Summary
Punto Bianco is a multilingual dental clinic in central Chișinău specializing in advanced implantology, full-arch rehabilitations, and complex aesthetic cases. The clinic was established in 2010 and is registered as PUNTO BIANCO S.R.L. (IDNO 1016600019703). Ten named dentists are listed covering oral-maxillofacial surgery, prosthodontics, orthodontics, and dental therapy, and the clinic performs procedures under general anesthesia. It also operates under the TravelToDentist brand for international dental tourism.
The clinic uses both puntobianco.md and traveltodentist.com as its web presences, the latter oriented toward dental tourists. A page on traveltodentist.com displays images of licenses, authorizations, and accreditation certificates but does not transcribe numbers into machine-readable text. Additional international phone numbers for Italy (+39 041 963 8304), France (+33 481 680 957), Spain (+34 911 868 022), and the UK (+44 207 048 7233) are listed. The company IDNO 1016600019703 is published on the about page and can be cross-referenced with the Moldovan State Enterprise Registry. The TravelToDentist page states the clinic holds a dental clinic license, sanitary authorization, drug authorization, dental care authorization, radiography authorization, and an accreditation certificate, but these are displayed as images without machine-readable numbers.
