The decision to remove wisdom teeth is a matter of trust. In our Zurich practice, we combine top surgical expertise with sensitive treatment. A decisive advantage for you: the procedure is carried out by our specialised oral surgeon.

Hyaluronic acid is already familiar to many from skincare, but this naturally occurring substance also performs remarkable feats in modern dentistry. Healthy gums are the foundation of every beautiful smile. However, when gums recede due to inflammation or mechanical stress, sensitive tooth necks or unsightly gaps often result. Treatment with hyaluronic acid offers a highly effective, biological way to regenerate and strengthen the tissue. 

Not only does snoring drive your partner out of the woods, it can also drive you from bed to sofa very quickly! Snoring is not just a couple's problem, but also one for your health. Breathing pauses and so-called sleep apnea can occur, which increases the risk of numerous illnesses. Enough reasons to put an end to the annoying night sawing with an anti snoring therapy. By the way, you are not alone when it comes to snoring. As we get older, around 60 percent of men and 40 percent of women snore.

In dentistry, a distinction is made between gingivitis and periodontitis. A surprisingly large proportion of the population suffers from gingivitis, the acute or chronic inflammation of the gums. The cause is usually poor oral hygiene. It can be recognized by the fact that the gums are red and/or swollen due to dilation of the blood vessels. Bleeding gums can also occur, for example when eating a hard apple, brushing teeth or using dental floss. If the gingivitis is not treated in time, periodontitis (also commonly known as periodontal disease) occurs.

Tooth decorations and gemstones, together with bleaching, ensure particularly beautiful teeth. The prerequisite for dental jewelry is healthy tooth structure or an intact filling underneath. After lightly polishing the tooth surface, a transparent composite adhesive is applied to the tooth in question. The desired dental jewelry is then attached to it and then hardened with blue light. The tooth enamel remains intact. The whole procedure is completely painless.

A radiant smile is an expression of vitality and self-confidence. Many adults want straight teeth but shy away from the look of traditional braces. With Dentanova practice we offer you the modern solution: Transparent aligners.

Aligners are wafer-thin, almost invisible plastic aligners that gently move your teeth into the ideal line. They are the perfect choice for everyday work and private life, as they are barely noticeable when speaking and laughing.

Dental hygiene is very important! Unfortunately, even with the best brushing technique and the careful use of dental floss, you cannot always reach all the nooks and crannies. It is precisely in these places that small food particles and saliva particles tend to settle and over time lead to plaque - a lively accumulation of bacteria that secrete acid and cell toxins and promote tooth decay and periodontal disease (the correct name is periodontitis). This is where your dentist's tried and tested dental hygiene comes into play.
In addition to the thorough removal of plaque and tartar, professional teeth cleaning also includes prophylaxis, including teeth straightening and the application of fluoride varnish, so that teeth and gums remain protected from tooth decay long after the visit to the dentist.

Oral surgery is a part of dentistry that involves various surgical interventions in the mouth and jaw. With the latest technology and many years of experience, you can enjoy minimally invasive and extremely gentle treatment in a personal, relaxed atmosphere with Med. Dent. Dana Marinescu and our treatment team. Our range of oral surgery treatments includes implantology, bone reconstruction (bone augmentation), removal of wisdom teeth, root tip resection, separation of lip frenulum, removal of cysts and other therapeutic measures.

A root canal is a dental procedure that is necessary when the tooth nerve is inflamed or dead. The cause of such inflammation can be tooth decay, a broken tooth or trauma. The treatment aims to remove the inflamed or dead dental nerve and thus save the tooth.

Dental fillings are a routine dental procedure. Nowadays plastics and ceramics materials are generally used. About what comes into play in our practice is the CEREC system Using the CEREC system, we can rely on composite ceramic blocks that have improved mechanical properties compared to pure ceramic. Depending on the findings, we always carefully consider which material is best for your tooth and mouth. On the one hand, it depends on which tooth is affected and, on the other hand, how big the hole is, caused by caries, for example. Of course, we also make sure to keep the costs of dental fillings low.

Losing a tooth always means a gap in the teeth and therefore incorrect loading of the remaining teeth, which can ultimately affect the entire periodontium. If several teeth are affected, the food can no longer be chewed sufficiently and is reduced in size, so that even the diet can suffer as some vital substances can no longer be absorbed by the body due to the food being too large. The answer to the question about dentures is therefore simple: Lost and missing teeth should be replaced if possible! The only exceptions are wisdom teeth and teeth that, in rare individual cases, had to be removed by the dentist because the jaw was too narrow.

In order to prevent unwanted grinding of teeth while sleeping, the FOS splint we use takes advantage of the functional properties of the front teeth. Each tooth is connected to the chewing muscles via nerve fibers. If too much pressure is placed on the front teeth when biting, receptors tell the chewing muscles to relax and let go, which is a so-called protective reflex. Our splint takes advantage of exactly this protective reflex and reduces night-time teeth grinding by up to 70 %. Because the bite in the front is blocked by the splint, you can no longer bite or press on the side teeth at night. In this way, unphysiological biting patterns can be “deprogrammed”.

CEREC is the abbreviation for “Chairside Economical Restoration of Esthetic Ceramics“ or “Ceramic REConstruction”. It is a method for restoring tooth chewing surfaces and was originally developed by W. Mörmann at the University of Zurich. It is a highly modern approach in dentistry that has revolutionized the process of restoring teeth. The system enables us as dentists to carry out high-quality ceramic restorations directly in the dental practice and often within a single session.

Mobile dental services make our practice highly flexible. In concrete terms, this means that we can treat you directly on site. This applies in particular to retirement homes, nursing homes and patients in need or with limited mobility, but individual home visits are also possible. We are happy to make an important contribution to our customers' dental care and thus to their quality of life. Our goal is to restore and maintain a healthy oral cavity with reliable teeth and functioning dentures.

For us, the focus is on the person! We will discuss your individual situation in a personal, confidential preliminary discussion and discuss every planned examination and treatment with you in detail so that you can sit back and relax. Are you one of those people who are afraid of drilling? No problem. We simply use the laser and save you from unpleasant drilling noises. We also use intraligamentary anesthesia (ILA), a gentle, modern method of anesthetizing the lower jaw. We have received a lot of positive feedback from our patients about the gentle anesthetic technique used by Ms. Med. Dent. Marinescu. Many do not even notice that an injection has been given!

We use the latest technology to support the body's natural healing processes. A highly concentrated plasma rich in platelets and growth factors is obtained by centrifuging the patient's blood. This enriched plasma is introduced directly into the treatment area, where it accelerates cell regeneration and tissue healing. The controlled release of growth factors stimulates natural healing, which is particularly important in complex dental procedures such as implants, bone augmentation and periodontal therapy.

The laser enables drilling into the tooth without contact, i.e. without the unpleasant vibration and heat generated by a drill. This means that you will experience less or no pain when removing caries. In many cases, anesthesia is not even required and most of the time it is still pain-free. Children and patients who suffer from what is known as "fear of the dentist" or fear of the drill in particular have the option of using the laser as a modern, gentle and low-pain treatment in modern dentistry. In addition, the laser removes caries very selectively from the tooth and leaves healthy tooth substance. As a result, in our practice we can work with the laser in a much more gentle way than with the drill, which of course also benefits you.

Missing teeth not only lead to unsightly gaps in the teeth, but also endanger the bone stability of the jaw. Artificial tooth replacement using dental implants is now the method of choice for replacing teeth lost due to accidents, tooth decay, periodontitis or other causes. Dental implants are placed directly into the bone of the upper or lower jaw. Implants fit perfectly into the existing rows of teeth and make physically and mentally stressful gaps in your teeth disappear. Incidentally, dental implants are at least as stable as natural teeth and sometimes also serve as a supporting tooth for bridges or prostheses.

With sparkling white teeth we are usually only laughed at by the media, but you will soon be able to do that yourself. All you have to do is look in the mirror and... smile! Modern dentistry and dental aesthetics make this possible through teeth whitening. To ensure that the result is the way you want it, we take care of your teeth in advance, remove unwanted discoloration and ensure that the tooth enamel is visibly brightened and your smile is radiant – faster than you think.
