Dr. Mert Akbaş Clinic occupies a distinctive position in Istanbul's dental landscape: a 500-square-metre specialist centre in Şişli where the boundaries between advanced implantology and oral-maxillofacial surgery overlap. For patients with complex dental needs — whether requiring zygomatic implants, jaw reconstruction, cyst removal, or full-arch restoration after significant bone loss — this is a clinic operating at the clinical frontier.
Dr. Mert Akbaş brings exceptional academic and clinical credentials to his practice. Born in 1987 and graduating from Marmara University Faculty of Dentistry in 2012, he completed his Masters in Oral Implantology at Bezmialem University in 2015 before pursuing a PhD at Istanbul University's Department of Oral, Dental, and Maxillofacial Surgery, which he completed in 2023. He continues his academic career at Nişantaşı University — a dual commitment to research and practice that keeps his clinical approach grounded in the latest evidence. His clinic has been described on Google Reviews as one of the most reliable dental facilities in Istanbul.
The clinic's specialist capabilities set it apart from general cosmetic dental practices. Zygomatic implants — a complex procedure for patients with severely atrophied upper jaw bone who cannot receive conventional implants — represent one of Dr. Akbaş's signature offerings. Maxillofacial surgery encompassing jaw and facial fracture treatment, orthognathic jaw surgery, and facial trauma rehabilitation reflects his doctoral-level specialisation. Cyst and tumour treatments of the jaw and oral cavity are handled with surgical precision. For patients whose needs sit within conventional implantology, single and full-arch implant restorations — including All-on-4 and All-on-6 frameworks — are equally well served by Dr. Akbaş's implant expertise.
Cosmetic and restorative treatments complete the clinic's offering: porcelain and composite laminate veneers, implant-supported prostheses, teeth whitening, anterior aesthetic restorations, and conservative dental treatments ensure that patients with straightforward cosmetic goals are as well catered for as those requiring complex surgery.
The clinic has earned a 5-star Trustpilot rating across 154 reviews — an impressive body of patient feedback for a specialist surgical practice. International patients from across Europe and beyond choose Dr. Akbaş for cases that require a clinician who combines the precision of a trained maxillofacial surgeon with the aesthetic sensibility of an implant prosthetist.
Located in Şişli — one of Istanbul's most accessible and well-serviced districts — the clinic is convenient for patients staying across the European side of the city, with excellent links to Istanbul's transport network and international airport connections.

Thank you very much. My tooth was broken, and Professor Mert extracted the remaining tooth without breaking it again.

Dr. Mert performed the extraction of my two impacted wisdom teeth and also cleaned the cysts that had formed. I was very scared of my lower impacted tooth, but I didn't hesitate because I trusted him. He is very professional and has excellent communication skills with his patients. He is a doctor I would recommend without hesitation for wisdom tooth treatment.

For years, I couldn't eat comfortably due to missing teeth. I had my implant treatment here, and the results were excellent. I experienced no pain during or after the procedure. My doctor, Mert, was very attentive and provided detailed information at every stage. They are a truly professional team, and I wholeheartedly recommend them.

Today, September 22nd, at noon, I went to the clinic for my wisdom tooth and the decayed tooth. My tooth was coming out crooked, and the root was very close to my nerves. Because it was risky, I waited 10 years to have my teeth extracted. Mert extracted both teeth and the cysts in about 7-8 minutes. I didn't feel any pain; I only heard the pressure and the sound of the tooth breaking. I was very hesitant at first, but I was very surprised when he removed both teeth in 7 minutes and quickly stitched them up. Now, 4-5 hours have passed since the surgery, and I feel great and have no problems. I thank Mert for his practicality, reassuring comments, and professionalism regarding my wisdom teeth. Even a dental cleaning takes 25 minutes, but he was impressive in removing two of my teeth in seconds. I'll definitely recommend this dentist to my friends and wish you continued success.

My cousin had problems with his jawbone. Most doctors said implants weren't possible. Dr. Mert Akbaş did it. The implants were done in a very short time. He is an expert oral surgeon in his field. May God bless him.

I had a cyst very close to a nerve in my jaw and jawbone atrophy. I went to other dentists, but they gave negative feedback. Then I went to Dr. Mert, and he solved my problems beautifully. He had a gentle touch and took very good care of me. Thank you very much, Dr. Mert.

I had missing teeth in my lower jaw. I live in the Netherlands. Here, it's both very expensive and the doctors aren't very good. Dr. Mert Akbaş performed two implants on me. I don't even know how he did it; it was over in 10 minutes. I'm very satisfied.
