Cerec Omnicam Digital Diagnostic Models in Dr. Hortencia Recio (Estudio HR)
About the clinic
Cerec Omnicam Digital Diagnostic Models provide a detailed 3D map of the oral cavity at Dr. Hortencia Recio (Estudio HR) in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. This diagnostic tool replaces uncomfortable physical molds with a fast, non-invasive digital scan. The system creates instant 3D models used for planning smile designs and complex dental rehabilitations.
Advanced Imaging Technology
The clinic uses the Cerec Omnicam, a handheld intraoral scanner that captures the exact shape and size of teeth. This technology eliminates the need for traditional putty impressions, which many patients find unpleasant. The scanner produces high-resolution digital images in real-time, allowing for an immediate review of the dental structures.
- Intraoral scanning. Captures precise data without the gag reflex often caused by physical trays.
- 3D digital models. Generates an accurate replica of the mouth for diagnostic analysis.
- Digital Smile Design. Integrates with specialized software to preview potential aesthetic changes.
- Workflow integration. Connects with 3D tomography to give a complete view of the patient's dental health.
Diagnostic Process and Results
The examination is performed as a same-day outpatient procedure. A specialist moves the small camera tip around the teeth, and the 3D model appears on a screen immediately. These digital records are highly accurate and serve as the foundation for all future planning. Because the files are digital, they are easily stored and used for precise measurements in complex cases. Patients can request a consultation to learn more about how this technology is used for their specific needs through Bookimed.

Dr. Hortencia Recio (Estudio HR): more details about the clinic
Dr. Hortencia Recio (Estudio HR) is a private dental practice in Santo Domingo. The clinic focuses on advanced aesthetics and complex oral rehabilitation. Dr. Recio provides specialized care to improve both chewing function and smile harmony. Her practice is built on a digital workflow. Patients approve every design before any physical work begins.
Academic Background and Patient Outcomes
Dr. Hortencia Recio has over 15 years of clinical experience in dentistry. She holds a doctorate from the University of São Paulo and a research master's from UIC Barcelona. This allows her to base treatment decisions on advanced science. She currently teaches at UASD and in master's programs at PUCMM.
The clinic treats many international patients, including U.S. residents. It maintains a 5.0 rating on Google based on 40+ reviews. Patients often choose this practice for its staged, conservative approach to permanent aesthetic changes.
Aesthetic Dentistry and Smile Design
The clinic uses Digital Smile Design (DSD) to plan aesthetic transformations. This process starts with facial analysis using clinical photographs and smile videos. An intraoral scan creates a digital model of the patient's teeth. Specialists then use software to design the final result.
Before any irreversible work begins, the clinic creates an aesthetic provisional mock-up. Patients test this in-mouth trial and approve it. This step ensures the final look meets expectations while preserving natural tooth structure. The clinic offers several aesthetic options:
- Ultra-thin feldspathic porcelain veneers
- Lithium disilicate restorations
- Minimally invasive veneers (minimal-prep or no-prep)
- Composite resin veneers
All veneers are placed using adhesive cementation under absolute isolation. This creates a strong bond and protects the teeth during the procedure.
Complex Oral Rehabilitation
For patients with significant tooth loss or severe wear, the clinic provides full oral rehabilitation. These treatments address bite collapse and restore the vertical dimension of the face. The focus is on balancing biological health with aesthetic results. Typical rehabilitation cases involve:
- Renewal of old fixed or removable prostheses
- Installation of dental bridges and crowns
- Implant-based restoration using recognized brand systems
- Management of severe bite complexity
Rehabilitation plans take between 3 and 12 months depending on complexity. If dental implants are necessary, patients allow an additional 3–6 months for bone healing.
Diagnostics and Digital Technology
The clinic uses a fully digital diagnostic suite. Cerec Omnicam scanning replaces traditional uncomfortable putty impressions. This technology produces accurate 3D digital models instantly. For surgical cases, the team uses 3D tomography to plan implant placement safely.
Surgical guides are produced when applicable to improve accuracy during implant procedures. These digital tools help the clinic maintain a minimally invasive approach throughout treatment.
