Treatments and Specialties

The practice of Dr. Frederico Lessa in Ponta Grossa offers a focused portfolio of high-complexity dental treatments. Dental implants are the core specialty, covering single-tooth replacements, multiple-unit implant bridges, and full-arch restorations. Guided implant surgery using the Neodent system allows for precisely planned placement based on 3D imaging data, improving outcomes and enabling minimally invasive procedures. Immediate load implants allow patients to receive a temporary prosthesis on the same day as implant placement in suitable cases. Bone grafting addresses cases where insufficient bone volume would otherwise prevent implant placement. Porcelain veneers and dental contact lenses deliver comprehensive smile makeovers, while fixed complete dentures (full-arch prosthetics) restore full function and aesthetics for edentulous patients. Implant maintenance ensures the long-term health of placed implants and supporting tissues.

Team and Credentials

The practice is built around Dr. Frederico Machado de Sousa Lessa (CRO/PR 17581), who holds a dental degree from UEPG (Universidade Estadual de Ponta Grossa) and a postgraduate specialization in implantodontia from ILAPEO (Instituto Latino Americano de Pesquisa e Ensino Odontológico), completed in 2012. ILAPEO is one of Brazil's most respected postgraduate dental institutions, recognized for its rigorous clinical training in implant surgery and related disciplines. Dr. Lessa has continuously expanded his expertise through postgraduate courses in prosthodontics, gingival plastic surgery, hospital dentistry, and laser therapy, maintaining a high standard of clinical versatility.

Facilities and Technology

The practice at Ponta Grossa's Ortoclinic is equipped to support advanced implant and prosthetic procedures. The Neodent Guided Surgery system enables 3D-planned, computer-guided implant placement with surgical templates fabricated from digital imaging data, reducing procedural variability and enhancing precision. Laser therapy equipment supports soft-tissue procedures and post-operative healing. All clinical areas adhere to ANVISA infection control standards for patient safety.
