5 qualified complaint incidents
2 serious (S3) · 0 critical (S4). Classified from third-party negative reviews under methodology v1.0 (automated draft, pending editorial sign-off).
The patient reported that multiple independent dental clinics in Lithuania and Türkiye confirmed the absence or insufficiency of certain procedures, leading to loss of trust and refusal to return for further treatment.
The patient reported paying for a sinus lift and bone graft that multiple independent clinics found no evidence of, and an implant deemed too short to support a crown, with the clinic refusing to address the issues.
The patient reported dissatisfaction with the quality of dental work and communication issues.
The patient reported that the clinic initially recommended 4 fillings but later added 8 fillings, veneers, and extractions based on the same X-ray, and that the initial consultation was charged separately.
The patient reported pain after a dental cleaning and inadequate cleaning of tooth surfaces.
