Citydent Istanbul is a well-established Taksim clinic operating since 2006 with ISO 9001:2015 certification, Ministry of Health Health Tourism Authorization, 13 named dentists with verifiable qualifications, and an on-site CAD/CAM laboratory using Straumann and Nobel Biocare implants. Reviews from international patients across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia are largely genuine and detailed, though none are verified in the SmileJet database and one serious negative involves an abandoned root canal. A third-party 2025 report citing hygiene and surgical complications warrants attention for patients planning complex procedures.

Because my old teeth were in very bad condition, I found this clinic through internet research, and they applied multilayer zirconium crowns to 27 of my teeth. First of all, all the staff are wonderful people. I would like to thank my patient coordinator, Ms. Makbule, for always prioritizing patient satisfaction and for her humane approach. I would also like to thank Mr. Hüseyin and Mr. Emrah…

for their root canals, fillings, and fiber post applications. Now, let's talk about Ms. Benan and her assistant Ms. Zeynep, who, during a period when I was a real pain in the neck and a candidate for the most difficult and problematic patient of the year, patiently and kindly made my prostheses. They are true professionals, paragons of patience, who never turned down any of my requests despite my psychological distress, always smiling, and above all, understanding and good people. May their paths be bright. I also owe a debt of gratitude to the owner, Dr. Sinan, and the entire team. And let's not forget the laboratory staff :)

Before coming to CITY DENT, I went to a dental clinic in ANTALYA and they told me that I had 2 mm of bone remaining in my upper jaw sinuses and that they could solve it with a subperiosteal implant. To be sure, when I returned to England, I had a CT scan of my upper jaw done at a highly equipped dental hospital here. The dental surgeon said that they do not perform subperiosteal implant procedures…

and that they solve these types of problems with sinus lifting surgery. Based on my Google research, I decided to go to CITY DENT, which has very high ratings and reviews. Our doctor, Sinan Buday, successfully completed the operation that the dental clinic in Antalya said was not possible, and placed 9 Straumann BLX implants in my mouth. Now I can chew even the hardest things comfortably, just like my own natural teeth. I would like to thank our doctor, Sinan Buday, and the prosthodontist, Asil Bey, who made my zirconium teeth, for giving me teeth I couldn't even imagine. Note; My request to Professor Sinan Buday is that he pay attention to patient coordination and find a solution to the problem of waiting for hours. Believe me, waiting for several hours on an empty stomach is infuriating.

Reply from the clinic

Thank you so much for your valuable feedback and kind words. It is our greatest pleasure to see you satisfied with your treatment process and recovering your health. On behalf of Professor Sinan Buday and his team, we will convey your kind thanks. We are also taking your constructive suggestion regarding the waiting time into account and are making the necessary arrangements to further improve our patient coordination. We wish you many happy days ahead, and hope you continue to smile with joy.

I received excellent guidance from patient advisor Ayda beforehand. In August, I flew to Istanbul and had my first encounter with Citydent Istanbul Dental Clinic. Dt. Berkay Sakin guided me incredibly well through the implant placement process. Instead of four (as my dentist in the Netherlands recommended), three proved sufficient. A 3D X-ray was taken to accurately assess the exact location of…

the nerves and bone. The professionalism and precision with which Berkan Sakin works are commendable. It was 100% better than expected, and the pain was also very manageable. I didn't even need a painkiller. In early January 2026, I traveled to Citydent for the second time, where Berkay, after an amused welcome, exposed the implants. What a wonderful specialist!! The next day, the treatment was continued by Betül ARKAN. Her professionalism also radiated from her, and I immediately felt comfortable! She completed the treatment by replacing the (5!) lost teeth with crowns on the implants. And what a relief that the lab that produces the crowns is located one floor up and is part of the clinic! It's very convenient for making quick adjustments (like color changes). You can just wait for them. In between, I had a bleaching treatment, so I returned to the Netherlands with "as good as new" teeth. All praise to this clinic and its wonderful staff! And including the two trips, it was only a third of what it would have cost in the Netherlands.

For both health and aesthetic reasons, Citydent should be your first choice without hesitation. I was unhappy with my teeth and after extensive research, I visited many clinics to get zirconium veneers, but ultimately I chose Citydent hospital and, of course, Dr. Asil, who prioritized both my health and aesthetics. Everything progressed meticulously and in the healthiest way possible throughout my…

treatment. I realized I made the right decision trusting Dr. Asil's aesthetic sense and experience after my treatment was complete; I am very happy with my new smile. Dr. Asil is an experienced and visionary physician; his aesthetic sense is excellent, and he meticulously managed the process down to the smallest detail. I would also like to thank his assistant, Ms. Döndü, for her friendly demeanor and attention; she was very caring and had a wonderful energy, making me feel very comfortable. Ms. Makbule, who supported me with all my problems during the treatment, was also very attentive and friendly. Other clinics didn't even consider my health during the initial consultation; they were just focused on getting it over with. But Professor Asil and the Citydent family care about your health, so you can choose them with complete peace of mind.

One of my biggest phobias in life is dentists. But Mr. Boran and Ms. Dolunay took such good care of me and made me feel so comfortable from the very first moment that I want to thank them for that even before the success of the procedure. I came for a cavity and filling treatment and I was very pleased. It's a clean, meticulous, and well-organized clinic. I didn't have to wait at all; every…

For any dental problems, simply contact Ms. Makbule at City Dent Hospital. She professionally organizes all stages, providing you with the best support and guidance. Based on our own experience, we can absolutely emphasize this. Another thing I appreciate is that nobody at this hospital tries to sell you anything; they genuinely recommend what is medically appropriate for you. This is a common…

fear for those living abroad: if something is recommended to them, a question mark always arises – whose benefit is it more for, the buyer or the seller? At City Dent, this feeling never arises.

Dr. Samer was truly very attentive. I had difficult impacted teeth and needed surgery. I visited many doctors, and finally found the right one. He's a truly conscientious doctor who does his job very well. His assistant, Diana, was also very helpful. Makbule was also very helpful regarding pricing and planning. It's a very good clinic in every way; I recommend it to everyone.
