What patients report about M. Arda Yalıç
Patients at this clinic report two specific recurring problems. Firstly, reviewers describe experiencing **severe pain and physical wear on the teeth after treatment**. Secondly, there is a clear issue with **unexpected additional fees**, with one reviewer stating they were demanded an extra 2400 TL at the end of the procedure despite having "discussed the fee beforehand".
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 M. Arda Yalıç 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 M. Arda Yalıç's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.
