Oral surgery
Oral surgical interventions in our office are small surgical interventions performed under local anesthesia, with the aim of remediating pathological processes on dental, bone and soft tissues of the oral cavity. The most common oral surgical interventions performed in ambulatory conditions are:
Extraction of teeth, Extraction of impacted teeth, Apicotomy, Cystectomy, Ridge levelling, Frenectomy, Flap surgery
Extraction of impacted teeth
Impacted teeth are those teeth that, for whatever reason, have not grown and are stuck partially or completely in the bone tissue of the jaw. The impacted tooth needs to be extracted because it can possibly lead to complications in later life, although the patient often has no symptoms. Only by looking at an X-ray can we determine its presence in the jaw. Although any tooth can be impacted, the teeth that most often remain impacted are impacted wisdom teeth and impacted canines.
Apicotomy (resection of the tooth root) - If the process on the tip of the root cannot be treated conservatively or if after a conservative treatment the infection still exists, the solution is resection of the tip of the tooth root or apicotomy. Apicotomy involves the removal of granulation tissue around the tip of the tooth root by curettage and shortening of the tip of the tooth root to the very edges of the bone defect. It is considered a small surgical intervention, and it lasts from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the region and the tooth in question.
Cystectomy - A cyst is an oval pathological cavity filled with liquid content lined with epithelium. They grow slowly and are most often diagnosed accidentally after X-rays are taken to plan a dental treatmen.
Ridge leveling aims to model or remove sharp bone edges, exostosis and growths that interfere with prosthetic care or wearing a prosthesis.
Frenectomy - Frenulum is a mucous fold or tassel, more precisely, a muscle-fibrous ribbon formation covered with mucous membrane that connects the mimic musculature (muscles) of the upper and lower lips to the alveolar ridge between the central incisors (upper and lower units). The lingual frenulum is a mucosal fold that connects the tongue with floor of the oral cavity. If the frenulum of the lips is more pronounced, it can be the cause of the central teeth spacing in both children and adults, it can pull the gums from the central incisors or it can interfere with the making and wearing of prostheses in elderly edentulous (toothless) patients. In that case, this intervention is called frenuloplasty. Regarding the time when the correction of the low attachment of the frenulum in children should be performed, orthodontists recommend that it be after the eruption of the upper permanent lateral incisors (upper twos). Frenectomy is a simple oral surgical intervention that is performed under local anesthesia and today it is performed just as successfully with the Biolase Epic laser, the latest generation laser that our dental practice owns. Frenulum of the tongue can hinder the mobility of the tongue in children, and thus make speech difficult. Removal of the frenulum of the tongue (labial frenulum) is a simple surgical intervention. It is performed under local anesthesia.
Flap surgery - Flap surgery is performed on a group of teeth where advanced periodontitis cannot be treated conservatively.

Aesthetic dentistry
AESTHETIC DENTISTRY is actually a set of various dental treatments aimed at improving the appearance of the teeth and gums, thereby improving the appearance of the entire orofacial system. Aesthetic dentistry is not a separate branch of dentistry – it actually represents a synergy of several dentistry branches and its main goal is achieving a healthy and bright smile and increasing the aesthetic value of teeth. Some of the most common requests in aesthetic dentistry are restorations of the carious lesions with white fillings (composite restorations) and another very frequent request of our patients is the application of veneers (ceramic veneers).
Dental prosthetics
Prosthetics is a dental discipline that deals with replacing lost teeth in several ways, more precisely with different types of dental restorations such as: ceramic crowns, metal-ceramic crowns, bridges, veneers, then dentures – complete dentures or partial dentures. Besides our doctors’ expertise, what also ranks us at the very top is the fact that each prosthetic work is performed according to the individual patient, and the final improvement is done directly in the patient's mouth so that it fits perfectly to the prepared situation in the mouth.
Children's and preventive dentistry
It is important to learn how to take care of your teeth from an early age. A children's dentist must also be a good educator and establish a relationship of trust with the little ones. Tooth repair is completely painless. Even in cases when the child comes with existing pain, or the cavity has progressed so far that it has reached the pulp chamber (nerve) and it is necessary to anesthetize it, the entire procedure is still painless. The use of anesthesia and anesthetic gel enables the procedure to be completely painless.
Orthodontics
Patients' wishes are straight and beautiful teeth, and our task is to help them achieve that. The branch of dental medicine that deals with the relationship of the teeth in the jaw and the correction of the position of the teeth is called ORTHODONTICS. Orthodontics aims at the correct placement of teeth which are important for the health of the organism as a whole, jaw joint, muscles and surrounding dental tissue.
Conservative dentistry
Conservative dentistry is aimed at treating and repairing teeth. The goal of conservative dentistry is beautiful, healthy and functional teeth. Among other things, conservative treatment includes procedures such as caries treatment with tooth fillings, inlay and onlay with indirect fillings.
Oral surgery
Oral surgical interventions in our office are small surgical interventions performed under local anesthesia, with the aim of remediating pathological processes on dental, bone and soft tissues of the oral cavity. The most common oral surgical interventions performed in ambulatory conditions are:
Extraction of teeth, Extraction of impacted teeth, Apicotomy, Cystectomy, Ridge levelling, Frenectomy, Flap surgery
Periodontology
Periodontology is a branch of dentistry that deals with treating the supporting structures of the teeth (bone, cementum, periodontium, gingiva) and which has recently experienced real progress.
With new methods of treatment today, extraordinary results are achieved so the treatment of periodontitis acquired a new dimension.
Dental implants
A dental implant is a replacement that imitates a lost tooth root. More precisely, they are cylindrical screws made of titanium that are implanted in the jawbone, and currently it is the most permanent and the best way to replace a lost tooth. The latest achievements in implantology have enabled a SIMPLE, PAINLESS AND SAFE method of installation when it comes to dental implants.
