Centro Odontológico Dr. Carlos Gómez is a private dental facility in Constanza, Dominican Republic. Dr. Carlos Gómez founded the center in 2013. It started as a general dentistry practice and has grown into a multi-specialty clinic. The facility operates from a single building with seven departments and a team of two specialized physicians.
Clinical Achievements and Volume
Since opening, the clinic has performed over 10,500 procedures and handled about 1,000 treatment cases. The surgical team has completed more than 2,800 operations. Nearly 4,400 patients have received care here. The practice focuses on complex restorative cases and oral rehabilitation.
Oral Rehabilitation and Implantology
The clinic specializes in Oral Rehabilitation – restoring dental function and aesthetics for patients with major tooth loss or damage. Dr. Carlos Gómez leads this department after training at Ibero-American University. The team uses several implant systems to match different bone conditions and patient needs:
- Straumann Dental Implants
- Nobel Biocare Dental Implants
- Mis Dental Implants
- In-Kone Tekka Dental Implants
- Simple Swiss Dental Implants
The clinic offers mini-implants for patients who need less invasive options. These work well when bone density is limited or to stabilize removable dentures. Provisional work often refines the dental profile before final prosthetics go in.
Dental Specialties and Surgery
The center provides the following specialized dental services:
- Oral Surgery: Surgical extraction of impacted third molars and bone-related procedures.
- Endodontics: Root canal treatments to preserve natural teeth affected by infection or trauma.
- Orthodontics: Tooth alignment correction using various appliances, including Hawley retainers for post-treatment stability.
- Periodontics: Gum disease treatment through procedures like gingivectomy and frenectomy.
- Pediatric Dentistry: Preventive and curative care for children from early childhood through adolescence.
For restorative care, the clinic uses resin reconstruction and amalgams to repair cavities. Specialists plan aesthetic zone work so restorations match the natural look of front teeth.
Diagnostic Technology
The clinic uses Oral Radiology to plan all surgical and rehabilitative treatments. This includes periapical X-rays for detailed views of individual teeth and panoramic radiographs. These images help doctors assess bone structure, root health, and impacted tooth positions before surgery.
Services for Patients
The clinic works with many insurance providers. Supported plans include ARS Humano, Universal, Palic, Futuro, Senasa, Yunen, Reservas, and Renacer. International patients should confirm their plan covers major procedures like implants and oral rehabilitation before arriving.
