prepare an estimate and, again with your consent, shared with our partner clinic in Antalya. Because Taki Dent is in Turkey, that sharing is a cross-border transfer, which is exactly why one of the consent checkboxes is specifically about it. How we collect, use, store and transfer your information is set out in full in our privacy policy, and you can withdraw consent or ask us to delete your information at any time.

What we can and can't help with

We're upfront about the boundaries of this service because too many dental-tourism sites blur them. My Dentist Brooklyn can review the information you share, explain how US dental costs compare with published starting prices at our partner clinic, help you understand what a proper written treatment plan and quote should include, coordinate your records, and organize the travel logistics once you've decided to proceed. We cannot diagnose a dental condition from a form submission, we cannot guarantee a specific price before the clinic has actually assessed your case, and we cannot promise a particular outcome from any procedure. Clinical decisions and diagnoses are always made by a licensed dentist who has assessed your records — whether that's a provider here in New York or the clinical team at Taki Dent — and individual outcomes vary from patient to patient.

If your situation sounds like a dental emergency — severe pain, swelling, bleeding that won't stop, or trauma to a tooth — please don't wait on a reply here. See our emergency dental information, contact a local provider directly, or call 911 for anything serious. This form is for planning ahead, not urgent care. And if, after we've reviewed your case, it turns out your treatment is straightforward and best handled locally, we'll tell you that honestly — there's no obligation to travel, and no pressure to book.
