What patients report about Dentasey
Patients report significant issues with non-dental cosmetic procedures, including a masseter muscle injection that left one reviewer with a “sunken” face and a feeling like “a squirrel when I eat.” There are also consistent complaints about poor front-of-house communication, with one reviewer describing the consultant’s approach as “unhelpful” and “negative,” while another criticises being given a price only after an examination rather than over the phone.
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 Dentasey 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 Dentasey's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"Yesterday, I went to this clinic with my brother for a dental cleaning!! After the examination, they quoted the price. This part is incredibly ridiculous.

"We were very dissatisfied with the approach of the consultant at the entrance. Throughout the process, they were not only unhelpful but also met with a negative reaction. They were neither solution-oriented nor attentive, either over the phone or in person."

How to compare Taki Dent and Dentasey fairly
Dentasey is a verified dental clinic in Buca, İzmir, listed in our directory from public Google Business data. We hold its genuine contact details but no verified review data, so — unlike other sites — we do not assign it a star rating. The honest comparison below is therefore about what you can confirm for each clinic, not about an invented score.
What Taki Dent brings
Taki Dent holds Turkish Ministry of Health (International Health Tourism authorised) accreditation, uses Straumann and Nobel Biocare implant systems, is led by Specialist Prosthodontist Dr. Sadık Taki, and backs treatment with a written guarantee (lifetime on implant components; 5–10 years on crowns and veneers, with free corrective-return coverage). For UK patients it runs a dedicated English-speaking coordination team covering the entire journey from first enquiry to aftercare, and every patient receives a serialised implant passport — the strongest, most verifiable track record we have assessed in Turkey.
What to verify with Dentasey
