Twin block braces in Dental Studio Spa
About the clinic
Twin Block braces at Dental Studio Spa in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, guide jaw development in growing children. Orthodontist Dr. Mary C. Feliz has over 20 years of experience and focuses on orthodontics and jaw orthopedics.
How Twin Block treatment works
The appliance is used during a child’s or adolescent’s growth phase to guide jaw development. It can help correct jaw and tooth positions, facial bone malformation, and bite problems.
Treatment starts with a functional orthopedic phase. Fixed braces may follow after this phase, and retainers are used after orthodontic treatment.
Assessment and treatment planning
Planning may include a lateral skull X-ray to assess facial growth, a panoramic X-ray, and an intraoral scan. Digital Smile Design may also be used.
Treatment time depends on the case’s complexity and attendance at scheduled appointments. Bite problems can be linked to headaches or tension in the neck and shoulder muscles.
Dental Studio Spa has 17 specialists across six departments, including orthodontics, maxillary orthopedics, and pediatric dentistry. Its spa-style setting is designed to reduce discomfort and anxiety for younger patients.
Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss whether Twin Block braces may suit their child.

Dental Studio Spa: more details about the clinic
Dental Studio Spa is a multi-specialty dental clinic in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. The facility has six specialized departments and 17 doctors. It follows a Spa concept designed to reduce discomfort and promote relaxation during treatment. Care covers the full spectrum of oral health – from pediatric dentistry to aesthetics and complex maxillofacial surgery.
Medical Specialization and Treatment Methods
The clinic treats patients of all ages, including infants. Specialists take an integrated approach to oral health and dental aesthetics. This helps reduce long-term risks from caries and periodontal disease.
Orthodontics and Functional Correction
The orthodontic department corrects mispositioned teeth and jaw bones. Specialists identify bite issues that may cause headaches or muscle tension in the neck and shoulders. Treatment options include:
- Clear aligners and ceramic braces
- Self-ligating and lingual braces
- Myobrace system to correct habits like mouth breathing and swallowing
- Twin block braces for jaw development
Physiotherapy and dental splints treat temporomandibular joint (TMJ) syndrome. These therapies relieve pain in the jaw muscles and ligaments.
Implantology and Periodontics
The periodontics team treats gum diseases such as gingivitis and periodontitis. Surgeons place dental implants to replace missing teeth and roots. The clinic uses a screw-in method within the alveolar bone. This preserves jaw function and helps prevent bone loss.
Aesthetic Rehabilitation and Veneers
Restorative treatments focus on oral harmony and proper jaw articulation. The clinic offers several types of dental veneers:
- Zirconia and Emax veneers
- Porcelain and resin laminates
- Contact lens-style ultra-thin veneers
- Dental crowns over osseointegrated implants
These procedures restore both natural appearance and biting function.
Pediatric Dentistry and Maxillofacial Surgery
The pediatric department treats children from newborns up to 16 years old. Doctors use stories, games, and videos to ease fear of the dentist. For complex skeletal issues, orthognathic surgery is available. These procedures correct alignment of the maxillary bone and mandible.
Diagnostic Technologies and Equipment
Specialists use digital tools to create precise treatment plans. Intraoral scanning produces accurate tooth models without traditional impressions. The clinic also uses Digital Smile Design (DSD) to simulate results before treatment. Other diagnostic capabilities include:
- DIAGNOCam for early caries detection
- Panoramic X-ray (Orthopantomogram)
- Periapical and targeted X-rays
- Facial measurements and photography for surgical planning
These technologies support safer surgeries and more effective aesthetic results. Digital studies tailor every procedure to the patient's unique facial structure.
International Patient Services
Dental Studio Spa welcomes international patients seeking preventive, corrective, or aesthetic dental care. The clinic works with several insurance providers:
- ARS Humano
- MAPFRE ARS
- ARS SIMAG
Specialists have trained at institutions including the University of Sao Paulo and Universidad Iberoamericana. This background supports specialized care for patients from around the world.
