5.4 out of 10
Overall score
SaphireDent is a large-scale Istanbul dental tourism facility with genuine international reach and a multilingual coordinator system that works well logistically. However, billing surprises at checkout, a documented implant brand misrepresentation, a reported surgical error, and a pattern of unverified generic reviews undermine confidence for high-spend tourists. Patients planning major work should get written itemised quotes before travel and confirm implant brand certificates in advance.
Authenticity
5/10Baseline 7: website, named staff, negative reviews survive, genuine intl reach. -2 medium manipulation: 0 verified of 422+ reviews, heavy coordinator name-drop pattern, many generic thank-you posts. Final 5.

I want to sincerely thank the clinic staff for the warm welcome and excellent service. During this visit, they completed my all-in-6 installation. Overall, the staff exceeded all expectations, from the transfer and reception to the wonderful specialists. Special thanks to our translator, Emir, and our coordinator, Adnan.
Hi I came to Saphire Dental from USA I did 9 implant the surgery went very good and the doctor muhammet ümit Toka was amazing work and I want to thanks Adnan he was very welcoming and very helpful
I found the clinic by chance online and contacted them. Since I speak Spanish better than English, they put me in touch with Islem, and I can honestly say she's the best. She's been attentive to me the whole time. I successfully underwent a very demanding operation with 11 implants, a sinus lift, and bone grafting, thanks to the best implantologist in Turkey, Dr. Muhammet Ümit Toka. Now I have…

to wait 10 months to heal. I chose Straumann implants; they're reliable and come with a lifetime warranty. They even gave me a European passport. They are undoubtedly the best professionals. And let's not forget Mona, the receptionists, and the nurses—they're the best and so kind. The red-haired girl is also a sweetheart; unfortunately, I can't remember her name. And the doctor who gave me the estimate is also a wonderful person. In 10 months or more, when this is over, I'll update my review to tell you how it went. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart, you're the best!
Saphire dent did an amazing job , Justin was there every step of the way translating for me. Dr yasemin made my teeth look perfect and exactly how I wanted them . Will recommend saphire dent to everyone looking for the best smile
I came to this clinic for implants and bone addition. Before choosing this clinic, I didn't know much, but I found the most professional people here. The work was very complicated, 11 implants, sinus lift and bone addition, but despite this, I was lucky to have a doctor, Muhammet Umit Toka, who, through his professionalism, patience and calmness, made everything seem easy. For implantology, I…

Dr. Yasemin Jolha did an amazing job. Thank you so much!…

Without a doubt, the worst clinic. My husband went there to have all his teeth fixed; they removed all the bad ones and put in implants. When he got back to Spain, within days the implants started falling out, and he developed a massive …
I'm satisfied. Friendly service. The work was done for the agreed price. Everything was done as agreed. Pick-up from the airport to the hotel. Transfers from the hotel to the clinic. I highly recommend them.
I would like to thank the entire clinic staff and a special thank you to Professor Adnan.

The Polish dental clinic, the 650 PLN spent there for a photo, and the lack of professionalism in the treatment encouraged me to travel to Turkey to SaphireDent. Polish dentists had completely rotted my teeth under all my crowns, in four …
