These statistics reflect the clinic's focus on predictable results through detailed planning.
Specialties and Aesthetic Methods
The clinic specializes in HandMade Smile®, a methodology that avoids repetitive formulas or templates. Each treatment begins with a detailed analysis of facial form, lip proportions, and skin tone. This ensures the final result respects the patient's identity and expression.
Aesthetic Dentistry and Veneers
Specialists use digital smile design to preview results before restorative treatments. The clinic offers several veneer types to address tooth alignment and color. In some cases, orthodontics comes first to improve tooth position before final laminates.
Primary aesthetic procedures include:
- Emax ceramic veneers for high-aesthetic restoration
- Porcelain laminates for smile contouring
- Direct resin veneers (dental bonding) to restore tooth anatomy
- Teeth whitening (dental bleaching)
For resin restorations, the doctor designs natural features like mamelones and incisal translucency. These techniques prevent the flat, artificial look common in standard dental work.
Dental Implants and Rehabilitation
Dr. Juan Castillo provides various implant solutions for missing teeth. The clinic uses computer-assisted planning for accurate placement. Treatments range from single tooth replacement to full arch restorations using Zirconia implants or overdentures.
Available implant techniques include:
- Endosteal and subperiosteal implants
- Zygomatic implants for patients with low bone density
- All-on-2 and 4-implant overdentures
- Implants with CAD-supported crowns
Orofacial Harmony
The clinic integrates dental work with full-face planning for facial balance. This specialty involves facial marking to identify strategic points and symmetries. The goal is a smile that complements the overall facial structure and skin tone.
Technology and Planning Workflow
The clinic uses a planning-first workflow to deliver predictable outcomes. Surgeons begin with facial marking before any contouring starts. This identifies specific proportions and strategic facial points for personalized profiling.
Digital tools are central to diagnosis. Digital smile design lets patients see planned changes before physical work begins. This technology helps the specialist analyze dental anatomy and expectations virtually.
International Patient Services
Dr. Juan Castillo treats both national and international patients, including public figures and artists. The clinic provides educational resources via a blog about the planning process. Every international case requires a personalized evaluation to determine the treatment sequence.
Consultations are essential because the clinic does not use standardized templates for HandMade Smile®. Pricing is determined only after an in-person clinical evaluation. This ensures the treatment plan accounts for the patient's unique dental structure and health needs.
