Dr Stefania Stoimenova is a young yet dedicated professional who is equally passionate about delivering high-quality dental care for everyday treatments and crafting highly specialised orthodontic solutions using advanced methods and technologies.

What is the best age to start orthodontic treatment?

Orthodontic treatment is not just about having a nice smile. Proper treatment is fundamental for having good dental health in the future because well-aligned teeth are crucial for eating well. This is why it is an integral part of children's dental care.

As an expert, I recommend the first visit to the orthodontist at around 7 years of age, when the child has both milk and permanent teeth. This is the best time to detect early problems and recommend timely treatment. However, if your child is younger than seven and you notice anything unusual, do not hesitate to visit an orthodontist.

Signs that a child needs specialist help include losing their milk teeth too early or too late, difficulty chewing or biting, breathing through the mouth, biting their cheeks and facial imbalance. An orthodontist can address these issues.

What modern methods of orthodontic treatment do you use in your practice?

Nowadays, there are many types of orthodontic appliance: retainers, clear aligners, and braces made of metal, ceramic or sapphire. Treatment can involve fixed appliances, which are attached to the teeth, or removable ones. Each type has its uses and advantages.

In my practice, I carry out a thorough, personalised analysis of each case, drawing on my knowledge and skills, and taking into account factors such as age, jaw imbalance, differences in tooth size, and dental arches. This gives me all the information I need to achieve a predictable outcome.

In my work, I use digital orthodontics, which enables patients to see a preview of the final expected result for their smile, particularly in aligners treatment. I use 3D scanning and digital planning to ensure precise diagnostics and a bespoke treatment plan for each patient. After a personalised assessment, I select the most suitable treatment options - aligners, metal braces, sapphire braces or something else.

By aligning teeth properly and correcting jaw misalignment, I can bring positive change to patients' lives, making them more confident, satisfied and successful.

So, what is the secret to successful orthodontic treatment?

The secret lies in the trust and collaboration between patient and doctor. It is essential that patients wear their appliances as prescribed, maintain good oral hygiene and follow the doctor's instructions carefully. The retention phase after treatment is equally important for preserving the achieved results. Unfortunately, some patients - especially children and teenagers - neglect this phase, which can cause their teeth to shift out of alignment again.

Successful orthodontic treatment with long-lasting results requires cooperation, a well-designed, tailored treatment plan, the right choice of appliances, mutual trust, regular dental visits and strict adherence to the retention protocol.

Д-р Стефания Стоименова: Тайната на щастливата усмивка

Бутикова практика със солиден опит: д-р Стефания Стоименова е млад, но амбициозен професионалист, който с еднаква страст осигурява класическо дентално лечение от най-висока класа и предлага персонализирано ортодонтско лечение с най-съвременни методи и технологии.

Коя е най-подходящата възраст, за да започнем ортодонтско лечение?

Ортодонтското лечение не е само за хубава усмивка. Правилното лечение е от ключово значение за доброто дентално здраве през целия живот, защото без правилно подредени зъби не можем да се храним добре. Затова то е критично важна част от грижата за оралното здраве на децата ни.

Като експерт препоръчвам първият преглед да е на около 7-годишна възраст, когато детето има и млечни, и постоянни зъби. Това е най-доброто време да забележим ранни проблеми и да препоръчаме навременно лечение. Разбира се, ако детето е под 7 години и забележите нещо необичайно, не се колебайте и потърсете ортодонт.

Признаците, че детето има нужда от специализирана помощ, включват ранна или късна загуба на млечни зъби; затруднено дъвчене или отхапване; дишане през устата; захапване на бузите; дисбаланс на лицето. Ортодонтът може да се справи с тези проблеми.

Какви модерни методи за ортодонтско лечение използвате в практиката си?

Днес има много ортодонтски апарати: ретейнери, прозрачни алайнери, метални, керамични и сапфирени брекети и други. Лечението може да включва подвижни или фиксирани към зъбите апарати. Всеки от тях има своите приложения и предимства.

В моята практика анализирам внимателно всеки индивидуален случай, като черпя от своите специализирани знания и умения, и вземам предвид фактори като възраст,
дисбаланс на челюстите, разлики в размера на зъбите и зъбните дъги. Това ми дава нужната информация, за да постигна предвидим резултат.

В практиката си използвам възможностите на дигиталната ортодонтия. Благодарение на това пациентите могат да видят предвидимия финален завършек на усмивката си, особено при лечението с алайнери. Използвам 3D сканиране и цифрово планиране за прецизна диагностика и персонализирано лечение. След индивидуалната оценка на пациента подбирам най-подходящите възможности за лечението – алайнери, метални или сапфирени брекети и други.

С правилно подредените зъби и коригирани и синхронизирани челюсти променям живота на пациентите и те стават по-успешни в живота.

Каква е тайната на успешното ортодонтско лечение?

Пациентът трябва да носи апаратите, както е предписано, да поддържа добра орална хигиена и да следва внимателно указанията на лекаря. Фазата на ретенция – след края на активното лечение, е много важна за запазването на постигнатите резултати. Успешното ортодонтско лечение с трайни резултати изисква сътрудничество, правилен план на лечение и подбор на апарати, взаимно доверие, редовни прегледи и задължителна ретенция.
