As an oral surgeon and dental implantology specialist with over 20 years of clinical experience, Dr Iliya Budev strongly believes that early diagnosis and timely intervention remain the most effective ways to preserve natural teeth.

Dr Aleksandar Momani, however, is among the specialists who always look for a way to say to them: "We will find a way to place an implant." His emblematic professionalism, cutting-edge technology and materials, and holistic approach have already helped thousands of patients smile with confidence.

In properly selected cases, its success rate is comparable to that of conventional, delayed implant placement.
She believes that a smile is the elusive fifth element that brings together the most important aspects of our personality and projects them to the world.

This innovative method has enormous potential to create well-aligned smiles, especially when treatment is carried out by an experienced and dedicated professional like Dr Yoana Fileva.
