CLÍNICA ODONTOLÓGICA CARVALHO

Treatments & Specialties

Implantology (implantodontia) is the clinic's flagship specialty. Clínica Odontológica Carvalho offers the full range of implant-based solutions, from single-tooth implants to complex full-arch rehabilitation using fixed implant-supported prostheses. Dr. Leonardo Carvalho's postgraduate training from Faculdade São Leopoldo Mandic in implantology ensures that patients receive specialist-level surgical and prosthetic management. Pre-implant bone grafting and guided bone regeneration are available for patients who require bone augmentation before implant placement.

Oral rehabilitation (reabilitação oral) encompasses the comprehensive restoration of dental function and aesthetics for patients with extensive tooth loss or severely compromised dentitions. This discipline draws on the combined expertise of implantology and prosthodontics to deliver customized rehabilitative solutions, including implant-supported crowns, fixed bridges, and full-arch reconstructions. Aesthetic dentistry (odontologia estética) covers dental veneers, contact lenses (ultra-thin porcelain laminates), professional teeth whitening, and comprehensive smile makeovers.

Orofacial harmonization (harmonização orofacial) integrates facial aesthetic procedures with dental treatment to achieve balanced, natural-looking results that go beyond the teeth alone. Digital dentistry (odontologia digital) uses computer-aided design and digital workflow tools to enhance the precision of prosthetic, implant, and aesthetic treatment planning. Orthodontics corrects dental alignment for all ages. Endodontics (root canal treatment) preserves natural teeth threatened by pulp infection. Periodontics treats gum disease and supports long-term oral health. Oral and maxillofacial surgery (bucomaxilofacial) handles complex surgical cases. Dental radiology provides in-house diagnostic imaging, including radiographic documentation for treatment planning and case records.

Technology & Facilities

Clínica Odontológica Carvalho invests in modern clinical technology aligned with its specialist focus. Digital dentistry workflows — including digital impressions, CAD/CAM-supported restorations, and digital treatment simulation — increase the precision and predictability of prosthetic and implant outcomes. In-house dental radiology provides radiographic documentation and supports diagnostic accuracy across all specialties, reducing reliance on external imaging centers and streamlining the patient journey.

The clinic's two Salvador locations provide comfortable, professionally equipped environments: the Brotas main clinic is close to Metrô Brotas (Salvador's metro), and the Pituba location within Hospital da Bahia places the clinic in one of Salvador's premier medical facilities — providing access to hospital-grade infrastructure when needed for complex surgical cases. Sterilization and infection control at both locations comply with Brazilian ANVISA standards.
