Find a dental clinic in Greifswald
Greifswald is a Hanseatic university town of roughly 60,000 residents on the Baltic coast of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, and its dental landscape reflects that scale: PillsCard lists 14 verified clinics, a density shaped less by tourism than by the year-round presence of University of Greifswald students, staff of the Universitätsmedizin Greifswald teaching hospital, and an ageing rural catchment drawing in patients from across Vorpommern-Greifswald district. Practices cluster in the Innenstadt around the Markt and along the arteries leading toward Schönwalde and Ostseeviertel, where most newer residential blocks sit. The town's small size means there is no single "dental quarter" — instead, clinics are distributed within short cycling distance of the centre, and many also see referral patients from Wolgast, Anklam, and the islands of Usedom and Rügen.
The market is fragmented and overwhelmingly owner-led, with no national chain dominance. Long-established single-handed practices such as Zahnarztpraxis Niedermeyer and the practice of Dr. Silvia Söhnel sit alongside group setups like the Zahnärztl. Gemeinschaftspraxis Grulke/Vetter, which pools general dentistry across multiple chairs. Specialist focus is visible in offerings such as Implantologie Th. Löw, which concentrates on implant work and bone augmentation, while practitioners including Dr. Katy Reißmann and Andreas Jummel cover the broad general-dentistry and prosthetics workload. Several clinics maintain informal referral pathways to the oral and maxillofacial surgery (MKG) department at the Universitätsmedizin on Fleischmannstraße for complex surgical cases, third-molar removals under general anaesthesia, and oncology follow-up.
