About Dr. Sadık Taki

Dr. Sadık Taki is a qualified Prosthodontist with over 12 years of combined clinical and academic experience in restorative and aesthetic dentistry. He is the founder and chief dentist of Taki Dent, Antalya's highest-rated dental clinic for UK and international patients.

After completing his Master's in Dentistry at Ankara University, Dr. Taki built an academic career — first as Research Assistant in the Department of Prosthodontics at Eskişehir Osmangazi University (2017–2020), then as Assistant Professor at Ankara Medipol University (2020–2022). During that period, he published 17 peer-reviewed papers in leading international dental journals, accumulating 45 academic citations.

In October 2022, Dr. Taki founded Taki Dent in Antalya, bringing research-backed clinical expertise directly to patients. His published work on marginal bone loss around implants, implant-retained overdentures, and prosthetic rehabilitation directly informs the protocols used at the clinic — evidence-based care rather than marketing claims.
