7Is there a possibility to see what the result could be on my mouth?
We are able to show the patient what the outcome of our treatments could be by showing them photos and models.
8Is every operation performed under anesthesia?
And if so, what type of anesthesia is used? Does it change depending on the intervention?
Not all operations require anesthesia. In those where it is necessary, we use local anesthesia. Even in a more invasive scenario, with local anesthesia, we are able to operate without the patient feeling any pain.
9How long does the effect of anesthesia last?
It depends mainly on the type of anesthetic used, generally, the one with a vasoconstrictor lasts about two hours, the one without about an hour.
10After which surgery can pain or swelling appear?
Typically, after oral surgery, including periodontal surgery and dental implantology.
11 If pain or swelling appears after the treatment, what should I do?
Post-operative pain can be easily controlled with painkillers prescribed by Freesmile doctors. The amount of post-operative swelling can be reduced by applying ice to the affected area, as directed by our doctors.
12Are post-operative checks free?
Yes, they are included in the treatment plan. di cure.
13What type of patients can be treated in your clinic? Children?People with disabilities? And if so, are there suitable structures?
All patients can be treated at Freesmile, even children. The clinic is also equipped for disabled patients.
14What are your working hours? Is there a continued schedule?
We work all day, on Saturdays and Sundays we remain closed for the time being.
15Do you have a dedicated surgery room?
Yes, two rooms equipped and dedicated to surgical operations, even the most complex ones. The rooms are completely compliant with international sterility protocols.
16Are the operations performed under local or total anesthesia?
The operations are done under local anesthesia. It is not necessary to resort to total anesthesia, with the associated risks.
17Do you cure periodontitis? Do you treat it with laser?
Yes, we treat periodontitis with gingival curettage and periodontal surgery depending on the severity of the situation. We do not use laser because, it is our opinion, that current laser therapy is not yet able to guarantee precise modeling of bone and gum.
18Do you do bone reconstruction?
Yes, in cases where there is not enough bone to insert implants or in the case of periodontal disease when the bone needs to be re-stabilized.
19Is the bone you use synthetic or organic?
Biological. We use freeze-dried and denatured bovine bone, i.e. free of organic component, totally biocompatible which is inserted where there is a lack of bone. The Swiss material belongs to the safest materials currently available on the world market.
20What material are your capsules made of?
We have chosen to make capsules mainly in ceramic-zirconium because it is a material that protects against allergic reactions and guarantees an optimal aesthetic effect. Unlike crowns made with a metal fusion, those made of zirconium ceramic have a translucency that makes them as beautiful as natural teeth. Even with the passage of time, our capsules never show a black border, but maintain a natural appearance.
21Do you have an on-site laboratory?
No, we source from external laboratories, carefully selected.
22Can you guarantee that I won’t feel any pain with the anesthesia?
Yes, local anesthesia manages to eliminate pain during the operation, but the pressure, touching and pushing continue to be felt, so these sensations should not be confused with pain.
23Do you do composite fillings?
Yes, this material allows the filling to be made in the same color as the natural tooth. It is composed of composite resin particles and is inserted into the tooth cavity immediately after the removal of the decayed tissue. With the composite, especially the front teeth can be reconstructed with advanced aesthetics, for the reconstruction on the molars we use ceramic.
24Can you place implants even with little bone?
Usually yes, if there is not enough bone to insert the implants we resort to bone regeneration.
25Do you use veneers in your clinic?
Yes, we use dental veneers to solve aesthetic problems (to close spaces between teeth, discoloration, fractured teeth) and especially misalignment.
26Do you have an orthodontist on site?
Yes, we have an experienced orthodontist to treat adults and children with major teeth alignment and malocclusion problems.
27Is it possible to pay in installments?
It is possible to pay the amount of treatment in installments via financial institution.
28Are there any agreements?
Yes, to offer treatments at even more advantageous conditions to our patients, we have entered into a quality agreement with over 50 prestigious private companies and public bodies.

The Patient Experience at the Center of the Path
Every patient comes with a different story.
Some have pain. Some have lost trust. Some have received Treatment Plans that are difficult to understand. Others want a Second Opinion before deciding.
At FreeSmile, we try to make each path clearer, more ordered and more reassuring. Patient stories show not only the final result, but also how people were listened to, informed and guided.
Every path is individual.
The objective remains the same: to help the patient regain Health, Function and Confidence through a healthy, natural smile.
