estorations. It is important to me to make sure someone’s own
teeth are preserved for as long as possible. Because as soon as
a tooth is removed, jawbone loss sets in. In this case implants
that grow into the bone can be helpful because they are very
durable. Implants in strategically smart positions can help
support one’s own teeth if they’ve become unstable. Bone loss
can be counteracted by supporting functionally correct stress
on teeth and implants.
Many people are unaware of the
fact that the teeth “for life” are
the molars – they are for chewing

and Berlin, he did his doctorate in 1975 in Marburg.
In the same year, he became a contracted are only used for biting things

and can thus be talked to directly
during the patient’s consultation.
In general, we recommend all
patients with statutory health
care to get supplementary insurance, the statutory health insurances
cannot cover all the services. High-quality dentures,
e.g. made from porcelain, are expensive, particularly when
it comes to the looks of fixed dentures. Seeing as we live
longer and longer, fixed dentures are important once one
reaches old age. And we often see early on which problems
could occur for patients in the coming years.

L.L. Dentinic was a finalist in the company competition
“Erfolgsfaktor Familie” (= success factor family), it is one
of the top 100 most innovative companies in Germany’s
mid-sized sector, and it is certified for environmental and
quality management. What’s the philosophy behind the
success of both practice and clinic?
G.B. The patient has the advantage of having everything
done in one place – from fillings to professional dental
cleaning up to a seven-hour surgery with general anaesthesia.
At Dentinic we make sure all treatments take place under
medical supervision. No matter if its surgery, endodontics
(root canals), implantology, and prosthetics, at Dentinic we
have it all under one roof. That makes sure the patients have
one point of contact for all their dental issues.
L.L. Nowadays time has become a precious resource –
entrepreneurs and managers often lack time. What
opportunities does Dentinic offer in order to facilitate
treatments with time constraints?
G.B. Many procedures require quite a lot of time but some
patients cannot take that much time off work. We give
patients the opportunity to spend their family holiday in
Garmisch-Partenkirchen and connect it with a treatment.
The teeth can be restored in the course of two or three intense
appointments while the family gets to explore the region’s
vast recreational opportunities in the meantime – we are
happy to organise it for them. We book golf courses and tennis
courts, book hotels, get opera tickets for Munich, Salzburg,
and Verona. Dentinic practically offers around-the-clock
service. Seeing as we make sure all necessary procedures are
done in as little time as possible we use only little medication,
the patients’ circulatory system is exposed to less strain and
the patients regain their strength more quickly.
L.L. Many patients shy away from seeing a dentist for
many reasons. What are these reasons and how can this fear
be counteracted?
G.B. Well, for one thing the mouth is a private part of the
body that is invaded. Aside from that many people have a
certain fear of dentists they have had since they were a child.
It would thus be important to make sure that parents try and
make going to the dentist a positive experience for children.
Consultation is extremely important for phobic patients. If
a patient comes to us for the first time, I take an hour of time
for them. It’s important to approach a person without time
pressure and give them the feeling that we will take care
of their wishes and ideas. During the treatment, our modern
multimedia equipment can help distract the patient with
their favourite films, music, and video games. Aside from

learn to associate
a visit to the
dentist’s with
something positive
from the start.”
