Additional Information
Prof. Aris Petros Tripodakis is accepted by the international dental community as a highly qualified specialist in the field of Prosthodontics, Esthetic Dentistry and Oral Implantology. The principles of his Clinical approach are summarized as follows:
Esthetic Dentistry:
- The protagonists of a smile are the eyes. The teeth should not distract the eye contact with a smiling face, either by their ugliness or mutilation or by their striking “beauty”.
Prosthetic Dentistry:
- A dental prosthesis is not just the occasional dental laboratory product. Its ultimate goal is to become a vital member of the specific patient’s human body, related to the unique and factual elements that characterize the facial “oral personality” of the individual.
Implant Dentistry:
- Preservation of the natural dentition.
- Minimizing the number of surgical interventions.
- Immediate tooth replacement.
Clinical Services
- Restoring mutilated teeth with all-ceramic restorations (veneers - onlays - crowns).
