Ayşe Nur Gümüş, DDS

Ayşe Nur Gümüş, DDS is a dentist in the Dental & Oral Health unit at Acibadem Atasehir Hospital in İstanbul. Her primary specialty is oral and dental health, and her clinical interests lie in endodontics, restorative dentistry and digital dental applications. She has more than nine years of experience in medicine and sees patients with a range of concerns, from tooth pain and root infections to damaged teeth, bad breath and teeth grinding.

Dr. Gümüş graduated from Hacettepe University Faculty of Dentistry in 2017. She subsequently completed training in Endodontics at Kırıkkale University Faculty of Dentistry in 2022. She has been working with Acıbadem Healthcare Services since 2021, and her current clinical practice is based at the hospital in İstanbul.

Clinical focus

Endodontic care is a central part of her work. Dr. Gümüş assesses tooth root infections and, where indicated, carries out root canal treatment with the aim of preserving the natural tooth. Alongside this, she treats damaged teeth and enamel loss using restorative approaches, including dental fillings and porcelain inlays and onlays. Digital CAD/CAM dentistry is part of her practice and may be used in the planning and production of restorations when it is appropriate for the individual case.

Her practice also covers teeth grinding treatment. Depending on the assessment, options may include night guards for teeth grinding or Botox applications for teeth grinding. Dr. Gümüş also evaluates bad breath and discusses possible contributing dental factors, and she offers teeth whitening for patients who wish to address the color of their teeth. In each case, the choice of treatment follows a clinical examination and a discussion of the available options, their expected course and any limitations.

How Dr. Gümüş works with international patients

Dr. Gümüş consults in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who speak other languages. Before a visit, the international patient team coordinates the collection of prior dental reports and imaging, arranges appointments and organises the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of any existing imaging and previous dental treatments, a clinical examination and a discussion of the options that may be suitable. For international patients, a video consultation is also available, which can be used to review a case and clarify questions before or after travel. Treatment recommendations are made only after the relevant clinical information has been assessed, and patients are given a clear explanation of what each option involves.
