Instituto Implante Vida is a multidisciplinary dental institute in Santos, Sao Paulo, founded on the concept of a true "All In One" clinical facility — a single address where patients can access the full spectrum of dental and aesthetic services without referrals to external specialists. Located at Rua Tolentino Filgueiras 49, the institute is registered with CRO/SP under number 8856 and operates under the technical direction of Dr. Jose Marcio B. L. do Amaral (CRO 35078), a dental surgeon with over 30 years of experience, specialist in restorative dentistry and implantology, and an active professor.
The institute's infrastructure sets it apart from typical dental practices. It houses an in-house radiological center capable of panoramic and tomographic (CBCT) exams — eliminating the need for external imaging referrals and enabling faster, more accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. The on-site iLab digital prosthetics laboratory supports the clinic's digital dentistry workflow, producing prosthetic restorations with precision and speed. A strong investment in digital dentistry and computer-guided surgery runs throughout the institute's implantology and prosthetic services, led by Dr. Bruno Braganca Rodrigues Matias, an implantology specialist with 12 years at the institute who is completing a master's degree in digital odontology.
Implantology is the institute's signature specialty. The clinical team includes multiple implant specialists: Dr. Jose Marcio, Dr. Bruno Matias, and Dr. Fabio De Nardo Moura — a practitioner with 28 years of experience and 14 years focused on implantology, who also specializes in facial harmonization and oral surgery including wisdom tooth extractions. Dra. Marcia da Silva Ledo, an implantology specialist since 2016 who joined the institute in 2007, rounds out the implant team with expertise in restorations and patient education. Digital guided surgery protocols allow for precise implant placement with reduced surgical trauma and predictable outcomes.
Prosthodontics is led by Dra. Priscila Rizzi, a prosthetics specialist with 17 years of clinical experience and a master's degree in temporomandibular dysfunction and orofacial pain — areas that intersect significantly with prosthetic treatment planning. Fixed and removable prosthetic solutions, including crowns, bridges, and full dentures, are produced with the support of the in-house digital laboratory.
Facial harmonization procedures — including botulinum toxin injections, hyaluronic acid lip fillers, bichectomy, rhinomodeling, and chin liposuction — are performed within the scope established by the Brazilian Federal Council of Dentistry, extending the institute's aesthetic offering beyond the oral cavity. Periodontics is covered by Dra. Vania Loureiro, a periodontology specialist who completed a residency at the AC Camargo Cancer Center with additional expertise in oncological dentistry — a rare and valuable credential for managing dental care in oncology patients.
Sports dentistry and orthodontics are provided by Dr. Caio Capitani, who also specializes in temporomandibular dysfunction and orofacial pain. Endodontics, general dentistry, teeth whitening, and aesthetic dentistry including porcelain veneers and dental contact lenses complete the comprehensive service menu. The institute operates Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to noon and 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM. With a team of eleven dental professionals, in-house imaging and laboratory capabilities, and a genuinely integrated multidisciplinary model, Instituto Implante Vida offers Santos patients a level of clinical depth and infrastructure rarely found outside large metropolitan dental centers.
