TGIF- Thank God it's Friday

Even how much I like to work at Kreativ Dental, Friday afternoon is always welcome. It’s a great pleasure to see so many new, nice smiles. Some people have finished the last part of the treatment and they are smiling with their new bright, shiny teeth. In the beginning a little bit hesitant, but after a while they are smiling from ear to ear. After many years with bad teeth they have forgotten how   to smile. Others have finished the first or second stage of their treatment, but even they are happy that they have started the treatment.

Friday is the day of saying “good bye” to people you have learned to know during their stay in Budapest. Friendship arises between the patients, who often spend long periods at the same hotel but also between the patients and us; the staff at Kreativ Dental . For us it is important that all patients feel welcome and that we can have a good time together even if it is about dental treatment.

Finally the waiting room is empty and it is a good feeling going home to the family for a nice and relaxing weekend.

Crowns and bridges

Now we can continue to build our construction after finishing the foundation. What can the roots and implants be used for?

The simple answer is crowns, bridges and dentures. We produce crowns in different materials. The cheapest crown is porselain fused to metal  and the more expensive is porselain fused to Zirconium.

The quality is, of course, good on both of them, but a Zirconium crown is nicer because of its light colour. On the front teeth it is also possible to make i.max-crowns which is a full porselain crown.

Implants can even be used as  attachment s for dentures so called „locatordentures”.

If you would like some more information regarding our different treatments you are most welcome to contact your local agent for Kreativ Dental, the name and phone number you will find on this page.

The original parts are the best

After all, the original parts are the best so if we can keep the roots we prefer to do so. The roots are attached to the jawbone and can remain so for a lifetime if no inflammation or fractures occur. If a patient is suffering from periodontitis, tooth loss, she will lose parts of the attachment and maybe also the root. Sometimes, even the nerve inside the tooth becomes inflamed and then a root canal treatment or endodontic treatment, as it is called in dental language, is necessary. At Kreativ Dental we have an Endodontic specialist who comes two days a week and perform the more complicated endodontic treatments.

Finally I can recommend you to read our nice reviews from Irish patients who are booked by our excellent Irish agent Mary Flanagan.

A few words about dental implants

Hi and welcome back to my blog, nice to have you here. I will now write a little bit more specific about the treatments Kreativ Dental performs and what our patients can expect. As I mentioned earlier, our dentists are very good in reconstructing extremely destroyed bites. Rebuilding a bite is a bit like building a house; the foundation must be stable. A good foundation can either be good roots or implants. The implant is a titanium screw which is drilled into the jawbone and therefore it can replace a lost tooth root. Our highly experienced   surgeon Dr. Lajos Patonay performs a large number of implant surgeries each week, and thanks to this routine and skills he can perform ​​the treatments in a quick and painless way under local anesthesia. Please read some reviews about Kreativ Dental and I am sure that you will find some good words about Dr. Patonay.

Weekdays at the dental clinic

In my last post I tried to describe a Monday at Kreativ Dental. What about the rest of the week?

After the patient has received the treatment plan and the treatment plan has been explained for her, she has to make a decision whether she would like to accept the plan or not. Very often modifications are made, because the first treatment plan is always the optimal treatment from the dentists point of view and sometimes it can be to extensive for the patient.

When finally the treatment plan is accepted and signed the puzzle starts. In 5 days a lot of treatment should be performed by different dentists; the surgeon, the periodontist, the endodontist and the main dentist. Normally the patients have more than one appointment per day, and also that the appointments could be changed, that’s why we recommend them to stay in a hotel close to Kreativ Dental. More about our partner hotels in my next post.

My great colleagues

What are the characteristics of my talented Hungarian dental colleagues?

On a Monday morning our waiting room is like a railway station; filled up with waiting people and a buzz of different languages. Monday is the day when dentists must make the most major decisions.

One by one, the new patients enter the dentist chair for examination. A panoramic x-ray is then already taken and displayed on the screen next to the dental chair.

The dentist makes a clinical examination and in a short time, a full treatment plan is presented to the patient. This is of course written in the patient’s native language.

I have never met so experienced dentists as at Kreativ Dental. Creating one after the other complex treatment plan during one day is something very difficult, not many dentists are capable to do that.

Easter at Kreativ Dental

Time flies and it's already Easter. It is unusual for Kreativ Dental to close on national holidays but Easter Monday is one of the exceptions. The reason for why we rarely close is that we need 5 working days to produce prosthetic work and with respect to our patients, we try to always keep open 5 working days a week. But if I should be completely honest; I think a free long weekend is just what the staff at Kreativ Dental needs now.


This is a Swedish tradition; an egg filled with candy, a dream for a dentist.
So hereby, I wish all readers a happy Easter.

I will return soon with more insights into the everyday life of a dentist at Kreativ Dental Budapest.
