This covers the entire spectrum of aesthetic dentistry, from the color and shape of the teeth to the shape and volume of the gums. The patient's wishes are fulfilled as far as medically possible. The treatment spectrum ranges from minor filling corrections and bite corrections to a complete new smile design, which is intended to be aesthetically pleasing but also functional in the long term. However, clear and open communication with the patient is important here in order to filter out what is important to him/her and to create solutions together in order to adjust expectations according to the possible therapy. As you know, aesthetics are often in the eye of the beholder.

It is a multifactorial process that starts with the patient's wishes, continues with diagnostics and treatment planning and ends with the selection of materials in close cooperation with our dental laboratories. We use the most modern methods currently available on the market for this purpose. For example, digital X-ray and 3D imaging, a visual preview of the future dental restoration produced in the laboratory, the latest adhesive dental materials and the measurement of temporomandibular joint movement using the Bluefox freecorder. The visualization has a particular advantage for the patient, as it gives him/her a clear idea of the forthcoming result. This is done in collaboration with our laboratories, using wax and mock-ups that can be presented to the patient in advance. The patient has the opportunity to see the future result in advance. Changes can be discussed and then implemented during the actual treatment.

Clearly, the daily human contact with the patients, the diversity of the cases, as every case and every patient is unique. I particularly like it when I can contribute to improving the patient's quality of life. Starting with the elimination of pain and restoration of chewing function through to aesthetics. All of this fulfills me as a dentist and the trust and gratitude I receive from my patients spurs me on to improve every day.

Even as a child, I had an immense interest in medicine and practical activities, even when I was playing with a toy doctor's case. This was influenced by our family dentist at the time, who explained every step to me before treatments even as a child. For me, dentistry combines the scientific with the practical. Years later, after completing my classical ballet training, I did an internship in a dental laboratory to find out whether I would enjoy a career in dentistry and whether I had the necessary practical skills. This confirmed my decision.

Normal local anesthesia, oral sedation (sedative medication) and general anesthesia (sleep anesthesia).

Fast and painless treatment.

In the case of general anesthesia for children, a detailed preliminary discussion is held with the parents in which all planned treatments are discussed. The preparation for general anesthesia is carried out by our experienced anesthetist in consultation with the parents.

Education is the A-O. It is very important to me to educate the parents about the importance of dental care and nutritional guidance, to point out possible mistakes and to accompany the parents in this regard in order to spare the child further anesthetic treatments in the future.

It is a less painful, more time-saving alternative for the patient.

Since root canal treatment is known to be a somewhat more complex treatment, machine preparation offers a faster and uncomplicated solution for the patient.
