The fear is so great, you can no longer help yourself. And the shame is ever-present: about the condition of your teeth, about the long time you have gone without seeing a dentist, about the fear itself.
We understand.
Because we only treat people like you. Video
Treat dental anxiety/phobia with the Dr. Leu® method in just 3 appointments
The Dr. Leu® Group works with practices in many major European cities and specialises in precisely these patients: people with extreme dental anxiety or phobia who often have not visited a dentist for 10, 20 or more years. People who hide, who are ashamed, who are convinced that they can no longer be helped.
Even so, over 4,000 patients who were once suffering now say:
‘I never thought it was possible. But it was possible. And it was much easier than I had imagined.’
Break out of the vicious circle in 3 sessions
The Dr. Leu® method is based on a unique and proven concept – specially developed for people with extreme dental phobia. It consists of only three appointments:
T2 – Treatment under general anaesthesia
In 4 to 7 hours, your entire mouth will be restored – pain-free, shame-free, safe.
Sometimes, no teeth can be saved, but that's no big deal. With the LEU MODEL (extraction & immediate implants), you get new teeth right away.

An investment in your quality of life
The comprehensive treatment we offer at the Dr. Leu® Group goes far beyond what statutory health insurance covers. It is too individual, too intensive and, above all, too holistic for that.
Our patients make a conscious decision to take this special path. For many, after years of fear, shame and avoidance, it is the first real decision they have made for themselves.
Of course, this type of treatment comes at a certain cost. But anyone who decides to go ahead with it knows that it's not just about teeth. It's about joie de vivre, self-confidence, new closeness to other people and the wonderful feeling of finally being able to be yourself again.
In retrospect, almost all of them say:
‘It was one of the most important decisions of my life – and worth every step and every penny.’
Because they not only got a new smile, they also started a new chapter in their lives.
The reason we are different
Many dental practices claim to treat ‘anxious patients’.
But we EXCLUSIVELY treat people with extreme dental phobia.
Our patients:
• avoid social contact out of shame
• feel let down by the ‘normal’ dental system
• often believe that it is too late
But we know that it is never too late.
Our processes, our rooms, our language – everything is tailored to you. No reproaches, no pressure, no uncomprehending looks. Instead, genuine help, backed by experience, empathy and medical excellence.
Our contact person for english-speaking patients:
Your first point of contact is Sascha Mommensohn.
He was trained by former patient Andrea Herold,
who has been leading the consultation team for nearly 20 years and is thoroughly familiar with Dr. Leu®'s treatment.
In the first anonymous conversation – the PRE-T1 conversation – you can get rid of everything that has been weighing on you for years.
We have already helped more than 4,000 anxious patients start a new life.

And today?
They are eating normally again.
They are laughing.
They are living.

From dental anxiety to a new quality of life: two inspiring stories from our patients
These two photos say more than a thousand words: they show two women whose quality of life in terms of oral health (OHIP) and dental anxiety (HAF) was severely impaired just a few years ago.
But both patients succeeded with the support of Dr. Leu®'s proven methods. It was touching to see how their scores improved from ‘very poor’ to ‘very good’ within a very short time and how fearful, desperate patients became confident, happy women.
Leu – more than just a dentist
For decades, Dr. Michael Leu has specialised in treating people who had given up on themselves. Together with an experienced team of specialist anaesthetists, dental technicians and assistants, he has created a system that works – even and especially for people who feel that all hope is lost.
