I took advantage of my stay in Ipanema to go to Dentist Rowan's office as planned. After analyzing the situation of my crown remotely (it was coming off), he offered me an appointment very quickly and also indicated the price for the treatment, which is a good point. The care was fast, efficient and he is very professional. Inside his office, I was surprised to see a TV screen hanging from the…

I travelled all the way from the UK to get dental veneers done with Dr. Rowan and Dr. Gabriel, and I can honestly say — amazing and excellent are understatements! From start to finish, the experience was flawless. Both doctors are not only highly professional, but clearly masters of their craft. The final result?

, perfectly aligned, and confidence-boosting in every way. But what truly stood out to me was the process leading up to the procedure. Dr. Rowan, who is fluent in English, took the time to explain everything in clear, simple terms. He laid out all my options with total honesty and incredible patience — no pressure, just genuine care. Despite my tight travel schedule, they went above and beyond to accommodate everything in a single day, and still executed the procedure flawlessly. What also impressed me was the very fair and competitive pricing. It was clear that Dr. Rowan and Dr. Gabriel weren’t driven by profit — their genuine goal was to give me the perfect smile, and that passion showed in every detail. The entire clinic team was also warm, welcoming, and professional — a true reflection of the doctors they work with. I can't thank Dr. Rowan, Dr. Gabriel, and the whole team enough for this life-changing experience. If you're considering dental veneers (or any dental work), I would highly, highly recommend this amazing team. Thank you for everything!

I recently visited Dr Rowan to have composite bonding and was very impressed with his service and quality of work. I really appreciated how he took the time to complete the procedure over three visits, giving me the space to make decisions without feeling rushed. I wanted a smile that looked natural and I am very pleased with the result. I would definitely recommend Dr Rowan and his team.

I came to Dr. Rowan with many concerns, after not going to the dentist for many years due to anxiety about dentists. Dr. Rowan, with patience, gentleness and understanding, helped me overcome my anxieties. From a simple treatment of teeth cleaning and treatment of 2 cavities I had, I completed a process of replacing old fillings with new ones, teeth whitening and I must say that my anxieties are…

I decided to do an in-office whitening session, and the results were amazing—my teeth were noticeably whiter with absolutely no sensitivity afterward. The cleaning was also top-notch; he assessed my needs and ensured the procedure was comfortable and thorough. It’s clear he prioritizes patient care and comfort above all.
