Dental Master AS is a multi-specialty dental clinic in Medellín, Colombia. The facility operates from a single building with five specialized departments. Five specialists treat local and international patients, including those from the United States.
Medical Specialization and Specialists
Dr. Rubén Arbeláez leads the clinic. He specializes in cosmetic dentistry and dental implants. His team includes:
- Dr. Alejandro Rivera – Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
- Dr. Sara López – Orthodontics
- Dr. Brayan Hernández – Endodontics
- Dr. Natalia Cadavid – Periodontics
These specialists handle a range of dental conditions and restorative needs. The clinic follows strict biosafety protocols for all surgical and cosmetic procedures.
Dental Implants and Oral Rehabilitation
The clinic offers permanent tooth replacement with single or multiple implants. Surgeons use the FLAPLESS technique, which requires no incisions or sutures. This reduces post-operative swelling and pain. Rehabilitation options include:
- All-on-4 and All-on-6 full-arch systems
- Fixed prostheses screwed directly onto implants
- Immediate and deferred loading protocols
- Complete rehabilitation with monolithic zirconia crowns
The implant process has two stages. First, surgeons place the implant into the bone. Once healed, the team manufactures and installs the final crown.
Cosmetic Dentistry and Smile Design
Smile design begins with computerized facial and dental analysis. This lets specialists evaluate tooth shape, color, and position before starting treatment. Aesthetic options include:
- Porcelain and composite veneers
- Cosmetic crowns and ceramic lenses
- Teeth whitening and aesthetic contouring
Patients with dental anxiety can receive inhaled nitrous oxide sedation. This keeps them comfortable during cosmetic or surgical sessions.
Endodontics, Periodontics, and Oral Surgery
The endodontics department performs root canal treatments for single-rooted and multi-rooted teeth. Specialists use diagnostic tools to detect root fractures and treat deep infections surgically. Periodontal care focuses on gum health:
- Treatment of gingivitis and periodontitis
- Regenerative periodontal surgery
- Specialized periodontal maintenance programs
Oral surgery includes wisdom tooth and third molar extractions. Surgeons also remove cysts and benign tumors and perform lip and tongue frenectomies. Small-incision techniques speed up healing.
Diagnostic Technology
Dental Master takes a digital-first approach to treatment planning. Patients can send X-rays before arrival for early analysis. Available diagnostic tools include:
- CEREC Omnicam for digital impressions and diagnostic models
- DIAGNOCam for laser-based cavity detection
- Electronic axiography to record jaw movement
- Periapical, panoramic, and targeted X-rays
Digital Smile Design software creates a visual map of final results. This ensures the treatment plan matches the patient's facial proportions.
Services for International Patients
International guests can book an all-inclusive Dental Treatment Full Package. This simplifies travel through a structured three-step experience. The clinic provides:
- Airport pickup by a bilingual driver
- Private transportation between the office and lodging
- Coordination for hotel or Airbnb stays
- Pre-arrival digital X-ray analysis for rapid diagnosis
Every patient receives post-treatment guidance as part of their care plan. This helps maintain the function and appearance of dental work over time.
