Who treats you
Dr. med. dent. M.Sc. Sandro Strößner – working in implantology since 2013 · M.Sc. in Oral Implantology and Periodontology – together with the team at Zahnkompetenzzentrum Weißenfels.
First Appointment
Conversation, medical history and examination (3D X-ray if needed) – planning comes first, treatment follows. A purely informational conversation without an examination is free of charge; examination and treatment and cost plan are billed according to the GOZ (the German scale of dental fees).
Costs
Before every treatment, you receive a written treatment and cost plan showing your own contribution; patients with statutory and private health insurance are treated equally.
First Step
Book an appointment around the clock via our online reception (the “Appointment” button), or by phone during opening hours on 03443 339 65 54.
“Patients from Halle, Magdeburg, Bitterfeld, Naumburg, Zeitz and beyond value our Zahnkompetenzzentrum as a supra-regional point of contact for implantology, biological dentistry and full-mouth restoration in Saxony-Anhalt.”
Cone-beam CT scan, intraoral scans, structured assessment. The first appointment isn't treatment — it's a conversation backed by data.
From the final dental prosthesis back to the surgery. What should exist at the end determines the first step — not the other way round.
Coordinated by one team under one roof. Surgery, prosthetics, laboratory — nothing handed off, nothing lost in translation.
For patients travelling from further away, we are happy to combine several treatment steps into one or two appointments, offer accommodation recommendations at the local Hotel Güldene Berge, and coordinate aftercare with your regular dentist at home.

Specialists across Saxony-Anhalt
Saxony-Anhalt is a large, spread-out state with sizeable, lively cities as well as many smaller towns, where general dental care is good but highly specialised treatment is not always available close to home. For most everyday needs – a routine check-up, a professional dental cleaning, a filling – the dentist round the corner is the right choice. For particular concerns, however, such as extensive implant treatment, a planned full-mouth restoration, or a preference for biological, material-conscious dentistry, it can be worth seeking out a practice with the right focus – even if it is not in your own town.
The Zahnkompetenzzentrum Dr. med. dent. M.Sc. Sandro Strößner sees itself as a point of contact for concerns just like this. We are located in Weißenfels, in the south of Saxony-Anhalt, and treat patients from across the state – from Halle, Magdeburg, the Burgenlandkreis, the Saalekreis, and many other regions. This page is aimed specifically at people within Saxony-Anhalt who are looking for specialised care and are willing to accept a manageable journey to get it.
The idea that you should visit the nearest practice for every dental service often falls short for demanding treatment. Implant treatment combined with bone augmentation, restoring a badly damaged set of teeth, or a carefully considered, holistically planned full-mouth restoration are not off-the-shelf routine procedures. They call for in-depth qualification, experience with a wide range of different starting situations, and, generally, the bundling of several treatment steps under one roof. Anyone who specifically looks for the right specialist focus here is making a deliberate decision for their dental health.
Within a federal state like Saxony-Anhalt, such a search usually does not mean a long journey. Distances are manageable, the road and rail network connects the regions well, and a centrally located practice can be reached from many towns within a reasonable driving time. It is exactly this idea – making specialist care accessible without needing to travel to a distant major city – that shapes our self-understanding. We describe in detail, in the following section, just how central Weißenfels actually is within Saxony-Anhalt, and which towns are especially easy to reach.
For you as a patient, this means, above all: you have a free choice. No one is obliged to decide based on proximity alone – particularly for treatment meant to serve you for years, clinical considerations are entitled to be the deciding factor. We invite you to be advised by us at your own pace, to get to know the practice and the team, and only then to decide. An initial consultation is non-binding and provides clarity before you make any journeys or decisions.
Central Location & Accessibility
Weißenfels lies in the south of Saxony-Anhalt on the river Saale, nestled between the Saalekreis and the Burgenlandkreis districts, giving it a convenient location in the southern part of the state. The A9 and A38 motorways, along with the federal roads, connect the town well to major urban centres, and the rail network also links Weißenfels to the region's larger towns along the Saale line. This location makes the Zahnkompetenzzentrum Dr. Strößner easy to reach within a manageable travel time from many places in Saxony-Anhalt.
At this point, we would like to be deliberately specific, so you can judge whether making the journey is right for you. The figures below are guide values and may vary depending on your exact starting point and destination, traffic conditions, and the mode of transport chosen.
The central location of Weißenfels in southern Saxony-Anhalt is more than just a geographical footnote. It means that specialised care is within a travel time that fits well into everyday life for many people across the state. This is especially valuable when a treatment – such as implant care – is not completed in a single appointment, but involves preliminary examination, the procedure, check-ups and aftercare.
We know that travelling from another town needs to be organised properly. That is why we try to plan appointments for patients coming from further away so that several treatment steps can be sensibly combined and unnecessary journeys avoided. Feel free to mention where you are travelling from when booking your appointment – our team will take this into account in the planning wherever possible. This makes it possible to combine care from beyond the immediate area with the practicality needed for everyday life.
We're also happy to answer questions about parking and how to reach us by public transport in advance, by phone on 03443 339 65 54, so you can plan your journey with ease.
Focus Areas
Searching further afield for a specialist is particularly worthwhile when a practice has clearly defined areas of expertise. At the Zahnkompetenzzentrum Dr. Strößner, these are implantology, biological, materials-conscious dentistry, and comprehensive full-mouth rehabilitation. These three areas complement one another, as they all share the same aim: forward-looking planning based on the desired outcome, and treatment that keeps the whole person in view.
Implantology is a central focus of our work. A dental implant is an artificial root that is placed in the jawbone and, once healed in, provides a firm hold for crowns, bridges, or removable dental prosthetics. Its particular advantage is that neighbouring, often healthy teeth can be spared, and chewing forces are transmitted directly into the bone, which can help counteract its natural resorption. Dr. Strößner holds the academic degree of Master of Science (M.Sc.) in implantology – a multi-year, part-time postgraduate course of study with a scientific dissertation, going considerably beyond basic university training.
Biological dentistry does not consider the mouth in isolation, but as part of the whole organism. The focus is on material compatibility, a treatment approach that is as tissue-sparing as possible, and attention to the interactions between oral health and general wellbeing. For patients who care about which materials remain in their body, this approach can be a key reason for choosing a particular practice. We explain material alternatives – such as metal-free, ceramic solutions – in an understandable way and take your individual circumstances into account when planning. This approach is explicitly not associated with promises of a cure; it is about a conscious, careful approach to materials and tissue.
A full-mouth restoration comprehensively restores a badly damaged set of teeth, or one that has been neglected for years. Such treatment often combines several disciplines – from treating diseased teeth, through surgery, to prosthetic treatment and, where appropriate, implant solutions. This is exactly where the value of a practice that coordinates these steps under one roof, and works from a clear overall concept rather than stringing together individual measures, becomes clear. We deliberately take our time planning a full-mouth restoration, because it affects function, health, and appearance all at once.
Which of these focus areas are relevant to you only becomes clear through careful diagnostics and a conversation about your wishes and circumstances. There is no blanket recommendation – and that's a good thing, because every situation is different.
Process for Those Travelling In
Anyone coming to us from Halle, Magdeburg or another town in Saxony-Anhalt understandably wants to know how treatment can be organised without turning into an endless series of journeys. The following sequence describes the typical steps involved in specialist treatment – with particular attention to how appointments can be sensibly bundled together for patients travelling from further away. The exact course can vary depending on the starting situation and type of treatment.
A word on aftercare for patients travelling further: the long-term care of a restoration – checking implants, for example – matters for how well it lasts. For patients living further away, we discuss individually which check-ups sensibly take place with us and which routine appointments might, where appropriate, be carried out in coordination with a trusted local dental practice. This allows specialised care to be combined with support that fits into everyday life.
This forward-looking planning is not an add-on, but part of our understanding of good care. You should know what to expect – including in terms of journeys, time and cost – before any treatment begins.
Range of Treatments
So that you can judge whether the journey makes sense for your particular concern, here is an overview of the range we cover in our areas of focus. We plan each of these treatments individually – based on your findings, your wishes and your medical circumstances. The following list does not replace a consultation, but is intended to give you an initial sense of orientation.
As varied as this range is, no general recommendation can be drawn from it. Whether an implant, a bridge, a metal-free solution, or a more comprehensive restoration concept is right for you only emerges from precise diagnostics and a conversation about your expectations. This individual planning, thought through from the desired outcome, is a hallmark of specialised work and a key reason why it can be worth specifically seeking out the right specialist focus.
We deliberately avoid promises of success or specific figures here. How a treatment progresses depends on many individual factors – from bone quality and general health conditions through to oral care at home. We consider it more honest to show you the possibilities and state the limitations openly, rather than raising expectations that no one could responsibly fulfil.
Why look beyond the region
Many people initially find it difficult to decide to look beyond their own town for dental treatment. After all, the familiar practice around the corner is convenient. However, for particular, more demanding concerns, it can be worthwhile to seek out a practice with the right area of expertise specifically – and within a federal state such as Saxony-Anhalt, this generally means only a manageable journey.
Demanding treatments benefit when diagnostics, planning, surgery and prosthetics come together under one roof. This saves the back and forth between different facilities, makes coordination easier, and creates continuous care with familiar points of contact. A specialised practice has the necessary diagnostic capabilities in place and has gathered experience with a wide range of different starting situations.
The term “specialist” is not a protected title in dentistry in every context. This makes verifiable indicators all the more important: an advanced academic qualification such as a Master of Science (M.Sc.), a recognised special focus, participation in structured further training, and a clear treatment focus. Anyone searching specifically can check these features and base their decision on objective grounds. We are always happy to answer questions about qualifications, experience and procedures openly.
In Germany, you are free to choose your own dentist – you are not tied to the nearest practice. Especially for a restoration that is meant to last you many years, professional considerations are entitled to be the deciding factor. Looking beyond your own region is therefore not a vote of no confidence in local care, but a deliberate addition for particular needs. Your local practice remains important for routine check-ups and everyday care; for specialised steps, travelling to a practice with the relevant focus can make sense.
We explicitly do not wish to speak negatively about any other practice – on the contrary, where it makes sense, we are glad to work together with local treating colleagues. Our aim is to make specialist treatment accessible for people across the whole of Saxony-Anhalt, and to make searching for it from further afield as straightforward as possible.
The fact that Weißenfels, in southern Saxony-Anhalt, has excellent transport links is more than just a nice extra. An accessible practice means that check-up and follow-up appointments, which are important for treatment success, can also reliably be kept. Anyone who had to plan a full day's journey for every step would be more likely to postpone appointments – short, plannable journeys within the state make specialist care practical for everyday life.
Costs & Insurance
A question that concerns many people before specialist treatment is that of cost – and what the health insurer will cover. We are open about this topic, as financial predictability is, for us, part of good advice. However, flat-rate figures are not possible, because costs depend heavily on the individual situation.
For implant treatment, costs depend on the number of implants, the effort involved in any bone augmentation, the material chosen, and the prosthetic restoration. For a full-mouth rehabilitation, it comes down to the scope of the measures required. And with metal-free, biologically oriented solutions, there can be differences compared with conventional restorations. Only after diagnostics can a serious estimate be given of what to expect.
Statutory health insurers generally do not cover the cost of the implant itself; however, they do grant a fixed subsidy based on the diagnosis for the dental prosthetics that sit on the implant. This subsidy can increase if a dental bonus booklet (Bonusheft) has been kept up to date without gaps, and further support is possible in particular cases of hardship. Private health insurers and supplementary insurers reimburse implant and prosthetic treatment differently depending on the tariff. Before treatment begins, we prepare a transparent, written treatment and cost plan for you, which you can submit to your health insurer – so you know in advance what costs to expect. For patients travelling further within Saxony-Anhalt, this transparency is especially valuable, as it allows treatment and travel to be planned together.
Feel free to ask us about instalment payment options as well as bonus and subsidy arrangements. Our goal is a restoration that is clinically convincing and remains financially manageable for you. We discuss the available options with you openly, and never pressure you into anything.
It begins with a detailed, no-obligation consultation, in which we examine your situation and discuss the possible options. You can reach the Zahnkompetenzzentrum Dr. med. dent. M.Sc. Sandro Strößner in Weißenfels by telephone on 03443 339 65 54. Feel free to tell us where you are travelling from when booking your appointment – our team will take this into account in the planning wherever possible, and help you coordinate the journey and treatment well. This is how we make specialised dentistry accessible across the whole of Saxony-Anhalt.
Patients from Halle, Magdeburg, Bitterfeld, Naumburg, Zeitz and beyond value our Zahnkompetenzzentrum as a supra-regional point of contact for implantology, biological dentistry and full-mouth restoration in Saxony-Anhalt. The central location in Weißenfels can be reached from almost all larger towns and cities within a maximum of 90 minutes.
We understand the expectations typical of patients from your home country: honest advice, clear communication about costs, no gimmicks, and dental quality that meets high standards. That's exactly what we've been delivering for years.
I was an anxious patient for fifty years. Today, I am no longer one. Not because my anxiety has disappeared, but because this team took it seriously, without ever making a drama out of it.
What convinced me was the absence of marketing. No promises. Just planning, explanation, execution. I had eight implants placed and didn't even feel like I'd made a difficult decision.
