I think it's fair to leave my review here as I used this website as
part of my own research before making a decision.
Before I visited Dr Teleshman (organised through Praga Medica) I hadn't visited a
dentist for around 30 years.
First, I was scared of dentists due to poor dentistry experiences when I was younger. This fear then
turned to embarrassment which, in turn, became shame at the state I had allowed my teeth to get into.
I had a number of broken teeth
and had also lost some fillings (fortunately mainly at the back so my front teeth looked OK on the whole).
I decided I needed to do
something or risk losing all my teeth so I considered options and, after reading many reviews, decided to visit Dr Teleshman in Prague.
What a great decision. I visited Prague 3 times in 12 month, spending 5 days with Dr T in total. During that time I had 3 root canal
treatments, 3 extractions, 3 ceramic inlays and 7 crowns fitted. I also had a couple of black amalgam fillings replaced with white
fillings and, of course, I had my teeth cleaned. Treatment was a great success. I now have a far more confident smile with natural
looking teeth, not bright white and fake looking, although I'm sure that can be done if it's what you want. Also, I no longer suffer
toothache, which had previously been excruciating at times. I have completely lost my fear of dentists - Dr T at least - believe it or
not, I felt no pain throughout my treatments, although my jaw did ache from keeping my mouth open so long!
One of the key factors
affecting my decision was the excellent communication with Praga Medica in English - I needed to be able to express myself and to be
understood. When I first visited Dr Teleshman I also found his English excellent, to a very advanced level, and he was able to explain
the treatments and available options in detail.
I don't have much experience of dentists but I think Dr Teleshman must be a master
for what he achieved for me. If you are thinking about visiting a dentist in Prague I would say don't hesitate to contact Praga Medica,
they can even arrange airport pickup and hotel accommodation for you. I'm a pretty independent traveller so I didn't need this option
but it may be helpful for you to know. Also, Prague is a beautiful city and worth visiting if you have never been as I had not
previously.
Thank you to Dr Teleshman, all the staff at Praga Medica and to beautiful Maria for looking after me and making me feel
so welcome and comfortable. A very good experience all round.....considering what it was!
Note: the only reason I gave 4 stars for
patient communication rather than 5 was that the Praga Medica representative I was liaising with left the company between my visits and
failed to pass on all my requests. I'm sure that's rare.
