Professional profile

Experience and approach

My path in dental medicine

I am Pia Slana, a doctor of dental medicine and a dentist at OrthoDental. I completed my studies at the School of Dental Medicine, University of Zagreb, in 2024. From my third year onward, I gained clinical experience across different areas of dentistry as part of my studies.

After graduating, I continued my professional training with an internship in a dental practice in Zagreb. I now work in Ljubljana and continue to develop my clinical knowledge and experience.

Prosthodontics and treatment planning

I am particularly interested in prosthodontics and implantology from the perspective of treatment planning. My master’s thesis, “Prosthodontically Driven Dental Implant Therapy – Chairside Protocol”, examined prosthetically driven implant planning and its clinical application.

This background helps me plan functional and aesthetic prosthetic solutions. When treatment includes a surgical implant stage, care is coordinated with the oral surgeon.

My clinical work

At OrthoDental I treat children, teenagers and adults. My work includes preventive examinations, conservative and root-canal treatment, fixed and removable prosthodontics, straightforward extractions and aesthetic dentistry.

I focus on accurate diagnosis and individual treatment planning so that function and appearance are aligned with each patient’s needs. I also became a certified Invisalign provider in 2024 and use modern clear-aligner approaches where appropriate.

A calm and understandable approach

I want every patient to understand what the examination shows and what options are available. Before treatment I explain the proposed steps and make room for questions.

I know that a dental visit can feel uncomfortable or stressful. I aim to create a relaxed relationship where kindness and a little humour are part of the experience. Outside work I enjoy sport, knitting and baking cakes.

Good to know

For children, teenagers and adults

Care is adapted to the patient’s age, oral health and previous experiences. For children, a gradual approach matters; for teenagers, protecting teeth during orthodontic treatment is important; and for adults, prevention, treatment and prosthodontics are considered together.

Your visit

What happens during an examination?

The visit begins with a conversation about the reason for attending and any symptoms. Pia examines the teeth, gums, existing fillings and prosthetic work. When needed, appropriate diagnostics are added before she explains the findings, available options and recommended next steps.
