When it comes to innovations in modern dentistry, his name is sure to come up – all over the world: Prof. Dr. med. dent, Dr. h.c. (mult.) Anton Sculean is one of a select few specialist dentists with an international reputation! The renowned specialist in periodontology has been Director of the Department of Periodontology at the University of Bern’s Dental Clinics since 2008. Thanks to his specialist dental experience spanning over two decades and his outstanding international reputation, Prof. Sculean has been awarded the Leading Medicine Guide 2021 seal of approval.
Bern, April 2021 – As early as 1997, Prof. Dr. med. dent, Dr. h.c. (mult.) Anton Sculean was recognized as a specialist in periodontology – long before he became head of the clinic in Bern. But even back then, when he was heading up dental departments at renowned clinics in Germany and the Netherlands, his work focused on periodontal wound healing and regenerative and plastic-aesthetic periodontal therapy.
In addition to laser applications, he performs most treatments using minimally invasive techniques. He primarily treats patients with particularly complex dental conditions – such as those with exposed tooth necks, teeth that are more mobile than average, or gums that bleed frequently.
Prof. Sculean is also a prime example of the theory that cutting-edge medicine can only function with a correspondingly high degree of empathy. The specialist wins over his patients simply through his friendly manner – and can thus rely on their complete trust. He repays this trust: in his work, Prof. Dr. med. dent, Dr. h.c. (mult.) Anton Sculean combines clinical practice with laboratory-based research, so that he can then apply the respective scientific findings directly for the benefit of his patients.
Highly recognized worldwide for his basic research
This unique combination of clinical practice and basic research has, over the last two decades, led to the development of new methods for regenerating lost gum tissue and alveolar bone, which are now routinely used in treatment. In other words: Prof. Sculean has set new standards on multiple occasions.
In addition to the treatment and long-term care of all forms of gum disease, including the placement of implants, Prof. Sculean, together with a top-class team, advises his patients in state-of-the-art treatment rooms.
The award of the Leading Medicine Guide 2021 seal guarantees that Professor Dr. med. dent, Dr. h.c. (mult.) Anton Sculean will continue to be listed on the leading online specialist portal. This ensures that those interested and those affected by serious dental conditions are immediately directed to the right expert.
