Augmentation and sinus lifting (Surgery)
What is Augmentation?
Augmentation is a process referring to the addition/reproduction of artificial bone in surgery. Surgeons perform the procedure prior to or during implantation because most patients with long-lost tooth(s) experience atrophy (depletion) of bone tissue. For a dental implant to be fully functional, sufficient bone volume is needed. It is the purpose of augmentation to create the necessary bone volume.
What is sinus lifting?
Sinus lifting refers to the elevation of the sinus floor with artificial bone, whereby bone volume is created for the implant.
Root canal treatment (Endodontics) (Therapy)

Fissure sealing (Therapy)
What is fissure sealing?
Fissure sealing is the coating of permanent teeth with a special, liquid filling. Due to the shape and structure of chewing teeth, it is difficult to maintain proper hygiene, especially on chewing teeth where the toothbrush cannot reach the fissures on the tooth surface. This leads to the accumulation of food debris and tooth decay. It is these fissures that are covered with a special liquid filling that prevents tooth decay.
What is the material used for fissure sealing?
Fissures sealing is done with a special liquid filling – sealants, which contain fluoride and calcium. Liquid, laser-cured mass flows easily into fissures and with the help of the laser strengthens and protects teeth from bacteria.
Who is fissure sealing recommended for?
Fissure sealing is done for adolescents between the ages of 6-14. For the sealing to be done, the tooth needs to be healthy, that is why the sealing is done as soon as the permanent chewing teeth appear.
What is the effect of the sealant?
During sealing the risk of caries is reduced by up to 70-80%.
Lip and Tongue Frenectomy (Frenuloplasty) (Surgery)

Dental implantation (Surgery)
What is dental implant surgery?
Dental implantation is a surgical procedure that involves implanting an artificial root (implant) into the jaw in place of a missing tooth. The next step is attaching an artificial tooth (crown) to the artificial root. This procedure has no alternative for the restoration of missing teeth and has been performed successfully throughout the world for many years. Anna Metreveli Dental Clinic employs implants of the highest quality, which practically excludes complications after implantation.
What are the advantages of the implant?
Unlike artificial crowns, the restoration of one or more teeth does not require extra work on the neighboring teeth. The device is implanted into the bone in the place of the missing tooth.
In case of total absence of teeth, it is possible to fix, for example, a removable prosthesis on the implants, so that the prosthesis does not move during talking or chewing.
What implants does the Anna Metreveli Center use?
We use only top-quality implants (Switzerland, Israel), which almost exclude complications after implantation.
What is implantation with a surgical guide?
A surgical guide is a custom-made design made using an imprint of the patient’s teeth, allowing the implant to be inserted into the bone system. Implantation with surgiocal guide is an integral part of modern dentistry.

Orthodontic treatment uses orthodontic appliances: plates, mouth guards, braces, expanders and mini-implants.
What are braces and how do they work?
Braces represent an orthodontic device that corrects improper jaw and bites development.
როგორ უნდა მიხვდე რომ გესაჭიროება ბრეკეტები?
არსებობს რამოდენიმე მიზეზი, როდესაც ბრეკეტებით მკურნალობა აუცილებელია:
- არასწორი, სხვადასხვა მხარეს გადახრილი კბილები
- ერთმანეთზე გადადებული კბილები
- ერთმანეთისგან მკვეთრად დაშორებული კბილები
- არაბუნებრივად გამოწეული ზედა ან ქვედა ყბა
- სუნთქვის ან ღეჭვის პრობლემები
- საფეთქელ-ქვედა ყბის სახსრის დისფუნქცია(ტკივილი, დაჭიმულობა, ტკაცუნი)
- ქვედა ყბის მარჯვნივ ან მარცხნივ გადანაცვლება, ასიმეტრია
What is the recommended age for braces?
Braces are recommended from the early age of a child, from 9-10 years, when the process of the formation of the jaw and bite is still going on, although the treatment with the braces may also be performed at an adult age. The earlier these problems are solved, the healthier and more beautiful your smile will be.
What types of braces are available?
Due to the continuous development of dentistry, there is a wide variety of braces available. Modern dentistry has both removable and fixed braces. Fixed appliances include metal, ceramic, self-ligating, or lingual braces. Each differs from the other in terms of features and function.
Metal braces are a classic. They are the most in-demand and affordable. They are fixed on the outer surface of the teeth (vestibular), have better retention and are fast, and most importantly, effective. To make treatment more fun, the color of the rubber bands (ligatures) attached to the braces can be modified, as desired by the patient.
Ceramic braces are attached to the outside of the teeth (vestibularly) and are less noticeable than metal braces. Ceramic braces match the color of the tooth and are therefore more aesthetically pleasing.
Sapphire braces are specifically treated synthetic sapphire braces, which, like ceramic braces, are attached to the outside surface of the teeth (vestibularly). Sapphire braces are the most transparent (less visible) and therefore the most aesthetic compared to similar systems. They do not damage the surface of the tooth and, unlike other systems, show less discoloration when consuming colored food/drink (colored tea, coffee, cigarettes, wine). In addition, due to the specially treated material, sapphire braces do not cause allergies.
Self-ligating braces are fixed on the outer surface of the teeth (vestibularly). Unlike metal braces, instead of rubber bands (ligatures), the braces have special clasps that change the direction of the teeth more quickly.
Lingual braces are attached to the inner surface of the tooth and are therefore invisible. The treatment with lingual braces may not be possible for all anomalies, it depends on individual cases, which is up to the doctor to decide.
Can braces harm my teeth?
A braces treatment plan that is correctly designed by a professional orthodontist will not damage your teeth. In addition, the patient must follow all hygiene measures properly.
How long does it take to get braces to fix teeth?
The duration of orthodontic treatment is individual and depends on the severity of the patient’s teeth anomaly. The duration of treatment is up to 1-2 years.
Can anyone be treated with braces?
Only an orthodontist, after a detailed oral examination and diagnosis, can determine whether or not the braces can be used.

Veneers (Orthopedics)
What is orthopedic dentistry?
Orthopedic/prosthetic dentistry is the aesthetic and functional restoration of teeth. A dental prosthesis is a dental appliance that replaces a missing tooth or covers up tooth defects. Such appliances include implants, crowns, bridges, dentures and veneers, with some of them being removable or permanently fixed in the mouth.
What are veneers and when are they used?
Veneers are high-quality porcelain (ceramic) coverings placed on the front of the teeth. They are used to improve unwanted tooth color and/or shape, as well as to fill the space between the teeth. They can also be used to correct minor crookedness of teeth. Because of their exceptional aesthetic qualities, veneers are one of the most popular and effective dental treatments.
How long does a veneer last on a tooth?

How long do crowns last?
The durability of crowns depends on individual cases. With strict maintenance and hygiene by the patient, the crown lasts at least 10 years.
What does a crown made with digital technologies mean?
At the Ana Metreveli Dental Center, you can have your crowns made using digital technology, the so-called “CEREC ” technology. This technology implies the preparation of a crown in just one visit, without imprints or temporary crowns.
How is a crown made digitally?
With digital technology, an orthodontist, using a three-dimensional intraoral video camera, takes an impression of the patient’s teeth, which then is digitally transferred to the machine to start the “casting” of the teeth. Only pressed ceramics, a material that is very close to the natural tooth, are used in digital technology.
Dentures (Orthopedics)
What is orthopedic dentistry?

Professional teeth cleaning (Therapy)
What is professional teeth cleaning?
Professional teeth cleaning means the removal of dental calculus and plaque by a dental hygienist in a dental clinic using special equipment. The procedure is necessary for the prevention of oral diseases to have a healthy and beautiful smile.
Why do I need to have a professional cleaning?
At home, it is impossible to have a complete dental hygiene treatment. Plaque cannot be completely removed from certain areas of the tooth. Over time, the plaque left on the tooth turns into a persistent (stony) mass, which significantly damages the enamel of the tooth.
The treatment advantages:
Revitalization of the gum tissue
Prophylaxis of cavities
Removing bad breath
Maintaining of natural color
How often should I get a professional dental cleaning?
Professional cleanings are recommended once every 3-6 months, averaging 40 minutes.
How is the professional cleaning performed?
The procedure consists of three stages:
1. Ultrasonic preparation (Scaler) removes hard (plaque) stones formed on the surface of the teeth and under gums.
2. By using the system Air-flow in hard-to-reach places the soft plaque is removed with antiseptic powder.
3. The final stage involves polishing the teeth with abrasive paste.
