With bases in various cities, including London, I am committed to delivering the highest standards of dentistry while embracing the opportunities that this region has to offer.
Implantology
Immediate-Loading
With extensive experience in immediate-loading techniques, I ensure safe and successful outcomes for my patients, making me a trusted authority in the field.
Complex Cases
I thrive on challenges and approach complex rehabilitations with discipline and method, ensuring every patient receives personalised care and attention.
Regeneration Techniques
Overcoming bone deficiencies with regenerative techniques allows me to transform limitations into opportunities, ensuring optimal results for every patient.
WHAT I DO
Immediate-Loading Implantology
Through his meticulous and patient-centric approach, Dr. Mihai Cotenescu consistently delivers successful outcomes in even the most complex dental rehabilitation cases, ensuring patient satisfaction and long-term oral health.
Dr. Mihai Cotenescu excels in handling complex dental rehabilitations with a disciplined and methodical approach, ensuring each patient receives personalised care and attention.
Comprehensive Management of Complex Cases
Dr. Cotenescu thrives on challenges, especially in complex dental implant cases where lack of bone or aesthetic requirements pose significant hurdles.
These complexities may arise from genetic conditions, unsuitable dental work, oral cancer surgery, or head and mouth trauma.
Dr. Cotenescu's expertise in implantology, periodontal knowledge, and, in more intricate cases, maxillofacial surgery, ensures that each patient receives the specialised care they need.
Medical and Dental Assessment
Complex cases are managed by Dr. Cotenescu, a senior implant surgeon with extensive experience across all required disciplines. He adopts a multidisciplinary approach to planning and treatment, involving leading experts where necessary to achieve the best outcome for the patient.
In-depth diagnosis, based on experience and evidence, optimises treatment plans and ensures each element is delivered in the correct sequence.
Advanced tools like computer tomography and 3D modelling aid in planning and monitoring progress, with careful consideration given to reconstruction materials and nerve function to avoid pain or loss of sensitivity.
Achieving Solutions and a Dedicated Approach
Dr. Cotenescu utilises advanced techniques for bone augmentation, restoring or regenerating bone to support normal implants.
This includes expanding the ridge of the jaws, sinus lifts, or bone grafts in other areas to ensure successful implants.
While some cases may benefit from quicker solutions to restore immediate function, Dr. Cotenescu emphasises the importance of allowing sufficient healing time in most complex cases. By not compromising on the reconstruction of the jaw or wider facial area, he ensures a strong base for healthy, lasting dental implants, prioritising uninflamed hard and soft tissues for optimal long-term results.
WHAT I DO
Immediate loading
By incorporating advanced techniques and maintaining close collaboration with his team, Dr. Mihai Cotenescu delivers exceptional results in immediate implant placement and loading, ensuring patient satisfaction and long-term success.
Immediate Loading and Provisionalisation
Dr. Cotenescu specialises in immediate loading, where restorations are placed within 48 hours of implant placement.
This technique, known as immediate provisionalisation for single teeth, meets the growing demand for quicker treatment.
By ensuring sufficient primary stability, he can provide patients with aesthetic restorations on the day of surgery, minimising the time spent with gaps in their dentition.
Patient Benefits and Predictability
The immediate loading approach offers numerous benefits, including shorter treatment times and reduced need for complex surgical procedures.
Dr. Cotenescu's expertise in this one-stage technique simplifies the surgical workflow, resulting in a single surgery instead of two.
This method not only enhances the post-operative experience but also demonstrates good predictability in clinical practice, making it a reliable option for both single-tooth and multiple implant placements.
Advanced Implant Systems and Collaboration
Dr. Cotenescu utilises clinically proven dental implant systems designed for high primary stability, even in challenging conditions like soft bone or extraction sockets.
His collaborative approach with oral surgeons, prosthodontists, and lab technicians ensures seamless integration of immediate implant placement and loading into his practice.
This multidisciplinary strategy enhances treatment outcomes and serves as a unique selling proposition, distinguishing his practice in the competitive dental market.
WHAT I DO
Advanced technologies
Dr. Mihai Cotenescu's expertise in dental implantology is reflected in his proficiency with advanced technologies, innovative materials, and precision techniques. Here are three key areas showcasing his skills and capabilities:
Advanced Imaging and Precision Planning
Dr. Cotenescu leverages cutting-edge 3D imaging technology and image-guided surgery to enhance precision in dental implant procedures.
By utilizing virtual planning and custom surgical guides created through 3D printing, he ensures the highest level of accuracy and efficiency.
This digital workflow not only streamlines the implant process but also minimizes the risk of errors, leading to superior outcomes for his patients.
Innovative Biocompatible Materials
Embracing the latest advancements in biocompatible materials, Dr. Cotenescu offers implants that are highly compatible with the body, promoting better tissue integration and stability.
These advanced materials, including novel surface coatings, enhance the healing process and reduce complications, ensuring a higher success rate and longevity of the implants. Patients benefit from implants that feel natural and support overall oral health.
Minimally Invasive and Precision-Guided Techniques
Dr. Cotenescu is dedicated to improving patient comfort and recovery through minimally invasive techniques and precision-guided implant technology.
Utilizing advanced tools and robotic navigation, he achieves precise implant placement with minimal trauma to surrounding tissues.
This approach reduces postoperative pain and swelling, leading to faster recovery times and a smoother treatment experience, ultimately enhancing patient satisfaction and outcomes.
