Botafogo Dental Clinic

Clinica Odontologica Botafogo is one of Rio de Janeiro's most established dental practices, with 30 years of continuous operation in the Botafogo neighborhood. Led by technical director Dra. Patrizia Pedone (CRO/RJ 20564), the clinic operates from its own dedicated building on Rua Assis Bueno, housing a team of 8 CRO-registered dentists, 3 fully equipped treatment rooms with X-ray capability, an on-site prosthetic laboratory, a sterilization unit compliant with health surveillance legislation, and a Day Clinic rest area. The practice covers 14 dental specialties and blends modern technology with a humanized, traditional approach to patient care.

The clinic's defining advantage is its 30-year heritage combined with a self-contained clinical infrastructure that few practices in Rio de Janeiro can match. Operating from its own building rather than a rented office suite means the clinic controls its entire environment, from the 3 treatment rooms to the on-site prosthetic laboratory where dentures, crowns, and bridges are fabricated in-house for quality control and faster turnaround. The dedicated sterilization unit processes all instruments according to Brazilian health surveillance (vigilancia sanitaria) regulations, and the Day Clinic rest area provides a private recovery space for patients undergoing extended or multiple procedures in a single visit. The 8-dentist team covers 14 specialties under one roof, meaning patients can receive comprehensive care from initial examination through complex rehabilitation without referrals to external providers. The practice philosophy explicitly combines new technology with old-fashioned humanized care, prioritizing the personal patient relationship that has sustained the clinic across three decades in the same neighborhood. Credit and debit card payments are accepted.
