Your journey to fixed teeth in Zagreb.<\/h1>\r\n

For patients from abroad we run the whole process: from an online consultation based on a 3D scan through arrival, accommodation and the procedure to follow-up after you return home. No hidden steps.<\/p>\r\n

\r\n
In brief<\/div>\r\n

The first examination and diagnostics are the foundation of the whole treatment. If you have a recent 3D CBCT scan of both jaws, you can receive an indicative plan and a cost estimate before you arrive. Treatment takes three to four months on average, and accommodation and transfers for patients from abroad are included in the price.<\/p>\r\n

What the journey looks like<\/span>

From first enquiry to a new smile.<\/h2>

We adapt the journey to where you travel from. For patients from Slovenia, who are close to Zagreb, we split treatment into several shorter visits; for patients from more distant countries we combine it into two longer stays.<\/p><\/div>\r\n

\r\n
01<\/div>

First contact and online consultation<\/h3>

Get in touch by phone, email or message. We advise you and set out the options. If you have a recent 3D CBCT scan of both jaws, you receive an indicative treatment plan and a cost estimate before you travel.<\/p><\/div>\r\n

02<\/div>

Arrival, examination and plan<\/h3>

We arrange a pick-up at the airport or station and transport to the clinic. This is followed by the first examination, full diagnostics and the final treatment plan with a quote. If needed, we offer accommodation in the clinic apartment.<\/p><\/div>\r\n

03<\/div>

Procedure under analgosedation<\/h3>

After the digital impression and analysis comes the surgical procedure under sedation, and the next day the fitting of temporary fixed teeth and the first DENTAL SPA treatments. In suitable patients, fixed teeth are in place within 24 hours.<\/p><\/div>\r\n

04<\/div>

Recovery and check-ups<\/h3>

Daily check-ups, DENTAL SPA treatments and wound care follow, and the sutures come out around day 14. The permanent restoration is made after healing, as a rule about three months later.<\/p><\/div>\r\n

05<\/div>

Permanent restoration and fitting<\/h3>

During the second stay we make and fit the permanent restoration (articulation, try-ins, finishing), with a bite check before you travel home.<\/p><\/div>\r\n

06<\/div>

Lifelong monitoring<\/h3>

After treatment you enter a protocol of regular check-ups and professional maintenance of the implant-supported restorations every 6 to 12 months, depending on the indication.<\/p><\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n

Where our patients come from<\/span>

Experience with patients from across Europe and beyond.<\/h2><\/div>\r\n
\r\n

Our patients come from nine countries, most of them from Slovenia. Alongside Croatia, we treat patients from Austria, Germany, the United States, Israel, Bosnia and Herzegovina, the United Kingdom and Italy. We adapt communication and logistics to each patient.<\/p>\r\n

Ortoimplant DENTAL SPA<\/div>\r\n

An online consultation gives an indicative plan and a cost estimate, but we set the final plan and quote only after an examination and full diagnostics at the clinic. That way we avoid surprises during treatment.<\/p>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n

Common questions<\/span>

Travelling from abroad, frequently asked questions.<\/h2><\/div>\r\n
\r\n

Can I get an estimate before I arrive?<\/h3>

Yes. If you have a recent 3D CBCT scan of both jaws, we use it to give you an indicative treatment plan and a cost estimate through a free online consultation. The final plan follows an examination at the clinic.<\/p><\/div>\r\n

How many visits, and how long does it take?<\/h3>

It depends on where you travel from and on the complexity of the case. Treatment takes three to four months on average. For patients from Slovenia we split the journey into several shorter visits, and for patients from more distant countries into two longer stays.<\/p><\/div>\r\n

Are accommodation and transport included?<\/h3>

For patients from abroad we arrange the pick-up and transfers as well as accommodation in the clinic apartment, and these are included in the treatment price. We also help you find flights, trains and buses.<\/p><\/div>\r\n

What languages can we communicate in?<\/h3>

We adapt communication to each patient; we work with patients from nine countries. Every arrangement, the plan and the instructions are explained to you clearly before each step.<\/p><\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\r\n\r\n
