Top quality Hungarian dentists

Our Dentists

With the recent entry of Hungary into the EU and as competition has grown, Hungary has become a world leader in dentistry. No other country has so many highly trained and experienced dentists per capita offering all types of treatment from Periodontology, Orthodontology to Implantology in top class clinics.

All our dentists posses qualifications in the following:

• Conservation dentistry
• Cosmetic dentistry
• Endodontics
• Periodontics
• Dental prosthetics
• Implantology

Hungary is renowned all over the world for its high standards and advanced medical procedures, with many of their medical profession teaching and practicing internationally. Our dentists are no exception and they are privileged to be teaching as university professors at various Dental Schools.

In the UK you might expect to see a dentist who specialises in one particular area but in Hungary dentists are trained to cover all aspects of dentistry and they have a longer and more comprehensive training than those in the UK. Most of the clinics are located in major towns in modern facilities and run by internationally trained English speaking doctors and equipped with digital x-ray systems, the latest computer controlled dental chairs, oral cameras and laser and light teeth whitening systems.

Dental surgeons and doctors are known simply as Doctor or Mr and doctors state their speciality. Hungarian dentists and surgeons' qualifications are acknowledged in the UK, and in fact many do work internationally/in the UK.

In order to practise, surgeons and dentists must obtain a governmental certificate and must be named on the door of their surgery.

Dentists must be fully qualified, with affiliations and membership to international dental organisations. In order to maintain their license, practicing dentists must accrue enough points each year and they do so by attending training courses, seminars and lectures to keep them continually aware of new technologies and techniques.

Dentists train initially as a 'general' dentist and then go on to specialise (in a similar way that a surgeon might become a cosmetic surgeon), so they are either general dentists or specialists in a field of dentistry. For example, a general dentist can go for a short course and become an Implantologist but an Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon has to train for at least an extra two to three years on top of five years at university which makes them better equipped to carry out implant and bone grafting surgery. This high level training means that dentists in Hungary offer a very superior service.
