Story
This lady wanted to save her broken tooth. Her dentist told her, that she needs to get this tooth pulled out. She came to us and we rebuilt this tooth, saved it's nerves and vessels (so no root canal treatment was necessary). It took about 2 hours for our dental lab to produce the final restoration which we could easily cement in 15 minutes.

My experience with Balance Dental has been phenomenal which I like to share with everyone who is looking for not just a good professional Dental practice but where you feel safe due to the available knowledge between the staff.
From the first contact by email till the last goodby at the praxis was all very pleasant.
I had some issues with my teeth in the past and have seen different dentists. What I experienced here was from a different level. With a thorough examination done with scanning of all my teeth, X-ray’s and physical examinations the treatment plan was put together. We have been over each step and it was laid out why they advised this with real examples.
The execution of the whole plan went very smooth and after all done I am very happy and satisfied and have not felt in years so well about my teeth which does influence as well the rest of my body and my whole week being.
I like to thank Miklos and Sebastian (who did the actual treatment) and the whole team for their professional help. I can say if you want real help to handle your teeth and as well your back you should visit the practice and work with them and you will experience the result.
All the best,
HJR

Frequently asked questions
How are dental treatment so much cheaper in your clinic?
In Hungary labor costs and prices in general are lower, than in other, western parts of Europe. As dentistry is a service industry, a large part of the treatment costs cover labor costs, which are as said, lower. Besides this, digitalized processes in dental treatment and fabrication of dental restorations make it able to cut prices even more.
