Visitor asks:

Hello! I would like to know whether you also provide endoscopic root treatment under the concession and what the waiting time is. If the procedure is self-paid, what is the price (I need root treatment on teeth 4 and 5 on the lower right); and of course what is the waiting time in that case? Thank you very much for you

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.

Dear Sir/Madam! The price of each treatment phase is 90 Eur. Two to three phases are required for the therapy. We try to adapt the waiting time to the urgency of the service (from a few days to a few weeks). Have a nice day!

Visitor asks:

I need to have a tooth extracted and replaced. I would like to know whether it is possible for you to provide at least a temporary tooth already on Monday—can it be obtained on the same day as the extraction? I can send a photo of my teeth by email beforehand if necessary. And what is the price of temporary teeth? Plea

Dear Sir/Madam! If the tooth is in the visible sector, we place a temporary (most often removable) replacement immediately after the tooth is removed; you can use it until the day the final implant-supported restoration is made. In this case (comprehensive treatment), the tempora

Visitor asks:

Hello. My front teeth are damaged and some are also missing. I would like completely new front teeth and would like to know within what time frame this could be done.

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.

Dear Sir/Madam! If I have understood you correctly, I believe you need fixed prosthetic treatment of the visible area. If there are no other pathological conditions (inflammation of the gums, pulp or periapical tissues), the work can be completed within two weeks. Have a nice day

Visitor asks:

Hello. I am 49 years old and have had problems with periodontal disease for some time. On the lower left at the back, the teeth are still fairly stable, then on the left tooth 2 is missing and tooth 1 is loose; on the right tooth 1 is loose, teeth 2-4 are missing, and teeth 5 and 6 are loose. The condition has worsened

Dear Sir/Madam! Based on what you have written, I believe it is worth retaining the teeth on the lower left, namely 3,4,5,6.... The visible sector and the teeth on the lower right would probably need to be removed because of their mobility. The solutions can be removable or fixed

Visitor asks:

A pocket suddenly swelled up between teeth 2 and 3 in the lower jaw; when I press on it, blood comes out. Two days earlier I had quite strong air conditioning blowing in the car. Could it be from a draft, and what do you advise me to do to make it go away? Thank you

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.

Dear Sir/Madam! The condition you describe resembles acute inflammation of the interdental gum, most often caused by the presence of plaque and bacteria in this area. The condition is almost certainly not related to a draft. Clean and massage the area between the two teeth with a

Visitor asks:

Hello, I am writing to you because I am becoming somewhat desperate. A month ago my personal dentist extracted the upper left 2 and made an acrylic temporary bridge attached to the 3 (which I of course had to pay 64 Eur for), and it fell off the very next day. After it was re-cemented, it held for a good two weeks, whe

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.

Dear Sir/Madam! We solve the situation you describe with a removable temporary replacement (mini denture), which you remove at night and while cleaning your teeth. Cementing a replacement to the neighboring teeth is most often unsuccessful. You have two permanent solutions: -maki

Visitor asks:

Hello! I am missing the upper right 4… I would like to know the cost and procedure so that I could have a normal tooth again, because the gap bothers me when I smile.. (I do not understand terms such as “VENEER/COVERING”, “CROWN”, etc…)

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.

Dear Sir/Madam! The gap can be closed in two ways: -making a bridge, which requires grinding both neighboring teeth and making three crowns. Price: 210 Eur (metal-ceramic crown) X 3 = 630 Eur. - placement of an implant that supports the missing tooth, without the need to interfer

Visitor asks:

Hello.. I would like to know whether, if someone decides to get dental veneers, installment payments are possible, how much the first installment is and what is required.. thank you for the answer and kind regards

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.

Dear Sir/Madam! We agree on the method of payment according to your possibilities. You receive the invoice on the day the work is completed and pay it in installments as agreed. Have a nice day!

Visitor asks:

Hello, I am 21 years old and for almost a year my dentist has been performing endodontic treatment on my lower left 6. Since treatment with her was unsuccessful, she referred me to a specialist, who says that even if treatment with him succeeds, the inflammation may recur within two years and the tooth will then have t

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.

Dear Sir/Madam! Based on what you have written, I believe an implant is the most suitable solution, because the neighboring teeth do not suffer any damage when replacing the missing tooth, as they do when a bridge is made. The price of the service is: -750 Eur (implant) -420 Eur

Visitor asks:

I am 30 years old and would like to know whether chronic inflammation of the teeth and gums is necessarily visible on an X-ray. A year ago I had severe inflammation of the gums and teeth, and now pain is occurring around the root system. In an article by a renowned dentist I read that chronic inflammation does not nece

Dentist Tomaž Rotar answers:This question is more than six months old, so the information in the answer may no longer be accurate.

Dear Sir/Madam! An X-ray shows changes in hard tissues, that is, tissues that have the property of absorbing X-rays. In the case in question, an X-ray could show changes in the bone or hard dental tissues, but this is not always the case. Inflammatory changes in the periodontal t
