Dentists in Split can differ considerably in the way they approach implants, orthodontics, restorative dentistry and larger dental rehabilitations. The four Split clinics below have individual NewHolidays profiles and are located within the city itself.
This guide focuses on the differences that may actually influence a patient’s choice. Detailed treatment information remains on each clinic’s individual profile rather than being repeated across the hub. Dental Centar Repić in Trogir and Dr Marijo Mendeš in Makarska are listed separately as other Dalmatian options outside Split.
Dental clinics in Split
The four practices below are located in Split. Their clinical profiles are different enough that the most appropriate starting point depends on whether your main concern is implant surgery, preservation of natural teeth, orthodontics, prosthetic work or a larger multidisciplinary treatment.

Dental Care Croatia – Dr Marina Ježina Bušelić
Dental Care Croatia follows a deliberately staged approach to treatment. Dr Marina Ježina Bušelić has advanced training in implantology, guided implant treatment and All-on-4, while the clinic also works with regenerative procedures for patients with reduced bone. Its approach may be particularly relevant when healing time needs to be considered as carefully as the surgery itself.

Croatia Dental Care – Dr Suzana Bigava Maršić
Croatia Dental Care has a different emphasis. Dr Suzana Bigava Maršić combines restorative dentistry with orthodontic and functional training, including Inman Aligner and fixed orthodontics. This may be useful when the question is whether healthy teeth can first be aligned or preserved before considering crowns or other irreversible restorative treatment.

Spalato Dental
Spalato Dental combines six treatment rooms, 3D diagnostics and its own dental laboratory. This may be especially useful for patients who need several crowns, implant-supported restorations or full-arch treatment where diagnostic, clinical and laboratory stages need to be closely coordinated.

Bihaćka 2A · Split
Visodent – Split Practice
Visodent operates through more than one Croatian location, with a dedicated practice in Split. The wider group combines implantology, prosthodontics, periodontology and oral medicine. Patients considering the Split practice should confirm which clinicians and treatment stages will take place specifically at the Bihaćka location.
View Visodent SplitChoosing between dentists in Split
The four Split clinics should not be compared only by whether they offer implants, crowns or cosmetic dentistry. Their stronger differences lie in how treatment is planned.
Dental Care Croatia may be particularly relevant when implant surgery, bone condition and healing stages need detailed planning. Croatia Dental Care provides another perspective when orthodontics or preservation of natural teeth could reduce the need for extensive restorative work.
Spalato Dental may appeal to patients whose treatment requires close coordination between diagnostics, several clinical appointments and an in-house laboratory. Visodent follows a wider specialist-group model, so international patients should establish which clinicians will personally manage their treatment in Split.
Comparing dental implants in Split
Several of the clinics provide implant treatment, but a useful comparison begins before the implant is placed.
Ask whether the existing tooth can still be preserved. If replacement is necessary, establish what imaging shows about available bone and whether grafting or another surgical procedure may be required.
The restorative phase matters as well. An implant fixture is not a complete replacement tooth. The treatment may also involve an abutment, temporary restoration and definitive crown or bridge.
For full-arch cases, patients comparing dentists in Split should distinguish temporary fixed teeth from the definitive bridge and ask how many trips the complete treatment may require.
When alignment may come before cosmetic restorations
A patient seeking a new smile may initially ask for veneers or crowns because several front teeth appear crowded or rotated.
In selected cases, orthodontic treatment may improve tooth position before restorative dentistry begins. Croatia Dental Care has a particularly clear orthodontic profile within this Split shortlist.
This does not mean every cosmetic patient needs braces or aligners. It means tooth position should be assessed before healthy enamel is removed when a less invasive alternative may be realistic.
Crowns and bridges: look at the workflow, not only the material
For larger restorative cases, laboratory organisation becomes more important.
Ask where crowns and bridges are produced, whether digital scanning is used and whether a try-in is expected before final fitting. Patients travelling for several restorations should also leave enough time for adjustments before departure.
Spalato Dental has the clearest in-house laboratory model among these four Split clinics. Other practices follow their own clinical and technical workflows, which should be discussed before a larger treatment begins.
Planning appointments within Split
The clinics are located in different parts of the city. Dental Care Croatia is in the historic centre, Croatia Dental Care is at Ulica Slobode, Spalato Dental is in Kila and Visodent is at Bihaćka 2A.
This may not matter for one consultation. It becomes more relevant when treatment requires several fittings, surgical reviews or repeated appointments during the same stay.
Patients travelling specifically for dentistry should therefore establish the appointment sequence before choosing accommodation.
Dental clinic near Split: Trogir
Trogir is a separate coastal town west of Split. Dental Centar Repić is therefore not a Split clinic and is listed here as another Dalmatian option.
Its strongest point of difference is the combination of orthodontic and endodontic specialist care. This may be relevant when the main decision is whether a tooth should be moved, preserved, restored or eventually replaced.

Dental Centar Repić – Trogir
Dr Slavica Pejda Repić is a specialist in orthodontics, while Dr Dario Repić specialises in endodontics and restorative dental medicine. Their complementary backgrounds make the clinic particularly relevant when preserving or repositioning natural teeth may change the need for implants or extensive prosthetic treatment.
View Trogir clinicDental clinic in Makarska
Makarska is another separate Dalmatian destination and should not be presented as part of Split. Dr Marijo Mendeš practises at Ante Starčevića 114 in Makarska itself.
This option may be particularly practical for patients already staying on the Makarska Riviera or those who prefer a smaller local dental practice providing general dentistry alongside implant, prosthetic and aesthetic care.

Dr Marijo Mendeš – Makarska
Dr Marijo Mendeš runs an established dental practice in Makarska providing general care alongside implantology, dental prosthetics and aesthetic dentistry. It represents a different type of option from the larger multidisciplinary Split clinics.
View Makarska clinicSplit, Trogir or Makarska?
Patients who plan to stay in Split will normally find a Split-based clinic more practical for repeated appointments. Trogir and Makarska become alternatives when their location or clinical profile better matches the treatment being considered.
Do not compare the destinations only by driving distance. First establish which clinician and treatment pathway fit the dental problem, then consider how many appointments or return visits the complete treatment may require.
Planning dental treatment in Split
If you already have a recent panoramic X-ray, CBCT scan or previous treatment plan, include it with your initial enquiry. The same records can also make comparisons between clinics more meaningful.
For implants, ask about bone condition, temporary teeth, healing and the definitive restoration. For crowns or veneers, clarify which natural teeth genuinely require treatment. Orthodontic patients should ask how often ongoing reviews are expected.
Give exact arrival and departure dates rather than simply saying that you will be in Split for a week. This helps determine which stages can realistically fit the trip.
Need help comparing Split dental clinics?
Send NewHolidays a short description of the dental treatment you are considering, your planned Split dates and any recent dental records you already have.
We can coordinate your enquiry with the clinic whose clinical profile appears relevant and clarify the expected treatment stages before you arrange your dental trip.
If you are also considering Trogir or Makarska, mention this in your enquiry so the three destinations can be compared separately.
