Overall score
Dentakay Antalya is the Antalya branch of an 8-clinic Turkish chain founded in 2009, offering full-arch implants, crowns, and cosmetic work with integrated hotel and transfer packages. The logistics infrastructure is strong for dental tourists, but documented complaints about cost increases after arrival, scheduling failures, and at least one allegation of unnecessary treatment recommendations warrant caution for high-value cases. The 0 verified reviews across a large volume and near-uniform 5-star pattern reduce confidence in the review dataset.

Happy with the overall experience . I will recommend Dentakay to others definitely
So I came back to complete my treatment- four implants all completed. Zirconium crowns and implants all done. Not a bit of pain and the clinic staff are so welcoming and friendly. Shout out to Muharram- thank you for your care and attention. Will recommend DENTAKAY whenever I get the opportunity

y beautiful modern, spotless, and very relaxing. You can really tell they care about both their patients and the quality of service they provide. Every member of the team was kind, attentive, and happy to answer any questions, which gave me a lot of confidence and reassurance throughout my visit. I would highly recommend Dentakay Dental Clinic Antalya to anyone considering treatment. The level of care, attention to detail, and hospitality is outstanding. I’m genuinely looking forward to returning in a few months for my next visit.
I’m giving 5 stars because the positives massively outweigh the negatives. Positives - great team of people from Remi who sorted me day one, Gamze who was with me most of the way and was always upbeat and lovely . Big thanks to dentist Murat he was great (brutal at times ) but did a great job. Also when I made decision to go ahead I spoke to Yann in UK and I had lots of questions (which could have…

ve been saved with better flow of communication centrally) but Yann was brilliant and answered questions in evenings and at weekends. He also called me after the treatment to check in on me. Negatives - communication pre arrival - could do with more formal booking process and follow ups (like we are looking to see you on xx xx - monthly and weekly from booking- this could be automated) the communication in practice could have been better too - what you can and can’t do with temp teeth / maybe suggestions for what / where you can eat. Hotel was great but when I saw the alternative hotel I had jealous pangs - if you get a choice go for Falcon not Falcon 1511 - as the falcon is all inclusive and has pools - I was bored in down time.
Great service, friendly but very professional staff., we were kept informed of all stages of treatment. Transfer from clinic provided, beautiful surroundings the clinic has a contemporary setting. And Cem dentist were amazing 🤩 He had a lovely sense of humour and made my husband feel very at ease which was very hard to do .
I had 3 implants done and the treatment went perfectly, I'm happy to have them. I went back to finish the treatment and everything went well, I recommend the Dentakay clinic.

In my opinion, Dentakay is number one in Turkey and Antalya. The doctors, all the staff, especially the lady working at the reception and bar, Nimet Hanım, helped me even on her day off. In short, from my first day to my last, I felt like Dentakay was my own family. I would like to thank Dr. Muharrem very much. He was always attentive and very professional in his work.
Big thank you dentakay they did a great job, I’m very happy they look after me a very the moment arrived and the moment I left, thank you all the team.
Very happy with the work done. Confidence on my new smile. Thank you for the team.
I had an excellent experience at this dental clinic. From the moment I walked in, the staff were welcoming, professional, and attentive, which immediately put me at ease. The clinic itself was clean, modern, and well-organized, reflecting a high standard of care. Dr. Tahsin took the time to explain everything clearly, ensuring I understood the procedure and felt comfortable throughout.…

. Definitely the best doctor ! His calm and reassuring manner made a huge difference, especially if you’re someone who feels nervous about dental visits. Overall, the level of care and professionalism I received was outstanding. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate dental services.
"Horrible experience! My health was put in danger by this clinic. They took €12,000 and left me with serious injuries. When I complained, they started THREATENING me on WhatsApp. I have all the medical reports and proof of their unprofessional behavior. Save your money and your health, DO NOT trust their 'guarantee'—it’s a lie!" A COMPLETE SCAM! In September 2025, they glued my lower teeth in…

place and they fell out immediately. I had to travel again in November 2025 (at my own expense) to have them screwed in, but even those screws broke and gave way from the inside. I have a report from October 15, 2025, and another from March 30, 2026, that prove this medical disaster and the visible metal caused by receding gums. I paid €12,000 plus travel expenses for 3 trips, just to have my teeth destroyed. Despite my EU disability card, they showed not a shred of humanity and just kept sending me back and forth. BEWARE OF THEIR LIES!
