We like to save your teeth
Our aim is to save diseased teeth and to protect healthy teeth from disease.
We apply a multidisciplinary approach meaning we coherently work together with dental specialists from other fields to tackle dental problems efficiently and affordably to provide long-lasting results.
Regular check-ups, the early detection of risk factors or tooth damage and preventive measures help maintain dental health.
Precise and thorough diagnostics enable us to detect the existing tooth damage or infection. A timely treatment can prevent further damage and pain.
Your individual needs and schedule are incorporated into the treatment plan.
A minimally invasive treatment strategy using high magnification (a microscope) and advanced techniques prevent unnecessary loss of healthy tooth substance, thus increasing the longevity of treated teeth.

Examination and consultation
Necessary details regarding your dental and medical history will be discussed first.
Following the examination, you will be comprehensively informed about the diagnosis and necessary treatment options. A cost estimate will be provided for the required treatment.
Vital Pulp therapy
Smaller damages to the tooth should be treated timely and in a minimally-invasive manner in order to prevent infection.
Even if the tooth is severely damaged,
it may still be possible to maintain the blood supply (vitality) of the tooth and to keep it free from infection.
Root canal treatment
If the tooth gets infected, root canal treatment becomes necessary in order to keep the tooth in a healthy, functional and aesthetic state.
You may be referred by your dentist for any of the above mentioned treatments.
Tooth ache
Precise diagnostics is needed to determine and treat the cause of acute (short-term) and chronic (long-lasting) dental pain. It is extremely important to identify the differences
between pain of dental and non-dental origin and to provide you with the corresponding treatment options.
Discoloured tooth
In some cases teeth can discolour after a traumatic injury or root canal treatment. In many cases the source of discolouration can be eliminated and treated.
Accidents
Despite traumatic damage to the tooth, such as fractures, loosening and avulsion of a tooth, it may still be possible to treat the tooth in order to keep it in a healthy, functional and aesthetic state.

Together with a sound amount of clinical experience, a board certified specialization in Endodontology and a passion for saving teeth, I am well equipped to protect your dental health.
Endodontology is a branch of dental sciences that focuses on tooth preservation. Mainly the prevention and treatment of infections of the tooth, tooth pulp and the periradicular tissues (around the roots).
Many infections can be avoided by a timely treatment and many infected teeth, that couldn’t be saved in the past, can now be treated and saved as a result of modernized techniques and materials.
With the right amount of care and treatment, your teeth can serve you for a lifetime.
