FJ Odontologia

Treatments and Specialties

The clinic covers a comprehensive range of dental disciplines, from surgical implant placement to orthodontic alignment and cosmetic veneers. This breadth makes it suitable for patients who need coordinated interdisciplinary treatment rather than referrals to separate specialist practices.

• Implantology: dental implant placement and restoration for missing teeth
• Facial harmonization: aesthetic and therapeutic facial procedures
• Contact lens veneers (lente de contato dental): ultra-thin porcelain veneers for cosmetic smile improvement
• Orthodontics: alignment treatments for teeth and bite correction
• Periodontics: gum and bone health management
• Prosthetics: fixed and removable prostheses for tooth replacement
• Dental aesthetics: broader cosmetic dental treatments

Implantology is a primary specialty at FJ Odontologia. Dental implants replace missing teeth with titanium fixtures surgically anchored into the jaw bone, onto which crowns, bridges, or full-arch prostheses are attached. Once integrated with the bone through osseointegration, implants function and feel like natural teeth, preserving bone volume in the jaw and providing a durable long-term solution. Implant treatment ranges from straightforward single-tooth cases to complex full-mouth rehabilitations using multiple implants.

Facial harmonization refers to minimally invasive aesthetic procedures applied to the face. Licensed Brazilian dental surgeons can perform procedures including botulinum toxin applications and dermal fillers within their qualified scope. In a dental context, these are used for both therapeutic purposes, such as managing bruxism through masseter reduction, and for cosmetic improvements in the perioral and facial region. The inclusion of facial harmonization alongside implants and aesthetics positions FJ Odontologia as a practice that addresses both dental and facial appearance comprehensively.

Contact lens veneers, marketed as lente de contato dental in Brazil, are ultra-thin porcelain veneers that are bonded to the front surfaces of teeth with minimal or no tooth preparation. They address colour, shape, spacing, and minor alignment irregularities cosmetically. The category is distinct from conventional porcelain veneers (facetas) in its thickness and preparation requirements, though both achieve aesthetic improvements through ceramic bonded to the natural tooth structure.

Orthodontics at the clinic covers the correction of misaligned teeth and bite discrepancies. Periodontics addresses the health of the gum tissue and supporting bone, which is particularly relevant in the context of implant treatment, where the health of surrounding tissues is fundamental to long-term implant success. Prosthetics covers fixed restorations such as crowns and bridges, as well as removable dentures.

Dental Team

The clinic was founded by Dr. Farid M. Damen, registered with the Regional Council of Dentistry under CRO 16267. The team also includes Dra. Jennifer and Dr. Felipe, as referenced in patient feedback about the practice. The multi-dentist structure allows the clinic to cover different specialties and manage a larger patient volume than a single-practitioner office could accommodate.
