What patients report about Yavuz Özcan Dental Implant and Aesthetic Clinic
Based on the reviews, patients report that the clinic performs unnecessary and hasty procedures, such as extracting wisdom teeth “without even taking an X-ray.” Reviewers also describe the doctor as rude and dismissive, with one noting they were not allowed to ask questions beforehand. Additionally, dental work fails quickly, with one patient stating that after being told their Emax teeth would last ten years, “less than a month later, my teeth started breaking.”
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 Yavuz Özcan Dental Implant and Aesthetic 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 Yavuz Özcan Dental Implant and Aesthetic Clinic's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"A terrible doctor is canceling my appointment to suit their own needs and saying something like, "You have to stick to the time I gave you."

"I had all my teeth fixed with Emax. They told me I could use them for at least 10 years. Less than a month later, my teeth started breaking, and two teeth came out. I have to go to the dentist constantly. A few more months passed, and another two teeth came out. I go to the dentist every two weeks. "
