What patients report about Dentalp
Patients at Dentalp report that fillings fail shortly after treatment, with one reviewer noting that a filling "cracked" just a few months after being placed. Another reviewer described a filling being done "so badly" that it caused further issues. Additionally, reviewers cite poor customer service, including a one-hour wait for an appointment and a receptionist who reportedly said, "You could have waited a little longer."
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 Dentalp 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 Dentalp's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"Last year, I went for cleaning and fillings on a recommendation and was generally satisfied. However, my experience this year was a complete disappointment. Even when I called to schedule my first appointment, I had problems; the receptionist who answered the phone was constantly talking to someone "

"I went to have my wisdom tooth extracted this summer.. Then they told me that there was a cavity in my left back (grinding) tooth and that I would need a filling. They did the filling so badly that my vacation ended and a month later I started having pain!! And they literally kicked the filling into"

"We called and made an appointment about 10 days ago. Despite this, when we arrived 10 days later, the receptionist's demeanor was very unpleasant. Furthermore, she made a statement saying, "Even though we called beforehand, you didn't tell me there were two of you," and when we mentioned we had call"

"I had root canal treatment and fillings done a few months ago. Despite the short time elapsed, the filling cracked. I absolutely do not recommend going there; don't make the mistake of going there. About two years ago, I had root canal treatment and fillings done on a different tooth at another dent"
