Hey, everyone! It’s Dr. Liz Kirchof here, and I’ve got some exciting news to share with our expat community in Ticino. I recently had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Sebastian Däröste, probably Scandinavia’s most known talented cosmetic dentist, to talk about his latest venture—and trust me, you’re going to love this!
Dr. Sebastian isn’t just any dentist; he became the world’s youngest Invisalign Diamond Provider in 2021 and has continued to break new records since then. (Yes, you read that right!) And now, he’s bringing his expertise and passion for creating beautiful smiles right here to Lugano with his brand-new clinic, Alpine Smiles, opening in January 2025.
What’s Special About Alpine Smiles?
When I asked Sebastian what makes his clinic different, his answer was simple: it’s all about you. At Alpine Smiles, the focus is on making patients feel comfortable, informed, and cared for.
Here’s what you can expect:
Top-notch treatments led by Sebastian and his partner Dr. David Raickovic, both experts in orthodontics and cosmetic dentistry.
Cutting-edge technology inspired by the best clinics in Oslo and London.
Transparent pricing (no hidden surprises!).
A range of services, from Invisalign and veneers to regular check-ups and cleanings.
Why Lugano?
Dr. Sebastian had offers to set up shop in big cities worldwide, but Lugano captured his heart. “There’s something special about Ticino—the lifestyle, the people—it just feels like home,” he shared.
And he’s not alone! His partner, Dr. David, is also moving to Lugano with his family to bring world-class dental care to our region. They saw a real need for modern, high-quality services here and couldn’t wait to fill that gap.
Perfect for Our International Community
One thing I loved hearing about Alpine Smiles is how inclusive they are. With a team that speaks 9 languages (yes, NINE!), this clinic is tailor-made for Lugano’s expat crowd. Whether you speak Italian, English, German, Swedish, or even Lithuanian, you’ll feel right at home.
Exclusive Perks for the Community
Sebastian and his team are rolling out some fantastic deals for their early patients:
10% off all treatments.
30% off your first consultation (complete with x-rays, a 3D scan, and a full check-up).
Free consultations for Invisalign or veneers.
And don’t worry if you’re new to the idea of cosmetic dentistry—they’ll walk you through every step and make sure you leave with a smile you love. Straight teeth are proven to last longer, meaning most cases offer functional benefits too! But if that is not for you, rest assured they provide top care also in general dentistry such as fillings, crowns and keeping your teeth healthy!
Save the Date!
Alpine Smiles is opening its doors in February 2025 in Cassarate, Lugano. (The exact spot will be announced once refurbishments are completed, but it’s coming very soon!)
Whether you need a quick check-up, want to straighten your own, or your child’s, teeth with Invisalign, or are just curious about what they offer, I can confidently say you’ll be in great hands.

I’m so thrilled to have shared this news with you, and I hope you’re as excited as I am to welcome Sebastian and his team to Lugano. Here’s to brighter smiles for all of us in 2025! 😊
