We've collected the questions our patients ask us every day. If you don't find the answer you're looking for, call or write us: we're here to help.
📋First Visit & Estimates
You can book by calling us at 0884 588631 or 351 1067718 (WhatsApp available), or by filling out the contact form on our website. We respond within 24 hours. The first visit includes a complete clinical evaluation and, when necessary, diagnostic X-rays.
On average 30–45 minutes. This allows us to listen to your needs, examine your clinical situation carefully, take any necessary X-rays, and explain the available treatment options without rushing.
The written detailed estimate is included in your first visit. Before proceeding with any therapy, you'll always receive a clear treatment plan with all costs indicated — no surprises.
Absolutely yes. Many of our patients come from Foggia, Cerignola, Monte Sant'Angelo and surrounding areas. We can organize your visit to concentrate diagnosis, X-rays, and, when possible, the start of treatment on the same day.
🦷Implantology
No. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and most patients report discomfort similar to a tooth extraction, manageable with common pain relievers. In the following days there may be slight swelling, which resolves in a few days. We use minimally invasive techniques (including flapless technique, without incisions) that further reduce post-operative discomfort. Discover how we work in implantology →
Titanium implants are considered a permanent solution: with good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, they last a lifetime. The prosthetic crown (the visible part) typically lasts 15–20 years, depending on wear and daily care. Read our article: how long does a dental implant really last? →
In most cases yes. Thanks to guided bone regeneration (GBR) techniques and mini-implants, we can treat situations with limited bone volume. The volumetric CBCT (3D X-ray) we perform during diagnosis allows us to accurately assess your situation and plan the procedure safely.
Immediate load is a technique that allows a temporary fixed prosthesis to be placed immediately after implant insertion. In many cases you can actually leave the clinic with fixed teeth the same day as the procedure. Not all cases are suitable for immediate load: we evaluate based on bone quality and number of implants.
The cost of an implant varies based on the complexity of the case, the number of implants needed, and the type of prosthesis. We always provide a written detailed estimate after the diagnostic visit. We also offer the option to finance treatment to make care accessible to everyone.
All-on-4 is an implant technique that allows rehabilitation of an entire arch (all teeth) with just 4 strategically inclined implants. It's indicated for those who have lost all teeth or have unrecoverable teeth. The main advantage is the possibility of having fixed teeth in just a few sessions, often with immediate load. In our studio we perform this technique with complete digital planning. Learn more about implantology →
😁Orthodontics
Yes, for the great majority of cases. Latest generation aligners allow correction of crowding, gaps, malocclusions, and position anomalies with results comparable to fixed appliances. The key is wearing them for the prescribed number of hours (usually 20–22 hours per day). Very complex cases might require specific evaluation. Read: fixed appliance or aligners, which to choose? →
Even before age 6! Interceptive orthodontics in children can prevent much more serious problems in adulthood. For adults there's no age limit: we successfully treat patients from age 6 to 70. The earlier we intervene, the simpler and faster the treatment.
Duration varies greatly depending on the starting situation. For simple cases with aligners, 6–12 months; for moderate cases with fixed appliance 18–24 months; for complex cases up to 36 months. During your orthodontic consultation we evaluate your specific situation and provide a realistic estimate.
Yes, but there are many alternatives. In addition to invisible aligners, we offer ceramic brackets the same color as your teeth, practically invisible up close. In some cases it's possible to place brackets on the inside of teeth (lingual orthodontics). During your consultation we'll find the solution best suited to your lifestyle.

✨Cosmetic Dentistry
No, if done correctly. Professional whitening that we perform in the studio uses CE-certified products at controlled concentrations, applied by professionals. Unlike DIY kits sold online, in-office treatment is safe, effective, and monitored. Some people may experience slight temporary sensitivity, which resolves in 24–48 hours. Read our complete guide to teeth whitening →
Professional in-office whitening is generally completed in 1–2 sessions of about one hour each. Results are visible immediately. We can also create custom trays for home maintenance in the following months.
High-quality ceramic veneers last an average of 15–20 years with proper oral hygiene and regular check-ups. They are stain-resistant (coffee, wine, smoking) and maintain their color over time. Avoid behaviors that stress them excessively, such as biting hard objects. Discover all cosmetic dentistry treatments →
It's a technology that allows us to show you a preview of your new smile before we even begin treatment. Using photos and dedicated software, we digitally design the ideal proportions of your teeth in relation to your face. You'll see and approve the result — modify it if necessary — before we proceed.
🪥Hygiene, Prevention & Visits
For most people, one professional cleaning every 6 months is sufficient. For patients with a tendency toward tartar buildup, diabetes, smoking, or periodontal disease, we recommend every 3–4 months. Professional cleaning removes tartar that your toothbrush can't eliminate, preventing cavities and gum disease. Read: why professional cleaning every 6 months? →
Accumulated tartar irritates the gums causing gingivitis, which if untreated evolves into periodontitis — an infection that destroys the bone supporting your teeth. Periodontitis is the leading cause of tooth loss in adults and has been shown to be linked to systemic diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Discover our hygiene and prevention program →
Fear of the dentist is very common and we take it very seriously. Our approach is based on communication: we explain each step before doing it, never start until the patient is ready, and use atraumatic anesthesia techniques to eliminate pain. For more significant anxiety cases, we evaluate specific solutions together.
From the first year of life, or when the first tooth appears. The first pediatric visit is a moment of familiarity and habit — not fear. The earlier children get used to the dental environment, the fewer problems they'll have as adults. We also perform fissure sealings and fluoride prophylaxis to protect the teeth of younger patients.
💳Payments & Organization
Yes. We know that some dental care represents a significant investment, and we want it to be accessible to everyone. We offer personalized payment plans and work with certified financing companies to finance treatment interest-free. Ask us for details directly in the studio.
We accept cash, debit cards, credit cards, and bank transfers. For installment treatments we work with partner financing companies with quick and simple procedures.
Yes. In Italy dental expenses are deductible at 19% from your personal income tax. We issue regular invoices for all services. Simply keep the receipts and indicate them in your tax return. We recommend consulting with your accountant for specific details.
We're open Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 12:30 PM and 3:30 PM to 8:00 PM. For emergencies (acute pain, dental trauma, abscess) call us directly at 351 1067718 — we always try to find space on the same day for emergencies.
