Pelin Açık, DDS

Pelin Açık, DDS is a dentist in the Dental & Oral Health unit at Acibadem Adana Hospital in Adana, Turkey. Her primary specialty is oral and dental health, and she has more than eight years of experience in medicine. Dr. Açık graduated from Yeditepe University Faculty of Dentistry in 2018 and has since worked in clinical dental practice, providing assessment and treatment for patients with a range of oral and dental health needs.

Before joining Acıbadem Healthcare Services in 2026, Dr. Açık held positions as a dentist (Dr. Dt.) at several oral and dental health polyclinics. In 2022 she worked at Dent Town Oral and Dental Health Polyclinic, followed in 2023 by Mirza Dent Gaziantep Oral and Dental Health Polyclinic. From 2023 to 2024 she practised at VTR Oral and Dental Health Polyclinic, and from 2024 to 2025 at DentMaster Oral and Dental Health Polyclinic. This sequence of clinical roles forms the basis of her current work in Adana.

Clinical focus

Dr. Açık’s clinical work is centered on general oral and dental health. She provides dental care with a patient-focused approach and supports individuals who are seeking assessment and treatment for oral and dental health concerns. Her practice is consultation-led: a patient’s concerns are discussed openly, the current condition of the teeth and mouth is examined, and treatment planning is based on the individual’s needs rather than a fixed protocol. Whether any specific procedure is appropriate can only be determined after a clinical examination and, where relevant, a review of imaging.

For patients researching implant-based treatment options in general, this site also provides information on zygomatic implants. Such pages are intended for general orientation only; suitability for any particular treatment is assessed case by case and discussed directly with the treating dentist.

How Dr. Açık works with international patients

Dr. Açık speaks Turkish and English, and interpreters can be arranged for patients who prefer another language. The Acibadem international patient team coordinates the collection of prior reports and imaging, such as dental X-rays, CT reports, laboratory and pathology results, operative notes and discharge summaries, and arranges appointments and the hospital visit. A first consultation typically covers the patient’s history and symptoms, a review of existing imaging and previous dental treatments, a clinical examination of the mouth and teeth, and a discussion of the available options. Video consultation is available for international patients who wish to discuss their situation with Dr. Açık before travelling; however, a definitive dental assessment generally requires an in-person examination.
