- DENTAL VENEERS
Improve the aesthetics of your smile
Ceramic veneers are designed to correct one or more teeth that have changes in color, shape, and size. Currently, among the various cosmetic treatment options, dental veneers are considered one of the most conservative treatments, that is, minimally invasive, since almost the entire original tooth structure is preserved.
- Tailored to each patient
Treatment with dental veneers is personalized. Each case has special characteristics and must be planned taking into account three fundamental aspects: clinical need, the patient's aesthetic expectations, and treatment guidance for a natural and harmonious final result. - Applied to both jaws
Dental veneers can be applied to both the upper and lower teeth. Although the smile is more associated with the upper teeth, in some clinical cases it is also necessary to incorporate the lower teeth for a more balanced final aesthetic result. On the other hand, treatment with dental veneers is also considered in cases of functional rehabilitation, particularly in cases where the teeth are very worn. - Procedure
Treatment with dental veneers is minimally invasive. This means that the treated teeth retain more than 95% of their original structure at the end of the treatment and only a gentle polishing of the outer surface of the tooth is performed. The treatment is carried out in two appointments and is painless. We also recommend a six-monthly visit to the hygienist for lifelong maintenance of the veneers and your gum health. - Made of pure ceramic
Dental veneers are manufactured by our ceramists in the dental prosthesis laboratory. They are precisely adapted to the structure of each tooth and bonded in a rigorous and painless clinical process. The ceramic used to make them is highly resistant and aesthetic, despite being very thin (usually between 1 and 1.5 mm thick).
- LATEST GENERATION IMPLANTS
Dental implantology is constantly developing and evolving, and staying at the forefront of this technology is important for better biocompatibility and performance.
The clinic uses the latest generation of dental implants and biomaterials and works closely with the industry to develop and improve them.
- Precisely placed
Correct three-dimensional placement is crucial to the success of dental implant treatment. We offer implant placement using both static and dynamic surgical guides. The implant-crown combination benefits from this, reducing working time and consultation duration. We have access to the latest digital software, such as 3D printers for printing guides and CAD/CAM systems for manufacturing dental crowns. - Screw-retained or cement-retained
Whether as individual therapy or as an adjunct and combined with fixed prostheses on teeth, implant-supported rehabilitation depends on the success of the crown-implant interface. We therefore select cemented or screw-retained options depending on the clinical case in question for the correct aesthetic integration of the combination of different materials with function and mechanics. - Replacement of one or more teeth
Implants can be placed when one, several, or all teeth are missing. In any of these situations, with proper planning, implant-supported rehabilitation is possible. The number of implants and the biomaterials used are influenced by the number of teeth to be rehabilitated and are decided on a case-by-case basis.
- ORTHODONTIC TREATMENT WITH ALIGNERS
Orthodontic aligners are transparent, removable devices used to correct tooth alignment and improve occlusion, serving as an aesthetic and comfortable alternative to traditional fixed metal braces.
- Definition
They are clear plastic trays (usually made of polyurethane or PET-G) custom-made for each patient through 3D digital scanning and virtual planning of tooth movement.
Each set of aligners applies gentle, continuous forces to the teeth, gradually moving them into the ideal position.
- FIXED AND REMOVABLE PROSTHESES
Dental prostheses are devices used to restore missing teeth or damaged dental structures, restoring chewing function, aesthetics, and phonetics to the patient.
They are divided into fixed and removable, depending on the mode of retention and support.
- Fixed Prosthesis
This is a prosthesis that is permanently cemented or screwed onto natural teeth (abutments) or implants.
The patient does not remove it. - Removable Prosthesis
This is a prosthesis that the patient can remove and replace.
It can replace some or all of the teeth.
- WHITENING
Teeth whitening is a cosmetic and chemical procedure that aims to lighten the color of teeth by removing extrinsic (superficial) and/or intrinsic (internal) pigmentation without damaging the enamel.
The goal is to improve the aesthetics of the smile while maintaining the integrity of the dental tissue.
Operating principle
It is based on the release of active oxygen from agents such as:
- Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂)
- Carbamide peroxide (CH₆N₂O₃)
These compounds penetrate the enamel and dentin, oxidize the pigments, and make the teeth whiter.
- INHALATION ANESTHESIA WITH NITROUS OXIDE
If you experience fear or anxiety in a clinical setting, this service was designed especially for you.
Our inhalation anesthesia with nitrous oxide, also known as "laughing gas," allows you to relax during treatment, pain-free, stress-free, and with complete safety. Ideal for adults and children who are afraid of medical procedures.
- FACIAL AESTHETICS
Enhance the natural beauty of your face with minimally invasive techniques:
Botox (botulinum toxin)
Smoothing of expression lines (forehead, eyes, between eyebrows) with natural and expressive results.Nose tip lift
A discreet aesthetic procedure that provides greater harmony to the facial profile.Reduction of wrinkles on the neck and face
Non-surgical rejuvenation treatments for a firmer and more revitalized appearance.Personalized facial harmonization
An integrated approach that combines different techniques to balance and enhance facial features.
