What patients report about Ataman Ağız ve Diş Kliniği
Patients report that the clinic charges what one reviewer describes as an "exorbitant price" for procedures, with one stating the cost for a root canal is "half the minimum wage." Another reviewer alleges the clinic recommends unnecessary, invasive treatments, such as extracting a tooth and applying a veneer for a problem that "could be solved with a small filling." Additionally, a patient reports that a tooth worked on at the clinic "got infected" and subsequently had to be extracted.
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 Ataman Ağız ve Diş Kliniği 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 Ataman Ağız ve Diş Kliniği's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

★1 Emre Böyükkartal —
"They charge half the minimum wage for root canal treatment and fillings; look at the price they charge for a one-hour procedure, and they're not even ashamed to say it, it's an exorbitant price."
Verify on Trustpilot →★1 Alkan Vatansever —
"This is a doctor who, for a problem that could be solved with a small filling, suggests extracting the entire tooth and applying a porcelain veneer to a mouth that doesn't even have a filling, and who, in order to rush the job, advises that you're dead, you're finished, we absolutely have to extract"
