Dentistry
in Krakow and available dental treatments.
More
than 500 dentists work in Krakow,
Poland, which makes roughly
seven per every 10,000 of the city’s inhabitants.
Most
of Krakow general dentists as well as cosmetic dentists,
orthodontists, oral surgeons, and pediatric dentists run their
own practices as owners or co-owners of dental surgeries. Many
of them have a second job – usually considered to be the
principal employment even if poorly paid – with some public
healthcare organization, the university hospital, etc. At the
same time, sizable private dental clinics, employing various

specialization in dentistry may think about practicing legally

professorship.
The
majority of Krakow dentists graduated from the Jagiellonian

Medical Academy (Akademia Medyczna). Also most of its
professors at the dentistry department as well as other
members of the faculty run their own dental clinics in
