✦ Our Clinic

Meltem is one of Muratpasa's residential neighbourhoods — and, since it is often confused, it belongs to Muratpasa rather than Konyaalti.

This page covers the most common reason young adults come to us: wisdom teeth. They usually erupt between about 17 and 25, and because the modern jaw is smaller they often lack room, so they erupt partly, tilt or stay impacted.

A common misconception is that every wisdom tooth must come out. It is not true: the decision needs a reason and cannot be made without a radiograph.

Should a Wisdom Tooth Be Removed or Monitored?

Both extremes are wrong — removing them all, or leaving them all. The decision depends on position and consequence.

Reasons for removal

Recurrent inflammation and gum swelling
Causing decay or root resorption in the neighbouring molar
Decay in the tooth that cannot be cleaned
A cyst or other pathology around it
Persistent trauma to the cheek or gum
As required by an orthodontic plan

When monitoring is appropriate

Fully impacted teeth with no contact, pathology or symptoms can be monitored. But bone densifies with age, roots complete and healing slows — so waiting where there is an indication usually makes the procedure harder.

Nerve proximity in the lower jaw

Lower wisdom tooth roots can lie close to the nerve canal. Where the panoramic view raises that suspicion, a CT scan locates it precisely and the approach is planned accordingly. Sectioning the tooth serves the same purpose — a sign of good planning rather than difficulty.

Getting Here, Booking and Emergencies from Meltem

Route, booking and emergency arrangements for patients from Meltem.

Getting here from Meltem

Meltem lies in the Muratpaşa district of Antalya; Muratpaşa is one of the central districts, about 2 kilometres from the clinic. We also see patients from neighbouring areas that share the route from Meltem, such as Güvenlik, Kışla, Meydankavağı, Tahılpazarı. You can ask for the location on WhatsApp when travelling from Meltem.

Appointments for Meltem

At this distance, splitting treatment into visits is no problem for patients from Meltem, and attending reviews is easy too. As with patients from Muratpasa generally, appointments for families from Meltem can be scheduled consecutively.

Emergencies from Meltem

Setting out from Meltem at night is quick; come without delay in an emergency, and calling as you leave means preparation is done in advance. For patients coming from Dental Clinic in Meltem, the clinic is open 24/7 and in an emergency the order is set by severity rather than arrival time. For spreading facial swelling, difficulty swallowing or breathing, or toothache with fever, go to the nearest emergency department.

Speeding Recovery After Oral Surgery

The first 72 hours after surgery largely determine how recovery will go. What is done and not done in that period directly affects the degree of swelling and discomfort.

The course of swelling

Swelling peaks on the second and third day and then subsides. That increase is not deterioration but a normal part of healing, and knowing it in advance reduces anxiety. Cold applied to the outside of the cheek at intervals in the first 24 hours limits it; from the third day warmth helps disperse the accumulated fluid. Reversing that order does harm rather than good.

What not to do in the first 24 hours

These disturb the clot and delay healing:

Rinsing and spitting
Drinking through a straw — the suction pulls the clot out
Smoking; the single strongest adverse factor
A hot shower, heavy exercise and alcohol
Probing the site with the tongue or a finger

Eating and hygiene

Eat soft, warm food for the first days; hot food increases bleeding and hard food stresses the wound. Maintaining protein and fluid intake supports healing. Do not stop brushing — just avoid the surgical site; keeping the rest of the mouth clean lowers the risk of infection. From the second day, gentle rinsing with warm salt water is advised.

Frequently Asked Questions 16

When can I return to work?

The next day after a simple extraction; one to two days' rest is sensible after surgical extraction or implant placement. Heavy physical work and sport should wait three to five days, since a rise in blood pressure can trigger bleeding. These periods vary with the person and the extent of the procedure.

When should I take the painkiller?

Taking the first dose before the anaesthetic wears off keeps ahead of the pain; taking it after the pain starts is less effective. Follow the intervals on the prescription. If you take blood thinners, do not choose a painkiller on your own.

Do the sutures dissolve?

It depends on the material. Dissolving sutures disappear on their own in 7 to 14 days; non-dissolving ones are removed at review. You are told which was used. If a suture loosens or comes out early, report it, though it usually causes no problem.

Which signs should prompt a call?

Pain increasing after the third day, bleeding that will not stop, a fever above 38 degrees, difficulty swallowing, inability to open the mouth and spreading swelling. These fall outside the expected course. Do not hesitate to call even at night; early intervention is always easier.

Which district is Meltem in?

Meltem lies within Muratpaşa district, although it is frequently taken to be part of Konyaaltı because of where it sits. Our clinic is also in Muratpaşa, so it is within the same district boundary and the journey is short.

I have no symptoms — should I still have it out?

Not necessarily — a fully impacted tooth causing no damage can be monitored. But where there is an indication, waiting makes the procedure harder.

How do I reach the clinic from here?

Our clinic is in Muratpasa and is reached from Meltem (Muratpaşa) by city transport; call for directions or use the map on our contact page.

Can I come without an appointment?

In an emergency, yes — you are seen without an appointment for pain, swelling, bleeding, a broken tooth or trauma, and the order is set by how serious the problem is rather than by arrival time. For planned treatment, calling ahead means the dentist, the chair and the time your procedure needs are reserved for you, so you are not kept waiting.

Are you open at night and at weekends?

Yes. The clinic has no closing time: it is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and that includes night hours, Saturdays and Sundays, and public holidays. There is no rota to check and no need to ask which day we are on duty. The telephone line is open at the same hours, so you can describe your situation before setting out.

I am looking for a dentist in Meltem — where should I come?

Our clinic is on Sair Adem Dede Street in Muratpasa and serves the Meltem area, open 24/7. Call ahead for planned treatment; walk in for an emergency.

How should I plan my appointment coming from Meltem?

Tell us how many procedures you need and how much time you have. For patients from Meltem we combine as much as possible into one visit.

Is there a dental clinic open evenings and weekends near Meltem?

Our clinic has no closing time — evenings, nights, weekends and public holidays included. If you work shifts you can set the appointment around your own schedule.

Can our family be treated on the same day from Meltem?

Yes. Tell us how many are coming and what each needs; appointments are scheduled consecutively so the household is seen in one visit.

Which dental problems are most common in the Meltem area?

The difference between areas is not the type of problem but when people come. Decay, gum disease and missing teeth are the commonest everywhere.

Can I come at night from Meltem in an emergency?

Yes, the clinic is open at night as well. Calling as you set out helps in two ways: you receive first-aid guidance on the telephone, and the radiograph and surgery are made ready while you travel, so you are not kept waiting when you arrive. Do not wait until morning if there is swelling spreading across the face, difficulty swallowing or a fever — those signs need to be seen straight away.

Does the information on this page apply across Muratpaşa?

The clinical information is the same everywhere; only travel and scheduling differ. You can find your own area's page in our area guide.
