Odontoclinic Maringa — Jardim Alvorada is a dental clinic located at Avenida Pedro Taques, 1455, Vila Morangueira, Maringa, Parana. The clinic is a franchised unit of Odontoclinic — the first dental franchise network in Brazil, founded in 1997 in Sao Paulo and the first dental brand to affiliate with ABF (Associacao Brasileira do Franchising) in 2002. The network currently operates 250+ clinics across Brazil, performing approximately 9,000 consultations per day nationally and serving patients across income classes B and C. Odontoclinic has won the Reclame Aqui Award for best customer service in the dental and medical clinic category in three consecutive years (2019, 2020, 2021), and is recognized as the only dental franchise with maximum reputation status on Reclame Aqui — reflecting a network-wide commitment to patient experience and complaint resolution. The Jardim Alvorada unit is led by Dra. Luana Martins Baptista (CRO-PR 24.413) as technical director. The clinic operates Monday through Friday from 08:00 to 19:00, offers free initial evaluations, and provides installment payment plans of up to 24 months. All dental specialties are available under one roof in the multidisciplinary model that defines the Odontoclinic franchise concept.
Dental Implants
Implantodontia (dental implants) is one of Odontoclinic's core service areas across the network, and at the Jardim Alvorada unit this service is available within the full multi-specialty framework of the clinic. Titanium implant fixtures replace missing teeth by integrating with the jawbone through osseointegration, providing a stable foundation for ceramic crowns or bridges that restore function and appearance equivalent to natural teeth. Implant-supported prosthetics preserve adjacent natural teeth and maintain jawbone volume at the implant site, advantages over conventional bridge or denture solutions. The installment payment plan of up to 24 months available at the clinic makes implant treatment — often one of the higher-cost dental procedures — more financially accessible for a broader range of patients.
Orthodontics
Ortodontia (orthodontics) at Odontoclinic Maringa Jardim Alvorada is offered across multiple appliance systems: conventional metallic brackets, self-ligating brackets (which reduce friction and may shorten treatment time compared to conventional systems), aesthetic ceramic brackets (which are visually discreet while maintaining the precision of fixed orthodontics), and transparent clear aligners for patients who prefer a near-invisible removable option. The range of orthodontic appliance systems enables the clinical team to match the treatment modality to the patient's case complexity, aesthetic preferences, and lifestyle requirements, rather than offering a single standardized approach. Orthodontic cases at the clinic can be coordinated with cosmetic dentistry or prosthetic treatment where comprehensive smile improvement is the patient's goal.
Aesthetic Dentistry
Estetica dental (aesthetic dentistry) encompasses porcelain veneers, dental contact lenses, composite resin facets, and teeth whitening. Porcelain veneers and dental contact lenses are ceramic facets bonded to the tooth surface to correct color, shape, and surface irregularities — with contact lenses being ultra-thin (0.2–0.5mm) options requiring minimal or no tooth preparation for maximum conservation of natural tooth structure. Composite resin facets provide a single-appointment direct alternative. Teeth whitening brightens the natural tooth shade through professional peroxide-based treatments in in-clinic or take-home formats. The Odontoclinic network's patient experience focus means that aesthetic treatment consultations are approached with a humanized, demystifying philosophy — helping patients understand their options and feel confident about their aesthetic investment.
Endodontics, Periodontics, and Extractions
Endodontia (root canal treatment) eliminates dental infection and preserves natural teeth affected by pulpal disease or periapical pathology. The procedure removes infected tissue from the root canal system, disinfects and seals the canals, and is followed by a ceramic crown restoration that protects the treated tooth and restores full function. Periodontia (periodontics) addresses gum disease — the most prevalent dental condition in the adult Brazilian population — through scaling, root planing, and maintenance programmes that stabilize the condition and protect the supporting structures of the teeth. Tooth extractions, including routine and surgical cases, complete the general surgical scope of the practice. All procedures are performed with full anesthesia management, and the network's patient experience training emphasizes pain-free and comfortable treatment delivery.
Prosthetics and General Dentistry
Protese dentaria (dental prosthetics) restores missing or severely damaged teeth through crowns, bridges, partial dentures, and complete dentures, with treatment planning tailored to the patient's clinical situation, functional requirements, and budget. General dentistry covers routine examinations, professional cleanings, fluoride application, restorations, and all preventive care services. The multidisciplinary model of Odontoclinic — where multiple dental specialists are accessible within a single franchised clinic — enables patients to complete comprehensive, multi-specialty treatment plans without referral to multiple separate practices, improving clinical coordination and patient convenience throughout complex treatment sequences.
