Treatments & Specialties
At Clínica Dental K&M in Puerto Montt, the team specializes in three core areas of contemporary dentistry:
- Orthodontics (Ortodoncia): K&M provides comprehensive orthodontic treatment for patients of all ages — from early interceptive treatment for children to full corrective therapy for adults. Treatment options include traditional metal braces, ceramic braces for a more discreet appearance, and clear aligner systems that allow patients to straighten their teeth without visible brackets. Orthodontic treatment at the clinic addresses overcrowding, spacing issues, overbite, underbite, crossbite, and open bite, improving both dental function and smile aesthetics.
- Dental Implants (Implantes): Clínica Dental K&M is a recognized provider of dental implant treatment in Puerto Montt. The clinic manages the complete implant process from initial diagnostic assessment through surgical placement and final prosthetic restoration. Titanium dental implants are placed directly into the jawbone, where they integrate with the bone tissue to provide a permanent, stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or full-arch prostheses. Implants at K&M are recommended as the gold-standard solution for patients with single or multiple missing teeth.
- Smile Design (Diseño de Sonrisa): The clinic's smile design service is a comprehensive cosmetic dental program that combines digital planning with aesthetic and restorative procedures to create personalized, harmonious smiles. Smile design at K&M may involve porcelain veneers, dental crowns, professional teeth whitening, gum contouring, and composite bonding — all coordinated to deliver a balanced, natural-looking transformation aligned with each patient's facial features and preferences.
- Teeth Whitening: Professional teeth whitening treatments — both in-office and take-home — help patients achieve visibly brighter smiles quickly and safely, often as a standalone procedure or as part of a broader smile design plan.
- Dental Veneers: Ultra-thin porcelain veneers are custom-made and bonded to the front surfaces of teeth, correcting imperfections such as discoloration, chips, uneven shapes, and minor spacing — with highly aesthetic, durable results.
- General Dentistry: Complementing the clinic's specialist focus, K&M provides foundational dental services including examinations, professional cleanings, cavity treatment, and preventive care to support the overall oral health of implant, orthodontic, and cosmetic patients.
- Dental Prosthetics: Fixed and implant-supported prosthetic solutions restore full function and aesthetics for patients who have experienced significant tooth loss, with attention to color matching and natural appearance.
