What patients report about DentaLoft
Patients at DentaLoft report several specific recurring problems. Reviewers describe a pattern of rude and unhelpful staff, with one noting a receptionist who "did everything to make us leave immediately" and another reporting a doctor who "spoke rudely" to a child patient. Additionally, there are serious concerns about clinical outcomes, as one reviewer states that "the crowns fell off" within a year of receiving implants, and another criticises the clinic for charging "500 TL for an examination," which they felt was excessive.
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 DentaLoft 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 DentaLoft's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"We went there for my 7-year-old daughter, but she stopped halfway through because she said it hurt. Two weeks later, when we went to have the rest done, the doctor spoke rudely to her, as a child would naturally be scared, and stopped halfway through, telling us to go to another doctor. How can some"

"The worst service you can get: They cancel your appointment, which you booked a week in advance, and offer you another appointment a week later, despite your toothache. If they're going to tell me this, why am I making plans by booking an appointment a week in advance? Then you're left with swelling"

"I was very dissatisfied with the receptionist when we entered. I had gone for an appointment, but she was completely unhelpful and did everything to make us leave immediately. Therefore, I do not recommend this place."

"We had dental implants done at Dentaloft last year, and before the year was even over, the crowns fell off. When we had them checked elsewhere, they were astonished at how the crowns were. Now they are demanding extra money to correct the mistake, even though they gave us a two-year guarantee when t"
