Periodontitis Treatment in clinic Viena

About the clinic

Periodontitis treatment at Clínica Viena in Medellín, Colombia, helps restore gum health using digital diagnostics and specialized surgical techniques. The clinic typically runs around $1,000 for dental implant placement, while other periodontal prices are determined after a clinical evaluation. Dr. Sebastián Otálvaro Henao leads the department with over 10 years of experience and holds membership in the Colombian Association of Periodontics.

Advanced diagnostics for gum disease

The diagnostic process at Clínica Viena uses a fully digital workflow to assess bone levels and tissue health. Each patient receives a personalized diagnosis before starting any therapy. The clinic has treated 6,000+ patients and holds accreditation from the Seccional de Salud de Antioquia.

  • Periodontal charting. Specialists measure pocket depths, bleeding points, and tooth mobility.
  • Digital imaging. The clinic uses panoramic and periapical X-rays to view tooth structures.
  • CBCT scans. 3D bone tomography provides a detailed view of bone loss and anatomy.
  • iTero Element scanner. This technology creates digital impressions without the use of messy traditional pastes.

Non-surgical and surgical treatment options

Treatment plans depend on the stage of the disease, ranging from deep cleaning to complex regeneration. For anxious patients, the clinic offers conscious and IV sedation along with a specialized comfort menu. All materials used for restorations meet FDA and INVIMA standards.

  • Scaling and root planing. This deep cleaning removes bacteria below the gumline under local anesthesia.
  • Corrective periodontal surgery. Dr. Sebastián Otálvaro Henao opens deep pockets to remove infection and reshape bone.
  • Gum grafting. This procedure uses the patient’s own tissue or biomaterials to cover exposed roots.
  • Guided bone regeneration. Specialists use biomaterials to rebuild bone support lost to infection.
  • Gingivectomy. The team uses an electrobisturí to remove excess gum tissue and improve smile aesthetics.
  • Dental implants. 3D-guided placement replaces teeth lost to disease and includes a lifetime guarantee.

Expertise of Dr. Sebastián Otálvaro Henao

Dr. Sebastián Otálvaro Henao is a board-certified periodontist with over 10 years of experience in dental implants and tissue regeneration. He completed his DDS at the University of Antioquia and specialized at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia. Dr. Sebastián Otálvaro Henao also finished an international clinical internship at the University of Chile. He maintains active involvement in the ITI Study Club and focuses on advanced techniques like immediate implant loading.

Care process and international patient support

International patients receive help with airport transfers and hotel bookings in the El Poblado district. The treatment starts with a clinical exam and digital X-rays to establish a baseline. After the initial hygiene phase, the doctor reevaluates the gums in 4 to 6 weeks. Following active treatment, patients enter a professional maintenance phase to prevent relapse. Stable gum tissue is required at the clinic before any cosmetic work, such as veneers, can begin. To start your treatment plan, you may request a consultation through Bookimed.

clinic Viena: more details about the clinic

Colombia, Medellín

Clinic Viena is a private boutique dental clinic in Medellín's El Poblado district, Colombia. It focuses on conservative, biomimetic dentistry for international patients from the United States, Canada, and Europe. The clinic specializes in smile transformations and complex oral rehabilitation.

Key Facts and Achievements

The clinic has treated over 6,200 patients since opening. Dr. Sara Peláez leads the team. She is an aesthetic dentistry specialist with more than 17 years of experience. Nine specialists trained at major Colombian institutions, including CES University and the University of Antioquia, make up the medical team.

Quality benchmarks and professional affiliations include:

  • Crown and implant materials meet FDA and INVIMA standards.
  • Recognition by the Top Doctors ranking.
  • Staff memberships in the World Federation of Orthodontists (WFO) and American Association of Orthodontists (AAO).
  • Certification by the Seccional de Salud de Antioquia.

Specialties and Smile Design

Aesthetic dentistry centers on Digital Smile Design and minimally invasive preparation. Specialists use E-max and Amber Press lithium disilicate ceramic veneers for natural aesthetics and durability. A unique Triple Guarantee covers veneer quality for 10 years and stain protection for 15 years.

Dr. Santiago Palacio Gutiérrez manages oral and maxillofacial surgery. He specializes in advanced implantology and facial reconstructive surgery. The surgical department performs several complex procedures:

  • Guided bone regeneration to restore lost bone volume
  • Wisdom tooth extractions for impacted or erupted molars
  • Major maxillofacial surgeries for jaw deformities and facial asymmetries
  • Sinus lifting to prepare the upper jaw for implants

Implantology workflows are entirely digital. Surgeons use 3D surgical guides to place titanium implants with high precision. For full-arch restorations like All-on-4, clinical data shows a 99.2% one-year implant survival rate. Implants carry a lifetime guarantee on the titanium fixation if patients follow regular hygiene protocols.

The orthodontics department offers discreet alignment options, including Invisalign clear aligners and ceramic braces. Dr. Sebastián Otálvaro Henao provides periodontal care with 14 years of experience treating periodontitis and gum recession. These treatments often serve as a foundation before patients receive veneers or implants.

Equipment and Technologies

The clinic uses a fully digital planning model for treatment accuracy and patient comfort. Diagnostic and treatment technologies include:

  • iTero Element intraoral scanners for 3D digital impressions
  • CBCT (tomography) for detailed 3D bone imaging
  • Digital X-ray systems with panoramic and periapical views
  • 3D surgical guides for computer-planned implant placement
  • Conscious sedation protocols for patients with dental anxiety

Services for International Patients

Clinic Viena coordinates logistics through a structured international care model. For ceramic veneer packages, the clinic provides airport transfers and helps arrange hotel stays in El Poblado. Most major treatment phases require at least five days.

A "menu of comfort" improves the experience during long procedures. The Triple Guarantee also includes 1-year travel protection for US and Panamanian patients. If a covered quality issue arises within the first year, the clinic coordinates transport and lodging for the return visit.
