Orthosmile is a clinic where the intuition and experience of a dedicated professional with international practice combine with the latest treatment technologies – resulting in beautiful and healthy smiles, and satisfied clients. Dr Pavlina Patarinska shares more about the vocation of being one of the best orthodontists in Bulgaria.

What is dental medicine to you?

Becoming a doctor was my childhood dream. Later, it became a conscious professional choice. With time and experience, when I look back at all the sacrifices and challenges one endures to become a specialist, I can now say that this profession is a vocation. A profession for people with big hearts. People who are dedicated, innovative and inquisitive.

So, for me, dentistry is a conscious vocation.

Why and how did you choose orthodontics as your specialty?

I got interested in orthodontics during my third year at university – from then on, I determinedly pursued this dream. This field in dentistry allows you to treat each patient creatively. There are strict rules and principles; when filtered through your experience and knowledge, they help shape the final result for the patient. Orthodontics is a form of art.

How did you manage to become one of Bulgaria's top orthodontists?

I graduated in Bulgaria, but my passion for excellence led me to the Netherlands, Belgium and Israel. There, I had the chance to grow professionally and independently. The experience and contacts I gained there bring me both satisfaction and confidence.

What are the most interesting innovations in orthodontics – and how do you apply them in your practice?

The digital world and artificial intelligence are rapidly entering orthodontics. In my practice, I strive to use equipment that makes life easier both for me and the patient. Neither of us should waste time sending, returning, waiting, and so on. For example, I use a next-generation 3D scanner in my clinic and the X-ray machine uses voice commands.

What makes orthodontics exciting for you?

The most exciting moments for me are when I have managed to convince a patient that orthodontic treatment alone is not enough and needs to be combined with osteotomy (surgery on one or both jaws) – and then I see them after the procedure, beaming with joy and satisfaction. That smile is the greatest recognition!

What is the most important thing a patient should know before starting orthodontic treatment?

That they have to be motivated, disciplined, and to trust their treating specialist.

Д-р Павлина Патаринска е един от най-добрите ортодонти в България

Orthosmile е клиника, в която усетът и опитът на един всеотдаен професионалист с международна практика се съчетават с най-съвременни технологии за лечение – а резултатът е красиви и здрави усмивки и доволни пациенти. Д-р Павлина Патаринска разказва повече за призванието да бъдеш един от най-добрите ортодонти в страната.

Какво е за Вас денталната медицина?

Лекарската професия беше моя детска мечта. После стана осъзнат професионален избор. С годините и натрупания опит, като погледна назад през колко лишения и предизвикателства минава човек, за да се изгради като специалист, мога да кажа уверено – тази професия е призвание. Това е професия за хора с големи сърца. Хора, които са всеотдайни, иновативни и търсещи.

Така че лично за мен тази професия е осъзнато призвание.

Защо и как избрахте да специализирате ортодонтия?

Ортодонтията ми допадна в трети курс – тогава започнах упорито да преследвам тази моя мечта. Това е специалност, която те кара да твориш при всеки пациент. Има точни правила и принципи – пречупени през твоя опит и познания, те създават крайния резултат за пациента. Ортодонтията е вид изкуство.

Как станахте един от най-добрите ортодонти в България?

Образованието си получих в България, но жаждата за развитие ме отведе в Нидерландия, Белгия и Израел. Там получих шанса да се развивам професионално и независимо, както аз искам. Натрупаният опит там и създадените контакти ми носят удовлетвореност и увереност.

Кои са най-интересните иновации в ортодонтското лечение – и как ги прилагате в практиката си?

Дигиталният свят и изкуственият интелект усилено навлизат в ортодонтията. В практиката си се стремя оборудването ми да е максимално ефективно за мен и за пациента. Нито той, нито аз да губим време в изпращане, връщане, чакане и т.н. Затова, например, в клиниката си използвам последно поколение 3D скенер, а рентгеновият апарат използва гласови команди.

Кое е най-вълнуващото за Вас в ортодонтското лечение?

Най-вълнуващо за мен е, когато съм успяла да убедя един пациент, че ортодонтското лечение не е достатъчно, а че трябва да е комбинирано с лечение, включващо остеотомия (операция на едната или двете челюсти) – и го видя след операция, сияещ от радост, доволен.Тази усмивка е най-голямото признание!

Кое е най-важното нещо, което трябва да знае пациентът, преди да започне ортодонтско лечение?

Че трябва да е мотивиран, дисциплиниран и да има доверие на лекуващия.
