Dr. Rowan truly deserves every bit of a 5-star rating. From the moment I walked into the office, I felt welcomed and at ease. He has an incredible way of explaining everything clearly, making sure I understood the procedure and felt comfortable every step of the way. I came in with a chipped tooth that had been bothering me, and Dr. Rowan handled it with such precision and care that it looks…

s completely natural now—you can’t even tell there was ever any damage. His attention to detail and commitment to perfection really stood out. What impressed me most was how thorough he was, not just focusing on the immediate issue but also checking on my overall dental health and offering helpful advice for long-term care. He’s patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about his patients’ well-being. If you’re looking for a dentist who is skilled, trustworthy, and compassionate, I highly recommend Dr. Rowan. I couldn’t be happier with my experience!
I was able to book my appt. with ease from California. Dr. Rowan was quick to reply, clear on payment est. and worked with the timeline I had in mind. Dr. Rowan confirmed my appt., got straight to work on my night guard and whitening trays, great chairside manner. Went in on Monday and all three trays were ready in three days. Dr. Rowan is the only dentist I will use going forward.

Dr Rowan is skilled at his profession, fluent in English, thorough, and incredibly kind.

Hello, Dr. Rowan treated me even though he was officially off that morning because I had just returned from the rainforest and had very limited time to get treatment. I truly appreciated his flexibility and dedication. He was able to reattach my broken veneer, and he worked very carefully and professionally. I felt I was in very good hands throughout the entire procedure. I can highly recommend…

end Dr. Rowan and would gladly come back anytime. My professional dental cleaning was also due, and I was able to have it done shortly after the treatment, which was very convenient. As I mentioned, I am very satisfied. Many thanks as well to the entire team!

After a close friend had a bad experience at another clinic, I took my time researching before choosing Dr. Rowan in Rio—and I’m so glad I did. From the moment I arrived, he was warm, attentive, and incredibly clear, walking me through every step, offering thoughtful options, and checking in throughout the procedures. The weighted blanket and TV above the chair made longer appointments…

surprisingly comfortable. I had several whitening sessions (from A4 to BL4), followed by composite bonding two weeks later, and the results are exceptional. I specifically wanted a natural look—not perfect symmetry—and Dr. Rowan delivered exactly what I hoped for. I’ve never felt more confident about my smile. If you’re considering cosmetic dental work in Rio, Dr. Rowan is an outstanding choice—and he speaks fluent English.

Cyrus, reading your words truly means a lot to me. I know how unsettling it can be to move forward after someone close to you has had a negative experience elsewhere, so the fact that you took the time to research carefully and ultimately chose to trust me with your smile is something I genuinely value. From the very beginning, my goal was for you to feel safe, informed, and in control of every step. Cosmetic dentistry is not just about teeth. It is about confidence, identity, and how you feel when you look in the mirror. That is why I always take the time to explain options clearly, discuss possibilities, and make sure we are aligned before moving forward. I’m especially happy to hear that you felt comfortable during the longer appointments. Small details like the weighted blanket and the TV are intentional, because clinical excellence and patient comfort should always go hand in hand. Your dental whitening process and then refining everything with composite bonding was a carefully planned process, and what made it truly special was your clarity about wanting a natural result rather than something overly symmetrical or artificial. Preserving individuality while enhancing beauty is exactly the balance I strive for, and I’m so pleased that you see that reflected in your smile. Thank you for your trust, your kindness, and for sharing your experience so openly. Seeing you confident and happy with your smile is the most rewarding part of what I do.
I could not be happier, I came all the way from Florida USA to make a treatment with Dr. Rowan. He is great also worked on my schedule and in 4 days solved my issues. I highly recomendo him!
