6.4 out of 10
Overall score
Boutique clinic in Istanbul's Ritz Carlton building led by Dr. Ali Mardini and Dr. Lujain, with a large Google review base (307 reviews, 4.93 rating) and a strong Arab diaspora patient following. Reviews are varied and personal, describing complex implant and veneer cases with consistently positive outcomes, though zero verification and a near-perfect rating with no mid-range reviews warrant caution. One external complaint about cash payment pressure and one price-related 1-star review suggest a premium cost structure that may not suit budget-conscious tourists.
