Overall score
Dentavie (drkundakcioglu.com) is a well-staffed multi-specialist clinic in Istanbul's Beyoglu district with credentialed dentists including a London-trained orthodontist and a Straumann-certified implantologist. Reviews are consistently positive with specific treatment outcomes and named staff, but all 50 are 5-star with zero verified, reducing authenticity confidence. Tourist infrastructure is solid with English support, WhatsApp, and accommodation coordination.
Authenticity
6/10All 50 reviews are 5-star, 0 verified. Named dentists (Samet, Meral Ece, Gulsah) match website. URL mismatch: listing links to drkundakcioglu.com but branded Dentavie -- possible rebrand.
Treatment quality
7/10Multiple reviews cite specific successful outcomes: veneers, implants, extractions, crowns, orthodontics. No failed work or rework complaints found across 50 reviews.
Cleanliness
8/10Multiple reviews describe clinic as 'immaculately clean', 'spotless', 'clean and hygienic'. No hygiene complaints found. Consistent across many independent reviews.
Team
7/10Dr. Abdulsamet Kundakcioglu (oral surgery, 15 yrs), Dr. Gulsah (ortho, trained London Royal College/Brussels), Dr. Meral Ece (aesthetic). Straumann provider, ITI and AAO certified.
Price value
7/10Bookimed shows implants from ~$350-$880. No price list on website -- contact required. Competitive for Istanbul market but transparency is limited for tourist planning.
Tourist suitability
7/10English-speaking doctor and Arabic-speaking staff confirmed. WhatsApp contact, video consultations, airport/hotel transfer, accommodation coordination (coordinator Majd named in review).
What comes up well

Points to weigh

- Website URL on listing (drkundakcioglu.com) differs from Dentavie brand -- possible rebrand or profile confusion
- No price list on website -- tourists must contact clinic to get quotes

İstanbul Dental Clinic Turkey give an exception service from dentists, hygienist,dental nurses and front desk receptionists. The surgery is clean and tidy, and the staff are pleasant and welcoming. Any costs involved for treatments are given before any treatment takes place.
Samet seems to genuinely interested in his patients. He has been always informative about any treatment I have received, so we can choose the preferred treatment. Thorough and thoughtful in his approach.
Thank you to the reception staff for always being helpful and providing advice. Thank you to the doctors for their professionalism and dedication.
The staff were very friendly and are very professional .The standard of care I get at this practice is always amazing and worth the long drive . Would highly recommend.
I'm terrified of dentists but I always have a positive experience at İstanbul Dental Clinic Turkey. My dentist is fantastic and has patiently helped me to be less afraid! The staff are friendly, helpful and professional and the premises are squeaky clean. I have no complaints and would encourage anyone to go there.
Great service and treatment at İstanbul Dental Clinic Turkey. A routine check up revealed one of my molars had split and needed to be removed. I attended a 2nd appointment and the dentist removed both halves of the tooth painlessly. Every aspect from appointment to briefing about care for where the tooth had been removed were conducted in a professional manner. The appointments staff, were also…

very efficient and managed to find a cancellation and brought my appointment forward.
The reception and dental staff were all very friendly, calm and knowledgeable. I was kept informed of everything that the dentist would do and could ask any questions if I wanted to. A very pleasant experience.
All staff are friendly, helpful and polite. Every professional I have seen has taken the time to explain exactly what my issues are, how I might resolve them, and they have included me in all decision making. More than worth the price of going private.
Dr Samet is so reassuring explains things fully and takes her time when she has a twitchy anxious patient therefore instilling confidence in me to go ahead with treatment. The whole team are always helpful when I ring wouldn't want to go anywhere else.
Greeted warmly with a smile. Within 3 minutes the dental nurse came to collect me and was led into the dentists room where everything was explained to me what he was about to carry out with today's treatment. So professional and reassuring. Plus most importantly he made sure I didn't take my blood thinners that morning before he started treatment.
The first time I walked in I felt at ease everyone was friendly an d it was the first time I did not feel frightened at a dentist. Dr Samet and his nurse did everything to make it a good experience.
İstanbul Dental Clinic Turkey makes each visit a pleasant experience which is quite an achievement for a dental practice. The place is spotless and the staff are lovely.
The worst place I've ever seen in my life. I wouldn't recommend going there at all.

I attended İstanbul Dental Clinic Turkey for my dental hygiene appointment today and I received a wonderful service from both Dr Samet and Nurse. The care was brilliant and excellent. Thanks to both of you.
Samet is an amazing dentist, who does fabulous treatment and always very gentle, checking you are comfortable during the whole procedure.
First visit to İstanbul Dental Clinik Turkey for treatment. First impressions were very good thanks to nurse who was very friendly and could not have been more helpful. Samet the hygienist was brilliant, explaining everything and worked very considerately with a great end result. Very happy with the service received.
My last visit with Samet was the best I’ve ever been in the chair, I am more than confident to go back for further treatment with him. He was unbelievable, he actually got my fears, 1st time in what seems forever. From taking months of suffering before I could get the courage to even call the dentist, to being ready for my next visit. Thank you.
Really friendly team, Dr Samet and her nurse are amazing at relaxing people, always cheerful and positive. A filling and an extraction, both made a really good experience!
Great service, friendly staff, nice appointment and waiting rooms, minimal hassle. Thank you !
Outstanding. Professional, highly skilled staff. Treatments are carried out to the very highest standard. Impossible to speak too highly of both hygienist and dentist. Such care, sensitivity, skill, and attention to derail. All staff, both …
Fantastic Dentist. Reception staff are friendly and put you at ease straight away. I was a nervous patient, but Samet is such a good dentist that I don't worry anymore.
