MIJA KALIŠNIK, dental hygienist
After completing my education as a dental technician, I continued my studies at the technical school for dental hygienists and successfully completed the programme as part of the first generation in 2006. I gained my many years of experience in more than ten private practices, where I had the opportunity to work with the best experts in the field of dentistry in Slovenia. This is how I came across various approaches and methods of work for a comprehensive treatment of patients.
Since I am aware of the importance of continuing education, I regularly update my knowledge at seminars and courses at home and abroad.
My philosophy is to offer patients a professional, thorough, and high-quality service in a friendly, technologically advanced environment.
In cooperation with the patient, I strive to keep their oral health, since a healthy smile helps ameliorate the quality of life in a significant manner.
To ensure effective, safe, and friendly performance of service, I rely on proven diagnostic methods, long-term experience, effective health procedures, and high-quality methods and materials.
The emphasis is placed on the education of the patient on how to prevent the disease while maintaining oral health. My relationship with my patients is built on honesty, trust, and empathy. In order to ensure the right solution for each patient, I treat them on a case-to-case basis, in accordance with their needs and financial capacities.
I am sure that nowadays, with the knowledge we have at our disposal, no one should have problems with loss of teeth due to periodontal disease.
I’ve always been a very active person. My love for sport, desire to learn, constant curiosity, and training have brought me the licence of an instructor of the Gyrotonic and Gyrokinesis method. In order to gain an even more comprehensive understanding of the body and the sense of self, I am currently also terminating my studies in physiotherapy.
Whenever I can, I love to spend my time with the people I love. I like to be in nature, in motion, surfing on waves with a kite in my hands; I also like reading, I appreciate life and human warmth. I firmly believe that how people feel in your presence is more important than what you have achieved in your life. Live and let live.
