IDEA Dental Clinic

IDEA Dental Clinic (სტომატოლოგიური კლინიკა იდეა) is a multi-speciality dental practice located at 47 Simon Kandelaki Street in Tbilisi, Georgia. The clinic describes itself as Georgia's first international dental education clinic, a distinction that reflects its dual commitment to delivering high-quality patient care and advancing clinical education within the Georgian dental profession. It operates Monday through Saturday from 10:00 to 19:00 and provides comprehensive dental services to both adults and children.

The clinic's designation as a dental education institution means that clinical standards are maintained at the level required for teaching and knowledge transfer, with practitioners expected to demonstrate both technical proficiency and an up-to-date understanding of contemporary dental science. For patients, this translates into treatment delivered within a rigorous clinical environment where best practice is continuously reviewed and applied.

Implantology at IDEA Dental Clinic is led by Dimitri Gogoladze and Buba Chachkhiani, both of whom also practise oral surgery. Dental implants provide a permanent replacement for missing teeth, with a titanium fixture placed into the jaw bone and a custom crown fitted on top once osseointegration is complete. The clinic's surgical team handles preparatory procedures including extractions and bone assessment, and carries out implant placements with precision planning based on radiological assessment. Chachkhiani's combined expertise in orthopedics, implantology, and surgery enables him to manage cases that cross between prosthetic planning and surgical execution — a capacity that is particularly valuable in complex full-arch restorations.

Orthodontics at IDEA is led by Alexi Bagashvili, who assesses and treats patients requiring bite correction and tooth alignment. The clinic offers orthodontic solutions for patients of all ages, from children whose bite is developing and may benefit from early intervention, to adults seeking discreet or traditional fixed appliance treatment. Orthodontic planning at the clinic is integrated with radiological assessment, ensuring that treatment is based on a thorough understanding of underlying skeletal and dental structure.

Periodontology — the treatment of gum disease and conditions affecting the bone and tissue that support the teeth — is a specialist focus shared by Tamar Dgebuadze, Eliso Tsatsanashvili, and Ana Totiauri. Gum disease, if left untreated, can lead to bone loss and eventual tooth loss, and the clinic's periodontal team provides professional deep cleaning, root planing, and ongoing maintenance programmes to control disease progression. Periodontal health is treated as a prerequisite for implant placement and cosmetic procedures, reflecting the clinic's structured, evidence-based approach to treatment sequencing.

Therapeutic dentistry, covering everyday restorative and preventive care, is provided by several members of the team including Tamar Mghebrishvili, Tamar Dgebuadze, Eliso Tsatsanashvili, and Ana Totiauri. Services include composite fillings, root canal treatment (endodontics) to save infected or damaged teeth, crown placement, and professional cleaning. Regular prevention appointments and dental hygiene consultations are a core part of the clinic's offer, with emphasis placed on preserving natural teeth through consistent preventive care.

Oral and maxillofacial surgery is carried out by Dimitri Gogoladze, Eliso Tsatsanashvili, and Buba Chachkhiani. Surgical services include tooth extractions, surgical removal of impacted wisdom teeth, and procedures that prepare the jaw for implant placement. The availability of in-house oral surgery means that patients do not need to be referred to an external facility for surgical stages of their treatment, maintaining continuity of care throughout what can be multi-stage treatment plans.

Radiology services at the clinic support diagnostic precision across all specialities. Tamar Dgebuadze and Ana Totiauri both have radiology training, enabling the team to interpret imaging findings in the context of the broader clinical picture. Accurate radiology is essential for implant planning, orthodontic assessment, and the diagnosis of bone and periodontal conditions that may not be apparent from visual examination alone.

Orthopedic dentistry — covering crowns, bridges, dentures, and complex prosthetic rehabilitation — is a further area of expertise at IDEA, with Buba Chachkhiani's orthopedic specialisation ensuring that final prosthetic restorations are planned and fabricated to a high standard. This is particularly relevant for patients undergoing full-mouth rehabilitation or implant-supported prosthetics, where the aesthetic and functional outcome depends heavily on the quality of prosthetic planning.

Paediatric dental care is provided for children, with the team experienced in managing young patients in a calm and supportive environment. Children are treated for caries, monitored for bite development, and given preventive treatments to protect primary and permanent teeth as they emerge.

Georgia's growing reputation as a dental tourism destination is built on a foundation of qualified practitioners, modern facilities, and treatment costs that are substantially below those of Western European and North American markets. IDEA Dental Clinic's combination of specialist depth, educational credentials, and comprehensive coverage across implantology, orthodontics, periodontology, surgery, and therapeutics makes it a compelling option for international patients seeking a single clinic capable of managing complex dental needs during a visit to Tbilisi.
