Dr. Jacobo Bendayan is a private dental practice in the Chicó neighborhood of Bogotá, Colombia. It is a single-doctor practice focused on periodontics and dental implantology. Dr. Bendayan founded the clinic himself. He treats both local patients and international travelers who need specialized oral rehabilitation.
Professional Expertise and Recognition
Dr. Jacobo Bendayan is a Medical Doctor with over 15 years of experience in periodontics and implantology. His 5.0-star rating from 105 Google reviews shows high patient satisfaction. The practice follows a structured workflow built for patients traveling from abroad. This makes results more predictable.
Specialties and Dental Procedures
The clinic puts gum and bone health first. Healthy gums and bone are the foundation for long-lasting dental work. Dr. Bendayan treats several conditions and performs these procedures:
- Periodontics – Treatment for gingivitis and periodontitis, including deep cleaning below the gumline.
- Dental Implants – Replacement of missing teeth with titanium posts that act as artificial roots.
- Bone Regeneration – Rebuilding lost bone with grafts, which gives implants a stable base.
- Gum Grafts – Surgical repair of receding or damaged gum tissue to protect tooth roots.
- Oral Rehabilitation – Crowns, bridges, and prostheses placed over implants or natural teeth.
International patients usually need two trips for implant treatment. The first trip covers implant placement. After that, patients heal at home for three to six months. On the second trip, Dr. Bendayan places the final crowns and checks the bite and fit. Each visit usually takes 7 to 10 days, since it includes follow-up appointments.
Advanced Technologies and Diagnostics
Every implant case relies on digital planning, so outcomes are more predictable. Specialists use 3D CT scans to measure available bone. These scans show whether regeneration or grafts are needed. In the second stage, the clinic uses digital scans or impressions to make the final prosthetic components. All bone grafting is done under local anesthesia to keep patients comfortable.
Dr. Bendayan also offers clear aligner orthodontics for teeth straightening. These metal-free aligners can correct alignment before or after other restorative work.
Services for International Patients
The clinic offers full communication support for patients traveling to Bogotá. Before the trip, patients can book a free video consultation on Google Meet. Sessions run Monday to Friday, 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Colombia time. Dr. Bendayan speaks English and Spanish. He personally handles all consultations, treatment planning, and follow-ups.
To keep care consistent from start to finish, the clinic offers several support services:
- WhatsApp coordination of video calls and appointments.
- Preliminary written treatment plans before the patient travels.
- Video call follow-ups after the patient returns home.
- In-office consultations and diagnostic exams in English.
The clinic asks patients to send recent CT scans or X-rays before their trip. This allows a more accurate preliminary evaluation. The final diagnosis still requires an in-person exam. But this digital start helps patients understand how many visits they will need.
