Centro Dental Integral is a private family dental clinic in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. The facility has three departments: restorative, aesthetic, and implant dentistry. The team serves locals and international visitors, especially travelers from the United States and Canada.
The clinic has provided dental care in the region for around 30 years. Founder Dr. Jose A. Reyes and Clinical Director Dr. Cheyra Reyes lead the practice. The team combines digital diagnostics with clear communication. This includes structured support for patients on cruise ship stops or short vacations.
Dental Specialties and Methods
The clinic focuses on tooth preservation and restoration. Specialists perform root canal treatment to eliminate infections and seal the tooth. This offers an alternative to extraction for severe pain or abscesses. Modern anesthesia allows most care to be completed in a single appointment.
Restorative options center on long-term tooth replacement. Specialists offer dental implants using biocompatible titanium to replace lost roots. The process includes implant placement under local anesthesia, then a permanent crown. For multiple missing teeth, the clinic provides implant-supported bridges.
Aesthetic dentistry helps patients achieve smile makeovers through several options:
- Professional laser teeth whitening
- Porcelain and resin veneers
- Digital Smile Design (DSD) for computer-aided planning
- Tooth-colored dental fillings
Every aesthetic plan starts with a digital evaluation. Treatment is customized based on the patient's facial features. The clinic also provides preventive care, including exams and cleaning every six months.
Same-Day Restorative Technology
A standout service is the same-day dental crown system. Traditional crowns require molds, temporary pieces, and multiple visits over weeks. With CAD/CAM technology, the team designs and fabricates permanent crowns in the office. So patients can have their tooth prepared and restored in one visit.
This works well for fractured teeth or restoration after root canal. Since fabrication happens on-site, travelers can complete major dental work during their trip. The clinic reserves time for emergencies to handle urgent cases the same day.
Diagnostic Equipment
The clinic uses digital diagnostic tools for treatment accuracy. These systems provide high-resolution imaging with reduced radiation. Key equipment includes:
- Cone Beam CT Scan for 3D imaging
- CEREC Omnicam for intraoral scanning and digital models
- Panoramic X-ray (OPG) and periapical X-rays
- DIAGNOcam for non-invasive cavity detection
- Florida Probe and electronic axiography
Digital diagnosis happens on the first consultation day. This lets the team confirm a final treatment price in writing before any work begins.
Services for International Patients
The clinic has a dedicated workflow for visitors from abroad. Patients can send photos or X-rays via WhatsApp for a preliminary treatment plan. English-speaking coordinators typically reply within one business day with a written estimate. The clinic schedules appointments around cruise ship arrivals and travel plans.
After treatment, patients receive written aftercare instructions to take home. A WhatsApp line stays open for follow-up questions once the patient returns. If needed, the team can coordinate care details with the patient's dentist back home.
