What patients report about Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi
Patients at this clinic report a deeply flawed appointment system that is "absolutely terrible" and "almost impossible" to use, with reviewers describing it as "locked" and requiring "a one in a million chance" to book. Additionally, one reviewer states that a dental crown came off and, after being reattached, was "hanging loosely," with staff dismissing the issue by saying "it would settle over time" when it did not. Another reviewer warns against orthodontic procedures, noting that appointments were given infrequently and they "left empty-handed" each time.
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 Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi 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 Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Diş Hekimliği Fakültesi's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"Update. I had my second appointment 6 months later, but now they lock the system every Thursday at 3 PM. You can't get an appointment. It's such a matter of luck, a one in a million chance.

"If you have orthodontic procedures, don't even go near them. I started taking my son there in 2023, appointments were given every two or three months, but every time we came, we left empty-handed; nothing has been done to this day. We wasted 3 years for nothing. Even when I asked what kind of treatm"

"I tried for about a month. Unfortunately, the appointment system is terrible. I kept trusting it, hoping maybe one would be available today, and a month passed. The system was always locked, somehow. Once you get the initial appointment, you can't get dental treatment. Whose dental school is this? N"
