OralFoz is a dental clinic established in 2000 and located in the Jardim Tarobá neighbourhood of Foz do Iguaçu, Paraná, Brazil. Operating under the full name OralFoz Especialistas em Saúde Bucal (OralFoz Oral Health Specialists), the clinic brings together a team of credentialled specialists covering implantology, periodontics, orthodontics, endodontics, pediatric dentistry, and general practice under one roof. With over two decades of operation in Foz do Iguaçu, the clinic has served generations of local patients and established itself as a multi-specialty provider in the city's healthcare landscape.
Foz do Iguaçu sits at the westernmost tip of Paraná state, at the junction of the Brazilian, Argentine, and Paraguayan borders. The city is internationally recognised for the Iguazu Falls, one of the largest and most spectacular waterfall systems in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Beyond tourism, Foz do Iguaçu is a regional economic centre with cross-border commercial activity and a resident population of around 260,000. The Jardim Tarobá neighbourhood, where OralFoz is located, is a well-established residential and commercial district situated close to the city's central axis. The clinic's address on Avenida República Argentina 2886 places it on one of the main thoroughfares connecting the city's southern residential zones to the centre, with good accessibility by car and public transport.
Treatments and Specialties
OralFoz operates as a genuine multi-specialty clinic, with different practitioners holding distinct specialty qualifications. This structure means patients can receive complex interdisciplinary treatment plans within the same practice, coordinated across specialties by practitioners who work together regularly.
- Implantology: dental implant placement and bone integration management
- Fixed prosthetics on implants: crowns and bridges supported by implant fixtures
- Periodontics: diagnosis and treatment of gum and bone disease
- Orthodontics: braces and alignment treatments for all ages
- Endodontics: root canal treatment for infected or damaged teeth
- Pediatric dentistry: dental care for children and adolescents
- General dentistry: consultations, restorations, preventive care
- Dental prosthetics: removable dentures and partial prostheses
- Aesthetic dentistry: teeth whitening and facial harmonization
Implantology is one of the clinic's primary specialties, offered in combination with fixed prosthetics on implants. This means that both the surgical phase (placing the implant into the bone) and the restorative phase (fabricating and fitting the crown or bridge on top of the implant) are handled in-house. This integration simplifies the process for patients and allows for tighter coordination between the surgeon and the prosthetist. Periodontics, the management of gum and bone health, complements implantology: patients with a history of gum disease need periodontal stabilisation before implant placement, and the availability of a periodontist within the same clinic makes this coordination straightforward.
Orthodontics addresses tooth and jaw alignment, correcting crowding, spacing, and bite issues. The clinic offers these services for both children and adults, recognising that orthodontic demand is no longer confined to younger patients. Endodontics, or root canal therapy, preserves teeth that have experienced pulp infection or damage, allowing the natural tooth to remain functional rather than requiring extraction. Pediatric dentistry at OralFoz provides age-specific care for children, with an emphasis on preventive treatment and creating positive early experiences with dental care. Dental prosthetics covers removable solutions, including full and partial dentures, for patients who have lost multiple teeth and are not candidates for implant-supported restorations.
Dental Team
The clinic's specialist team includes four registered practitioners. Dr. Klayton J. Firmiano (CRO/PR 12862) covers implantology and periodontics, managing both the surgical aspects of implant treatment and the diagnosis and therapy of gum and bone conditions. Dr. Giovanni Moro (CRO/PR 13651) is the orthodontic specialist, responsible for alignment treatments. Dra. Juliana Correia de Melo (CRO/AC 1267) handles pediatric dentistry and general practice, providing care for younger patients alongside routine adult consultations. Dra. Eyla Rodrigues de Aguiar (CRO 01696/AP) covers general dentistry and endodontics, performing restorations and root canal treatments. The presence of practitioners registered across different state dental councils reflects the mobility common in the Brazilian dental profession and does not affect the validity of clinical practice in Paraná.
