The Turkey Dental Ratings index lists ten oral health clinics in Turkey, each with a composite score out of 100. This guide explains what that score measures, how the five weighted factors combine, what the ranking does not cover, and how to use the list as a starting point for your own checks. It is reference information, not medical advice and not a recommendation to book with any clinic.
What is the top 10 dental clinics in Turkey index?
It is an editorial ranking of ten clinics in Istanbul, Antalya, Izmir, Ankara and Bursa, scored against the same published criteria. Clinics cannot pay to be listed, and the score is not influenced by advertising or referral arrangements.
Each clinic has a profile page showing its factor scores, the evidence behind them, and links to official sources where a verifiable record exists.
How is the composite score calculated?
Every clinic is scored on five criteria. Each criterion score is multiplied by its weight, and the weighted results are added together to give a composite score out of 100.
| Factor | Weight | What it looks at |
|---|---|---|
| Accreditation | 25% | Verifiable external standards such as JCI, TEMOS and ISO certificates |
| Technology | 20% | Named, installed digital equipment and an integrated workflow |
| International Patient Care | 20% | Written treatment plans, coordination and support for patients travelling from abroad |
| Doctor Expertise | 20% | Specialist credentials and documented clinical experience |
| Patient Care & Follow-up | 15% | Aftercare, warranty terms and how problems are handled after return home |
What do the scores in the 2026 ranking look like?
In the 2026 cycle the composite scores range from 85.8 to 98.4. Small differences between neighbouring clinics usually come from one or two factors, so the factor breakdown on each profile is more informative than the rank number alone.
| Rank | Clinic | City | Score |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Esnan Dental Clinics | Istanbul | 98.4 |
| 2 | Vera Clinic | Istanbul | 96.2 |
| 3 | Mosdent Dental Hospital | Istanbul | 94.8 |
| 4 | Plusdent Dental Clinic | Istanbul | 93.5 |
| 5 | Dentopia Ataşehir | Istanbul | 92.1 |
| 6 | Maredent Dental Clinic | Antalya | 90.7 |
| 7 | AS Klinik Dental Polyclinic | Antalya | 89.4 |
| 8 | Dentaglobal | Izmir | 88.2 |
| 9 | BeyDent Dental Clinic | Ankara | 87.0 |
| 10 | Plaza Dental Polyclinic | Bursa | 85.8 |
How should you read a clinic's factor breakdown?
Start with the factor that matters most for your treatment. Someone planning several implants may care most about Doctor Expertise and Technology, while someone travelling for a short cosmetic treatment may look first at International Patient Care and Follow-up.
- Compare factor scores, not only the composite total.
- Open the Independent Verification section and check which credentials link to an official source.
- Treat credentials shown without a source link as unverified until you confirm them yourself.
- Check the last updated date, because scores belong to a specific rating cycle.
What does the index not measure?
Price is not scored, because advertised prices cannot be verified independently and change with each case. The index also does not assess individual treatment outcomes, review platforms or whether a clinic is right for your specific condition.
A high score means a clinic documents strong standards on the five criteria. It does not replace a clinical examination or a written treatment plan from a dentist.
How can you use the ranking to choose a clinic?
Use the list to narrow your options, then compare the shortlisted clinics on evidence you can check.
- Shortlist two or three clinics whose strongest factors match your treatment.
- Ask each for a written, itemised treatment plan before you travel.
- Confirm accreditation and certificates through the issuing body.
- Ask who will treat you and what their specialist training is.
- Get warranty and aftercare terms in writing, including what happens once you are home.
