Habits such as clenching or grinding teeth are usually caused by stress and can lead to jaw joint disorders. Changes to the structure of the jaw joint may occur as a result of a person clenching or grinding their teeth during sleep at night. Chewing muscles may get tired and tissues in the area may be damaged.

Ich komme aus der Schweiz und litt unter Zahnfleischproblemen sowie Knochenschwund im Kiefer. Während andere Kliniken vorschlugen, die betroffenen Zähne zu ziehen und durch Implantate zu ersetzen, entschied ich mich aufgrund meiner bereits vorhandenen Implantate im Unterkiefer und des dortigen Knochenschwunds, zunächst eine Behandlung des Zahnfleisches im Oberkiefer in Betracht zu ziehen. Die MosDent-Klinik empfahl mir eine Flap-Operation inklusive Knochenaufbau, die wir schließlich durchführten. Nun heißt es abwarten und Tee trinken 😉, bis alles verheilt ist.
From the first interaction with Mosdent team, I received all the Information I needed în regards with the specific steps needed for my treatment plan. My contact person în relation with Mosdent Hospital was Mr. Ozgur who was always present, accompanying me to every doctor that I was interacting with. He always made sure I am feeling confortable, and all my questions are being answered. The doctors that put în action the treatment plan were Mr. Bahadir who managed all my dental implants and Mr. Enes who was in charged with my intermediary and final prothesis. During the entire period I felt safe having all my questions answered and by seeing the Hospital team high level work ethic. I would highly recommend Mosdent Hospital entire team, including customer contact, Mr Ozgur, doctors Mr. Bahadir, mr. Enes, their teams, for their highly professionalism they demonstrated throughout my treatment making me their fist priority. Thank you very much.

I want to sincerely thank Mostdent Clinic for their excellent care. I came in initially for a crown, but during the examination, they found several hidden problems and immediately helped me build a clear and affordable treatment plan. Dr. Oksana handled most of the treatment – she did fillings and cleaned root canals under a microscope. Everything was done with precision and care, even in the most difficult cases. Dr. Muhammed Bahadır successfully removed the crown of my wisdom tooth. The procedure was quick and painless, which I had been really nervous about – but he did it professionally and calmly. Dr. Pelinsu Yıkılmaz placed new CEREC Celtra Duo crowns for me. She worked with great precision and care, and the whole procedure was smooth and fast. I’m very satisfied with the result — the crowns feel natural and comfortable. I also want to thank Özgür, the clinic coordinator. He stayed in contact the whole time, reminded me about my appointments, helped with any questions, and made everything feel organized and stress-free. This clinic truly combines professionalism with a caring attitude. I highly recommend them!
I'd like to thank the entire team, especially Ömer Faruk, for their dedication and support. They are the definitive go-to for all dental procedures.
