What patients report about Deniz Doğan Klinik
Patients report that the clinic fails to take responsibility for mistakes and refuses to offer compensation, leaving patients "in a difficult situation." There are also specific complaints about unnecessary or incorrect treatment, including performing root canal work without a prior X-ray and filling teeth that did not require it. Reviewers also describe unprofessional conduct, such as covering a patient’s eye with a bandage after treatment.
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 Deniz Doğan Klinik 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 Deniz Doğan Klinik's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"I had been to this clinic before, and on my last visit I had root canal treatment, but I was very dissatisfied.

"I went there on the recommendation of someone close to me. Dr. Deniz Doğan took an X-ray of my tooth, which had undergone root canal treatment, and was aching and inflamed, without taking one first.
