to Istanbul for implant surgery performed by Dr. Erdoğan. The procedure went well and gave us confidence in the clinic. We returned again in December of the same year for the crown placement. Unfortunately, that stage took longer than expected, and we had to stay in Istanbul for an additional three weeks. After returning to the United States, we noticed several issues with the crowns — some immediately, others gradually over time. Out of respect, I will not mention the name of the original dentist, though I hope he reads this review and uses it for professional development. As a person he was kind, but the work did not meet the level we expected. When we contacted the clinic with our concerns, they responded with honesty, humility, and complete professionalism. They ✔ promised to correct all mistakes, ✔ redo all crown work at no cost, ✔ and fully cover our hotel stay until treatment was completed. They fulfilled every promise exactly as stated. Approximately 10.5 months later, we returned to Istanbul for the corrective treatment. This time, our experience was guided by the new manager, Hamza. I sincerely want to acknowledge him: he is energetic, intelligent, analytical, honest, solution-oriented, and truly committed to patient satisfaction. Most importantly, his word can be trusted — a rare quality. His English is excellent, and he managed everything with attention and professionalism. The doctors who truly transformed our situation were Dr. Kübra Karahüseyin and her husband Shahin, both specialists in crowns and restorative dentistry. They may also be great implantologists — I simply do not know, because our implants were done by another surgeon. Dear readers, please understand something important: Implant surgery matters, but the true artistry, beauty, comfort, and long-term success come from the crowns. This requires precision, aesthetics, and high-level skill. In Dr. Kübra, we saw a real virtuoso. Shahin is equally skilled — possibly even more — but we were especially touched by Dr. Kübra’s warm smile, gentle manner, and attention to every detail. I swear by Allah — they are masters of the highest class. With Dr. Kübra’s guidance and Hamza’s support, the clinic redid all previous work from scratch. New abutments were placed and completely new, high-quality crowns were made. All treatment was completed within two weeks, and during this time the clinic fully covered our hotel stay. The results were outstanding: • My bite and oral structure now feel natural, comfortable, and balanced. • My wife’s facial aesthetics improved beautifully; her lips gained natural support and harmony. • All crowns were placed using screw-retained systems, not cement, making future maintenance simple and professional. • My wife now feels much more comfortable, and her crowns look extremely natural — even more beautiful than before. To summarize this doctor couple: Everything their hands touch becomes something exceptional — in our culture, such gifted hands are called “diamond touch.” Their work truly resembles the precision and finesse of a master polishing diamonds. I also sincerely thank Roza and Lili, who helped us with translations and many practical matters. And I want to clearly say this: I will write an honest follow-up update in 6–7 months — whether positive or negative — exactly as it is. This is my responsibility to future patients. As a Muslim and as a human being, I wholeheartedly recommend DrGo Dental Clinic for implant and crown treatment. They truly stand behind their work — 100 percent. ⸻

r accommodation for retreatment in Istanbul. Given the extent of the damage and the ongoing pain, I no longer feel safe returning for further procedures. Despite multiple attempts to resolve this, the clinic refused a refund and later issued invoices showing less than half of what I paid. I have since filed a formal complaint with the Istanbul Health Directorate and Turkish Dental Association. I share my experience to warn others to research thoroughly before undergoing major dental work abroad. (Photos and specialist medical reports confirming the corrective surgery are available for verification.) I am updating my review to provide a full and accurate account of my experience with DrGo Istanbul. I travelled to the clinic in May 2025 for a full-mouth zirconium restoration and paid over €6 000 in cash for 28 crowns, an upper bridge, and a root canal. Initially, the treatment seemed fine, but within a short time I developed serious complications. The upper bridge failed and detached, leaving me unable to chew properly. I then developed a severe abscess under tooth #43, which became a medical emergency. My local oral surgeon in South Africa confirmed that the infection required urgent apicectomy, abscess drainage, and bone augmentation under general anaesthetic. I was specifically advised not to travel internationally due to the infection and the risk of it spreading, so returning to Istanbul for retreatment was not medically possible. Despite this, the clinic refused a refund and only offered retreatment if I travelled back to Turkey. Another serious concern is that the clinic issued two Turkish e-invoices months after my complaint, with dates of 2 June 2025, showing a total of approximately 101 000 TL (around €2 850) — less than half of the amount I actually paid in cash. These invoices do not reflect the full payment, despite the clinic claiming they include “all procedures.” My payment records and WhatsApp messages clearly show otherwise. I also want to mention that the clinic requested a Google review immediately after treatment, before any healing or long-term results were visible. Many of the positive reviews here appear to have been written the same day patients left the clinic, which does not show the real outcome once healing actually begins. My own complications only became evident later, long after a same-day review would have suggested everything was perfect. I have now filed formal complaints with the Istanbul Health Directorate and the Turkish Dental Association, and have undergone corrective surgery in South Africa due to the complications. I am sharing this to ensure others have a transparent understanding of the long-term risks involved. My experience has been painful, stressful, and costly, and it is important for future patients to have a complete picture — not just immediate, same-day impressions.

installation of the crowns. I wish the entire clinic staff good luck and continued success! I wish the clinic prosperity and growth! I will definitely recommend you to my family and friends.

l fixtures and will be able to live a normal social life and work with people after 3 days in clinic. When I flew over to Istanbul and came to get it done, coordinators changed the prices for the planned procedures and refused to provide temporary fixtures, because it turned out "you need at least two weeks to get them. And they are still useless in majority of cases, so patients wear masks, and stay without work for half a year, until the implants are safe to put permanent fixtures"
