We speak with Dr Andrija Petar Bošnjak about leading clinical standards across a 16-location dental group spanning Croatia, Slovenia, and Italy, and why dental tourism has shifted from cheap fillings to complex full-arch work. We also dig into what actually keeps quality high at scale: education systems, fast support for clinicians, a real group culture, and the discipline to go fully digital. 

• how Adria Dental Group operates across 16 locations and three countries 
• why Italian patients travel to Croatia for complex reconstructions 
• how Croatia’s private dentistry culture fuels training and quality 
• Andrea’s path from academia to clinical director leadership 
• building an internal academy with webinars and monthly training 
• visiting clinics to solve problems quickly and keep teams motivated 
• using a medical board to align lead clinicians and move decisions 
• balancing clinical autonomy with private equity financial goals 
• switching to digital workflows, zirconia, milling machines, and in-house labs 
• the growth lesson: build a true group mindset, not a loose network 
• practical advice: remove owner bottlenecks and hire finance support early
