SEAdent Polyclinic is a privately owned, multidisciplinary dental clinic located in Viskovo, a quiet residential area just outside Rijeka, Croatia. Situated at Vozisce 31, the polyclinic was established by the founders of the well-regarded Sea Dental laboratory — a successor to the historic Dental Laboratory Marin Grabovac, which was among the pioneers of CAD/CAM technology in the Rijeka region. Today, SEAdent operates as a fully integrated dental polyclinic, combining clinical expertise with an in-house prosthetic laboratory to deliver end-to-end dental solutions under one roof.
SEAdent Polyclinic attracts a growing base of international patients from Italy, Slovenia, and Austria, drawn by the clinic's reputation for offering top-tier dental care at significantly more accessible price points than comparable Western European practices. The clinic is conveniently positioned approximately 67 kilometres from Trieste and just 34 kilometres from Rijeka Airport, making it highly accessible for cross-border dental tourists. Private on-site parking is available, and the Viskovo location offers excellent road links to all parts of Rijeka and the broader Kvarner Bay region.
Treatments & Specialties
SEAdent offers a comprehensive range of dental services spanning from routine diagnostics through to complex surgical and prosthetic procedures. The clinic's core specialisations include:
- Implantology — placement of single implants, multiple implants, and full-arch implant-supported restorations
- Oral Surgery — complex extractions, bone grafting, sinus lifts, and other surgical interventions
- Prosthetics — crowns, bridges, dentures, and implant-supported prosthetic restorations produced in the in-house Sea Dental laboratory
- Periodontology — diagnosis and treatment of gum disease, including surgical periodontal therapy
- Dental Aesthetics — veneers, teeth whitening, and smile design
- Conservative Dental Medicine — fillings, root canal treatment, and preventive care
- Prevention and Dental Health — hygiene appointments, scaling, and patient education
The close integration between the clinical team and the Sea Dental prosthetic laboratory accelerates turnaround times for prosthetic restorations, which is a significant advantage for international patients travelling to Viskovo on condensed treatment schedules.
Technology & Facilities
SEAdent Polyclinic invests in modern diagnostic and treatment technologies to support its range of specialist procedures. The affiliated Sea Dental laboratory is equipped with state-of-the-art CAD/CAM milling and design systems, enabling the digital design and precision manufacturing of crowns, bridges, and implant-supported prostheses. CAD/CAM-fabricated restorations are renowned for their accuracy of fit and consistent aesthetic outcomes.
The clinical environment is designed to accommodate complex surgical procedures, including bone augmentation and sinus lift surgeries, which are often prerequisites for implant placement in patients with reduced bone volume. Digital imaging and radiographic diagnostics support precise treatment planning across all specialties. The clinic operates by appointment only, ensuring each patient receives dedicated time and individual attention throughout their treatment journey in Viskovo.
