Why choose Sibiu for your dental treatment
Do you live in Germany, Austria or another European country and need dental treatment? Sibiu can be a good choice if you want quality dental care at affordable costs, and the chance to organise your clinic visits around the time you have available.
Here are a few reasons to consider dental tourism in Sibiu:
- More affordable costs: dental treatments in Romania can be cheaper than in Germany or Austria, including dental implants and full rehabilitations.
- Treatment planning before you travel: at Giadent Smile you can discuss the treatment options, the stages required and the estimated costs in advance.
- Fewer unnecessary trips: appointments can be organised to group together the procedures that can safely be carried out in the same visit.
- Easy to reach from abroad: you can get to Sibiu by plane or by car, depending on the country you travel from.
- The chance to discover the city: if your treatment schedule allows, you can use your free time to visit Sibiu’s historic centre and tourist attractions.
At Giadent Smile, we help you understand each stage of the treatment and plan your trip, so you know what to expect before you arrive at the clinic.
How the treatment works, step by step
Dental treatment carried out in another country requires careful planning. Depending on the complexity of the case, several stages may be needed, separated by healing periods.
Before you travel: video consultation and treatment plan
The first step is to contact us and explain which dental problems you have and what treatment you want.
In a video consultation, the doctor can talk with you about your symptoms, dental history and treatment options. If you have X-rays, CBCT scans or recent medical documents, you can send them for a preliminary assessment.
Based on the information available, we can discuss:
- The treatment options that might suit your situation.
- The stages of treatment and the estimated length of each visit.
- The approximate number of trips required.
- The estimated costs and the factors that can change the quote.
The preliminary plan does not replace the clinical consultation. The final recommendation is made after a direct examination and the necessary investigations.
First visit: CBCT assessment and treatment
When you arrive in Sibiu, the doctor carries out the clinical consultation and reviews the available investigations. If the treatment requires dental implants, CBCT examination can help assess the bone volume and plan the position of the implants.
Once the diagnosis and treatment plan are confirmed, the scheduled procedures can be carried out, depending on the clinical situation.
For dental implants, the first visit may include extractions, implant placement or other preparatory procedures. Sometimes a temporary restoration can be fitted, but this depends on the stability of the implants and the particularities of the case.
Second visit: the final restoration
After the healing period and, for implants, once osseointegration has been confirmed, the patient returns for the prosthetic stages.
These may include impressions or digital scanning, try-ins of the restoration and fitting of the final crowns or bridges.
The length of this stage depends on the number of restorations, the complexity of the work and any adjustments needed to achieve a functional and comfortable bite.
After you return home: dental care recommendations
Dental care continues after the treatment is completed. The doctor will explain the oral hygiene rules, the recommendations for the healing period and how often check-ups are needed.
If you notice persistent pain, a restoration that moves or other unusual symptoms, it is important to contact the clinic to receive advice.
Depending on the problem, an assessment by a dentist in the country where you live or a new visit to Sibiu may be needed.
How many trips are needed and how long each one lasts
The number of trips depends on the type of treatment and how the body responds to the procedures.
For a dental implant, treatment may involve one visit to place the implant and a later visit for the final restoration. A healing period is needed between them, which can last a few months.
For full rehabilitations, the stages are determined by the condition of the teeth, the bone volume, whether extractions are needed and the type of prosthetic work.
Some treatments with crowns, bridges or veneers can be organised in a single trip, with several appointments at the clinic.
The aim of the planning is to group the procedures that can safely be carried out in the same visit, without shortening the biological periods needed for healing.
The exact length of stay and the number of trips are communicated after the case has been assessed.
Recommended treatments for patients from abroad
Not all dental treatments require the same number of visits. For patients who live abroad, it is important to choose a solution that meets their medical needs and allows trips to be organised efficiently.
At Giadent Smile, implantology, prosthetic and cosmetic dentistry treatments can be planned around the time you can come to Romania.
Dental implants and full rehabilitations
If you have lost one or more teeth, dental implants can be a solution for restoring chewing function and the natural look of your smile.
At Giadent Smile we use Bredent implants, developed by a German manufacturer. Depending on the clinical situation, they can support single crowns, bridges or extended prosthetic restorations.
The treatment involves assessing the bone support, placing the implant, a period of osseointegration and making the final restoration. If bone grafting is needed, the planning may include additional stages.
For patients from abroad, we determine in advance which procedures can be carried out on the same trip and when a return to the clinic is needed.
All-on-4 and All-on-6
If you have lost most of your teeth or your existing teeth can no longer be saved, the All-on-4 and All-on-6 systems can be full-arch rehabilitation options.
These treatments involve supporting a fixed restoration on four or six implants, depending on the anatomical situation and the doctor’s recommendation.
In some cases, a temporary fixed restoration can be fitted shortly after the implants are placed. The final restoration is made later, after healing and once the stability of the implants has been verified.
Giadent Smile offers full-arch rehabilitation solutions on Bredent implants, including the Fast & Fixed system.
Crowns, bridges and veneers
If you have damaged or missing teeth, or want to improve the look of your smile, prosthetic treatments can be a suitable option.
Dental crowns are used to restore teeth that need protection and rebuilding, bridges can replace one or more missing teeth, and veneers are recommended in certain situations to improve the look of the front teeth.
Giadent Smile offers restorations in zirconia and Emax ceramic.
Depending on the number of teeth treated and the complexity of the case, some restorations can be completed during a single stay in Sibiu, with several appointments.
Treatments that cannot be compressed into a single visit
Some dental procedures require healing periods that cannot be eliminated by scheduling several consecutive sessions.
For example, after dental implants are placed, osseointegration can take around 3–6 months. For bone grafts, certain periodontal treatments or complex rehabilitations, additional stages may be needed.
That is why we will not recommend shortening a treatment if doing so could affect the medical outcome.
International warranty and the implant passport
When you choose dental tourism in Romania, it is natural to want to know what guarantees you have and how to identify the implants used, especially if you live in another country.
At Giadent Smile we use Bredent implants, which are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, under the applicable conditions. This should be distinguished from the medical outcome of the treatment, which also depends on healing, oral hygiene and regular check-ups.
The implant passport is an identification document that may include information about the manufacturer, the implant model and traceability data. This information can be useful to a dentist in another country if you need an assessment or maintenance.
Before treatment begins, we recommend that you clarify the warranty conditions, the documents you will receive and the procedure to follow if a problem arises.
What happens if a problem appears after you return home
One of the most important concerns for patients who choose dental tourism is access to care after treatment has finished.
If you notice persistent discomfort, inflammation, a loose prosthetic restoration or other changes, contact the clinic and describe your symptoms. Photos or tests carried out at a local practice can help the doctor understand the situation.
Depending on your symptoms, the doctor may recommend a check-up in the country where you live or a re-evaluation in Sibiu. In the case of severe pain, heavy bleeding or a suspected infection, local medical assessment should not be delayed.
Any additional procedures, and the conditions under which they are covered by the warranty, are determined by the cause of the problem and the treatment documents.
Support in Romanian, English and German
When you travel from abroad for dental treatment, clear communication is essential.
It is important that you understand every stage of treatment, the costs, the medical recommendations and the instructions for the recovery period.
For patients who speak Romanian, English or German, the language of the consultations and of the medical information should be agreed before booking.
This way, you can ask for explanations about the recommended procedures and clear up all your questions before you travel.
Accommodation and transport in Sibiu
Organising your trip is an important part of dental treatment abroad. Before you book tickets and accommodation, we recommend confirming with the clinic the estimated length of your stay and any restrictions after the procedure.
How to get to Sibiu
Sibiu can be reached by plane, car or other means of transport, depending on where you are travelling from.
Sibiu International Airport serves the city and offers flight connections that you should check for your travel dates. If you are coming from Germany or Austria, you can look at the available flights and possible connections from other airports.
If you are going to have surgery, discuss with the doctor the right time for your return journey.
Accommodation options near the clinic
The Giadent Smile clinic is located at 1 Gladiolelor Street, in Sibiu.
For a stay of a few days, you can choose a hotel or a serviced apartment, depending on your budget and personal preferences.
If you are going to have a more complex procedure, we recommend choosing comfortable accommodation with easy access to the clinic, so that trips to check-ups are as simple as possible.
Airport transfer
From Sibiu International Airport you can reach the city by taxi or other available transport options.
If you need help organising your journey, you can ask the clinic for information about transport options to the practice.
What to visit in Sibiu between appointments
If your treatment schedule and the doctor’s recommendations allow, you can make the most of your time in Sibiu to discover the city.
The historic centre, the Large Square (Piata Mare) and the Bridge of Lies are among the best-known sights. For a longer visit, the ASTRA Museum lets you discover the architecture and traditions of the Romanian village.
However, after surgical procedures, rest and following the medical instructions come first. Sightseeing should be adapted to your recovery period.
Why Giadent Smile
Choosing a clinic for dental treatment abroad means trusting the medical team, the technology used and the way the whole process is organised.
At Giadent Smile, in Sibiu, you have access to implantology, oral surgery, prosthetics and aesthetic dentistry, in a clinic where treatment can be coordinated across several specialities.
Bredent implants with manufacturer’s warranty
We use Bredent implants, developed in Germany and used to replace missing teeth and for complex oral rehabilitation.
They are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, under its conditions. During the consultation, the doctor can explain what the treatment involves and how the implants should be maintained in the long term.
3D digital planning and CBCT
In implantology, correct planning is essential for assessing the anatomy and choosing the position of the implants.
CBCT scans allow three-dimensional examination of the bone structures and identification of anatomical features that matter for the procedure.
Through digital planning, the doctor can analyse the clinical situation in more detail and set out the stages of treatment.

Dr. Georgiana Ciobanu is a dentist with expertise in implantology and is part of the Giadent Smile team.
Professional experience and training in implantology are important when assessing cases that require replacement of missing teeth or complex rehabilitation.

Treatment plan and transparent quote before you travel
When you come from another country, you need to organise your holiday, transport and accommodation. That is why it is important to know the stages and estimated costs of treatment as early as possible.
Based on the medical documents available, we can discuss the treatment options and a preliminary quote.
After the clinical examination, the doctor confirms the recommended treatment and explains any changes that may be needed.
Frequently asked questions
How much do I save compared with prices in Germany?
The saving depends on the treatment you need and the prices of the clinics you compare. For a fair assessment, all included procedures, materials, transport, accommodation and any additional trips must be taken into account. Once the treatment plan is set, you can compare the quote you receive with offers from clinics in Germany.
How many trips are needed for an implant?
As a rule, dental implant treatment may require at least two trips: one for the surgery and another for the final restoration. Between them there is an osseointegration period, which can last around 3–6 months. The exact number of visits depends on the clinical situation.
Can I get a treatment plan before I come to Sibiu?
You can send your X-rays, any available test results and information about your dental problems for a preliminary assessment. On that basis, we can discuss treatment options, estimated costs and the number of trips. The final plan is confirmed after the clinical consultation and the necessary examinations.
What warranty do I have, and what happens if a problem appears after I return home?
The Bredent implants used by Giadent Smile are covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, under the conditions it sets. If a problem appears, contact the clinic for guidance. Depending on the situation, a local check-up or a re-evaluation in Sibiu may be needed. The exact warranty conditions should be clarified before treatment.
In which languages can you assist me?
For consultations and communication in Romanian, English or German, please state your preferred language when you request an appointment, so that the clinic can confirm that support is available in that language.
How do I get to Sibiu from Germany or Austria?
You can reach Sibiu by plane or by car. For air travel, check the available routes to Sibiu International Airport and any connections. Before booking transport, confirm with the doctor how long the treatment will take and when it is safe to travel after the procedure.
Where can I stay during treatment?
Sibiu has hotels and serviced apartments for short or longer stays. We recommend choosing accommodation with easy access to the Giadent Smile clinic, located at 1 Gladiolelor Street, and booking once your medical schedule is confirmed.
Can I have All-on-4 in a single trip?
In some cases, placing the implants and fitting a fixed temporary restoration can be done during the same trip. The final restoration usually requires a later stage, after healing. Whether immediate loading is possible depends on the stability of the implants and on the medical assessment.
What documents do I need?
For the preliminary assessment, recent X-rays or CBCT scans, your dental treatment history and information about any conditions, allergies or medication you take are useful. For travel, you need the identity documents appropriate to your citizenship and chosen route. The clinic can tell you which additional medical documents are needed.
How is the final price determined?
The final price is set after the clinical consultation and the necessary examinations. The quote takes into account the recommended procedures, the number of implants, the type of prosthetic work, the materials used and any additional procedures. Before treatment begins, you should receive an explanation of the costs and the proposed stages.
