Visitor asks:

Hello, I am missing both upper lateral incisors and would like to know what would be the most favorable solution in terms of price and quality — a bridge? implants? I am interested in both a price comparison and quality. Respectfully, andreja

Dear Sir/Madam! If we place implants, the neighboring teeth (the canines on both sides) do not need to be ground down. From a professional standpoint, implantology is therefore the best solution (if anatomical and other conditions permit it). Price: - 750 EUR (implant) X 2 = 1500

Visitor asks:

Hello, I am facing the decision to have all my upper teeth extracted, and dentists have recommended a removable denture. I would like to know what options there are with implants, as I want a permanent solution and not a removable denture. I am also interested in the price and the minimum number of implants required to

Dear Mimi! A fixed construction should be supported by at least six implants. Bone density, anatomical conditions that determine the length and thickness of the implants... are key factors influencing the time required from placement to loading of the implants. The procedure can

Visitor asks:

Dear Sir/Madam, My father is 74 years old and has had a complete denture for 15 years. It is badly worn and no longer enables him to chew food normally, so he urgently needs a new one. We have been told that the waiting time through health insurance is 3 years, whereas if he pays privately he can get one in a very shor

Dear Sir/Madam! That is correct! However, if we determine that the prosthetic service is urgent, we can place it on the list of fast-track services. Have a nice day!

Visitor asks:

Hello! I would like to know whether it is possible to whiten only the front teeth, from the central incisor to the first premolar, in both jaws, since these are really the only teeth that show when I smile... and would tooth whitening therefore be any cheaper? Thank you 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! It is possible to whiten only individual teeth! The price of the procedure is the same. Have a nice day!

Visitor asks:

Hello! I have a problem with my lower first molar. Caries began to develop in the tooth and the dentist decided to treat it. I think the tooth no longer has a nerve because the dentist removed it and started treatment by placing medication inside the tooth, which was supposed to remain there until the next visit, but i

Dear Sir/Madam! From what you have written, I believe it would be advisable to extract the tooth (we would certainly need to see an X-ray). The price of the procedure is 60 EUR, or 90 EUR if it is a more difficult extraction (surgical extraction; suturing...). Have a nice day!

Visitor asks:

Dear Sir/Madam, I am 74 years old. I have a complete denture in the upper jaw and a clasp denture in the lower jaw, attached to 7 front teeth (3 left, 4 right). I have no molars. The denture was newly made 1.5 years ago, but it is worse than the previous one. After only a few months it began to move (rock at the front

Dear Sir/Madam! We can schedule you for an examination. (04/5300660). After the examination we will try to determine the reason for the problems described. I recommend that you also visit the dentist who made the denture for you. I am sure that he will know how to resolve this pa

Visitor asks:

Dear Sir/Madam! Since I do not have a personal dentist, I would like to know when I could get an appointment with you (under the concession system). I have not been to a dentist for 18 years and have a fairly strong phobia of dentists, but it is slowly becoming time to visit one again :( I am afraid that soon all my te

Visitor asks:

Dear Sir/Madam! Because of granulomas I have lost three first molars (two lower and one upper). I am 32 years old. I am not keen on bridges because the neighboring teeth are healthy. I am considering implants. Although I know that an examination at your practice would be necessary first, I would still like at least an

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! It would be difficult to discuss additional procedures (bone augmentation...) without a clinical examination and an X-ray. If we are talking about risks, in this region I would point out injury to the nerve (n. mandibularis), which we avoid through appropriate tre

Visitor asks:

Dear Sir/Madam, half of my upper front tooth has broken off. Since I work with people, I urgently need to have this repaired. How quickly could I be seen if I come as a private-paying patient? After that visit, I would like to arrange a complete rehabilitation of my teeth, which are in very, very poor condition. Since

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! Repair of an incisor is a relatively quick and simple solution. You can book by telephone. Given the urgency of the service, you would be seen within a few days. Treatment of an edentulous patient is certainly possible in several ways. The simplest and least expen
