I cannot praise Dr. Lapeira enough. My friend and I came for extensive treatment. We were here for a month. Even before we boarded the plane they cared for us. They helped us rent an apartment less than two blocks from the clinic. There was a car and driver waiting at the airport. He and his wife treated us like family. But what really mattered was their dental care. My mouth was…

s suffering from years of neglect. I hadn't been able to eat solid food in months. They had a team of specialists. One did cleaning. An orthodontic surgeon did the implants and removed the roots and tooth fragments from a botched extraction done in the US. Another did the root canals (I needed 23). Another designed and fitted the crowns. Every step of the way they kept us informed and asked if we were happy with each procedure. The end result was magic. WAY beyond my expectations. The end result was priceless. I am not ashamed to smile anymore. I look 10 years younger. I'm not an emotional guy but it literally brought me to tears. They got it on video. LOL.

Steven, thank you from the bottom of my heart for such a deeply moving review. It was truly an honor to look after you and your friend during your time here in Barranquilla. Our goal at Carlos Lapeira Dental Studio has always been to provide a holistic experience—not just clinical care, but ensuring you felt supported and "at home" from the moment you landed until you were ready to fly back. It was a privilege for me and my dedicated team of specialists to work on your case. From the surgical implants and the endodontic work to the final restoration of your smile, we were fully committed to your comfort and health every step of the way. Knowing that we helped you regain the ability to eat, eat with confidence, and look in the mirror with joy is why we do what we do. That moment when you saw your final smile is a memory I will cherish forever—and I am so glad we have that video to look back on! Thank you for trusting us with your health and for allowing us to treat you like family. You are always welcome back, and we look forward to seeing that smile again soon.

My experience with the doctor has been excellent. A great professional. When I first came in for treatment, I had a crooked bite and could barely open my mouth. This improved greatly with the treatment, so I haven't had any problems since, …

I want to clarify that although the doctor is my cousin, I'm his patient because the care at his office is excellent. All the staff are very friendly and always have the best attitude and willingness to help achieve the best results.

Excellent service, quality, and efficiency; it met my expectations for the orthodontics of my two children. Both had highly complex cases and completely different needs.

I had what they call a "dogfight"—my teeth were completely crooked, some much further back than others—and the doctor, with his orthodontics, gave me a gorgeous, perfect smile. I highly recommend him; he's truly worth it. It's been about 10 …
Jazmin Ramos via Google 5.0 out of 5
An excellent professional. I remember searching and researching for an orthodontist and I came across Carlos Lapeira. More than just a good doctor, he's also a wonderful human being. Thank you, Dr. Carlos.
Eduardo McCausland via Google 5.0 out of 5
I can't give Dr. Carlos enough stars. His dental work, his instruction, and his positive energy made my son's braces process a breeze. What's more, he went out of his way to arrange for him to travel to the university in another city with everything included...continuing and monitoring the final stages of treatment remotely.
Rosanna Juvinao Pernett via Google 5.0 out of 5
100% recommended. Excellent professional with great interpersonal skills.
Beatriz Garcia via Google 5.0 out of 5
I highly recommend him. I've known his work for over 20 years and he's an excellent professional. My two children were his patients and it was the best decision I ever made.
