An independent register, not an advert
Top Dental Clinics Turkey ranks dental clinics in Turkey on the evidence-supported burden of complaints — not the volume of praise. The method is published, the sources are public, and no clinic can pay to change where it sits.
What this register does
Most "best clinic" lists in dental tourism are ranked by whoever pays the most, or by raw five-star averages that a clinic can buy. We do the opposite. We start from what goes wrong: we read the independent review record for evidence-supported complaints — botched work, undisclosed costs, aftercare that never came — and weigh their severity, credibility, recency and pattern. A clinic earns its place by having little against it, not by shouting the loudest.
The result is a single score out of 100 for every clinic, reproducible by anyone who applies the same published method to the same public evidence. Clinics that don't yet have enough independent evidence to score fairly are shown as “Listed, not ranked” rather than guessed at.
How the score is built
Eight weighted criteria, out of 100. Marketing, advertising spend and star averages earn zero points. Full detail lives in the ranking methodology.
Severity, credibility, recency and pattern of evidence-supported complaints — the single largest factor.
Named clinicians, published prices, warranty terms and contactable details on the record.
Verifiable authorisation to operate and to treat international patients.
Clear, itemised pricing rather than "from" figures or quote-only.
Independent review record read for substance, not raw star averages.
Documented specialists, implant systems and materials in use.
Written guarantee terms and a defined route for corrective work.
Responsiveness and clarity in the language UK patients use.
Our independence
This is an independent register. No clinic — including the one currently ranked first — can pay for placement, a higher rank, or a more favourable assessment. We do not book treatment, arrange travel, sell patient leads, or take booking fees. The platform is operated by ITEXPERT24 LTD (United Kingdom); we are not a clinic and not a government authority. How we cover our costs is set out in our advertising disclosure.
Editorial oversight
Clinical claims on this site are reviewed for accuracy by an editorial panel of GDC-registered UK dentists — each registration is independently checkable on the General Dental Council register. Scoring itself is deterministic and rule-based, so no individual editor can move a clinic up or down by preference. You can read our editorial policy and see the panel on the editorial team page.
Where our data comes from

We are not an inspection body, and listings are compiled from public profiles — always verify a clinic's authorisation and credentials directly before booking.
