What patients report about Arven Dent
Patients at Arven Dent report that treatments fail rapidly, with one reviewer stating fillers and implants had "negative results in less than two months." Another reviewer describes a procedure that was quoted to take three months but remained unfinished after eight, and a third reports that the clinic used interns to complete work after the original doctor went on holiday, calling the result "a complete disaster." Additionally, reviewers cite unethical conduct, such as a doctor allowing his fiancée to remain in the room during an examination without intervention.
We quote the actual 1–2★ reviews below so you can verify each one yourself, and weigh them against a clinic with a clean record.
Who treats you — and who is accountable
The biggest divide in Turkish dentistry is whether a named specialist treats you start-to-finish, or your case is assigned within a rotating team. At Taki Dent, Prof. Dr. Sadık Taki — a specialist prosthodontist with 17 peer-reviewed publications and Turkish Dental Association membership — personally assesses, treats and follows up every case and stays reachable on WhatsApp, so the person who consents your plan is the one accountable for it. Ask Arven Dent for the name of the individual dentist who will perform your surgery, and verify their register entry.
Guarantee & aftercare
Taki Dent's guarantee is written and tiered — a lifetime manufacturer warranty on implant components and a 5–10 year guarantee on crowns and veneers — and for a significant issue it covers a free return trip for corrective treatment, activated by the treating doctor himself. Every patient also receives a serialised implant passport. Get Arven Dent's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"I strongly do not recommend them. They only performed a zygomatic implant for extra money. They said it would be finished in 3 months when they started the procedure, but it's been 8 months and it's still not finished.

"During my examination at the clinic, the doctor's fiancée entered the room arbitrarily and remained there throughout the examination, and the doctor did not intervene.

"In August 2021, we agreed on 26 dental veneers. A doctor named Barış prepared the teeth and then went on vacation. The remaining work was done by interns there.
