Dental Implants Poland

The consultation went well. Lovely dentist. I am from the UK and the dentist spoke very good English. I felt that he understood my dental problems and tried to present a good plan for going forward. I would be confident in his abilities.

I live in the UK but was born in Poland. In 2017 I decided to replace a tooth, that cracked and had to be removed, with an implant. I did lots of research, including local practices. I found that an implant would not qualify as an NHS treatment and privately it would have cost me approx £2,700 - £3,000. I decided to look more widely and found several places in Poland (seemed convenient as I speak polish, so thought communication would be easier, but I needn't have worried). Anyway, I chose Project Usmiech because I fancied a few days of sightseeing in Gdansk. The practice seemed modern, staff professional and friendly, the mix of the folk in the waiting room definitely international. Staff also spoke English/German and some other languages. The implant cost roughly 1/3rd of what my dentist in the UK would charge. I flew home on the day the implant was put in, and never had any issues with it (but it is important to keep good hygiene, incl interdental brushing). So, after this experience, the following summer, I returned to have some crowns replaced. I wanted a natural look (let's face it, no-one wants it to be known your teeth are not your own). I went for custom made crowns (higher price bracket but still the same price as cheap crowns in the UK), matching normal bone/tooth colour. They were hand-finished, I even had the shade adjusted exactly to my liking as I waited! I am super happy with my new smile. The dentist suggested some cosmetic improvements to the appearance, eg my teeth are quite square so he suggested how we might make them look subtly longer than wider by shaving off a bit if the gum. I was apprehensive, worrying about healing, the dentist explained the pros and cons, there was no pressure. I decided against it at first, then changed my mind (and I'm glad I did), the dentist happily accommodated my change of decision. The final thing I need to mention, both times I had a 360 scan of my jaw. One of them picked up that I had a root canal issue in an unrelated tooth. I asked for the pic of the scan to be emailed to me and I sent it to my NHS dentist, who was quite impressed that this was picked up, despite the treatment being carried out on entirely different tooth and the root canal being very faint on the image. They did their own local x-ray which confirmed it. I was under no pressure to do the root canal in Poland. I only did it back in the UK as this treatment was covered by NHS and as I had no pain, I thought it could wait a few months. I also am glad I picked Gdansk for sightseeing. Being Polish, I visited some museums that helped me to (re)learn Polish history (as a child growing up in a communist country full of propaganda (yes, misinformation and fake news exited then too), I did not understand really the Solidarity movement or knew much about the 2nd world war). And as a bonus, during my second visit in early June 2018, there was a heatwave so I ended up exploring the local seaside and beaches - fabulous. So, in summary, five stars for the dentist and five stars for Gdansk. Needless to say, highly recommended.

Had a loose front tooth with no long-term solutions presented by UK NHS. Fed up with constant referrals and short dental appointments that offer no care. Found this clinic and they promptly answered my email and pictures in full by the chief dentist/owner Dr. Marek. Communication over emails and phone were exceptional. They were kind, calm and patient with me. Removed the tooth and created a bridge using the removed tooth so it looked natural and fit right back in with some clearance for cleaning at the bottom. This in itself is a long-term solution and was never proposed in the UK. I wanted something even better again so my teeth was 3D scanned for free and Invisalign solution modeled there and then to see if that was something else I wanted. The invisalign quote was far cheaper than what I saw on UK websites and in some cases half the price. I did have panoramic x-rays done along with a multitude of other things in addition and they were reasonable and cheaper than other Polish dentists in this area. I'm hoping if the bone under the removed tooth grows back sufficiently, I can get these braces and it will give me my natural smile back. I may look even better than what I had in the first place. Highly recommended and well worth a visit. Miles better than UK competitively priced even with the flight and hotel. And that is no exaggeration. Immaculate. Very professional and clean clinic. Felt very homely. The treatment rooms are exceptionally clean, modern and constantly wiped down. There seems to be clientele from all over the world who have traveled to this clinic. Every question I asked was considered and answered calmly and in full. I literally spent over an hour asking questions and they sat there and answered them all without frustration or rudeness. You really wouldn't get that in the UK in between your busy 15 min slots. The service, equipment and patience far exceed western Europe. My partner has started using this practice. It is well worth it if you're willing to jump on a quick flight and soak up some Polish culture in the interim.
