What patients report about Dent35 (Bornova (Branch 4))
Patients report specific problems including incomplete procedures, such as extractions where "stitches aren't required" but were not performed, and poorly fitted crowns that left a visible "gap in the middle of my tooth." Reviewers also describe excessively long treatment periods, with one noting they had to "change cities four times with my tiny baby" for a procedure that should have taken one day, alongside poor communication regarding costs and scheduling.
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 Dent35 (Bornova (Branch 4)) 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 Dent35 (Bornova (Branch 4))'s guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"I regret ever going there. I would have been better off just staying with my decayed tooth. For a procedure that could have been done in one day, I had to change cities four times with my tiny baby.

"I had a zirconium crown placed on my right tooth. After it was fitted, I told them there was a gap in the middle of my tooth, and they said they would fill it. When I asked about the cost, they said it wouldn't be expensive. However, when I was leaving, they demanded payment for the filling. The doc"
