Facilities
Management
The organization procedures and investigations in our clinic are paper-free with a digital X-Ray, digital photographic-documentation and digital clinical records. This makes the networking much faster and reliable. This Digitalization gives us the advantage of more time to treat and consult the patients.
Digitalized 3-D Planning
Software Our straightforward and outstanding digitalized 3-D Planning Software enables us to performing a specific Implant-Planning with every available Dicom data record and when required to execute and generate a Dental-Navigation Model by using a 3-D template Printing (without the requirement of an additional CT-Scan with an X-Ray template).
Digital- X-Ray machines with reduced Radiation Exposure
We have installed a Digitalized X-Ray Apparatus which allows a much lesser radiation-exposure as compared to the conventional X-Ray machines. It also gives us an excellent photo-quality to help us diagnose better.
Piezo Surgery
We are working with a Piezo Surgery machine from the Company ‘Mectron’. The advantage of Piezo Surgery is that instead of using dental drilling, we make use of Ultrasonic to perform operations. This helps in a better handling of bone tissues especially the delicate and sensitive soft tissue structures, for example nerves, mucosa that can be easily preserved.
QEP® - Certification
Our Clinic is awarded a highly established and a ‘Dekra-Certified’ Quality Management System. “QEP- Qualität und Entwicklung in Praxen” (Quality and Development in Clinics). QEP is the Quality Management System of the National Medical Association (KVB) and respects most importantly the patient needs. It is because of this system that our procedures are more safe and reliable and it gives us the benefit of more time for our patients and their treatment.
DVT - Digital Volume tomography
We use a Veraview X800 DVT from Morita. Thanks to numerous innovations, the image quality was again significantly improved compared to the previous model. In addition to the usual implantological, periodontological and endodontological questions, it can be planned even more precisely. We would be happy to make DVT recordings for your patients to plan your treatment. With our system-open 3D planning software, we can use any existing DICOM data set to create printed surgical templates using 3D scanned patient models (.STL files) without the need for a new DVT with an X-ray template.
Own blood concentrate (PRF- platelet rich fibrin) to support wound healing
To accelerate and improve the healing processes e.g. after tooth extraction and in the context of bone augmentation, we have been using "plateled rich fibrin (PRF)" for many years. PRF is a concentrate from the patient's own blood, which serves as a regeneration source for the healing processes. To prepare the blood concentrate, a small amount of blood is taken from the patient immediately before the procedure. The blood is then centrifuged without the addition of chemicals according to a special protocol. The autologous blood concentrate not only accelerates wound healing, but it can also significantly reduce wound pain. This natural healing method is also used successfully in various aesthetic treatments and in skin surgery.
Intraoral scanner
Our practice has a modern intraoral scanner with which we can create digital models of your jaw. This allows us, for example, to produce drilling templates completely without taking impressions. This is not only more precise, but also much more comfortable, especially for patients who suffer from gag reflex.
Cooperation
Anesthesia
In major procedures, in the treatment children, handicapped and specially-abled patients and also in treating adults with ‘Treatment-Anxiety’, we have the option of treatment under general anesthesia within our clinic. We are working with a Team of specialist Anesthetists from the Ambulant OP-Center in Hildesheim ."
Radiology and Radiotherapy
We have a close collaboration with the Radiology-Clinic ‘Neuradia’ which is located in our building and works with a diverse and modern Imaging System and makes the Images promptly and straightforwardly available. According to the clinical requirement, there is also a possibility of 3-D Imaging done with help of modern machines and equipment, for example Computed Tomography (CT Scan), Digital Volume Tomography (DVT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Also, Ultrasonography and Scintigraphy are made available.
Specialities
Implantology
The lost and extracted teeth can be easily and almost identically replaced with the help of Dental Implants. In some cases, dental implants are the only treatment option available when patients desire a Fixed Dentures and Prostheses. In other cases, dental implants help to improve the stability of removable denture and prostheses. This operation procedure is safe, reliable and has proven its reliability over the last decades. The treatment planning of the Implant-based Prosthesis is carried out here in our clinic with thorough discussions with the treating surgeon. The requirement for placement of successful dental implants is the availability of adequate amount of bone-structure. We evaluate every individual situation with the help of clinical and radiographic diagnostics. Hereby the operative (and also financial) effort-required and expenditure can be estimated.
Nowadays we have various procedures and techniques available for Bone Augmentation, if there is a lack of bone. In the most cases new technics help us to prevent Bone-removal from the pelvis(hip). While using the bone available from the jaw-ridge, the procedure is carried out by removal of the bone-transplant with our Piezo Surgery machine without drilling and with protection of the soft tissue structures. Also, the bone-ridge preparation for an implant can be done with the help of Piezo Surgery machine.
Today even difficult situations (for example very small bone-ridge, multiple missing teeth) can be analyzed with the help of Three-dimensional Imaging. The data record not only helps us to analyze the situation but also enables us to prepare an operation-model which accommodates a reliable ‘Virtual-Planning’ to help navigate a smooth surgery. A special feature is that our ‘Planning-software’ does not require a radiographic-model which in turn helps to avoid another DVT or CT Scan.
For your questions about Dental Implants we are happy to make a consultation appointment with you.
Periodontal Surgery
Parodontitis therapy: Periodontitis is a bacterial infection of the gums (Gingiva). Gums help to hold the teeth stably within the bone structure. This bacterial infection and inflammation leads to reduction and slow destruction of the jaw-bone (bone ridge) and can also lead to loosening and eventually loss of teeth. The goal of a periodontal therapy measure is to make and establish an infection-free tooth-apparatus, to stop the spread of the disease and to prevent tooth-loss. Along with that, modern therapies are now available that help in the regeneration of the lost soft and hard tissue structures.
Esthetic Plastic Surgery: There are many causes for the recession of gums which lead to esthetic impairment of the gums. This so-called Recession of gums can be covered up surgically with the help of small local plastic Flap-surgeries and also mucosal and connective tissue Transplants.
Oral-, Maxillo-facial surgery
The Oral and Maxillo-facial Surgery serves as an interface between Human and Dental-medicine and deals with the knowledge, prevention and treatment of diseases, injuries, fractures and malformations of teeth, the oral cavity, the jaws and the face. These include the following:
- tooth-conservation treatment of the roots (Apicectomy)
- extraction of the teeth that cannot be restored (for example decayed teeth, maligned teeth)
- treatment of infections and cysts
- oral-mucosal diseases and tumors
- sinus surgery
- salivary gland disorders
- orthodontic surgery
- surgery measure to increase to stability of dentures
- management and treatment of Temporomandibular Joint disorders

Esthetic and Plastic surgery
In our clinic, we provide Plastic-esthetic surgery. Along with the therapy of diseases such as removal of benign and malignant skin changes. Also, reconstruction surgeries such as- Scar-correction, Management of facial-malformations and malformations as a result of injuries. This deals especially with local Skin flaps. This procedure enables the esthetic reconstruction (for example after the removal of malignant tumors) and in most cases, can be carried out under local anesthesia such as Nose and Ear defect reconstruction.
The treatment of wrinkles on face is also a part of esthetic surgery. Alongside the pure surgical procedures, small methods (Botulinum Toxin, Hyaluronic acid) can provide astounding and beautiful effects. Hyperhydrosis Therapy (Therapy against extreme sweating) also comes along under esthetic and plastic surgery. This therapy is very versatile. We are happy to make an appointment with you to discuss the options regards treatment procedures and to clear out your questions.

Pre-medication is suitable for Patients with light Treatment-anxiety or for Patients who want to be a little relaxed during the operation.
Patients with severe Treatment-anxiety can be treated with the help of intravenous Sedation, in which the patient goes into a ‘Sleep-like’ state and helps patients become relaxed and free of anxiety. The patients assume that they are sleeping but can really respond and breath by themselves in Sedation. Treatment of children, handicapped and specially-abled patients and also adults with very pronounced Treatment-anxiety and fear can be done under General Anesthesia with the help of our very efficient Team of Anesthetists.
