Luxedent Odontóloga by Dra. Maribel Ballesteros

Periodontal laser therapy is a core offering at Luxedent, using laser technology to treat gum disease, reduce inflammation, and support gum health without the discomfort of traditional surgical techniques. Dental implants cover single-tooth replacements through to multi-unit restorations, performed by a formally trained implantologist with more than a decade of surgical experience. Smile design incorporates gum contouring (gingivectomy), teeth whitening, and composite edge correction into a coordinated aesthetic plan tailored to each patient's facial structure. Invisible aligners using the Smartee system provide a cost-effective alternative to Invisalign for patients seeking orthodontic correction without metal brackets. Orofacial harmonization extends the clinic's aesthetic scope beyond dentistry, with Botox and bichectomy procedures available for patients seeking full facial rejuvenation alongside their dental treatment. Preventive dentistry and deep cleaning round out the practice's comprehensive offering.

Dra. Maribel Dayanna Ballesteros Gomez holds a degree in General Dentistry and a postgraduate Specialty in Periodontics and Oral Implantology from the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Bogota. She completed an additional specialization in Orofacial Harmonization at Universidad Facop, Brazil. She brings more than 10 years of specialist clinical experience to the practice and maintains active membership in the Sociedad Colombiana de Periodoncia e Implantologia Oral. She regularly attends national and international professional congresses to remain current with advances in periodontics, implantology, and aesthetic dentistry.

The Luxedent clinic is equipped with dental laser technology for periodontal procedures, supporting minimally invasive treatment protocols that reduce patient discomfort and accelerate healing. Smartee invisible aligner systems are used for orthodontic cases, providing digital-guided tooth movement. The practice operates as a private clinic, meaning sterilization and hygiene standards are maintained to private care levels throughout.

Luxedent has experience serving patients traveling specifically for dental treatment, including visitors from Argentina and other South American countries. Dra. Ballesteros's practice is positioned for dental tourists seeking specialist-level periodontics and implant care combined with aesthetic treatments at a fraction of North American or European prices. Bogota's El Dorado International Airport (BOG) connects the city directly to Miami, New York, Toronto, Madrid, Lima, and other major hubs, making it a practical destination for international patients planning a dental trip of five to seven days. The clinic operates on a private-only basis, meaning appointment scheduling is flexible and not subject to insurance queues.

Luxedent is located at Carrera 15 No. 92-29, Bogota, Colombia, in the city's northern commercial corridor, an area well served by taxis, ride-sharing services, and public transport. The neighborhood offers proximity to hotels, restaurants, and services suited to visiting patients. El Dorado International Airport is approximately 25 to 35 minutes away depending on traffic conditions.
