Lin Clinic offers all essential dental services in the areas of prevention and oral hygiene, conservative dentistry, endodontics, oral surgery, implantology, as well as paediatric dentistry.
OUR SERVICES:
Prevention and proper oral hygiene play a key role in dental care. At Lin Clinic we make sure your teeth keep their healthy appearance for as long as possible. In addition to a range of hygiene procedures such as tartar removal (scaling), air polishing (sandblasting) and fluoride treatment, we also place great emphasis on educating patients about proper oral care. Keep in mind that oral hygiene is strongly affected by lifestyle factors such as smoking and frequent consumption of coffee, tea or red wine.
Proper dental prevention not only protects against diseases of the teeth and gums, but also strengthens them and increases their resistance. Applied regularly, it also saves the time and money that would otherwise be spent on dental treatment.
Conservative dentistry deals primarily with the treatment of tooth decay (caries). Caries — the most common disease in the world — is a bacterial condition involving the demineralisation and breakdown of the hard tissues of the tooth. For the sake of our health, we should have regular dental check-ups.
Root canal treatment makes it possible to cure an aching tooth and avoid extraction. The treatment consists in removing bacteria from the root of the tooth. When bacteria reach the pulp — the nerve of the tooth — they often cause severe pain. During root canal treatment, the dentist removes the infected nerve, fills the canal and rebuilds the crown of the tooth.
The most common surgical procedure is undoubtedly tooth extraction. Extraction means removing teeth that cannot be saved through conservative treatment. Some teeth — in particular impacted wisdom teeth, broken or unerupted teeth — are removed for orthodontic or prosthetic reasons.
In surgical treatment, choosing the optimal treatment method and looking after the patient’s peace of mind are essential. Before every procedure, the dentist explains the entire treatment plan in detail, including its stages and possible consequences. During the consultation, a medical history is taken to assess the patient’s general health, and an X-ray is performed.
Only after gathering all the necessary information does the dentist proceed with the procedure, which is performed painlessly. After surgical treatment, the patient receives instructions to support a quick recovery.
Implantology is the most effective method of replacing missing teeth. After the loss of natural teeth, whatever the cause, implants make it possible to return to normal everyday functioning. A dental implant is the only solution in dentistry that recreates a properly functioning, natural-looking tooth. It is more comfortable than a removable denture, as it does not need to be taken out for cleaning. Unlike a bridge, it also causes no harm to the neighbouring teeth, which sometimes need to be ground down when a bridge is fitted.
It is best to place an implant as soon as possible — even on the day of extraction. Once a tooth is lost, the surrounding bone quickly recedes, which is unfavourable for implant placement. Implants improve the patient’s quality of life, providing a more attractive smile as well as better physical and mental wellbeing — and greater self-confidence.
Teeth whitening is the most popular procedure in modern aesthetic dentistry. A wide range of whitening products meets the needs of all patients, both in terms of price and the duration of the whitening process. In every case, the process is completely safe and effective. It should be remembered, however, that teeth whitening is not a permanent solution and requires proper maintenance to preserve a long-lasting effect.
At Lin Clinic we also take special care of our youngest patients. Proper hygiene of primary (baby) teeth is very important, as these teeth take part in shaping the child’s oral cavity. It is essential that a primary tooth remains healthy — or properly treated — until it is naturally replaced.Primary teeth hold the space for the permanent teeth that will later replace them. Premature removal of a primary tooth causes the remaining teeth to shift into the vacant space, closing the gap intended for the permanent tooth. In the future, this can lead to misalignment of the permanent tooth and the need for orthodontic treatment.
Primary teeth are highly susceptible to rapidly progressing decay, which is why frequent dental check-ups and appropriate preventive care are recommended. It is worth remembering that tooth decay is a source of bacteria that can also negatively affect the child’s general health.
Prosthodontics deals with replacing missing teeth, restoring the lost functions of the chewing system and improving the aesthetics of the teeth. Incomplete dentition has serious consequences for the patient’s everyday functioning and wellbeing. The loss of even a single tooth encourages the neighbouring teeth to shift (tilt or rotate) and the opposing teeth to “over-erupt”.
Types of prosthetic treatment:
- bridges,
- crowns,
- post-and-core restorations,
- implant-supported restorations,
- overdentures,
- skeletal (framework) dentures,
- conventional and immediate dentures,
- denture hygiene.
We know that sometimes a tooth has to be removed, which is why we make sure the resulting gap is filled with a new, aesthetic restoration. This way we will restore not only your beautiful smile, but also your self-confidence!
