CDT Katrin Meikar

For nearly 20 years, I have dedicated my career to learning about functional dentistry and training dentists and dental technicians to understand the importance of function.

Nearly 20 years ago, together with the Amann Girrbach team, we introduced a new approach to understanding dental function in the Baltic States through the use of facebows and articulators.

I have delivered more than 100 lectures, teaching dentists and dental technicians how to use facebows and articulators in their clinical and laboratory workflows.

We understand the everyday challenges faced by dental laboratories and clinics. I am committed to helping the Baltic dental community deepen its understanding of functional treatment and make clinical workflows more efficient and effective, particularly when treating patients with complex temporomandibular joint disorders and aesthetic concerns.

Our goal is to help dentists and dental technicians work more effectively while improving patient care and avoiding unnecessary steps in the fabrication of dental restorations.

Our partner, ZEBRIS Medical, is involved in daily clinical and academic practice at institutions including Heinrich Heine University Düsseldorf with Prof. A. Hugger, Goethe University Frankfurt with Prof. S. Kopp, and the University of Greifswald with Prof. Kordass, as well as at many other institutions throughout Europe and worldwide.

We focus on patient-centred, minimally invasive treatment supported by biomechanically and physiologically neutral clinical workflows.
