What patients report about AlanyaDent
Based on the reviews, patients report that the clinic has performed unnecessary and damaging work, including cutting down healthy teeth and causing tooth loss, with one reviewer stating the dentist would "Cut Down 4 healthy teeth of mine just to earn extra money." A further recurring issue is the clinic's complete failure to respond to complaints, as one reviewer noted they "haven't received a respo" after asking for a mistake to be corrected. Additionally, reviewers describe a specific orthodontist as "Rude, a scammer" who gives advice that necessitates having "all your teeth redone."
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 AlanyaDent 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 AlanyaDent's guarantee terms in writing, including who pays for corrective work and return travel.

"I'm in a situation where I've lost a healthy tooth due to unprofessional, incomplete, and faulty work. Even worse, when I wrote to them asking them to correct their mistake, I haven't received a response or taken any responsibility to this day. And there's more... I do not recommend them!"

"I went to see her for an examination two years ago, misled by the reviews here. However, I soon realized that almost all the reviews here were baseless.
