CAMOA — Clínica de Atendimento Médico e Odontológico do Acre — is a dental and medical clinic located at Rua Hugo Carneiro 578, in the Bosque neighbourhood of Rio Branco, Acre, Brazil. Founded in 2001 by dental surgeon Dr. André Luiz Tavares da Cruz Maia, CAMOA has operated for more than twenty years and has established itself as one of the most comprehensive dental and medical clinics in the north of Brazil. The clinic accepts a range of health insurance plans operating in Acre and Brazil, in addition to private patients. Contact is available by phone at +55 68 99205-0468.
Rio Branco is the capital of Acre, one of Brazil's westernmost states, situated in the southwestern Amazon region bordering Bolivia and Peru. With approximately 400,000 residents, it is the administrative, commercial, and healthcare centre of the state. The Bosque neighbourhood — where CAMOA is located — is a central residential district of Rio Branco, positioned along one of the main streets of the city. Rua Hugo Carneiro connects the Bosque area to the broader urban network, and the neighbourhood is served by local bus routes and private vehicle access. Dental clinics in the Bosque district serve both the immediate residential population and patients who travel from other parts of the city or from interior municipalities in Acre for specialist treatment in Rio Branco.
Dr. André Maia and CAMOA
Dr. André Luiz Tavares da Cruz Maia founded CAMOA in 2001 with a vision of creating a medical-dental clinic of high clinical standards in Rio Branco. Over the subsequent two decades, the clinic grew into what has been recognised — including in regional media coverage — as one of the most complete medical-dental facilities in the north of Brazil. This recognition reflects both the breadth of services offered and the clinical depth developed across more than twenty years of operation.
CAMOA's model as a combined medical and dental facility (as reflected in its full name, Clínica de Atendimento Médico e Odontológico do Acre) positions it within a relatively uncommon category of private healthcare provider in Brazil — one that integrates dental care with medical services and aesthetic medicine under a single clinical structure. This allows patients to address a range of health and aesthetic concerns within one environment, managed by a coordinated team.
Services
CAMOA provides a comprehensive range of dental treatments and facial aesthetic procedures.
- Dental implants: titanium implant placement for single or full-arch tooth replacement
- Orthodontics: fixed braces and orthodontic appliances for alignment correction
- Endodontics: root canal treatment for infected or damaged teeth
- Periodontics: treatment of gum disease and periodontal conditions
- Aesthetic dentistry: veneers, composite bonding, and smile design
- Teeth whitening: in-clinic whitening for aesthetic improvement
- Oral surgery: extractions, bone grafting, and surgical dental procedures
- Orofacial harmonisation: Botox (botulinum toxin) for facial aesthetic treatment
- Dermal fillers: hyaluronic acid facial filling procedures
- Skin aesthetics: chemical peel and microneedling treatments
Dental implants are among the most technically demanding services offered at CAMOA, requiring surgical placement of titanium posts into the jawbone and subsequent restoration with ceramic crowns or bridges after osseointegration. The clinic's twenty-year track record in implantology reflects the accumulation of case complexity and clinical refinement that distinguishes experienced implant providers from those offering the procedure as a newer addition to their service list.
Periodontics — the treatment of gum disease and conditions affecting the supporting structures of teeth — is a discipline with significant prevalence in the Brazilian population. Periodontal disease ranges from gingivitis (reversible gum inflammation) to periodontitis (progressive bone and attachment loss), and managing these conditions requires a dedicated clinical approach including professional scaling, root planing, and in advanced cases, surgical intervention. Including periodontics in the service offer positions CAMOA as a clinic capable of managing complex dental cases where gum health is a prerequisite for other restorative work.
The facial aesthetic services at CAMOA — including Botox, hyaluronic acid fillers, chemical peels, and microneedling — extend the clinic's scope into medical aesthetic territory. Brazilian dentists are legally authorised to perform Botox and filler procedures in orofacial areas following specialist training, and the integration of these procedures within a dental clinic environment is increasingly common at high-standard private practices across Brazil.
