What patients report about UBAdent
Reviewers report that UBAdent performed the wrong procedure, leaving one patient in pain for two years after failing to extract the required tooth, which they called "truly shameful." Others describe rushed, superficial work, such as a dental cleaning that took just 15 minutes and was "the fastest cleaning I've ever had," alongside complaints about high cash-only demands and an unreasonable 250 TL consultation fee.
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 UBAdent 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 UBAdent's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

★1 Keskin nisancì —
"I am completely dissatisfied. They didn't extract the tooth that needed to be extracted, and I've been in pain for two years now. What you did is truly shameful."

"Based on positive reviews, I requested an orthodontic consultation appointment. However, charging 250 TL for a consultation that's free everywhere else seems unreasonable to me. After all, we're researching an expensive procedure, and when we finally decide, we'll be paying many times that amount."
Verify on Trustpilot →★2 Kubilay Mete BASTIRMACI —
"I went there for a dental cleaning. The whole process took 15 minutes. It was the fastest cleaning I've ever had; the doctor was incredibly quick. Of course, he did a superficial job. During the procedure, he kept talking about implants, bridges, and other treatments I might need. Finally, I told hi"

"I'd say it's more like a business in the automotive industry than a dental clinic, and they demand 80% of their prices in cash."
