Dental Centar Grzela is a modern, fully digital dental clinic located in Zagreb, Croatia. Led by a multidisciplinary team of dentists and supported by an in-house digital dental laboratory, the clinic delivers comprehensive oral care ranging from routine restorative dentistry to full-arch implant restorations and complete smile makeovers. Dental Centar Grzela is recognized for its patient-centered approach, advanced digital workflow, and the ability to visualize treatment outcomes before any procedure begins.
Why Choose Dental Centar Grzela
Dental Centar Grzela stands apart through three core commitments. First, the clinic operates on a fully digital protocol: a 3Shape intraoral scanner replaces traditional impression trays, and CAD/CAM technology enables precision prosthetic fabrication in a fraction of the time required by conventional labs. Second, patients can preview their new smile before committing to treatment. Using a digital design workflow, the planned result is 3D-printed and temporarily applied over the patient's unaltered teeth, so the final aesthetic is confirmed before any preparation begins. Third, all prosthetic work is produced on-site by 3DLab, the clinic's own digital dental laboratory staffed by more than 20 dental technicians and designers, ensuring full quality control from design to delivery.
Treatments and Specialties
The clinic provides a full spectrum of dental services under one roof. In cosmetic dentistry, the team specializes in ceramic veneers, composite veneers (both injectable and freehand technique), teeth whitening, and full smile design. Prosthodontics and implant dentistry cover single-tooth implants, multi-unit implant-supported bridges, All-on-4 and All-on-6 full-arch rehabilitations, zirconia crowns, and removable prosthetics. Restorative and endodontic care includes composite fillings, cavity removal, and root canal treatment. The clinic also offers laser periodontology using the Waterlase system for gum disease treatment, orthodontics with clear aligners (Easy to Smile system), metal braces, and aesthetic white brackets, and a dedicated pediatric dentistry service designed to build positive dental experiences from the earliest age.
Team and Credentials
The clinical team is led by Dr. Lea Grzela, dr. med. dent., alongside Dr. Antonela Matulj, dr. med. dent., and Dr. Jadranka Vrcan Boric, dr. med. dent. Each dentist is specialized in a defined clinical area, ensuring patients receive focused expertise rather than generalist care. The laboratory division is directed by Aron Grzela, dental technician and laboratory director, who oversees the 3DLab team. Where needed, external specialists are brought in to support complex or multi-disciplinary cases.
Facilities and Technology
The clinic runs a fully integrated digital workflow. The 3Shape intraoral scanner eliminates traditional impression materials, delivering fast and precise digital scans. CAD/CAM milling technology produces prosthetics in-house with high accuracy. The in-house 3DLab digital dental laboratory handles all ceramic, zirconia, and resin restorations. RVG and retroalveolar X-ray imaging is available on-site for diagnostics. The Waterlase laser system supports periodontal treatments with enhanced tissue response.

The team speaks Croatian and can accommodate international inquiries. Payment is flexible, with options for cash, card (single payment), or interest-free installment plans through Diners (up to 36 installments) and PBZ cards (up to 12 installments).
