Philosophy
Our philosophy views patients as a whole, with all their problems and needs on various levels, and together we seek an individually tailored treatment concept. The aim is to provide optimal and comprehensive care over the long term.
Our main focus is on providing the most biological care possible (minimally invasive dentistry) using state-of-the-art, metal-free materials (Cerec). We carry out even complex treatments with crowns, bridges, implants, or implant-supported prostheses completely metal-free.

I was born on March 6, 1975, in Padua, Italy. After completing my studies, I moved to Zurich to be with my then partner and now wife. This is also where I began my professional career, thanks to which I have been able to acquire extensive expertise in various fields over the past 15 years. I am married and have a son. My hobbies include cycling (preferably over all possible Swiss mountain passes), playing soccer, skiing, and reading. I speak German, Italian, and English.

Teethan – the most advanced
digital technology for analyzing
of dental occlusion.
As a dentist, I rely on an innovative, non-invasive, digital diagnostic tool: the Teethan electromyograph. In just a few minutes and without any pain, I can scientifically and objectively determine the occlusion parameters and the stomatognathic condition. The therapeutic measures will then reactivate neuromuscular activity, reduce local and general pain, and restore balance.
In particular, pain in the temporomandibular joint, chewing muscles, neck, cervical difficulties, headaches, parafunctions (e.g., bruxism), atypical swallowing, malocclusion, or missing teeth are very common problems that are often interrelated or connected to other areas of the body (postural disorders).
Science and literature have now clarified and documented that our teeth, the joint of the mouth, the head, the neck, and the rest of our body form a unit that works in coordination and strives to be energetically efficient.
