Services

Dra. Michelly Gonzaga provides a focused range of specialist and aesthetic dental services.

• Endodontics: root canal treatment for infected or inflamed dental pulp
• Restorations: direct composite resin restorations and indirect ceramic inlays and onlays
• Dental veneers: ceramic or composite laminates for smile design and aesthetic improvement
• Teeth whitening: in-clinic and take-home whitening treatments
• Preventive care: examinations and dental maintenance

Root canal treatment — tratamento de canal — is indicated when the dental pulp becomes infected or necrotic due to deep decay, repeated dental procedures, cracks, or dental trauma. The procedure involves the removal of pulpal tissue, thorough cleaning and shaping of the root canal system, and the sealing of the canals with a biocompatible material (gutta-percha) to prevent reinfection. Root canal treatment allows a tooth to be retained in the mouth rather than extracted, after which it is typically restored with a crown or large filling to protect the remaining tooth structure. Endodontic specialist training in Brazil requires a two-year postgraduate programme, and practitioners with this qualification are equipped to manage complex root canal anatomy, retreatment of previously failed cases, and endodontic emergencies.

Dental veneers — facetas — are thin porcelain or composite shells bonded to the front surfaces of teeth to modify colour, shape, size, and surface texture. They are used to correct aesthetic issues such as discolouration that does not respond to whitening, minor chips or cracks, small gaps between teeth, or slight misalignment in the front teeth. The success of veneers depends on careful case selection, tooth preparation technique, laboratory quality, and bonding precision. When the clinical and laboratory work is executed correctly, veneers provide a natural-looking and durable aesthetic result.

Restorations at Dra. Michelly Gonzaga's practice encompass both direct and indirect work. Direct composite resin restorations are placed and shaped by the dentist chairside, in a single appointment. Indirect restorations — including ceramic inlays, onlays, and overlays — are fabricated in a dental laboratory and bonded to the tooth at a second appointment, providing superior aesthetics and durability for larger restorations where composite alone may not perform optimally.
