What patients report about SR Dental
Patients at SR Dental report significant issues with inexperienced or changing staff, with one reviewer noting "newly graduated dentists were working there" who failed to complete a wisdom tooth extraction. Another recurring problem is a decline in quality and care after the initial visit, with a reviewer stating they "cannot say the same for the root canal treatment" as a previous filling, and another describing the service as "not the same quality as before." Reviewers also highlight procedures being abandoned mid-treatment, such as a tooth extraction left unfinished with only antibiotics prescribed.
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 SR Dental 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 SR Dental's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"Absolutely awful, a disgrace, and utterly negligent. I went to have my wisdom tooth extracted. Of course, the initial visit was very nice, until the extraction was actually done.

"We are receiving orthodontic treatment from Bergama Sr Dental Polyclinic. We had everything done there, from A to Z. When we were first customers, they were very friendly.

"It's not the same quality as before, and unfortunately, it doesn't have a permanent staff either. If you want the ability to squirt water between your teeth, it's worth a visit.

How to compare Taki Dent and SR Dental fairly
SR Dental is a verified dental clinic in Bergama, 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.
