Abstract

The term "turkey teeth" refers to the extremely white, exceedingly square, and attractive teeth that millennials and social media users in particular are eager to have. Individuals with "Turkeyteeth" are those who have had dental work performed abroad, primarily in Turkey. The primary factor influencing people's decisions to have this operation is Turkey's significantly lower cost.
