Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız: A Lifetime Dedicated to Dentistry

Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız’s journey in dentistry starts in the early 1990s at Marmara University, which is among the top dental faculties in the country. From 1991 to 1997, he detailed the science and art of dentistry, starting to exhibit the inquisitiveness and dedication that eventually made him a pioneer in his domain.

First, Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız was so fascinated by the above that he decided to enter the postgraduate course dealing with Prosthetic Dental Treatment and achieved his doctoral degree in 2004. It is dentistry that combines the two toughest and sharpest sides of technology – precise engineering and beautiful natural smiles. As a result, Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız made it a lifelong mission. That was the start of the procedure of turning out to be the thoughtful, down-to-the-detail type of patient that he is admired for today.

From Academic Excellence to Patient Care

Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız completed his Ph.D. After his doctorate, Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız spent over 15 years at Marmara University’s Faculty of Dentistry, first as an assistant professor and later as an associate professor. In addition to teaching new dentists, he was also heavily involved with research in prosthodontics – the branch of dentistry that concentrates on complicated tooth restoration and replacement – during this period.

However, this is the point where his work becomes different from that of others, just in the academic sphere: Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız, along with his research, was also very much devoted to patient care. His academic observations were the daily routine of the dental chair where he always used to practice, thus his patients got the treatments based on the most recent research, and they were at the cutting edge. This rare combination as a scholar and practitioner is one of the reasons he is considered to be one of the best dentists in Istanbul, Turkey.

Expertise That Sets Him Apart

By resorting to prosthetic therapies and using dental implants, Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız solves single tooth loss as well as makes full-mouth restorations that are complicated enough. Meticulous is the work of his – every crown, bridge, or implant is not only foreseen to function but also to be in perfect accord with the patient’s facial aesthetics.

The list of his professional memberships is like a prestigious list of top names in dentistry all around the world:

• Turkish Prosthodontics and Implantology Association
• International Team for Implantology (ITI)
• International College of Prosthodontics
• CAMLOG Implant Systems Members

These relationships indicate that he is not only up to the mark with global standards, but also contributes to them. Through his participation in global conferences, workshops, and symposiums, he not only keeps himself updated but also serves his patients in Istanbul with the latest techniques that are available in the top clinics of Switzerland, the USA, or Germany.

Awards and Recognition

The dental community hardly recognizes it; it is earned by Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız. In 2016, Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız grabbed the Clinical Poster Second Prize from the Turkish Orthodontics Association — a token of technical excellence along with the pioneering ability of the recipient.

Later in 2023, Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız got the second position for Best Oral Presentation at the Turkish Prosthodontics and Implantology Association Congress. This is a barometer not only for being a master of practice but also for being a driving force of dentistry in Turkey and the neighboring countries.

Why International Patients Choose Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız

Without a doubt, Istanbul has cemented its spot as the dental tourism capital of the world, and patients coming from Europe, the Middle East, and North America are queuing up here to be treated as well as in their countries or even better, but with significantly lower expenses.

Among those patients, Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız is one of the most sought-after reasons in that he can give what is few: a first-rate academic credentials, more than 30 years of practical dentistry, and real care for the patient. He doesn’t merely “do dentistry” ― he fabricates the smiles which appear natural, work well, and last for years.

The Role of Lema Dental Clinic in World-Class Care

Before the renovation, the Lema Dental Clinic mostly retained the characteristic qualities of a dentist working in a dental office. However, the space now is bright, modern, with a design that makes patients feel comfortable from the moment they get to see it. One can safely say that it is the tech that makes it stand out from others on a national and international scale:

• Digital 3D Imaging for ultra-accurate diagnosis
• CAD/CAM systems for the fabrication of dental restorations during the same visit
• The use of laser technology for the execution of less invasive procedures

This, anyway, is the environment, so Prof. Dr. Coşkun Yıldız can carry out his deeds-of-art, supported by his assistant(s) who, being technically savvy, enhance the engineer-artist personality of the doctor. The clinic’s philosophy of putting patients at the center of care means that every treatment program is individualized, each angst is helped, and every result is experienced not only in teeth but also in smiles.
