- I was quite worried about implants. However Dr. Cristea assured my that as specialist in minimal invasive dentistry he would make sure that aftermath of the surgery would be hardly noticeable, not affecting my work schedule nor my social calendar. He was right. He placed an immediate implant the same day of the extraction. And just as he promised I had no pain and no swelling. Sounds unbelievable, but absolutely true. I took once one single pain killer afterwards as a precautionary measure and that was it. A fantastic job Dr. Cristea performed is all I can say.
Madeleine Stevens
- Having lived in Paris for 6 years and travelling a lot professionally I have quite an experience with dentists. I can just simply state that I have never visited a more professional, qualified, dedicated and manually gifted dentist in my life.
Diane Williams
- On my lower molar I had a slight soreness for some time, visiting several dentists. They all wanted to remove the tooth stating that I had an infectious cyst at the very tip of the root. I refused to accept having to lose my tooth and kept looking for alternatives. Dr. Cristea finally was the only dentist who gave me a solution to save my tooth, suggesting a root tip surgery called apicoectomy. The surgery in local anestesia went very well , took a good hour, and after one week I had perfectly recovered from just some minor swelling. I am really glad I kept searchig for the right specialist to preserve my own tooth. Amazing dentist with golden and gentle hands.

Igor Kwasniewsky

He takes all his time for you, even into his lunch time just to get the job done as accurately as possible and is never stressed.

Peter Mc Namara
- I came to Dr. Cristea for a simple cleaning and a general consultation, having no pain or problems with my teeth. After the most efficient and gentle dental cleaning I have ever had Dr. Cristea performed an extensive exam. Informing me that I'm clenching my teeth at night. Something I couldn't believe at all at first. Through my whole lifetime I had been so many times at several dentists in Norway. Noone ever detected this problem. Now after having a grinding plate placed for night time I suddenly have the most relaxing sleep ever. Unbelievable . I am impressed by Dr. Cristea's competence and the effectivity of his treatments.
Monika Nordgren
- Dr. Cristea is simply the BEST dentist I have ever experienced, incredibly detailed and explains everything.
Peter Svensson
- I called came with my wife for an emergency of her. As she was in bad pain Dr. Cristea took us on within the same day fitting us in with preferrential treatment which we really appreciated as my wife was in dire pain. More than that. He even worked through his entire lunch break just to be able to dedicate sufficient time for our case. We were very impressed and highly grateful. He discovered an old mercury filling as a foreign body within my jawbone which nobody had detected before! Causing me heavy pain and a swollen cheek for several days. After carrying out an emergency surgery he removed the infection in my bone and within two days only I had fully recovered and now being totally painfree. I can just highly recommend Dr. Cristea as an outmost professional, extremely knowledgeable and thorough dentist.
Horst Keller
- I hadn't been at the dentist for almost twenty years due to bad previous experiences. Dr. Cristea of Dental Marbella really almost instantly made me regain confidence and trust in dentists. His calm and patient manner, taking all his time just for you, showing by mirror and camera on the screen at the dental chair the problems you have and offering several options for treatment. Not recommending necessarily the most expensive, but the most convenient solution from the perspective of the patient's benefit.
Victor Livchenkov
- Dr. Cristea has simply magical hands. I was really worried because of previous unpleasent experiences when receiving an injection. But I honestly had to doublecheck if that was it and the anesthesia had really been applied as I didn't feel any pain at all! Incredibly gentle and patient dentist, makes you lose all your fear.
Lindsay Davies
- One of the biggest advantages of Dental Marbella was for me that I didn't have to be referred to several specialists for different dental problems. Dr. Cristea did alll the treatments himself, even the most difficult surgeries. Once when a badly damaged tooth broke deep inside my gums or when it suddenly turned out during another appointment that I needed a complicated root surgery instead of a simpler root canal treatment, no problem, he just changed his instruments and we did it right away without further delays or rescheduling. Great service, makes you feel comfortable in any situation knowing that you are in the right hands.
Maurice Dupont
- I came to Dr. Cristea to hear a second opinion on one of my teeth. It was a lower right molar where I had been advised by another dentist to have it extracted as a root canal instrument had broken during one treatment session. Not only had they broken a needle in my tooth, they now even wanted to take it out! I refused of course. After consulting many other dentists, I found Dr. Cristea who was the only doctor to recommend me a root surgery to just remove the fractured instrument in my tooth instead of taking out the entire healthy tooth.I went for it, all went well and now I am really happy and grateful we managed to save my tooth.
Elena Petrova
- I would like to express my most sincere appreciation of the extraordinary dental work you accomplished on my teeth. Thank you very much. Everything fits nicely, and feels really natural and comfortable while chewing as if it has always been part of my body. I am as well most pleased with the colour and shape of the teeth, the match and blend in perfectly. My wife likes them too, saying I look ten years younger!
Stefan Olsson
- My seven year old daughter went to another dentist in Marbella for a simple filling. It took him five minutes. With no drilling and no anestesia. At first I was really impressed. Two months later I notices a black spot around the same tooth. I went to Dr. Cristea for a
second opinion. He detected a huge cavity under the old filling. I am
considering malpractise lawsuit against the previous dentist.

Geraldine Adams
- Every time I fly to Marbella I will come and visit Dr. Cristea for a tooth cleaning. I have been at many dentists and they simply provide the most efficient, thorough and still gentle dental cleaning I have ever experienced.
Karen Sullivan
- I had been visiting and comparing many dentists before deciding with whom to commence my dental treatment. Being a photo model I was searching for a highly qualified specialist in cosmetic dentistry I could really trust. Dr. Cristea caring, patient and very accurate approach paying attention to the smallest details really convinced me from the first consultation. I felt I had found the expert I had been looking for. And after finishing the esthetic makeover of my teeth with several veneers I knew he had kept his promise.
Jasmin Di Lorenzo
- My whole life I had been having twisted and unsightly front teeth due to crowding. Braces were not an option so I preferred not doing anything. Until Dr. Cristea recommended me the Invisalign treatment with their invisible removable aligners. Just four months later all my upper and lower front teeth were perfectly straightened.
No pain, no hazzle, not even discomfort, Amazing. I wish I would have performed the Invisalign treatment earlier had I just known how simple it is.
Linda Johnson
- I have had dental work done both here and abroad. Every time I went in, it hurt. Then I met Dr. Cristea. He assured me that it wouldn't hurt, and, at first I was very nervous. But he was right! It was completely painless. I feel very grateful now, because I am not afraid to see the dentist anymore.
Jeremy Anderson, Marbella
- "Dr. Cristeawas very nice and the whole staff makes you feel welcome and comfortable. I would definitley recommend service to my friends."
Chelsey W, Puerto Banus
- "A caring and understanding dental practice, ideal for those who are phobic like me. My treatment has been painless and stress-free. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them."
Mr Andrew Boone
- I have always been one to put off going to the dentist. The option of having my dentistry done all at once while I was asleep was the best thing for me and my busy schedule. It was completely comfortable and we did everything in one visit. It was easy!
Marina Andovic - Nice environment, nice treatment, I had a trauma with the dentists, but after Dr. Sorin´s hands and his assistant no fears anymore. Prices? my mouth´s health doesn’t have a price.
Ernesto Iglesias - I had been several years with a removable denture replacing a couple of missing teeth as I initially had some reservations towards implants being an invasive surgical procedure. Dr. Sorin managed however to convince me that not only would dental implants hugely improve the esthetics of my entire mouth, but as well giving me back the comfort and chewing capacity of my lost natural teeth. The procedure was painless, had only minor swelling for 3-4 days, apart smooth and trouble-free healing afterwards, much less than ever imagined. I have to admit that the change was amazing once the implant crowns were fitted in. My quality of life has benefitted as a whole, I feel much younger and healthier, and in retrospect I wish I would have taken the decision in favor of dental implants earlier.
Peter Meier - All my family are very happy about the result. They feel that I have got a new smile and am 10 years younger. I cannot do anything but agreeing with them. It was a relief to meet you and get started on a treatment that has rejuvenated me. For me price was not the most important issue even though the cost in Spain is lower than at home. The important thing for me was that I would get a treatment that was highly satisfactory.
Prof. Dr. Jan O., Prof. Orthodontic Dentistry, Norway - I have been at over 50 dentists during my life Dr. Cristea was the first to ever check my bite, my chewing muscles and my joints. Explaining that I am grinding my teeth at night time and have increasing tooth wear, enamel fractures, tense muscles and joint problems as a consequence of my wrong bite. He found it all out at the very first visit. Now after reprogramming my jaws and adjusting my bite, I have no headaches and neck tensions anymore, and my face also appears slimmer.
Sonja Glaser - Nobody had ever told me that I have gum infections going on for many years. Unbelievable. I had been seeing many dentists, no one had looked at my gums before….Now I even lost one tooth as the disease was too advanced, luckily Dr. Cristea managed to save all the others with special gum and laser treatments. Everything feels so much cleaner and healthier, no more bad breath, gum bleeding and soreness, no more bad taste but a really great, fresh sensation in my mouth I hadn’t had in many years..
Henrik Bergman - It has been now over twelve years since I first visited Dr. Cristea. He gave me a completely other smile with new upper and lower crowns & bridges. It changed my entire social and professional life. I feel much more self-confident and relaxed, laughing and showing my teeth all the time. I still come in for regular check-ups and cleaning every six months, apart I haven’t needed any additional dental treatment since then. Amazing to see how long my new teeth have been lasting without any problems or visible wear at all.
Daniel Sandström - I have never met a dentist being so precise, meticulous and patient as Dr. Cristea. I was highly impressed to see the level of concentrated, diligent work being dedicated to one single tooth until the outcome was satisfactory to the patient and the dentist. You really notice as a patient that Dr. Cristea is a perfectionist, passionate about his profession and giving his very best.
Cecilia Lopez - At first glance I noticed that this was a very different clinic from what I had seen before. The immaculate state of the premises draw my attention, including an almost pristine cleanliness as well as the impressive attention to the smallest details. The high hygienic standards, the calm and personalized atmosphere further raised my confidence.
Alexander Cohen - After looking for a specialist in Esthetic Dentistry for a while I was very pleased to find Dental Marbella. I was convinced by the fact that Dr. Cristea took a lot of time in analyzing my teeth, smile lines and the proportions of my entire face to determine the best treatment plan for my case. The highly professional and methodical step-by-step approach explaining the different options with video animations, photo series, intraoral camera and other digital equipment made my decision even easier. The final result was just awsome with many people complimenting me on my beautiful and natural looking teeth.
Maria Gustavsson - My husband and I travel frequently between the US, Spain and the Middle East. Having visited and compared many dentists before deciding to initiate some dental treatments, we instantly felt very safe and well taken care of by Dr. Cristea and his highly efficient and competent team.
Susan Mc Dermot - I have to say the best, most gentle and thorough tooth cleaning I have ever experienced. Unbelievable how much even a simple procedure of a dental cleaning can vary from one clinic to another. The complimentary full mouth examination was also very comprehensive and informative, revealing several hidden cavities and chronic infections which had not been detected elsewhere.
George Miller - Thank you very much for the successful treatment-the fillings were very nice!
Nicole Smith - The color of my front teeth is perfect! And I can finally chew again without my teeth making grinding noises. Thank you.
Petra Schott - I went through a real odyssey between several dentists who didn’t detect the reason of my dental problems until I was recommended to Dr. Cristea in October 2011. For the last 4 years I had been suffering from severe pain in the upper right jaw, my joints and also my chewing muscles. Unable to find the reason the first dentist extracted over the time four of my upper right teeth and replaced them with two implants. Pain unchanged. After 6 months one of the two implant fails, pain still remains. Instead an upper and lower removable denture was placed. Overmore I had physiotherapy on my chewing muscles and was even treated for unknown facial pain with tranquilizers! In July 2010 they tried it with a mouth guard. All without any improvement. It finally all changed when I met Dr. Cristea who explained to me that the underlying cause was that even with my both dentures placed I was only biting with my last upper molars on each side!!!. This completely wrong bite had not been discovered by any of the previous dentists. Causing a chronic overload and imbalance within my whole mouth. With the first small occlusion adjustments my bite felt immediately better. And within ten days after replacing my removable dentures by fixed bridges the pain and tensions which I had been suffering from for years disappeared. I can only highly recommend Dr. Cristea, just as I was luckily referred to him.
