I recently completed full dental implant treatment in Istanbul with Dr. Cem Baysal. After researching clinics across several countries - including Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, and Singapore - we chose this clinic for its quality, transparency, and surgical expertise. I’m posting this personal review to help other patients considering treatment in Turkey - as finding the right clinic can be overwhelming. My Full Dental Journey - Why I Chose Dr. Cem Baysal (Unpaid, Unfiltered Review) I first started researching this procedure, I read every review I could find - good, bad, and everything in between. It became obvious that many were paid or polished PR, and that a lot of the genuine negative experiences stemmed from poor after-care - not necessarily from bad dentists. Let’s be honest: 90% of post-procedure problems start when after-care slips. This review is 100% my own experience. No sponsorship - just my personal truth. After months researching dental options, visiting Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, and consulting in Singapore, I wanted to know what was possible, what each clinic would offer, and how it aligned with what I wanted. My prerequisites were clear: No lab rat work - I wanted experience. Direct communication with the doctor doing the work - no middlemen. Full transparency - no sales games. A procedure that aligned with my own research. I’m not new to dental trauma - I had a long-standing phobia due to past experiences where local anaesthetic didn’t work. If your tolerance is high, you feel everything - and dentists often don’t understand that. This led me to avoid the chair for years, relying on personal dental hygiene. The procedure I wanted? Full extraction. Radical for some, practical for me. I wanted zero future dental stress - no more decay, no more patchwork, no more dreaded dentist chairs. Many dentists resist this philosophy 'save every tooth' - my choice was clear - and I was ready to commit. That’s when I found 'Care in Turkey' via social media. On the surface - they looked slick. But once inside? A big mismatch. *Communications through third-party agents. *No direct access to the dentist. *A tourist dental factory. The final red flag: after several consultations and an agreement on the procedure - I realized that the dentist promoted online wouldn’t be doing the surgery. A total waste of time. After 5 days in Istanbul, I was frustrated. I hit the pavement. I mapped the areas of highest dental concentration in Istanbul and started over. Some clinics looked ok but didn’t feel right. I then found Dr. Baysal - ranked as 'best dentist in Turkey'. I checked the reviews - serious patients, real cases, years of consistent results. No factory feel. I walked in. That’s where my real journey began. When I first met Dr. Baysal, I knew I’d found the right match: transparency, honesty, and flexibility. He was clear about cost - no hidden upsells. He was honest about risks, including my request for full general anaesthetic, which he explained thoroughly. He was flexible, willing to listen to exactly what I wanted, not force a standard protocol. So the journey continued: Dr. Cem performed our sinus lifts using his own published technique - another reason we trusted his expertise. The cost? More than budgeted. But this was a once-in-a-lifetime decision - and I wasn’t going to risk cutting corners. I wanted it done right, first time. Dr. Cem laid out all the options with full pros and cons - and let me choose. For me, there was only one clear path: I wanted natural-looking teeth Strong, stable, low risk of failure A product that would look real, not 'Hollywood' fake I chose KATANA™ Zirconia - and it was my best decision ever. My partner also underwent procedures. Between us, we had extensive work: 20 implants with 54 KATANA Zirconia crowns in total. The look: slightly translucent, layered, lifelike - nothing else compared. Yes, it was more expensive - but worth every cent for peace of mind. As for Dr. Cem and his team: A true family-style operation - experienced, professional, tuned in. They knew exactly what I needed - often before I asked. The entire process ran like a well-oiled machine - but without losing the personal touch. I left the clinic with new teeth and pride in a job well done. An investment. Final advice: *Do your own research. *Ask questions. *Always get second and third opinions. I hope this experience helps others researching similar treatment. We are very happy with the result and the professionalism of Dr. Baysal and his team.

My treatment at Dr Cinik was no less than excellent! The staff were courteous, polite and professional. While I was there l also asked for a quote for another procedure because l know I'm in safe hands.

I realized that my teeth were starting to recede and after a little research, made an appointment for scaling at Cosmedica. I knew that scaling should be done well and carefully. Hoped that the treatment I will receive would be good. I got exactly what I expected

Excellent service. Recommended by friends who were living in Istanbul and have no regrets. Better than the private service in the UK. Very professional, clean and of excellent standard. Everything is always explained. Very good with handling any queries and anxiety about procedures. Will defo come back for any further follow-up treatment.

I had my laser eye surgery with Risus Clinic, and I am happy with the service and treatment. I think coming from the UK, I expected more testing and more information than I was given, but the treatment went well.

I was wearing full dentures for three months after losing all of my teeth, but I couldn't get used to them, so I started considering getting implant-supported fixed dentures, so I wouldn't have to take them out and could eat and look better. As I was planning a business trip to Istanbul, I began looking for a doctor who specialises in prosthodontics when I discovered Uzmanlar Dental Clinic. I received a free online consultation in which we discussed how many implants I needed and how long the treatment would take. They recommended a few nice hotels, and I booked my hotel and flight. They helped me with getting from Sabiha Gokcen airport in Istanbul to my hotel. Dr. Kodan placed 12 implants in total. I was completely numb and didn't feel any pain or discomfort. After one week in Istanbul, he gave me temporary teeth that were very comfortable and aesthetic, allowing me to eat normally and continue my social life during the three months it will take for implants to be integrated into my bone. After a week, I left Turkey for the UK, returning three months later to receive my final prostheses. They planned my smile makeover digitally and we had some tryouts; the entire treatment was completed after a week, and I'm very pleased with the results. I'd like to thank Dr. Kodan and his team for their welcoming approach and professionalism.
