DENTIST • DIGITAL DENTISTRY • DENTAL SURGERY
Dr Salim Zerguine
Dentist, digital dentistry and surgery
Established at your dental practice in Montreux since 2011, I practice with a simple conviction: every treatment must be part of a sustainable approach. Not just solving an immediate problem—but anticipating, explaining, and deciding together.
Holder of a State Doctorate in Dental Surgery, I practice under the recognized title of dentist in Switzerland. I am the lead dentist at Dental Swiss Clinics, where I oversee medical organization, clinical protocols and quality of care.
A clinical career built in diverse contexts
Before settling in Montreux, I practiced in very different clinical environments—in France, Scotland, the Shetland Islands and Réunion Island.
Practicing in isolated areas, with diverse patient needs and limited resources, builds clinical autonomy and adaptability that few contexts allow you to develop. It is this journey that shaped my rigor—and my versatility.
Clinical expertise
Digital dentistry — CEREC since 2013
I have been using CEREC since 2013—at a time when the vast majority of practices in French-speaking Switzerland had not yet integrated this technology into their daily practice.
This is not a minor detail: over ten years of treated cases, refined protocols, complex situations managed. Digital dentistry extends clinical expertise—it does not replace it.
Dental surgery and implantology
Implant surgery and complex extractions have been an integral part of my practice for over 23 years. Every surgical indication is rigorously evaluated—the decision to intervene is always medically justified, never systematic.
Aesthetic and functional restorations
Aesthetic dentistry is not just about appearance. A successful restoration must be functional, stable over time and integrated into the entire dentition. This is the balance in which I work.
Dental Emergencies
Emergencies are handled with the same rigor as scheduled treatments. Provide rapid relief—then offer a lasting solution, not just a temporary treatment.
Support for anxious patients
Dental anxiety is a common and legitimate reality. My approach is based on explanation, predictability of the process and constant presence throughout the treatment. Trust is built—it is not imposed.
An approach based on shared decision-making
Every clinical situation is subject to rigorous examination, clear explanations and presentation of available treatment options. The decision is made together—taking into account medical needs, personal constraints and patient expectations.
The objective is twofold: to guarantee technical quality and preserve understanding and trust over the long term.
Languages Spoken
Dr Zerguine sees his patients in French, English, Arabic and Romanian—a reality that reflects the diversity of patients from the Vaud Riviera and Montreux’s international clientele.
