Why I decided to start treatment
I had a removable denture for years. In the beginning it was still manageable, but over time it really became difficult. My gums often hurt and sometimes I even got sores. During eating it also didn't feel comfortable and I had to eat with a lot of caution.
Speaking sometimes became difficult. Some words I could no longer pronounce clearly. Overall it never felt really natural and I was constantly aware of my denture.
After a while, people in my environment said that it might be better to look for a fixed solution. At first I hesitated, because I had already had several less good experiences. But when I came to VIDENT clinic and heard about their new and precise treatment methods, I decided to give it a chance anyway.

The course of the treatment
Before the treatment started, they showed me a digital planning of the expected end result. It was a three-dimensional representation of my teeth, and they explained that the final result would strongly resemble it.
The treatment was performed for both the upper and lower jaw. During the entire process, every step was calmly explained and everything went step by step.
When the definitive teeth were placed and I looked in the mirror, I found it special to see that the result almost exactly resembled the image I had seen earlier in the digital planning.

My opinion about the team
Dr. Petrov was very professional and clearly a specialist in his field. The treatment team was friendly, respectful and well organized, and every step of the treatment was clearly explained.
My score is without a doubt 10 out of 10.

How and why I decided to finally start treatment
To be honest, I have been afraid of the dentist for years. Not just a little nervous — it was a real phobia.
Every time the word “dentist” came up, I got a knot in my stomach. That’s why I hadn’t made an appointment for a very long time. I always told myself: “I can hold on a bit longer” or “I’ll get it fixed later”.
But my teeth gradually became really difficult to live with. My front teeth were sticking out, some were broken, and eating became difficult and sometimes even painful.
But honestly, the mental pressure was heavier than the physical pain. When I spoke, I unconsciously held my hand in front of my mouth. I almost never smiled. Even during family gatherings or when I was outside, I was constantly thinking about what others might think of my teeth. It felt like everyone saw it — even though that was probably not the case.
One day, someone from my environment who had been treated at your clinic told me about his experience. Very calm and positive. He said that the team was so friendly and reassuring and that his fear had actually completely disappeared.
And for the first time I thought to myself: maybe it can be different this time.
Despite all my fear, I still called and scheduled a consultation. I still remember well how much stress I had when I stepped into the clinic on the first day.
But in the first minutes that feeling changed. The calm and respectful reception by the team and the clear, patient explanation by Dr. Petrov gave me a feeling of safety for the first time. No one judged me. There was no pressure. Only explanation, patience and respect.

A short look at the treatment journey
During the consultation, my teeth were fully examined. Dr. Petrov explained in a simple and clear way how both the appearance of my teeth and my chewing power could be restored.
For me it was important to know that I would not expect unbearable pain or be confronted with something scary — and fortunately that was really the case.
The treatment happened step by step. Everything was first explained and nothing started until I was ready for it. That way my fear became smaller bit by bit.
Slowly I also started to notice changes.
Eating became easier again. I no longer had to cut my food into small pieces and avoid certain things. Even some words could suddenly be pronounced more clearly.
But the biggest change was how I felt about myself.
I was no longer ashamed to smile. When I looked in the mirror, I felt calm instead of worry. My teeth looked completely natural — and they felt that way too. As if they had always been mine.

My opinion about the dental team – score out of 10
For me this was not just a treatment. It was overcoming an old fear.
The professional approach, the patience, the clear explanation in simple language and the real attention to how I felt as a patient — that I honestly had not often experienced.
If I have to give a score, it is without a doubt a 10 out of 10.
Because:
I came in with fear and went out with peace.
I started with worries and ended with a smile.
And something I had been running away from for years became ultimately one of the best decisions of my life.

Why I decided to start treatment
For a few years I was not satisfied with the appearance of my teeth.
Some of my upper front teeth were damaged and the color of my teeth was also not even. There were also a few dark spots visible, which made it extra noticeable when I laughed.
Because of that my self-confidence had decreased a lot. When I laughed, I usually tried not to open my mouth fully. In addition to the appearance, I occasionally also had toothache, which was really annoying.
A few of my friends had previously had treatment at VIDENT clinic in Antwerp and had a good experience there. They recommended this clinic to me.
Although I had to come from another city, I still decided to make an appointment for a consultation.

The course of the treatment
From the first appointment the reception at the clinic was very friendly and professional. Everything was explained calmly and clearly, so I knew exactly what was going to happen.
In the end we decided to place veneers on both the upper and lower jaw, so that not only the appearance of my teeth was improved, but also the problems I had could be solved.
The treatment went step by step and at every stage it was explained exactly what was being done. That gave me a reassuring feeling and a lot of confidence.
Although I had to travel from another city to Antwerp for every appointment, it was absolutely worth it because everything was carried out so carefully.

Why I decided to start treatment
A few years ago I had composite placed on my teeth at another clinic.
In the beginning it looked good, but after a short time some parts started to get cracks and a few pieces even broke off. In some places the color also changed.
Over time my teeth looked irregular again and the result I expected was not maintained. That is why I decided that this time I wanted a more durable solution.
Through social media I came into contact with VIDENT clinic. After seeing several treatments, I decided to make an appointment for a consultation.

The course of the treatment
During the first appointment, what especially struck me was the structure and organization of the work in the clinic.
All steps were clear and the examination of my teeth was carried out with digital and advanced equipment.
Dr. Petrov examined the condition of my teeth and the old composites and explained that for a better and more durable result we could place veneers on both the upper and lower jaw.
The full treatment was clearly planned in advance and proceeded according to that plan.
Digital scans and modern equipment were used, and every step was explained beforehand before it was carried out.
Overall the entire treatment process was very precise and structured.

How and why I decided to have my teeth treated
There was a bit of space between some of my teeth, especially between my front teeth. When I smiled, you could see it clearly.
My mom and dad said it was better to treat it now, because I am still young and my teeth can be straightened more easily.
We went together to the doctor to see what was possible. At first I thought I would have to wear a metal brace like some of my friends at school, and honestly I found that a bit scary.
But the doctor told us that we could use Invisalign. Those are transparent aligners that straighten your teeth step by step. When I heard that they are almost invisible, I already felt much more reassured.

A short look at the treatment
The first time I wore the aligners, it felt a bit strange.
The first few days it was getting used to and sometimes it was a bit harder to pronounce some words. But after a few days I got used to it and it felt much more normal.
What I liked the most was that they are transparent. At school almost no one noticed that I was wearing them, so I wasn't ashamed at all.
By changing the aligners regularly, the spaces between my teeth became smaller and smaller and my teeth stood straighter and straighter.

How it came that I had my teeth treated
My teeth were a bit crooked and did not close neatly on each other.
I myself paid a lot of attention to that, especially when I smiled in the mirror.
One of my good friends had already come here before me to have his teeth straightened.
I saw almost up close how his aligners were replaced every so often and how his teeth slowly became straighter.
Because I had seen his treatment, I did not have the fear that some people have for a dental treatment.
That is why I asked him for the name of the doctor and then we came here together with my mom and dad to start my treatment.

When I started wearing Invisalign
The doctor suggested that I use Invisalign for both my upper and lower jaw.
What I found interesting was that these aligners are very light and transparent.
When I wore them for the first time, it felt as if there was just a thin plate on my teeth.
Contrary to what I first thought, it hardly hurt at all.
Only when I got a new aligner, I felt a light pressure for one or two days, but that quickly became normal.
Slowly wearing them became completely normal for me and it didn't bother me at all.

My opinion about the doctor and the clinic
I am glad I did this treatment.
Before I started the treatment I had seen the result of my friend and I hoped it would be the same for me. Fortunately that really happened.
The behavior of the doctor and the team of the clinic was always calm and friendly, so I felt at ease.
