Dentists in Poland
Save yourself up to 70% on cosmetic dentistry in Poland
 I found the perfect dentist and saved a fortune. Thank you RevaHealth.com Poland is one of Europe's fastest growing dental tourism destinations. Prices are among the lowest you will find in the EU, with Polish dentists charging between 40% and 70% less than many of their European counterparts. A porcelain crown for example, which costs roughly £500 in the UK, is available in Poland for around €100. Not surprising then, that over 3 thousand medical tourists arrived in Poland from the United Kingdom in 2007.
Our three most popular dental clinics are:

Dentists in Poland - Additional Information
Organizations
All Polish dentists are registered with the Polish Chamber of Physicians and Dentists. The chamber governs both dentisty and the larger medical field. Its duties include providing information for dentists and patients, supervison of clinical conduct and drafting of ethical standards. 23 regional divisions of the chamber apply its principles at local level.
The Polish Dental Association is the professional representative body for dentists in Poland. it is a full member of the European Dental Association. The Association promotes high standards in dentistry to its members. The association organizes continuing education courses. Membership is voluntary.
Dental Ethics
All Polish dentists must try to uphold their ethical code (agreed upon in 1993). There is additionally a European code of ethics that is supported by Polish dental organizations.
Both codes outline the duty to care of a dentist: That the patient's health should be foremost; that costs should be made clear as soon as a treatment course is outlined; that no unneccesary work should be carried out; that the dentist must respond to complaints and attempt to resolve the situation. A dentist who fails to comply to these ethical guidelines is subject to censure, suppension or removal of their licence to practice. Details of both codes are provided in the resources section below.
Complaints
Patients may address complaints to the Polish Chamber of Physicians and Dentists. The make up of the complaints committees depends on the nature of the complaint and a dental complaint may be judged by a panel of dentists or by a group of independant advisors. The Chamber has a number of options open to it, including removing a dentist's right to practice.
Complaints may also be handled through the normal law courts.
Data Protection
Polish dentists must respect patient confidentiality. Data must be stored in paper form but may be backed up by electronic means.

Reviews: Dental World - Mexico
I have returned for another treatment and a root canal. I was referred to a nearby dentist for the root canal and found him to be excellent also. I got the root canal, post and crown all done in one day at a price that nbeat the US dentists by a long shot. I am returning to Dental World at my first opportunity to have one more tooth taken care of. I love this dentist and his staff. Tim Deegan

Straight teeth are not just a pretty smile; well-aligned teeth also reduce the risk of periodontitis. "Straightened" teeth are easier to clean and protect from decay, so straight teeth give a beautiful and healthy smile!Anyone can have orthodontic treatment, whatever their age - it is not just for children. There are two types of brace: removable and permanent. Treatment with removable braces:Principally recommended for children between the ages of 4 and 12, before all the permanent teeth are in place. The braces should be worn for at least 4 to 6 hours daily and also at night. Success depends on the child's willingness to wear the braces for the designated period. Treatment with permanent braces:Recommended for both children and adults. The main advantage of this system is that the braces are fixed to the teeth for the treatment period (using special glues), with the result that the braces work 24 hours a day. This also means that the teeth and braces must be cleaned thoroughly after every meal and before going to sleep. A further recommendation is professional cleaning by a dentist. Hard or sticky foods should be avoided, since they could damage the braces.
full-ceramic telescopic crowns / bridgesFiness/Degu-DentEmpress I and IIZirconium,adhesive bridges
Ceramic crowns:If you've had a lot of fillings or an injury of some kind which makes veneers impossible, a range of ceramic crowns can be used, such as: metal-free, zirconium ceramic, ceramic fused to metal, or gold Metal-free crowns:These are made of low-melting porcelain and have the nicest appearance since they most closely resemble the natural tooth colour and, unlike crowns on metal, will not be visible near the gum line as the gum recedes with age. Their life-span is similar to that of natural teeth. They are best for people with sensitivity to metals since they are non-allergenic. Zirconium ceramic crowns:This is the latest computer-supported system in metal-free zirconium ceramic. Zirconium is extremely hard and durable, and incomparable with other materials. It is white and translucent, unlike classic porcelain, but its main advantages are its biocompatibility (it is non-toxic and your body will not reject the material), its low temperature conductivity, tightness and colour fastness. As a result, it is an excellent material for cosmetic dental procedures. Crowns on metal:The ceramic is fused onto a metal base and is a tried and tested material for this type of procedure, setting the standard for all subsequent developments in the field. Since the metal construction is opaque, it makes the translucency of the natural teeth difficult to replicate. There is also the risk of metal allergy (to nickel or chrome). This problem can be avoided by using gold as

Advantages of implants:they are by far the most natural way to rebuild a tooth, replacing the root itself, while the prosthetic reconstruction replaces the crown of the tooth; excellent appearance and function, a natural smile and comfortable chewing, no need to file down the neighbouring teeth, much improved comfort over traditional dentures and fewer associated problems, increased self-esteem and psychological well-being Procedure:- diagnosis and scheme of work, - surgical phase: under local anaesthetic, the titanium implant is inserted precisely, - prosthetic phase: tooth reconstruction Treatment with implants is preceded by a comprehensive diagnostic process:- taking the patient's medical history, - assessing impressions of the teeth and evaluation of the contact between the lower and upper teeth, - digital X-rays. These procedures allow the dentist to make the right choice of implant system. The implants are inserted under local anaesthetic and so the procedure is totally pain free. After the healing period is over (3 months for the lower jaw and 6 months for the upper jaw), the reconstruction process can begin.New at the clinic:Instant implants on the front teeth, allowing a lost tooth to be replacedGuarantee:Implant treatment done on the basis of a professional diagnosis and by skilled surgeons will result in many years' use right from the moment of implantation.

Endodontics is the branch of dentistry dealing with the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the tooth pulp and the tissues surrounding it (root canal therapy and surgery). Endodontic treatment aims to: -preserve the tooth pulp where possible by covering it, directly or indirectly -preserve the tooth with irreversible infection or dead pulp -preserve the tooth with surrounding tissue infection, which is the result of long term infection of the tooth pulp or previous, ineffective, root canal treatment. The tooth pulp, commonly known as the nerve, is principally composed of nerve tissue, blood and lymphatic vessels, and is found in what can sometimes be a very complicated system of root canals and chambers in the inside of the tooth crown.Root canal treatment becomes necessary when the pulp is irreversibly infected, most usually as a result of tooth decay or the crown having broken due to injury. Treatment involves removing the infected pulp and bacteria from the chambers and canals in the tooth. Infected pulp can lead to the surrounding tissues also becoming infected, with the risk of other body parts becoming affected, such as the heart, joints or kidneys. It is quite common for symptoms of some general conditions to be reduced or even disappear entirely once a diseased tooth has been treated.
Where there is deep discolouration following a course of antibiotics, tooth attrition and high enamel deficiency, the teeth may have to be corrected prosthetically. The first way is with ceramic veneers. This requires a small amount of the front surface of the tooth (the enamel) to be removed, which, while it sounds a little drastic, is much less invasive for the tooth tissue than preparation for a full crown. The veneers are bonded to your teeth using a special resin. If you take good care of your teeth, ceramic veneers will give you many years of an improved, whiter, smile.
Whitening
US$329 ~ US$493

This is either done on individual teeth or on groups of teeth. Dead teeth (following root canal work and an X-ray check) can be whitened by inserting a bleaching agent into the tooth chamber for several days. The treatment can be repeated several times, without side effects, until the desired result is achieved.To whiten groups of teeth, carbomide peroxide at 10 - 16% is used. You receive a special mouth guard to take home along with the bleaching agent, and then applies it yourself. Using this method will result in the obvious lightening of most mild and medium discolouration. Where discolouration is more severe (e.g. following a course of antibiotics), treatment may be lengthened or a different method may be preferable (the dentist will discuss with you all treatment options). After bleaching, the teeth permanently remain lighter, although the colour may be 'refreshed' on a subsequent visit to the dentist. Before starting treatment, the teeth should be thoroughly cleaned to remove all signs of plaque or tartar, any loose fillings in the side teeth should be replaced and any tooth decay should be dealt with. Any fillings in the front teeth should be changed after the bleaching, since the colour of composite material is not affected. Side effects may include temporary sensitivity in the teeth, especially to cold.
