A considered approach, clear treatment, visible results
Dr Sonja Gligović is a specialist orthodontist who runs Dental Med NS in Novi Sad. I believe a patient should understand everything we do, that the plan should be clear from day one, and every step of treatment explained in plain language.
Why orthodontics is my calling.
Born on 14 August 1986 in Vrbas, Dr Sonja Gligović has developed her passion for medicine through two specialisations and doctoral studies. She is a PhD candidate in orthodontics at the Military Medical Academy in Belgrade.
At Dental Med NS, every patient receives a written plan after their first consultation. The plan contains everything — how long treatment will take, what it costs, how to pay, and what Dr Sonja Gligović expects from the patient. No surprises, no small additions that appear on the bill later.
She works with children, adolescents and adults. For each age group there's a different approach, but the same goal: that treatment runs calmly, that the result is visible, and that the patient — after the braces come off — independently maintains what they achieved together.
Sonja's philosophy“An individual approach is the most important thing in orthodontic treatment. I don't think every patient needs extractions for treatment to be successful, nor do I think extractions are wrong. The truth lies somewhere in between, and the art is in finding an orthodontist who sees the bigger picture.”
“I take the best from every technique I know — something only possible through constant development, courses and education — to find the best, fastest and safest solution for each patient.”
What awaits you at Dental Med NS?
An individual approach
No two cases are the same. Every treatment is tailored to the patient — taking into account age, the problem, lifestyle and expectations. No templates.
The best from every technique
Orthodontics has many approaches. Dr Sonja Gligović draws on comprehensive theoretical and clinical knowledge to choose the best combination for each case — not just one school of thought.
Constant development
Over 30 certificates from domestic and international training. Final year of PhD studies in orthodontics at the Military Medical Academy (VMA) in Belgrade. Orthodontic techniques evolve quickly — knowledge has to keep pace.
Special care for children
A calmer environment, a small toy at every visit, simple explanations for the child, and transparent conversation with parents before and during treatment.
Solutions for adults
Clear aligners and aesthetic sapphire braces for those who prefer not to wear visible appliances. Discreet, with the same quality of results.
Collaboration with general dentists
Close cooperation with general dentists in Novi Sad when combined treatment or preparation before orthodontics is needed.

Conferences, travel, nature. The same eyes that study orthodontic analysis also see the world as a place of constant learning. Energy that flows back into every consultation.
