Clear braces treatment at GO Dental in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, uses removable Invisalign aligners or tooth-colored ceramic brackets. Digital scans help plan alignment without traditional impression trays.
Clear aligners and ceramic brackets
Invisalign aligners are custom-made and removable, so patients can take them out for meals and oral hygiene. Each aligner is usually worn for about two weeks before moving to the next one. Treatment typically takes 9–15 months, depending on the patient.
Ceramic brackets offer a tooth-colored option, including for adults seeking a less visible alternative to metal brackets. The orthodontic team is led by Dr. Arlette Florencio, who specializes in orthodontics and Invisalign.
Digital planning and follow-up
GO Dental uses a CEREC Omnicam scanner to create digital diagnostic models. Imaging options include a Planmeca Promax Scara 2 panoramic system and Posdion Rextar-X portable radiography.
Treatment may include study, alignment, bite correction, closing gaps, finishing, appliance removal, and retention. Checkups for adjustments generally take place monthly. After treatment, retainers may be fixed hygienic wires or removable acrylic and metal arches, with periodic control visits.
Orthodontic treatment can be suitable at any age, while some bite problems are best assessed from about age 7. For anxious patients, conscious intravenous sedation is available with an anesthesiologist monitoring them.
The clinic holds Healthgrades accreditation and has a 4.9/5 rating from 170+ Google reviews. Patients can request a consultation through Bookimed to discuss which option may fit their needs.
