Nadin Gemrekoğlu, DDS

Nadin Gemrekoğlu, DDS is a dentist in the Dental & Oral Health unit at Acibadem Bakirkoy Hospital in İstanbul. Her field is Oral & Dental Health, and her subspecialty is periodontology, the area of dentistry that deals with the gums and the tissues that support the teeth. She has been working in the field for more than 11 years, and her practice centers on periodontal care and on treatments related to gum health and gum aesthetics.

Dr. Gemrekoğlu graduated from Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry in 2015. In 2017 she joined Acıbadem Healthcare Services, where she has continued her clinical work in oral and dental health. She consults in Turkish and English.

Clinical focus

A large part of Dr. Gemrekoğlu’s work concerns the diagnosis and treatment of gum disease and related conditions. This includes gum bleeding, gum abscess, gum recession, oral sores, and bad breath. She also carries out dental calculus removal and offers laser gum treatment as part of periodontal care. For patients with dental implants, she treats peri-implantitis, the inflammatory condition that affects the tissues around an implant.

Her practice also covers the aesthetic side of periodontology. This includes gum aesthetics and Botox for a gummy smile, where a larger than usual amount of gum tissue is visible when smiling. Whether the concern is a medical one, an aesthetic one, or both, the suitability of any particular procedure is assessed on an individual basis after a clinical examination, and the options are discussed with the patient before treatment is planned.

How Dr. Gemrekoğlu works with international patients

Dr. Gemrekoğlu sees patients in Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for other languages. Before a visit, the Acibadem international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports and imaging, such as dental X-rays, CT reports, laboratory results, and notes from earlier dental or periodontal treatment, and arranges appointments and the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and current symptoms, a review of existing imaging and previous treatments, a clinical examination of the teeth, gums, and any implants, and a discussion of the possible options. Video consultation is available for international patients, which can be used for an initial review of a case or to discuss findings and next steps before or after travel. In every case, the final recommendation depends on the in-person examination, and the plan is adapted to the individual patient’s oral and gum health.
