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.

My sister and my friend also got them done, and today I went back to the same clinic for a…

compassionate Dr. Lujain, will welcome you and provide you with the best possible service. Update: Four years after getting veneers, thank God, I haven't experienced any pain or dental problems. Even my visits to the dentist are just for checkups and monitoring. I used to think that dental pain and problems would be a lifelong struggle, but thank God, thanks to the expertise of Dr. Ali and his wife, Dr. Lujain, they have made our lives and smiles so much better.
