How it works
In-office only
García Moreno and Av. González Suárez, Cuenca. Dental care is not provided at home. The office holds an operating permit from ACESS, Ecuador's health regulator.
By appointment, same day if there's room
We confirm the time on WhatsApp. If you're in pain, tell us: we'll look for the first open slot.
First, the assessment
The dentist examines your mouth and explains what she found and which treatment she recommends.
X-rays: ordered, not taken
X-rays aren't taken at the office. If you need them, the dentist orders them so you can have them done at an imaging center.
Cash, bank transfer and insurance
Electronic invoice if you need one. With insurance, we work by reimbursement: you submit the claim form to your insurer.
Care in Spanish
The appointment is in Spanish only.
