Laila Kondratjeva

Certified dentist

Graduated from the Faculty of Dentistry of Riga Stradins University in 2021.

Doctor Kondratjeva is kind, has excellent communication skills, always offers the most optimal treatment, and constantly expands her knowledge in dentistry.

Supports the so-called “minimally invasive approach” – at the initial stage of tooth damage (the “spot” stage) begins by motivating the patient to improve hygiene, and observes the teeth over time, only performing repairs when truly necessary.

Prefers to perform dental hygiene procedures by herself, as she considers it the basis of a healthy and beautiful smile.

When treating the teeth, the anatomical shape of the tooth is restored using modern, wear-resistant sealing materials for the lateral teeth. The front teeth are beautifully and imperceptibly restored with high-quality composite materials that do not discolor over time. Also uses biomaterials in her work, which are becoming more and more popular and often used in dentistry.

Gladly works with both adults and children!

Excellent knowledge of Latvian and Russian languages, speaks English at a conversational level.

  • “Medbaltica 2022 LZA Conference”
