Gum Treatment Prices 2026: Curettage, Flap Surgery and Graft Fees

Gum disease starts with bleeding and swelling; if untreated it can lead to loss of the bone that holds the teeth and to loose teeth. Treatment ranges from simple cleaning to surgery depending on how advanced the disease is. Our clinic's dentist is a periodontology (gum disease) specialist. Below are the periodontology items in the Turkish Dental Association (TDB) 2026 fee tariff.

Non-Surgical Gum Treatment

In the early stages, scaling and subgingival curettage, cleaning the root surface below the gums (1,870.00 TL per tooth), are often enough (including VAT). A specialist examination is 2,035.00 TL in the tariff.

Surgical Gum Treatments

• Flap surgery: In deep pockets, the gum is lifted so the root surfaces can be cleaned under direct vision; 5,225.00 TL per tooth (subgingival curettage included).
• Gingivectomy and gingivoplasty: Reshaping overgrown or irregular gums; 3,245.00 TL and 3,135.00 TL per tooth.
• Biomaterials and membranes: Regenerative procedures in areas with bone loss; material fees are excluded.

Gum Recession and Grafting

With gum recession, the exposed root surface can be covered with a graft or thin gums can be thickened. A free gingival graft is 13,145.00 TL per tooth and a subepithelial connective tissue graft 14,850.00 TL. Where a lip or tongue tie pulls on the gums, a frenectomy (7,700.00 TL) may be done.

Disease Around Implants

The gum and bone around an implant can also become inflamed (peri-implantitis). Non-surgical treatment (2,965.00 TL) is used in early stages and surgical treatment (6,875.00 TL) in advanced cases.

What Affects the Cost?

• How advanced the disease is and the number of teeth needing treatment (most items are per tooth)
• Whether non-surgical treatment is sufficient
• Materials such as grafts, biomaterials and membranes
• Regular check-up and maintenance visits after treatment

Frequently Asked Questions

Why are gum treatment fees per tooth?

Gum disease can affect each tooth to a different degree. That is why procedures such as curettage, flap surgery and grafting are defined per tooth in the tariff.

Does every case of gum disease need surgery?

No. In most patients, cleaning, curettage and proper home care bring the disease under control. Surgery is considered for deep pockets and bone loss.

Does a graft fully restore receded gums?

The result depends on the degree of recession and the bone support between the teeth. The expected outcome is assessed at the examination.
