“Being one of the fastest-growing

he Republic of Turkey still lags
significantly behind in terms of
oral health. In advance of the
FDI 2013 Annual World Dental Congress in Istanbul, Worldental Daily
had the opportunity to speak with
Profs. Saadet Gökalp and Bahar Güçiz
Doğan from Hacettepe University in
Ankara, who co-authored the country’s last national oral health survey,
about the state of oral health of the
Turkish people and what needs to be
done to improve the situation in the
long run.
AD
FDI 2014, New Delhi, India
Greater Noida
Annual World Dental Congress
11 - 14 September 2014
Worldental Daily: According to
the last national survey conducted
between 2004 and 2005, the oral
health status of most Turks seems
to be in a devastating state. What
were the most important findings
from the report?
Profs. Saadet Gökalp and Bahar
Güçiz Doğan: The survey, which used
World Health Organization (WHO) criteria, found that individual oral health
care was inadequate and the need
for treatment was high throughout all
index age groups. Very few people visited a dentist regularly and only sought
treatment when they had a problem.
According to Turkish Statistical
Institute figures, children between
0 and 6 years of age seem to suffer
significantly less from oral health
problems than children between
7 and 14 years of age do. Why is there
such a rapid progression of oral
disease at an early age?
The methodology of the Turkish
Statistical Institute was different from
ours. Its data was gathered in May
and related to health problems experienced in the last six months by interviewing the mothers or caretakers
of the child. However, there was no
oral examination, so the dental health
status of the subject herself or himself
was not assessed.
In addition, comparing children
between the ages of 0 to 6 years and
7 to 14 years is not informative enough.
In fact, WHO recommends assessing
and following the dental health status
of children of 5, 12 and 15 years of
age. For this reason, we investigated
patients of these ages in our survey.
And what did you find?
The report showed a high prevalence of dental caries (68.8 per cent)
among 5-year-old children. The decayed, missing and filled teeth (DMFT)
index at age 12 was 1.9, which is lower
than the WHO target for 2000 (DMFT = 3),
but the significant caries index was
4.33 and caries prevalence still high
(61.1 per cent). The mean DMFT score
of 5-, 12- and 15-year-old children
was mainly due to the D component,
while the F component was very low.
The mean DMFT score in the age
groups 35–44 years of age (11.2) and
65–74 years of age (25.8) was mainly
due to the M component.

The Turkish government introduced a national health insurance
system in 2008 in order to provide
children between the ages of 5 and
15 with better access to dental care.
Has the oral health situation improved since then?
Unfortunately, there is still no data
available related to this issue. However, a national oral health survey is
planned to be conducted in 2014 by
the same research group who wrote
the last report. Once the findings of
this survey have been released, I think
comparisons will be able to be drawn.
Edentulism has been shown to be
extremely high among the Turkish
elderly. What are the reasons for this
high tooth loss in this age group?

The prevalence of edentulism in
the 65–74 age group was indeed
very high (48.8 per cent). One reason
might be that access to dental health
services used to be inadequate in
Turkey in both rural and urban areas.
In addition, there is the widespread
belief that the loss of teeth is unavoidable as one grows older. Therefore, tooth extractions are common in
this age group, who simply consider
this treatment method cheaper and
more practical.
AD
Advance Issue
Other significant factors for retaining functional dentition (meaning
21 or more teeth) at this age were
place of residence, health insurance and the number of previous
dental visits. For example, our study
demonstrated that elderly people
with no health insurance also had
a higher incidence of edentulism
(53.2 per cent).
Why do women seem to suffer
significantly more from oral disease
than men do?
I believe this issue is related to
the status of women in Turkey. Gender
discrimination in our country is still
present in almost all aspects of life,
including health.
The dentist–patient ratio in 2011
was 1:3,500, which is below the European average. Does the country need
more dentists to serve its 73.6 million population?
I think for the near future it is more
important to distribute the potential
dental work-force throughout the
country more equally and to train
people better to seek oral health
care services before presenting with
symptoms of oral disease.
I The prevalence of edentulism among elderly Turks is very high.

In addition, dentists should be educated in a more prevention-oriented
manner during their undergraduate
studies. Quality and an ethical work
philosophy should be more important
than quantity.
Every second dentist in Turkey
works in one of the five largest cities,
an area that equals only 1/40,000 of
the country’s total area. What is access
to oral health care services like in the
rest of the country, which is primarily
agrarian?
In most villages, oral health care
facilities simply do not exist. Most villagers therefore have to go to a district
centre in order to attend one of the
few government-run oral health care
centres, which serve as clinics rather
than primary care units. There are very
few private facilities in district centres.
According to an Organisation for
Economic Co-operation and Development report, Turkey currently spends
only 6 per cent of its GDP on health care.
What role does the lack of knowledge regarding the benefits of good oral health
play compared with other factors?
Indeed, the least is spent on oral
health care and most of the money
allocated is spent on treatment rather
than prevention. It would be beneficial
if knowledge about good oral health
behaviour could be spread among the
population. Everyone knows the risks
of poor oral health for general wellbeing, yet most people do not brush
their teeth regularly and correctly.
With growth rates of about 10 per
cent, Turkey is currently one of the
fastest-growing economies in Europe
and worldwide. Do you think that this
will have any impact on the oral health
status of Turks, and what needs to be
done to raise awareness of and spending on oral health care in the future?
Being one of the fastest-growing
economies is not enough. More important for improving oral health and
general health is the equal and fair
distribution of available resources. If
this cannot be provided, very few will
be able to benefit from the effects of
economic development in the long term.
Under the Live.Learn.Laugh. programme, the FDI has conducted a number
of programmes in partnership with the
Turkish Dental Association and corporate partners to raise awareness of good
oral health among Turks in recent years.
What do you think the effect of these
measures has been, and does Turkey
require more of these programmes?
If conducted countrywide, especially in rural districts, these programmes
can have an important effect, but in my
opinion it would be far more effective
to have oral health interventions performed within routine health services
and by responsible personnel.
Thank you very much for the interview.

Dental officers meet at World Military Dental Congress
FDI Section of Defence Forces Dental Services talks forensics and CAD at pre-AWDC event
T
he number of armed conflicts
has remained constant since
the end of the Cold War, according to a study by the Peace
Research Institute Oslo in Norway.
Therefore, a key part of military
dentistry is to plan dental care for
isolated populations nowadays, in
addition to providing oral health
care to those involved in armed
forces and managing their risk of
oral disease.
Around 70 delegates from 25
countries are expected to meet
ahead of the 2013 Annual World
Dental Congress for two one-day
sessions on the latest issues in
military dentistry organised by the
FDI Section of Defence Forces Dental Services (SDFDS) in Istanbul.
According to Col. Andrew Gray, Director of Defence Dental Services,
the event will cover battlefield dentistry, disaster relief and management, as well as forensic dentistry,
including mass disaster victim identification.
In addition, management of dental service delivery, including performance assessment and improvement, readiness, dental management
programmes, oral and maxillofacial
treatment, as well as CAD will be in
focus.
I The SDFDS is welcoming new delegates from countries like Afghanistan this year.

“Military personnel can be operational for various lengths of time
without access to dental care,” Gray
said. “Thus, risk management of
military populations is vital to the
success of a mission. Evacuating a
soldier from a military environment
as a result of a simple toothache is
expensive and in many situations
very dangerous for the patient and
those transporting and assisting.”
For the first time, delegates from
Afghanistan, Kenya, Sri Lanka and
Ukraine are expected to join the
annual event. The meeting will commence with a welcome reception
on 25 August at the Military Museum
in Istanbul. Delegates will also visit
the military facilities of the Turkish
Armed Forces as a traditional part of
the programme.

Dental products market in Turkey
grows exponentially at lower levels
Demand expected to be fuelled by implants and dental tourism
A
t the 2013 FDI Annual World
Dental Congress, manufacturers
from around the globe and
Turkey will come together to compete
as well as to do business with each
other. While the country at the edge of
Europe is considered to be one of the
AD
fastest-growing economies in the world
at the moment, there is little reliable
data about its dental market, especially since the Dental Manufacturers and
Dealers Association of Turkey (DISSIAD)
left the Federation of the European
Dental Industry several years ago.
According to DISSIAD president
and chairman of Öncü Dental Yuksel
Akyol, who spoke to members of the
press about last year’s IDEX in Istanbul, the Turkish dental industry currently exports dental equipment worth
US$50 million. The majority of dental
equipment used in the country is imported and, with a few exceptions,
most foreign manufacturers operate
through local partners. The size of the
overall market, including equipment
and dental consumables, is estimated
to be €150 million, which is significantly lower compared with other
countries in Europe, such as Germany,
which boasts a market worth over €3
billion. With rates of 6 to 7 per cent
per year, however, the Turkish dental
market is currently growing faster than
all major markets on the continent
combined.
Products most in demand are imaging devices, dental lasers and implants. In fact, Turkey has become one
of the fastest-growing markets in
the implant segment, congruent with
strong economic growth that weathered the recession far better than the
US and nearly any region in Europe.
According to a report by Canadian market research provider iData Research
published by Dental Tribune last year,
the Turkish dental implant, final abutment and computer-guided surgery
segment is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 20.4 per
cent from 2008 to 2018.
In order to benefit from low labour
costs and growing demand for tooth
replacements, among other factors,
foreign implant companies, such as
Swiss implant specialist Thommen
Medical, who recently signed a distribution agreement with BioPort in
Istanbul, have begun to establish
domestic subsidiaries or local distribution partners, which are constantly
expanding consumers’ options.
Implants are also developed and
manufactured in the country. Istanbul
company AGS Medikal Ürünleri was
the first to start domestic production
of fixed tooth replacements in 2011.
Meanwhile, other companies, including Dental Implant KA, have followed
in its footsteps and have begun manufacturing their own implant solutions.
According to market experts, they will
be able to compete internationally
in the long run owing to their price
advantage.
Demand for dental equipment will
also be fuelled by an increase in public
health spending, as well as dental
tourism, which will require dentists,
particularly in private practice, to update their equipment and technical
knowledge in the next few years.
According to reports by Turkish newspaper the Hürriyet Daily News, who

“To the city”, through epochs and space
W

streets of Istanbul is a
synaesthetic experience
—it is about absorbing the vibrant
noise of a global metropolis, the
22:00 prayer calls of the muezzin
echoing throughout the city, the
aroma of herbs and spices from
nearby restaurants, the magnificent architecture, the feeling of
summer heat in the streets, the
energy of Taksim Square.

SOUVENIRS
While the Grand Bazaar and the
Egyptian Bazaar, set within impressive architecture, in Eminönü are
reminders of the ancient markets,
you can enjoy modern shopping
in the numerous mega-shopping
centres throughout Istanbul too.
The largest and most architecturally striking malls in Europe,
they offer global and local brands.
“Whatever happens, I can always take a long walk along the
Bosphorus,” sums up recipient of
the Nobel Prize in Literature Orhan
Pamuk in his famous book Istanbul:
Memories and the City. The name
“Istanbul” in the original Greek
means a teleological “to the city”,
and traces multiple historical, political, and cultural paths—an invitation to walk through time and space.
With almost 14 million inhabitants, Istanbul is the largest European metropolis, and the secondlargest city in the world. Founded by
the Greeks under the name of Byzantium and later reinaugurated as Constantinople by the Romans, it looks
back on a history of a thousand years.
In this time, it served as the capital
of four empires, with the Ottomans
ruling longest from 1299 to 1923.
As a transcontinental city, linking
Europe and Asia, the city is a cultural
melting pot. A conglomerate of districts, representing various aspects
of the past and present, Istanbul
combines the historical pillars of
global empires with the vibrancy
of a modern metropolis. Nowhere
else can this be experienced better
than along Istiklal Avenue, the
second-largest pedestrian street in
the world, leading from the Galata
Tower to Taksim Square, the heart
of Istanbul.
Boasting more mosques than
anywhere in the city, most famous
of all the Blue Mosque built by
Sultan Ahmed I as part of a larger
complex, the Sultanahmet quarter
in the south of the European part of
the city represents the Old. Nearby
Hagia Sophia epitomises the multireligious past of the city, evolving
from a Greek Orthodox basilica to
a Roman Catholic cathedral to a
mosque. Nowadays, this testimony
to Byzantine architecture with marble pillars and mosaics is a secularised museum open to visitors.
The large Basilica Cistern offers a
magical underground experience
of light and sound, while Topkapı
Palace invites you to wander about
the premises of the Ottoman Sultan
residence.
In the Beşiktaş district, you can
experience the transition from empire to republic, and obtain a wonderful view of the Bosphorus from
the Dolmabahçe Palace. Churches,
synagogues and mosques, as well
as museums, can be discovered in
a walk through the Balat and Fener
quarters.
“Real museums are places where
Time is transformed into Space,”
states Pamuk in his The Museum
of Innocence. Uniquely, his book
has indeed turned into an actual
museum, located in the Beyoğlu

You can easily reach MetroCity
and the Kanyon mall, which offers
an outdoor shopping experience,
directly from the Levent station
of the Istanbul Metro. Europe’s
second-largest shopping centre is
stanbul Cevahir (M2 line, Şişli).
For family entertainment with the
indoor Turkuazoo Aquarium and
a dinosaur discovery at Jurassic
Land, visit Forum Istanbul (M1 line,

their collections here—so spoil

genuine ones made of cashmere!),

stanbul Modern offers not only
an overview of the contemporary
Turkish art scene in an industrial setting, but also a wonderful

Bosphorus.
For those wishing to escape the
summer heat, the Princes’ Islands
—an archipelago of nine islands
located in the Sea of Marmara—
are inviting for day trips, and can
be conveniently reached by ferry
from Kabataş. No automobile traffic is allowed on the islands, and
its horses and carriages, beautiful
avenues of pines, and wooden architecture create a special, serene
ambiance.
TASTING ISTANBUL
Traditional Turkish cuisine is
based on the Ottoman style of
cooking, with influences from Central and Middle Asia, as well as the
Balkan countries. Istanbul is the
place to enjoy a traditional kebab
or köfte kebab, as well as seafood.
Indulging in light starters or meze
(“taste, flavour, snack, relish”) is
the best way to experience Istanbul
flavours; try beyaz peynir (literally
“white cheese”), acılı ezme (pepper paste), haydari (thick strained
yogurt), cacık (yogurt with cucumber and garlic), pilaki (foods
cooked in a special sauce), dolma
or sarma (rice-stuffed vine leaves
or other vegetables), and köfte
(meatballs).
mint leaves, and yogurt accompanies most meat dishes—the word
“yogurt” is of Turkish origin. Enjoy
karpuz, watermelon, as a dessert
or refreshment in the hot streets.
Meals finish with strong siyah

apple tea.
Turkish cuisine offers surprising uses of herbs and food combinations: salads are made with

Istanbul is the epitome of craftsmanship, especially glassware,
such as teapots, delicate glasses,
and ornate dishes by Paşabahçe.
You can buy simple teacups for
everyday use or lavishly ornamented sets in interior decorating
and glassware stores. Coffee lovers
can accessorise their kitchen with
a cezve, the pot used for making
Turkish coffee. Tea-drinkers will
find the selection of teas—spicy,
black, green, apple—alluring. You
can add a certain hammam flair to
your bathroom at home with highquality soaps; peshtamal, Turkish
towels; and notably the exfoliating
kese sponge.
