What patients report about Özel Nafi Yılmaz Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği
Reviewers report that the clinic performs unnecessary or aggressive procedures, such as extracting teeth without clear justification. One patient stated that for a "small, visible cavity," the clinic insisted on removing wisdom teeth, while another noted that their mother’s tooth was extracted "without giving any reason." Additionally, there are serious safety concerns, with one review alleging that a root canal was botched and "left an instrument tip inside" the tooth.
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 Özel Nafi Yılmaz Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği 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 Özel Nafi Yılmaz Ağız ve Diş Sağlığı Polikliniği's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"I went there for a small, visible cavity. First, they said the wisdom teeth needed to be extracted, which they did.

"Hello everyone, my mother had an examination with Dr. Abdullah. There was no problem with her tooth, but without giving any reason, he said it would be difficult to clean and they extracted it.
