Denta Sana is a multi-specialty dental clinic in Santo Domingo's Piantini district. The facility has nine specialized departments serving adults and children. Eight doctors make up the medical team, with a focus on digital diagnostics and clear treatment planning. Care centers on the Denta Sana 360 evaluation, which turns clinical findings into easy-to-read patient reports.
Specialized Medical Team and Research
Founder Dr. Úrsula Maratos leads the clinic as a pediatric dentistry specialist. The team includes experts across dental disciplines who contribute to medical education and research. Dr. Enrique Aquino Rivero is a Professor of Oral Surgery and collaborates on oral medicine studies. Periodontist Dr. Kenia Veras teaches at the Pontifical Catholic University Madre y Maestra. She has coauthored studies in Clinical Oral Investigations.
Several specialists hold active roles in international dental organizations. Dr. Vanessa Romero is a Diamond Elite Provider for Invisalign – the first orthodontist in the Dominican Republic to reach this status. Other key specialists include Dr. Annie Rosa for oral rehabilitation and Dr. Karol Tineo for periodontics. Many team members volunteer with social programs like Operation Smile and the Laughing Children Foundation.
Dental Specialties and Procedures
Denta Sana offers a full range of dental treatments with digital planning tools. Specialists perform procedures across several key areas:
- Orthodontics: The clinic provides Invisalign clear aligners and fixed metal or aesthetic braces. Digital records and intraoral scanning guide precise treatment planning.
- Pediatric Dentistry: Specialists offer preventive care, including sealants and fluoride treatments. They use age-appropriate explanations to keep children calm.
- Oral Surgery: Surgeons perform tooth extractions, wisdom teeth removal, and dental osteotomies. Procedures use local anesthesia with post-operative monitoring.
- Implantology: The team places single and multiple dental implants. Planning includes bone assessments and radiological studies for proper root placement.
- Periodontics: Treatments for gum disease include scaling and root planing. Specialists provide periodic maintenance to manage dental mobility and persistent bad breath.
Digital Smile Design aligns facial proportions with dental treatments. This technology lets patients see planned aesthetic improvements before treatment begins.
Diagnostic Technology
The clinic uses digital radiography to improve diagnostic accuracy while reducing radiation exposure. Key equipment includes:
- Panoramic X-ray (OPG): An extraoral scan that captures the entire mouth in seconds.
- CEREC Omnicam: A digital scanning system that creates precise 3D impressions.
- Digital Radiography: Low-dose imaging with immediate on-screen review.
- Periapical Radiography: Targeted imaging for detailed views of specific teeth and roots.
Patients receive digital copies of all imaging for their personal records. The clinic uses these scans to explain findings visually during the same visit.
Services for International Patients
Denta Sana supports international patients through detailed second opinion consultations. The clinical team reviews prior radiographs and reports sent from abroad. If the provided data is insufficient, the clinic performs new digital scans to clarify options. Every second opinion includes a complete clinical exam and a visual report. The clinic provides follow-up reviews to monitor healing after surgical interventions.
