Polieren Odontologia Avançada

Polieren Odontologia Avançada is a modern, full-service dental clinic located in the Victor Konder neighborhood of Blumenau, Santa Catarina, at Rua São Paulo, 1007. Founded in 2021 by Dra. Shana Cassia Gonçalves Marcon (CRO-SC 12180), an orthodontics specialist with over a decade of experience, the clinic brings together a team of dental specialists across multiple disciplines to deliver comprehensive oral health and aesthetic care under one roof. The clinic's slogan, Sorrisos transformados, mudam vidas (Transformed smiles change lives), reflects its commitment to treatments that improve not just teeth, but patients' confidence and quality of life.

Polieren Odontologia Avançada is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and uses high-quality materials across all treatments. The clinic accepts credit and debit cards and offers installment payment plans to make advanced dental care accessible to a broad range of patients throughout Blumenau.

Orthodontics and Invisible Aligners

Ortodontia (orthodontics) is the clinic's founding specialty. Dra. Shana Marcon's career spans hundreds of successful orthodontic cases, encompassing everything from routine alignment corrections to complex bite rehabilitation. The clinic offers treatment using metal brackets, aesthetic brackets (ceramic or composite, less visible than metal), and aparelho invisivel (invisible aligners) — clear, removable trays that progressively shift teeth into alignment without the visibility of traditional appliances.

Invisible aligners are designed using digital scanning and treatment-planning software, allowing patients to preview their expected results before beginning. They are removable for eating and brushing, virtually undetectable when worn, and generally more comfortable than fixed bracket systems, making them a popular choice for working adults and teenagers seeking discreet correction.

Dental Implants

Implantes dentários (dental implants) are a core offering at Polieren, planned and executed using advanced diagnostic imaging and surgical guidance technology. Implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to replace missing tooth roots, providing a permanent, stable foundation for crowns, bridges, or dentures. The clinic provides single-tooth implants, multiple-implant restorations, and complex full-arch rehabilitations, all supported by in-house specialist expertise.

Protocol Full-Arch Prosthetics

Prótese protocolo — also known as a fixed full-arch prosthesis or implant-supported complete arch — is offered at Polieren for patients who have lost all or most of their teeth. This procedure anchors a complete set of permanent, non-removable teeth to a small number of implants, providing a functional and aesthetically natural result that dramatically improves quality of life compared to removable dentures. As a fixed solution, protocol prostheses are cared for like natural teeth and eliminate the inconvenience and instability of removable alternatives.

Orthognathic Surgery

Cirurgia ortognática (orthognathic surgery) is available for patients whose jaw and bite discrepancies cannot be resolved by orthodontics alone. This procedure surgically repositions the upper jaw (maxilla), lower jaw (mandible), or both to correct skeletal misalignments that cause problems with chewing, speaking, breathing, and facial aesthetics. Orthognathic surgery is typically combined with orthodontic treatment in a coordinated, multi-phase plan, and requires close collaboration between the orthodontist and oral surgeon.

Aesthetic Dentistry

Polieren's aesthetic services include dental contact lenses (lentes de contato dental) and porcelain veneers for smile transformation, composite resin restorations for cosmetic and functional tooth repair, and professional teeth whitening (clareamento dental) — both in-office and take-home supervised whitening. These treatments are frequently combined as part of comprehensive smile design plans, addressing color, shape, proportion, and alignment in a single coordinated aesthetic approach.

Endodontics

Endodontia (root canal treatment) at Polieren uses specialized equipment to diagnose and treat infections and inflammation of the dental pulp. Root canal therapy removes infected tissue, disinfects the root canal system, and seals the tooth to prevent reinfection, preserving the natural tooth and avoiding extraction. The clinic's endodontic approach prioritizes both clinical precision and patient comfort.

Orofacial Harmonization

Harmonização orofacial (HOF) at Polieren addresses facial aesthetics through minimally invasive procedures performed within the scope of dental practice. These may include botulinum toxin applications for gummy smile correction and facial muscle relaxation, lip filling with hyaluronic acid, and biostimulators for skin quality improvement. This service allows patients to enhance overall facial harmony alongside their dental aesthetic treatments, achieving more complete transformations.

General Dentistry and Periodontics

Polieren's general dentistry services cover preventive care, cavity detection and treatment, professional cleaning, and periodontal maintenance (periodontia/manutenção). Maintaining healthy gums and supporting bone structures is fundamental to the long-term success of all restorative and implant treatments, and the clinic's preventive and periodontal protocols ensure patients' oral foundations are strong and stable. All diagnostic and specialist services are available in one location, simplifying care coordination for patients with complex or multi-specialty dental needs.
