Two generations – One standard

Dr. Dr. Yasmin Thiel and Dr. Dr. Henri Thuau are FMH-certified specialists in oral and maxillofacial surgery. Both developed part of their clinical expertise at University Hospital Zurich and now bring this experience to their work at IKG–ZUG. Their paths are different. Their standard of care is the same.

International training – Swiss precision

Dr. Dr. Yasmin Thiel’s clinical perspective has been shaped by training at leading university hospitals in Germany and Switzerland, including the University Hospital Zurich, as well as further clinical experience in South Africa and Tanzania. Her dual qualifications in medicine and dentistry, including her additional certification as an oral surgeon, allow for a uniquely broad approach across function, reconstruction, and aesthetics.

A specialist across the full spectrum of care

Dr. Dr. Thiel’s expertise spans the full scope of oral and maxillofacial surgery - including oral surgery, implantology, jaw reconstruction, and the surgical management of oral and facial tumours - as well as the diagnosis and treatment of temporomandibular disorders (CMD). This is complemented by medically grounded aesthetic facial treatments and regenerative medicine. Her approach reflects a broader understanding of health care, recovery, and long-term wellbeing.

Understanding the patient

Fluent in German, French, Italian and English, with a clinical perspective shaped by training across Europe and Africa, Dr. Dr. Thiel brings an international outlook to patient care. Her expertise extends beyond surgery to include complementary aesthetic treatments, regenerative medicine, and a broader whole-person approach. Patients feel heard, understood, and at ease from the very first conversation.
