Sedation and general anaesthesia

For long or major sur­gi­cal oper­a­tions, we offer anaes­the­sia by seda­tion or even gen­er­al anaes­the­sia at the clin­ic.

Con­duct­ed and mon­i­tored by our FMH-accred­it­ed anaes­thetist spe­cial­ist, the­se acts require prepa­ra­tion and addi­tion­al mon­i­tor­ing.

Periodontology

The peri­odon­tium, tooth sup­port­ing tis­sue, con­sists of the gin­gi­va and the alve­o­lar bone encom­pass­ing the den­tal roots.

Gin­givi­tis, slight inflam­ma­tion of bac­te­ri­al orig­in of the gums around the teeth or implants can be reversible. This requires reg­u­lar hygiene care. Untreat­ed gin­givi­tis can degen­er­ate into peri­odon­ti­tis, greater involve­ment char­ac­terised by irre­versible bone loss. With­out treat­ment the teeth can move and even­tu­al­ly fall out. Peri­odon­ti­tis is a mul­ti­fac­to­ri­al dis­ease influ­enced amongst oth­ers by the accu­mu­la­tion of tar­tar, plaque and tobac­co smoke.

Our hygien­ists have a vital role in pre­vent­ing peri­odon­tal dis­ease and reg­u­lar mon­i­tor­ing is essen­tial to main­tain a healthy oral con­di­tion.

Endodontics (root canal treatment)

Endodon­tics treats the inside of the tooth: the pulp and peri­radic­u­lar tis­sues (sur­round­ing the root). Designed to treat and pre­vent infec­tions in the­se areas, it pre­serves teeth that could be per­ma­nent­ly lost.

In our clin­ic, Doc­tor Milanka Planinic con­ducts the vast major­i­ty of root canal treat­ments. She has exten­sive expe­ri­ence in this area from work­ing for sev­er­al years in the endodon­tic divi­sion of the Uni­ver­si­ty of Geneva, Den­tal Med­i­cine Sec­tion.

Implant

The replace­ment of a tooth with an implant is now a reli­able treat­ment option. How­ev­er, it is nec­es­sary to have a suit­able recip­i­ent bone site, to ensure strength and dura­bil­i­ty to the implant. Accord­ing to recent sta­tis­tics the suc­cess rate of implants in 10 years in the non-smok­er is between 90 and 95%.

We have over fif­teen years of expe­ri­ence.
