What patients report about Dent Medica Bodrum
Patients report recurring problems with substandard dental work and dismissive aftercare. Specific issues include crowns being ordered the wrong size multiple times and falling out repeatedly, with one reviewer noting "the crown was ordered the wrong size three times, and after being fitted, it fell out three or four times." Reviewers also describe fillings cracking within a month of treatment and a "dismissive approach" from staff when attempting to rebook for corrective procedures.
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 Dent Medica Bodrum 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 Dent Medica Bodrum's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"I went to Dr. Ziya on a recommendation. He took an X-ray of my tooth and said that two teeth needed root canal treatment and fillings. When I asked him to do the fillings now, he numbed my tooth and started cleaning the decay. When it hurt a little, he stopped what he was doing, saying, "What's the "

"Unfortunately, I had a bad experience with this clinic. The crown was ordered the wrong size three times, and after being fitted, it fell out three or four times. Furthermore, there was a gap between the two teeth, which was painful when eating (e.g., meat). My complaints were not taken seriously. "
