Dental Holiday (Piestany Dental Clinic) (50)
Dental Clinic, Slovakia

I went on a recommendation and was not disappointed. From arrival at the airport to completion of treatment a thoroughly professional
treatment. A very honest appraisal and presentation of dental needs and options available and fully costed before you commit.

I needed implants on my lower jaw, due to other medical conditions, which damaged my gums. I also decided to have 4 crowns on the upper
teeth, not only as the enamel was wearing away, but so that my front teeth matched with each other. I visited the Clinic three times in
total, between April 2011 and Oct 2011, and was very impressed by the service I received, not only before I arrived, but whilst in
Piestany too. The Staff were very helpful and friendly, and went out of their way to make you feel comfortable and special. They
organised accommodation and transport, which was a huge relief. I would recommend using this clinic to ANYBODY looking for any major
dental work, as not only because of the above, but because of the savings compared to UK dentists!

From the very first email...I new I was in good hands. Daniel, Phil and superb dental surgeon Marek ...are a formidable and
efficient team all working as one to make the visit and treatment as excellent as it truly is... A smooth pain free
treatment... all done and finished over one 5 day visit (in my case). This group sorted every detail and responded at every
opportunity to make me feel as comfortable as possible:-D I cannot stop smiling and I show off my new Hollywood look with
a great deal of confidence knowing it all looks completely natural and not at all detectable as bridge work. Dr Marek was
paying full attention at every step during my time in the chair...and I was totally relaxed at all times... I am very very
happy and totally pleased with my smile A wonderful result that saved me around £4,000 GBP (based on UK prices) in closing
may I say without any doubt: My Dental Holiday was an all round well worth-while experience! Kindest regards. John Wright

I travelled to Dental Holiday in early August and was greeted at the airport by Philip before transferring straight to the clinic. I was
welcomed with smiles by all the employees before having a consultation with Marek. I advised my problems and Marek was very helpful in
coming up with a solution that would create the smile I wanted as well as to the cost I had budgeted. After agreeing in having 10
veneers and 4 root canals, I was bought back for my dental treatment that day and did not experience one ounce of pain. Marek and his
assistant would always make sure I was comfortable and feeling no pain. I have waited many years to have my teeth done and like many
people, been to UK dentistry’s for quotes which have always been out of my price range. The work I had done at Dental Holiday was near
a 1/3 of the cost in the UK and the care was second to none. I went by myself and stayed in Piestany for 4 days and felt safe and a
phone call away from the dentist should I have needed anything. Amazing experience and could not be happier with the results.

In August 2010 I had to visit my dentist in the UK as I was having problems with my lower 7th molar. I was told I needed root canal
treatment but because of the position of the tooth had to see a specialist which would cost me £600 for the privalige, not to
mention the £200 for the crown. I went away to think about it as £800 was a lot of money to spend on one tooth
especially as there was no guarantee that the tooth would be saved. I had also lost three molars on the other side of my mouth so it was
extremely important to me that I was making the right decision. When talking to a work colleague about my dilemma she suggested looking
at Dental Holiday in Slovakia as she had researched it a few years earlier and two of her family members had received treatment and were
happy with the outcome. I searched the internet and found the website extremely informative. I sent an e-mail and received a friendly
quick response from Daniel with a estimate of costs for three alternative treatments, including dental implants. Once I had made the
decision to take the trip out everything was very easy and I booked the flights within one week. I could have saved quite a bit of money
if I could have planned it in advance but as I was in pain I had no choice. All correspondence I received was clear and concise and
Phil was there to meet me and my mother at the airport to take us to our accomodation which was arranged by the clinic. We were given a
mobile phone to use during our stay and accomodation was reasonable. When we arrived at the clinic, it was spotless and modern. The
staff were extremely friendly and spoke excellent english which immediately put us at ease. Dr Marek was excellent and the consulation
was quick and treatment was explained. I was given some time to think about the treatment option I wanted to take over a leisurely cup
of tea and the treatment and once I had decided treatment started almost immediately. I had a root canal and in the afternoon I went
back to have the first procedure for two implants and a bridge. I stayed over an visited the clinic the following day for a check
up. On my return, I booked my flights in advance and only paid £50 return for both trips. I went back in December to finish off
my treatment (and a nice white filling on another tooth). All in all I am very very happy with my new teeth and now getting used to
eating on both sides. I would have no hesitation in recommending anyone to the clinic in fact, my mum is going back to have treatment
in the spring. Dr Marek and the team are fantastic

I have had such bad teeth due to accident 20 years ago that i had to hide them with my mustache. One of my collegues at work did a lot
research and found the cheapest and legal dental practice abroad.cut storry short had his teeth done and when he told me and showed me
his teeth and told me about his treatment. Without a doubt, I had a word with my family and got the money together and took off to
slovakia. The reason for diamond smile dentist is that they are worth every penny in all aspect of work done on me and the hospitality
given.

Having had years and years of problems with my teeth including my annual Christmas abscess I was very interested when a friend told me
about the clinic in Bratislava. I decided to give it a try as the airfares via Ryan air were very cheap and quite frankly I had nothing
to lose. A panoramic xray was done immediately and Dr Marek noted that my front five teeth (there should have been six) were very
strange and mal formed and he assured me that he would be able to fix this. Also it was noted that my bite was not right as my front
upper and lower teeth met when in fact that top teeth should have been slighter over the bottom teeth. Apart from that I needed 4
implants where I had lost teeth due to abscesses 6 root canals three fillings. Dr Marek advised me up front what the cost to repair my
teeth would be and I was happy with the price. As a consequence I have had all my upper teeth capped and a tooth was somehow included to
make my front five teeth become six and I have two bottom and two upper implants. The only thing that I have to get used to now is not
holding my hand in front of my mouth when smiling and having photos taken as I have spent the last 40 years doing just that! The clinic
sends a driver who speaks English to the airport to pick you up and they arrange for accommodation for you at an extremely reasonable
price. Everyone in the Clinic speaks English and the atmosphere is very congenial in the clinic. My husband needs fillings and his front
teeth looked at and I have already booked his flight to see Dr Marek.

A terrific service from the moment that you are collected from the airport (thanks phil) until you are returned after treatment,
everything is taken care of. The clinic is first class and the dental treatment I received far outweighs anything that I have
experienced from the NHS at home. All the staff are very professional and helpful. There are no hidden extras or costs. Everything you
see on the web page is exactly how it is. Dont be afraid, pay them a visit and get a great smile from Dr Marek for a lot less than you
could at home.

I initially went to the clinic to accompany my friend, First impressions were great; picked up at the airport by Phil who was open and
friendly. Arrived at the clinic to be greeted by Monika on reception, she is really professional with a very caring attitude; looking
after all our needs and makes a great cup of tea. She also organised the accommodation. Daniel Shaw came out to say hello and make sure
we were settled. We then had our consultation with Dr Marik who is the best dentist I have every visited. Very professional and skilled.
Puts you at ease which gives you confidence, asks what you want, why your there, so NO pressure. X-rays are taken and he guides you
through your options. We had three visits, well spaced out and convenient to us. The flights can be really cheap if you book in advance
and select dates which avoid Airport Tax The area - Piestany is a sleepy Spa Town, in-between appointments you can relax and have a
massage or go to the mud/mineral baths (very cheap) Food and drink is very cheap, you can get a good meal with wine & drinks for 8/10
euros per person. I am returning in January to accompany another friend but will take the opportunity to see Barbara the hygenist who
is brilliant. The whole team are very experienced and professional, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to my family and
friends. Apart from the money you save; 4 times cheaper than UK!!!!
