What patients report about Diş Bahçesi
Patients at Diş Bahçesi report severe and persistent pain following treatment, with one reviewer stating their mother’s “pain and money she's spent are unbelievable” after porcelain work. Another recurring issue is chaotic administration, including a failure to record appointments and a breach of privacy where a clerk repeated a patient’s national identity number “loud enough for other customers waiting to hear.” Reviewers also highlight a lack of continuity of care, noting that “every time we went, there was a different doctor.”
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 Diş Bahçesi 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 Diş Bahçesi's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

She fixed it, but she couldn't put weight on the tooth, and the pain didn't go away. She extracted the tooth for three weeks, and finally, she couldn't take it anymore and "

"We had orthodontic treatment for my daughter. Every time we went, there was a different doctor. The staff was constantly changing.

"This clinic is appalling. My mother had porcelain teeth done here in 2019 by a so-called professor, and since then, the pain and money she's spent are unbelievable. She used her previous porcelain teeth for 20 years, but the teeth she had done here ended up in the hospital a year later. To make matt"

"On September 12, 2024, I went to this center for an examination. I waited for exactly 20 minutes in front of the counter, hoping they would open a record and direct me to someone. The woman at the counter neither looked at us, nor asked anything, nor showed any interest. In short, it was as if she w"

"When I went for my check-up, the clerk asked for my Turkish national identity number while registering me. I whispered my number, but she repeated it loud enough for other customers waiting to hear. I canceled and left. She was untrained and unaware of GDPR regulations."
