Specialized Aesthetic Dentistry

Odontología Estética Especializada is a multi-specialty dental clinic in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. It opened in 2001 and has five specialized departments in one building. Its five doctors combine oral health care with aesthetic wellness.

Dental Specialties and Treatment Methods

The clinic covers a wide range of dental services through specialized units. These include orthodontics, maxillofacial surgery, and pediatric dentistry. Each department builds a personalized treatment plan around the patient's functional and aesthetic needs.

Orthodontics and Maxillary Orthopedics

Specialists here straighten teeth and guide jaw growth. They offer several corrective options for patients of all ages:

• Invisalign clear aligners for discreet teeth straightening
• Lingual braces fitted to the back of the teeth
• Maxillary orthopedics to correct problems with jaw structure
• Traditional orthodontic appliances

Dr. Annabella Lainville and Dr. Ana P. Fondeur each have around 25 years of experience in this field. Both are professors at Ibero-American University (UNIBE).

Rehabilitative and Aesthetic Dentistry

This department restores tooth function and improves the look of a smile. Surgeons and prosthodontists handle everything from minor repairs to full mouth reconstructions. Available procedures include:

• Dental prosthetics and implants
• Composite fillings for cavities
• Professional tooth whitening
• Oral pathology and periodontics

Dr. Oscar Irizarry specializes in dental aesthetics and implant rehabilitation. Dr. Jatnna Almonte handles maxillofacial surgery and complex implant cases. Oral pathology cases go to Dr. Jeaneth López Labady, who holds a PhD in Dentistry.

Pediatric Care and Specialized Therapy

Dr. Jessica Fernández leads pediatric dentistry. She completed postgraduate training at the International University of Catalonia.

Speech and myofunctional therapy are part of dental care at the clinic. This means patients can improve how their mouth muscles work alongside standard dental treatment.

Diagnostic Technology

The clinic has its own imaging tools for accurate treatment planning. All diagnostic services are on-site, so the process is simpler for patients. The facility has several imaging systems:

• Dental CT for 3D views of the lower jaw and bone structure
• Panoramic X-ray systems for full-mouth images (orthopantomograms)
• Diagnostic imaging for maxillofacial surgery planning

Specialists use these scans to create precise guides for implants and orthodontic tooth movement. Doctors can then spot hidden problems before complex procedures begin.

International Memberships and Affiliations

The medical team belongs to several global professional organizations. These memberships show a commitment to international dental standards. Doctors at the clinic are members of:

• American Association of Orthodontics (AAO)
• World Federation of Orthodontics
• International Association of Pediatric Dentistry (IAPD)
• Latin American Association of Orthodontists

Through these links, the staff stay connected to the latest dental research. The clinic has its own research section focused on improving clinical techniques.

International Patient Services

The clinic treats patients from around the world who come to the Dominican Republic for dental tourism. Its staff offer specialized care for international visitors who want a smile makeover.

For patient well-being, the clinic runs the CLUB DE SALUD concept. This health club gives patients and their families access to an exclusive network of benefits. Its services extend to aesthetic medicine, such as facial modelers and hyaluronic acid treatments.
