Endodontics and Tooth Preservation
Dr. Paola Ubiera heads the endodontics department. She has over eight years of clinical experience and completed her postgraduate training in Endodoncia in 2022. The department focuses on preserving natural tooth structure while restoring full chewing function.
Specialists perform Necropulpectomía II to treat complex cases. This involves deep cleaning and disinfecting root canals, followed by a precise seal and final restoration. The clinic uses digital radiographic reports for detailed case management.
For urgent cases, the clinic offers the Programa Aliados. This service provides specialized endodontic attention in less than 48 hours, designed for rapid intervention in complex nerve cases.
Orthodontics and Alignment
Orthodontic care addresses bite problems and tooth misalignment. Treatments are available for both functional and aesthetic improvements. The clinic manages various conditions:
- Overbite (sobremordida)
- Underbite (submordida)
- Crowded or misaligned teeth
Patients can choose between traditional braces and Alineadores (clear aligners). Specialized lingual braces are also available for more discreet treatment.
Periodontal Therapy and Rehabilitation
The Periodoncia area treats gum inflammation, bleeding, and retraction. Care plans range from single restorations to complete mouth rehabilitations. Depending on severity, specialists use crowns, bridges, or dental implants to restore the health of supporting tissues.
Diagnostic Technology
The clinic uses advanced imaging for accurate treatment planning. These tools help identify underlying issues before procedures begin:
- Periapical X-ray for detailed views of individual teeth
- Panoramic X-ray for broad jaw imaging
- Digital radiographic reporting for immediate assessment
Every endodontic case begins with a clinical evaluation and radiographic testing. These steps define the condition of the tooth structure.

The clinic accepts various insurance plans, including ARS Reservas and other ARS options. International patients receive structured care coordination to manage their travel timelines.
