by Katja Mannteufel (Oemus Media) First publication: ZWP Zahnarzt Wirtschaft Praxis [German monthly journal for dentists in practice] 6/22, p. 78– 79, OEMUS MEDIA AG, Leipzig   The treatment concept of the "Zahnärzte am Nordufer (ZANH)" neighborhood dental practice in the Berlin district of Wedding is shaped by preventive dentistry and natural esthetics.
