Brand story
Founded by Polen Akkılıç
LEMA opened in Istanbul in 2021 with one conviction: that dentistry at this level should feel calm. Not rushed, not sold — planned.
What began as a single clinic is now one of the largest dental practices in Europe, and it is still run the same way. Every case is designed digitally, produced in our own laboratory and approved by you before it is fixed in place.
We are here until you are.
Our vision
Precision, without the cold.
Technology should disappear into the experience. We invest in scanners, mills and microscopes so that what you notice is the quiet of the room and the person explaining your plan.

The process
5 steps to perfection
01/ 05
Initial consultation & guidance
A 3D scan, a panoramic X-ray and an honest conversation about what is possible.
02/ 05
Restorative preparation
Anything unhealthy is treated first. We do not build on a compromised foundation.
03/ 05
Aesthetic design
Your smile is designed digitally and trialled in your mouth before production begins.
04/ 05
Implant expertise
Guided placement where implants are part of the plan, with healing time respected.
05/ 05
Final approval & perfection
Nothing is cemented until you look in the mirror and agree.

Equipment & laboratory
We chose our tools once, properly — and kept the laboratory in the building.

Our laboratory
Milling, layering and glazing happen a floor away from the chair. That is why a fitting adjustment takes hours instead of weeks.
