Impression Dent is a specialist aesthetic dental clinic in Sofia, Bulgaria, founded by Dr. Ibrahim Byalev, a dentist with eight years of focused experience in dental aesthetics. The clinic has built a distinct identity at the intersection of high-end cosmetic dentistry, advanced digital technology, and media presence -- with the team's work featured in the bTV reality program "My New Me" and the spin-off series "New Smile, New Self." From Hollywood smile transformations and Invisalign treatment to cutting-edge jaw diagnostics and dental stem cell preservation, Impression Dent operates at the frontier of contemporary dental practice.
The Clinical Team
Dr. Ibrahim Byalev, founder and lead aesthetic dentist, brings eight years of expertise in smile design, veneers, zirconia crowns, and cosmetic rehabilitation.

Dr. Boyan Sandalov is a master's-qualified implantologist and oral surgeon, a graduate of the Medical University of Sofia and a member of the Bulgarian Dental Association. He leads the clinic's implant and surgical cases with precision and clinical depth.
Dr. Karteva specializes in endodontics and has gone on to teach at the Faculty of Dental Medicine at Plovdiv Medical University, reflecting the academic standard of clinical knowledge she brings to root canal treatments at the clinic.

Dr. Milanova brings nine years of clinical experience with a strong focus on precision and aesthetic detail in restorative work.
Hollywood Smile and Aesthetic Dentistry
Aesthetic treatment is the heart of Impression Dent's clinical offering. The Hollywood smile program encompasses the full spectrum of cosmetic procedures: zirconia crowns for complete tooth coverage with a natural, luminous appearance; porcelain veneers for a transformative improvement in shape, color, and alignment; composite bonding for conservative corrections; and full aesthetic restorations for patients needing extensive rebuilding of their dentition. Professional in-chair whitening and home whitening systems are available for patients seeking a brighter smile without restorative work. Laser dentistry -- including gingival contouring -- allows the team to sculpt gum lines as part of comprehensive smile design, ensuring that both teeth and gums contribute to a balanced aesthetic result.
Orthodontics and Invisalign
Impression Dent is a certified Invisalign provider, offering the full range of Invisalign aligner treatments for adults and teenagers. The team manages straightforward cases through to complex multidisciplinary cases where Invisalign is combined with restorative or surgical treatment. Conventional fixed orthodontic treatment is also available. Pediatric orthodontic consultations and treatment are provided for children and adolescents to address alignment and bite development at the optimal stage of dental development.
Advanced Diagnostics: Modjaw 4D
One of the most technically sophisticated offerings at Impression Dent is Modjaw 4D diagnostics -- a motion capture-based system that records and analyzes jaw movement in four dimensions, combining 3D spatial data with temporal (time-based) analysis. This system provides clinicians with detailed information about condylar movement, bite dynamics, and temporomandibular joint function that cannot be obtained from conventional static X-rays. Modjaw data is particularly valuable for treatment planning in patients with occlusal disorders, bruxism, TMJ dysfunction, or cases requiring precise prosthetic design.
Digital Impressions with 3Shape
The clinic uses 3Shape intraoral scanning for digital impressions, replacing traditional impression materials with a fast, comfortable, and highly accurate digital workflow. Digital impressions feed directly into CAD/CAM design processes for crowns, veneers, aligners, and other restorations, reducing the margin for error and eliminating the need for patients to undergo the discomfort of conventional impression-taking.
Implantology and Oral Surgery
Led by Dr. Sandalov, the implant and oral surgery department provides single and multiple implant placement, implant-supported prosthetics, and surgical procedures including tooth extractions and pre-implant preparation. Implant cases are planned using digital data from the clinic's diagnostic systems to ensure precise placement and optimal long-term outcomes.
Innovative Additional Services
Impression Dent offers several services that are genuinely rare in the dental landscape. Dental stem cell preservation allows patients to bank stem cells harvested from extracted teeth for potential future medical use -- a service at the intersection of dentistry and regenerative medicine. Genetic testing provides patients with personalized information relevant to their dental health and treatment planning. A curated dental jewelry collection including Grillz adds a fashion-forward dimension to the clinic's offering for patients interested in dental accessories. All of these services reflect the clinic's commitment to being at the very edge of what modern dental practice can provide.
With an active presence on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn, Impression Dent communicates its work and values to a large online audience, making it one of Sofia's most visible and progressive dental practices.
