What patients report about Mevsim Dental Clinic
Patients report that implants have failed even after extensive preparatory work, with one reviewer stating their "implant failed even after bone augmentation, grafting and 8 months waiting period." Another recurring issue is poor communication and a lack of follow-through, as one reviewer noted that after a root canal failed, "they said they'd get back to you, but they didn't." Additionally, reviewers mention that prices quoted initially differ from those charged on arrival, with one describing "a different price, then the price increased."
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 Mevsim Dental Clinic 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 Mevsim Dental Clinic's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"The staff were very disrespectful. We wanted to have hair removal and fillers done, but when we first asked, they gave us a different price, then the price increased. Also, they weren't helpful at all, and their behavior was unpleasant. I won't be going there again."

"A few years ago, I had a root canal. The treated tooth needed another root canal. They said they'd get back to you, but they didn't. Can this happen in just a few years? Was the treatment done incorrectly? They took our money and didn't stand behind their work."
