Diagnosis and treatment planning

The first step to a healthy smile is accurate diagnosis

Patient Journey

How the Patient Journey Works

From the initial scan in Barcelona to the finalized treatment plan — six transparent stages, each with a clear clinical objective.

01

Digital Scanning Center

The first stage is a complete digital capture of the patient at the clinic in Barcelona. We perform 3D jaw scans, intraoral scans, and photo and video protocols. This creates a basic digital model that doctors will then work with.
  • Intraoral scanning — real-time color 3D model of teeth and bite
  • Photo and video protocol — documenting the initial state of the smile and face
  • Face scanning — for designing your future smile
02

Full-cycle diagnostics

The second stage is a functional diagnosis of the entire dentoalveolar system, also in Barcelona. This is not just a "tooth X-ray," but a complete system evaluation: bone, muscles, joints, occlusion.
  • CBCT (3D tomography) — assessment of bone tissue, hidden canals, sinuses
  • Axiography — analysis of mandibular movements in dynamics
  • Electromyography — assessment of masticatory muscle function
  • TMJ and occlusion analysis — detection of temporomandibular joint dysfunctions
The result — an accurate diagnosis and a clear understanding of what needs to be treated, in what order, and by what methods.
03

Treatment planning

All diagnostic data from Barcelona is transferred to Symmetrica's main center in Lviv. A team of doctors — an orthopedist, implant surgeon, orthodontist, and periodontist — collaboratively develops a treatment plan during an interdisciplinary consultation. The plan is presented to the patient in Barcelona — either online or offline, accompanied by a service manager.
You receive:
  • A step-by-step treatment plan with justification for each stage
  • Transparent cost calculation — fixed for the entire course of treatment
  • Digital visualization of the expected result (Smile Design)
04

Comfortable medical travel

Your treatment plan is ready before you arrive in Ukraine. This means a clear schedule: you'll know the specific days, times, and stages — and how long each visit in Lviv will take.
  • Visit schedule — aligned with your work calendar and family plans
  • Optimized logistics — fewer trips, maximum results in one visit
  • No unnecessary trips — every visit to Lviv has a clear clinical purpose
  • Dedicated service manager support at every stage — from hotel booking to transfers
05

Post-treatment support

Complex dental treatment is more than just a procedure; it requires monitoring results over months and years. After returning to Barcelona, you remain under the care of our center.
  • Regular check-ups — on a scheduled basis at our Barcelona clinic
  • Early detection of potential issues — before they become serious
  • Maintaining treatment results — professional hygiene, tooth alignment adjustments, and bite monitoring
  • Communication with your doctor in Lviv — via a unified digital patient record
06

Warranty support and service

All treatments at the Symmetrica center are covered by our warranty. During the warranty period, you can receive initial assessments and urgent care at our Barcelona clinic, without needing to travel back to Ukraine.
  • Warranty service according to European standards
  • Initial diagnostics for all concerns are handled in Barcelona
  • Travel to Lviv is only required for complex procedures, with full coordination provided
  • A single team responsible for your results — from the first scan to years down the road
Equipment

Symmetrica Barcelona technology

Our diagnostic center in Barcelona is equipped with the same high-end technology as our main center in Lviv. Data collected in Barcelona is fully compatible with your treatment protocol — no repeat scans and no loss of precision during transfer.

3D tomography

CBCT — Cone Beam Computed Tomography

3D diagnostics for the maxillofacial area. In a single rotation around the head, the device captures approximately 200 images to build a 3D model that can be analyzed from any angle.

~200 images · 3D model
  • Precise assessment of bone density and quality — critical for successful implants
  • Identification of hidden root canals and root pathologies
  • Early detection of cysts, granulomas, and other abnormalities
Digital impressions

Intraoral 3D scanner

A contact-free digital alternative to traditional silicone impressions. The scanner creates a 3D color model of your teeth and bite right during your appointment.

3D color model
  • Real-time 3D color imaging of your teeth and bite
  • Occlusal balance analysis — how your upper and lower jaws align
  • A visual preview of your final results before treatment even begins
  • Predicting the appearance of restorations — veneers, onlays, and crowns
Movement dynamics

Optical axiography

Recording lower jaw movements using an optical device that tracks markers on the teeth. This allows us to see how the dentofacial system functions in motion, rather than just in a static state.

Dynamic movement
  • Visualizing the dentofacial system in real-time motion
  • Detecting abnormalities in temporomandibular joint function
  • Dynamic occlusion analysis — something no static image can show
  • Integrating all data (CT scans, dental and facial scans, and movement tracking) into a single system.
Muscle function

Electromyography

Examining the condition of the masticatory muscles using ultra-sensitive sensors. This is critical for identifying the underlying causes of headaches, bruxism, and bite issues.

Ultra-sensitive sensors
  • Objective assessment of masticatory muscle function
  • Detecting pathological changes in the dentofacial system
  • Evaluating the effectiveness of previous dental treatments
Why it matters

Why a visual exam alone isn't enough

A visual examination of the oral cavity reveals obvious issues like cavities, chips, or clear changes in gum structure. However, the vast majority of dental pathologies are not visible to the naked eye.

Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) Disorders

Temporomandibular joint disorders cannot be diagnosed without axiography.

Hidden canals and chronic root inflammation

Chronic inflammation at the root of a tooth is only visible on a CBCT scan, not during a standard examination.

Chewing muscle imbalance

Without myography, it remains undetected, yet it is often the cause of migraines and headaches.

Dynamic occlusion disorders

A static bite may look normal, but reveal conflicts when in motion.
+30%
Modern digital diagnostics increase treatment efficiency by over 30%. This isn't just a marketing claim—it’s a real reduction in revisions and complications.

FAQ

Diagnostic FAQs

We'll answer your questions

Can I get my entire treatment plan in Barcelona without having to travel to Lviv?

Yes. All diagnostics, planning, and coordination of your treatment plan take place in Barcelona. You only travel to Lviv once the plan is approved, specifically for the treatment stages themselves.

How long does a full diagnostic assessment take?

A full cycle of scanning and functional diagnostics is typically completed in one or two visits. The exact duration depends on the scope of the examinations and your clinical situation, which we will confirm with you in advance.

What happens to my data? Who has access to it?

All data is stored in the secure Symmetrica digital system. Access is restricted to the doctors involved in your treatment. We comply with GDPR requirements, the European standard for personal data protection.

Can I have a consultation online?

Yes. Your treatment plan can be presented either in person in Barcelona or online, with a service manager available to assist you in your native language.

How long does it take to prepare a treatment plan?

Once diagnostics are complete, our team of doctors in Lviv develops a plan during an interdisciplinary consultation. We will then present the finalized plan, including a cost breakdown and a visualization of the results, to you in Barcelona.

Do I need to have the diagnostics repeated in Lviv?

No. All data obtained in Barcelona is transferred to the center's unified digital system. Lviv doctors work with the same scans, CTs, and jaw movement recordings.
