Poliklinika Šlaj-Anić

Poliklinika Slaj-Anic is one of the most academically distinguished and comprehensively equipped dental and dermatology polyclinics in Zagreb, Croatia. The clinic's roots trace back more than 30 years, when Professor Mladen Slaj and Professor Ivica Anic - two of Croatia's most respected academic clinicians - opened a joint private practice together. In 2009, they inaugurated the current Slaj-Anic Polyclinic at Stoosova Street 26, near Kvaternik Square in central Zagreb, equipping the facility with the latest clinical technologies and assembling a medical team of specialist clinicians and academic community members. Today, the polyclinic occupies over 1,000 square metres of purpose-designed clinical space, comprising nine fully-equipped dental offices, three dermatology examination rooms, a dedicated dental surgery operating room, and an in-house 3D dental laboratory.

The founding by two university professors is not merely a historical footnote - it profoundly shapes the clinic's character and standards. Many of the polyclinic's clinical staff are members of the academic community at the University of Zagreb School of Dental Medicine, bringing research-informed practice, access to the latest evidence, and an educational ethos to their clinical work. Continuous investment in modern medical technology ensures that Poliklinika Slaj-Anic consistently ranks among the most technologically advanced polyclinics in Croatia. The clinic's interdisciplinary model - co-locating dental medicine and dermatology specialists within a single 1,000+ square-metre facility - allows for the coordinated, holistic patient care that complex aesthetic and medical cases often require.

Technology & Facilities

Poliklinika Slaj-Anic's clinical infrastructure represents a sustained, strategic investment in the technology that enables superior dental and medical outcomes. The facility's in-house 3D dental laboratory - equipped with CAD/CAM technology - allows for the digital design and precision fabrication of prosthetic restorations on-site. This capability shortens treatment timelines, tightens quality control, and enables the clinical team to verify the precision of restorations before delivery to the patient.

The polyclinic is equipped with the latest digital dental X-ray technology, operated by specialist radiographic technicians who ensure that imaging is both diagnostically optimal and conducted with the lowest achievable patient radiation exposure. The nine dental offices are furnished and equipped to the standard expected of a leading academic-clinical institution, and the dedicated dental surgery operating room provides the controlled environment required for complex implant and oral surgical procedures. All facilities are maintained to EU clinical and sterilisation standards, with continuous investment in new technologies as they achieve clinical validation.
