Conventional or minimally invasive?
In Dr Junk's former practice, minimally invasive implant approaches were used frequently from 2012 when anatomy and indication allowed. The aim was to reduce the extent of surgical access and, in some cases, the number of procedures. This is a historical account: today the technique must be selected by the treating dentist on the basis of diagnosis, imaging, bone quality and the individual situation.

Historical range of services
This archive documents a long-established dental practice in Berg am Laim/Trudering that was refurbished after around 50 years of activity and employed 5 dentists, 4 dental technicians and about 20 staff members in 400 m². The different dental specialties were available on weekdays throughout the year, including holiday periods and Friday afternoons, with early opening from 7:30 a.m. The team looked after patients' dental problems and preventive care.
The former practice's in-house dental laboratory provided follow-up service for dental prosthetics. Rapid denture repair: Dental prosthesis repairs could almost always be completed within a few hours.
Better than guessing: modern 3D imaging: directly at the former dental practice.
Aesthetic, metal-free, implant-supported high-tech restorations full-contour zirconia crowns:(lower risk of chipping).
custom titanium abutments: these were produced with modern milling equipment for optimal adaptation of implant crowns to the gingival contour.
The former team aimed to preserve healthy teeth; in the event of tooth loss it was possible to replace the tooth root immediately with immediate implant placement. The minimally invasive technique aimed to reduce pain. One advantage was that minimally invasive implant procedures could often avoid expensive bone augmentation. Patients were also given advance information about implant prices(from a German manufacturer), including 3D imaging (CBCT)formerly from EUR 1,150; each additional implanthistorically from EUR 950.
Exact costs were provided before treatment. To help prevent dental problems, the prophylaxis team cleaned teeth with a gentle powder jet and polishing brush. On request there was a recall service to keep gums healthy and protect valuable restorations, even if they had been made elsewhere. The former practice had dentists and specialists for prevention, cleaning, fillings, crowns, extractions, removable dentures and minimally invasive implant treatment. practice These treatments were provided in the former Munich practice. The dental team of the former practice was the point of contact.
The former

Detailed advice was provided on both medical aspects and costs. Because of the team structure, work could often be organised efficiently and therefore at lower cost at lower cost, saving time and sometimes money. At the time, patients could request a non-binding second opinion; advice was usually free of charge.
Web reference page
This archive was created to answer many questions about dentistry through multimedia material and clinical examples. During the active-practice years, the content was often used at the Munich practice to explain procedures. Patients could review the information at home and better understand decisions about their teeth. The images are deliberately realistic; anyone who does not want to see real photographs of the mouth should avoid the relevant galleries. A realistic image can explain more than many polished logos. Many patients reviewed the information before or after an appointment. questions historically sent to praxis@de-junk.de to the author and later collected in the FAQ The archived answers may still be useful for checking whether others have had similar problems. Today the site is solely for reading information about prosthetics, geriatric dentistry, dental aesthetics, gum problems and toothache The information does not replace an examination by your own dentist.
