We are two friends who have been looking for a solution to serious, unresolved problems with our poor teeth for years... We've read many of these patient comments and felt like we were reliving our own experiences... We agree with …

Dear Fiorenza and Mery, hearing patients' praise is wonderful, but hearing that, in addition to the medical results achieved, the patient feels at home in a dental practice is more than we could have hoped for. We are happy and honored. Thank you so much, and see you soon.
I have been a patient of Dental Studio Vukanović for several years and I write this recommendation from the bottom of my heart. Doctor Dean is, above all, professional and patient, and he always explains everything to each patient in detail, calmly and in simple terms at the beginning of the therapy. The entire team is extremely kind and calm, so I felt completely relaxed every time. The crown I…

recently had looks perfectly natural, and all the procedures were done without any stress or pain. If you are looking for a place where professionalism and humanity perfectly combine, I warmly recommend Dental Studio Vukanović.

Dear Gordana, thank you for your words and recommendation. The trust of our patients that has lasted for years is the greatest compliment we can give. Thank you for that too.
Genetically I have very bad teeth, which I further ruined with my pathological negligence, which over the years turned into a severe trauma... For the last 7-8 years I would wake up in the morning and think whether to brush my teeth or kill myself because of how bad I felt about my teeth, both aesthetically and health-wise because infections and all the other joys would appear 😅... my mouth was…

worse than the Bakhmut that Wagner went through, the Middle East after the Saxon Spring, it's not a popular comparison but it's a complete fact of life and reality ... The doctor suggested what would be best and that's how we started... 6 implants up and 6 down ... starting with the upper jaw, after a few days we did the lower one ... I didn't have any pain during the surgery, because of the anesthesia, but I expected severe pain the next day, however, they didn't appear which is incredible and still unclear to me ... my biggest phobias are cameras and needles, and when you do new teeth everything revolves around cameras and needles 😅 ...if you don't have a problem with the machine and needles, the dentist's chair is your least problem, the next biggest problem if you do these kinds of procedures will be a sweaty back because you sit in the chair for quite a long time and that's it, change your shirt and you're good ....the doctor won't admit it to me but I believe that I was one of the most demanding projects he had, I pulled every drop of expertise and patience out of that man 😅, I like to believe that I made him an even better expert, which means all the rest of you who come after me, you will have a major general for a dentist...and if you have replacement teeth before the finals, don't go so far as to bite your nails with them or spar with the guys in the boxing gym😊, you will have to give up some things ...I wish you all the best ...love you Zoka

Zoran, thank you and - keep going with a smile. We may have done a great and we believe good job, but the biggest step was taken by you! Bravo for your determination, courage and now it's time to smile. Good luck and be happy going forward!
Today I went back to Dr. Vukanovic to have a small touch-up done on his work done 6 years ago... I found the usual availability, professionalism and punctuality... I spent half an hour in complete relaxation because the doctor knows how to relax a patient who is really afraid of the dentist... for now I don't have any major problems but for me Dean will always be my dentist 🤗🤗

Dear Livia, thank you so much. We are grateful for your kind words and for your trust.
I chose Studio Vukanovic because friends recommended it to me, and from the first phone call, I was instilled with trust. I'm not an easy person to please, but they were excellent. I was greeted with great warmth and kindness by Dean and …

Dear Monica, we sincerely thank you for this warm and detailed review. We are delighted that you felt confident from the first contact and that your experience at our practice was positive in every way. It is a great pleasure to know that you felt welcomed, listened to, and cared for by our team, and that our work met your expectations.

A huge thank you for your trust and for the wonderful words you dedicated to us. Best regards from our entire team!
A year and a half ago, I started researching dental clinics in Croatia because my mom had been to a very well-known clinic and was very pleased! I carefully considered what I wanted my new dentist to be like, and miraculously, I ended up in his hands! Thanks especially to his wife, Maria, who understood what I was looking for and who I was dealing with! A wonderful person, knowledgeable, but above…

all meticulous, she leaves nothing to chance! The result was an excellent result in a beautiful journey that I would do all over again if I were to go back! It's certainly not a walk in the park, but having completely changed my mouth, let's say it was like a beautiful marathon. It's tough, but when you reach the finish line, the joy is uncontainable! The only difference is that Dean and his staff deserve the medal because they make you feel like a special patient even after 25 years of practice! Congratulations to everyone, and keep up the good work!!!!

Thank you very much, Davide, for your heartfelt words. Being recognized as we have been by her means, for us, sharing largely the same values and understanding the profession in a way that includes - but goes beyond - pure technical expertise: responsibility, dedication, continuous desire to improve ourselves, but also empathy. Just like in a marathon, every step counts and is essential for the success of the race :) Having the privilege of earning the trust of patients like her — attentive, determined and sensitive to quality — makes the journey even more rewarding. We are happy to be able to cross the finish line together! 🦷💪
We were lucky enough to discover this dental practice while browsing the internet. The reviews were all 5 stars (except one... the only one not signed), so we decided to go get a quote. We were greeted by the very kind Mrs. Maria, wife of the legendary Dr. Dean. We knew right away we'd come to the right place. A special bond was formed right away. We've never found a dentist so cutting-edge, so…

knowledgeable, so up-to-date... SPECIAL to say the least. He did a fantastic job for me, Monica, and everything went great! We wanted to thank the entire team from the bottom of our hearts. Because of my teeth, I had lost the will to smile, and now I wouldn't do anything else! Obviously, even though we're from Verona, Dr. Dean has become our trusted dentist and will always be. We recommend this dental practice to everyone! It's truly cutting-edge! Thanks again and a huge smile from us to all of you! Monica and Andrea. P.S.: I'm adding two photos, the first with the temporary on top and my teeth underneath as they were before and the second with the work finished!

Dear Monica and Andrea, We thank you so much for your wonderful words, which truly touched us. We're delighted that your experience in our studio was so positive and that from our first meeting you felt you were in the right place. It was a pleasure to welcome you and accompany you every step of the way. Knowing that Monica is smiling again today with confidence and serenity is the greatest satisfaction for us: it's exactly why we do this work with such passion. We are deeply grateful for your trust, especially considering the distance, and for appreciating our commitment, our preparation, and our technology. A special thank you also from Maria and the entire team for the wonderful bond we've created. Your photos and your enthusiasm are a precious gift to us. We send you a huge smile and warmest regards from our entire team!
I have been a regular and satisfied patient for over 20 years. Very professional, kind and attentive! And most importantly, always up to date with the times and innovations! I brought my wife to solve the problems that were dragging on, and …

Dear Erika, thank you from the bottom of my heart, both for your kind words (and photos!) and for guiding your three musketeers in the best direction :)) It is a great joy and privilege to take care of the teeth of such a cheerful and handsome family. Greetings from the whole team!
Dr. Dean Vukanovic is particularly attentive to detail, as well as being a kind person. I had a great experience with this clinic.

Thank you so much, Luca, for your kind words. We're truly pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay with us. Attention to detail is a tangible way for us to care for people with respect and compassion, combining it with our passion for dentistry. Having patients like you, who request and appreciate this attention, inspires us to continue on our path with enthusiasm. See you soon!
After several unsatisfactory experiences with dental care in Italy, I decided to rely on a clinic in Croatia. After requesting several quotes, my choice fell without a doubt on the Vukanovic Clinic, even though it was the one with the …

Dear Silvia, we are truly flattered by your words. We are truly delighted when patients understand and perceive the seriousness, responsibility, and humanity with which we approach our work, and when they realize that we are unwilling to compromise in the materials and technologies we use. When you add to this a patient like yourself, who places complete trust in us and follows all our advice and recommendations to the letter, the result can only be fantastic. Thank you again for your trust and your wonderful review.
It's not your typical clinic with interns and 12 chairs, and that's what made me choose Dental Studio VUKANOVIC I wanted to thank you so much for your professionalism and hospitality... we felt right at home. I sincerely thank Dr. Dean, the staff, and Maria, who pampered us from the moment we first arrived. A heartfelt thank you to everyone...I'll keep you updated on the progress in the coming…

Thank you so much, Gianluca, for both your trust and your kind words. See you next time! Warm regards from Fiume.
My smile has been a problem for me my whole life. I never smiled in photos, and even meeting new people made me feel uncomfortable because I knew I'd be showing off my teeth. Luckily, I turned to this practice, whose expert staff solved my problem (a gap in my teeth) with invisible aligners in just a few months. Now my teeth are the way I've always wanted them to be. I can be the cheerful person I…

Dear Loris, we're so happy you enjoyed your stay with us and that you're happy with the results. We always look forward to welcoming you back. Thank you again for everything!
Good morning, I'm writing this review to acknowledge the commendable treatment provided by the entire staff at the Vukanovic Practice, both on a human and professional level. I'm a loyal patient at the aforementioned practice, where I've always received a warm welcome in a family atmosphere, not to mention that it's a place of care 😀. Dr. Dean's professional skills are now well-established,…

earning me my full trust, admiration, and, if Dean allows, even friendship. I've known Dr. Dean since the 1990s. I had the pleasure of meeting him through some of my loved ones. He's a man of undeniable humanity and commendable professionalism. He's always put the patient's needs first, leaving his own behind, sacrificing himself for others without sparing himself. I'm honored to know him. His team also deserves a special mention, as they operate with equal professionalism. Among them, I'd like to highlight Ms. Maja, who is always smiling and welcoming. I thank all the staff for the love and passion they show for our patients. Thank you 🤗🖐 G.

Dear Giovanni, thank you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts! Your kind words and your trust are a huge incentive for us to continue in the direction we chose almost 30 years ago! We're always here waiting for you with warm regards. Best regards from the entire team!
I had a great experience; I finally found the desire to smile again. I felt right at home. My teeth have always been a big problem; I was embarrassed to smile and even to speak because I didn't feel comfortable. Then fate introduced me to this wonderful clinic, where I finally found the desire to show off my BEAUTIFUL SMILE! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Dear Cinzia, thank you for your kind words and for the joy you brought to the studio, as well as for the enthusiasm that carried us all through the end of one of the most beautiful and fun photo shoots we've ever had in our studio. Thanks again for everything and best wishes for many, many smiles!
Absolute excellence just a few kilometers from the Italian border. A year ago, I began a long journey with Dr. Vukanovich's practice to restore my teeth, as between old amalgam fillings that had reached the end of their useful life and COVID, I had neglected myself for quite some time. I was extremely satisfied with the result and the conservative approach, which allowed me to save some teeth…

without having to undergo root canal treatment (where possible, of course). Finally, as other users have already mentioned, the invoices are European invoices and there are no problems deducting them in Italy. Best regards, and see you in a few months for your checkup.

Thank you so much, Giancarlo, for your testimony! It truly means a lot to us.
We waited a while before leaving a final review. There were no doubts about the studio's professionalism from the first meeting; everything was excellent. Let's get to the work done: both my wife and I did a very important job, and we're very happy with the result. He's very meticulous in his work, which is also why I gave him 5 stars and highly recommend him. I'll schedule a follow-up appointment…

ALWAYS issues invoices in accordance with current EU regulations, and therefore also in Italy. There are NO problems with tax deductions as required by law. Someone wrote that there would be difficulties, ABSOLUTELY NOT! I have nothing else to add, except to sincerely recommend contacting Studio VUCANOVIC. It's worth it, with fair and attractive prices...especially for Italians. All the best to...EVERYONE!
I completed major double-arch implant surgery at Dental Studio Vukanović, which took 18 months to complete. I'm pleased to share my completely POSITIVE and ENTHUSIASTIC review, hoping it can be helpful to those who, like me about two years ago, are struggling to choose a clinic. In 2021, I independently organized a several-day trip to Rijeka, Croatia, to take advantage of the free initial…

consultation offered by various clinics, from the most renowned, vast, and sprawling to the smaller, more intimate and reassuring ones. I chose Dr. Dean Vukanović's clinic for the professionalism with which he offered me a completely personalized medical opinion after a very thorough and meticulous initial consultation, unlike other clinics where, after just a few minutes in the chair, I was offered a standard product. This decision proved to be the right one over time, procedure after procedure, as I gained more and more confidence and trust in the doctor's work. He treated me personally throughout the entire process, which I found invaluable. I also discovered that the fear of such complex dental work is completely unjustified when I found myself facing lengthy procedures with ease and without pain. From the first moment, Mrs. Maria welcomed me with great care and empathy, escorting me to Dr. Dean's chair, from which, through the large windows, you can see half the sky and the other half the sea. Maria is the true front-woman and first contact of the clinic. With patience, great care, and professionalism, she helped me organize subsequent trips, find comfortable accommodations at truly affordable prices, and fulfill every request I had... even the most pedantic ones! Today I'm truly happy to have chosen Dental Studio Vukanović (which has now become my family clinic, including for routine checkups and annual dental cleanings). I'm writing this review with a sense of gratitude because, I know it may sound rhetorical, but regaining a confident smile is a great pleasure that gives you confidence, and I'd like to wish that same feeling to anyone reading this review as they search for a clinic to trust. Likewise, I'd like to wish for the same enthusiastic and satisfied look Dr. Vukanović gave me when he observed his thorough work in seeing me smile, a look that was worth more than any lifetime guarantee!

Dear Manuel, we've received so many positive reviews—and we're obviously very proud of them. Your review, however, stands out. Not only because it's so generous and beautiful, but also because it almost embarrasses us, knowing we won't be able to fully express how deeply your words touched our hearts and what they mean to us. Sorry, the reply is late. We always hope to find the time and the way to express a thought, an emotion calmly and clearly... but then we get stuck, either because the timing doesn't seem right or because we can't find the words. So, let's share today at least a simple but sincere THANK YOU, MANUEL! See you in the studio for your follow-up! Warmest regards from Fiume
