Nasser Facial & Dental

Treatments and Specialties

The clinic's name reflects a dual focus: dental specialist care on the periodontics and implantology side, and facial treatments under the Nasser Facial banner. This combination is consistent with the scope of practice available to specialist Brazilian dental surgeons, who are qualified to perform a range of procedures extending from the mouth into the perioral and facial region.

• Periodontics: diagnosis and treatment of gum and bone disease, including surgical and non-surgical interventions
• Implantology: dental implant placement and restoration for missing teeth
• Facial treatments: aesthetic and therapeutic procedures applied to the face
• General odontological services: supporting dental care within the specialist framework

Periodontics addresses the health of the tissues that support the teeth: the gums, the periodontal ligament, and the underlying jaw bone. Periodontal disease, commonly known as gum disease, ranges from mild gingivitis to advanced periodontitis, where bone loss around the roots of the teeth can lead to loosening and eventual loss of teeth. Treatment at the specialist level involves both non-surgical approaches, such as deep cleaning (scaling and root planing), and surgical interventions for cases where non-surgical treatment is insufficient to restore health. The periodontist also plays a critical role in the planning and execution of dental implant cases, since the health of the surrounding bone and gum tissue is fundamental to the success and longevity of an implant.

Implantology covers the surgical placement of titanium implant fixtures into the jaw bone to replace missing teeth. Once the implant has integrated with the bone through osseointegration, a crown, bridge, or prosthesis is attached to restore function and appearance. The combination of periodontics and implantology under one specialist is clinically advantageous: the same practitioner who manages the health of the patient's supporting tissues also plans and performs the implant surgery, reducing the coordination challenges that arise when these are handled by separate practitioners. For patients with a history of gum disease, this integrated approach is particularly important, as periodontal stability must be achieved and maintained before implant placement.

The facial treatment component of the clinic's offering reflects the growing integration of facial aesthetic procedures into specialist dental practice in Brazil. Brazilian dental regulations permit qualified dental surgeons to perform certain facial procedures, and the Nasser Facial & Dental name indicates that this is a deliberate part of the clinic's service identity rather than an ancillary addition.

Dental Professional

The clinic is associated with a dental surgeon, identified in professional directories as Bahjat Nasser, with specialist qualifications in Periodontia and Implantodontia and over 17 years of clinical experience. This level of experience in two complementary surgical specialties represents a solid foundation for the complex interdisciplinary cases that typically arrive at a specialist practice. The clinic was formally established in December 2010 under the legal entity Nasser Odontologia Avancada Ltda ME, with CNPJ 13.015.606/0001-42, verifiable in Brazilian business registries.

Location and Patient Access

The clinic is located at Rua Belarmino de Mendonça 604, Sala 04, Centro, Foz do Iguaçu, Paraná. The central location is well connected to the rest of the city by bus and readily accessible by taxi and ride-hailing services. For patients crossing from Paraguay via the Ponte da Amizade (Friendship Bridge) or from Argentina via the Tancredo Neves Bridge, the city centre is the most accessible destination in Foz do Iguaçu, minimising travel time after the border crossing. The clinic can be reached by phone (+55 45 99808-3333) and is active on Instagram and Facebook under the handle nasserfacialedental.

Patients in Foz do Iguaçu requiring specialist periodontal treatment, dental implants, or facial aesthetic procedures will find in Nasser Facial & Dental a clinic with over a decade of operation, a specialist practitioner, and a central location in Paraná's westernmost city. The dual specialisation in periodontics and implantology under one roof is a practical advantage for patients whose cases involve both disciplines.
