What are veneers?

Veneers are thin porcelain shells placed over the teeth for an ideal shape and color. They are suitable for worn, broken, or uneven teeth.

Can the shape of teeth be corrected without braces?

Yes, with composite restorations, veneers, or aligners. We will offer you a personalized treatment plan after a consultation.

Implantology
What is a dental implant?

An implant is a titanium screw that replaces the root of a missing tooth. A crown is placed on top of it, which looks and functions like a natural tooth.

How long does implant treatment take?

On average, between 3 and 6 months, depending on bone healing and the individual case.

How long do implants last?

With good oral hygiene and regular preventive check-ups: over 15 years, and often a lifetime.

Orthodontics
Do you offer clear aligners?

Yes. We work with modern Invisalign aligners, which straighten teeth discreetly and without metal elements.

Can an adult wear braces?

Of course. More and more adult patients are choosing aligners or aesthetic braces for smile correction.

Endodontics
What is endodontic treatment?

Endodontic treatment, also known as "root canal treatment", is a procedure to save a tooth whose nerve is inflamed or infected.

How long does the procedure take?

Usually between 1 and 2 visits, depending on the number of canals and the complexity of the case.

Pediatric Dentistry
At what age should a child visit the dentist?

Around 1 year of age or when the first tooth erupts. The first examination is short and adaptive.

How can I prevent cavities in baby teeth?

Regular brushing with children's toothpaste, limiting sugary foods and drinks, and preventive check-ups every 6 months.

X-ray Diagnostics
Is an X-ray examination necessary for every treatment?

An X-ray helps the doctor see the structure of the tooth, roots, and bone.

Is X-ray radiation safe?

Yes. We use digital X-ray equipment with minimal radiation exposure.
