Centro Dental Integral SRL is a private multi-specialty dental clinic in Santo Domingo. Established in 2021, it operates as a family-led practice spanning three generations of dentists. The team provides specialized care across four departments. These focus on orthodontics, full mouth restoration, and pediatric dental guidance.
Medical Team and Expertise
The clinic has a specialized medical team including PhD-level practitioners and professors. Dr. Fabiola Alvarez leads the orthodontic department. She earned her PhD in Orthodontics and Maxillofacial Orthopedics from the University of São Paulo. Her background includes advanced certifications in dental aesthetics and computed tomography.
The doctors work as a cohesive unit to manage complex restorative cases. This family-based structure allows for long-term continuity of care. The practice traces its clinical roots back to 1983 through the work of its senior lead doctors. This multi-generational experience supports treatment planning for both children and adults.
Orthodontics and Digital Planning
The clinic specializes in digital orthodontic planning for invisible aligners. Instead of automated templates, specialists design the movement for every individual tooth. This precise approach ensures teeth move exactly to their intended positions. Several bracket-based systems are available:
- Self-ligating braces – these use an intelligent gate system instead of elastics
- Damon braces – designed for smoother tooth movement with less pressure
- Maxillofacial orthopedics for early pediatric intervention
- Clear, removable aligner systems for aesthetic corrections
For self-ligating systems, follow-up visits occur every 8 weeks. This schedule accommodates busy routines while maintaining continuous force on the teeth. Patients typically experience 3–5 days of mild sensitivity after installation or adjustments.
Dental Implants and Restoration
The restorative department focuses on replacing missing teeth and repairing damaged structures. Specialists perform same-day dental implant placement in eligible cases. Patients can receive a titanium post and a temporary tooth during a single visit. Zirconia dental implants are available for those seeking metal-free options.
Restorative treatments use composite resin to repair fractures and treat caries. These materials restore the natural shape of both front and back teeth. For aesthetic improvements, professional dental whitening and gingivoplasty are available. Gingivoplasty is often recommended after braces removal to contour the gums.
Periodontal Care and Oral Surgery
The clinic manages advanced gum health issues, including periodontitis with significant bone loss. Orthodontic treatment is possible for these patients once the condition is biologically controlled. Specialists require impeccable hygiene and healthy bone foundations before starting any tooth movement. Surgical services include extraction of complex roots and impacted teeth when necessary.
Technology and Services
Digital planning platforms increase the predictability of dental outcomes. These systems let doctors simulate results before treatment begins. For patients with periodontal concerns, the team emphasizes diagnostic accuracy to respect underlying biology. Patients can coordinate orthodontics, surgery, and aesthetics in one location.
