Hello. I would very much like to become pregnant, but I have one problem.

Dear Sir/Madam! The price of an upper total denture is 700 Eur, and a lower partial denture (cast base) is 900 Eur. If I have understood you correctly, you would like fixed prosthetics in the upper jaw, that is, something you do not remove for cleaning. For this type of treatment

Visitor asks:

Hello. I am young, with very poor genetic predisposition. Yesterday my whole upper set fell out—from teeth 1-4 on each side there was a bridge, with a visible replacement suspended from it.

Visitor asks:

Hello, six months ago my upper right first molar was extracted. In your opinion, which is more suitable: a bridge or a dental implant? What is the procedure for each service and what is the price at your clinic? I would also like to know the price of replacing 4 gray fillings with white ones. Thank you very much for yo

Dear Sir/Madam! If the anatomical conditions for implant placement are sufficient, it is better to place an implant. The procedure is non-radical because the neighboring teeth do not need to be ground down as they do when making a bridge. The implant is placed under local anesthe

Hello I am asking on behalf of my 14-year-old daughter. She has a gap of about 3-4 mm between the upper and lower central incisors, which bothers her more and more.
