How to get in touch

• WhatsApp (+994 55 501 01 09): the clinic's messaging assistant replies in Azerbaijani, Russian, English, Hebrew and Arabic and can book an appointment.
• Front desk (+994 55 501 01 07): phone calls in Azerbaijani and Russian.
• Online booking: choose the time yourself.

Time constraints: after work, Saturday, a short trip

• The first appointment starts at 09:30 and the last appointments run until 19:00; on Saturdays one duty dentist works.
• The clinic is closed on Sunday, but urgent cases such as acute pain, swelling or trauma can be seen if there is a clinical indication — call first.
• If you are coming from another city or country, send your X-rays and photos in advance: the plan and price range are known before the trip. Fillings, root canal treatment and hygiene often fit into one trip; an implant is usually 2 trips — surgery, then 3–6 months of healing and the prosthesis.
• Before you travel, an online consultation with Dr. Bakhtiyar Aliyev is available: 3 video sessions — 100 AZN, in Azerbaijani, Russian or English.
