Summary
Kalmar Implant Dentistry is a polyclinic in Rijeka established across three generations of the Kalmar family, currently led by Dr. Daniel Kalmar. The clinic operates a multilingual site (Croatian, English, Italian, German, Slovenian) and documents a full range of implantology, prosthodontics, orthodontics, periodontics, and pediatric dentistry. On-site equipment includes digital orthopan, 3D CBCT, and CAD/CAM (Sirona) technology. No prices are published on the official website.
The WhatClinic listing shows a different address (Izvidacka 2a) and different hours from the official site; the official contact page address (Ljubljanska cesta 6) and hours (Tue-Fri 08:00-16:00, Sat 07:00-15:00) were used. The clinic markets in Italian under the brand 'Dentista Croazia'. OIB 43246603436, MBO 040230309 (Commercial Court Rijeka). Dental Departures lists 177 reviews at 5.00/5; the early search snippet cited a Google rating of 4.80 from 499 reviews — these numbers are inconsistent across aggregators and cannot be independently verified, so both are noted but neither is asserted as the definitive Google figure.
