Foz do Iguaçu is a city of approximately 260,000 residents in western Paraná state, at the meeting point of Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay. The city is internationally known for the Iguazu Falls, one of the world's largest waterfall systems and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and it serves as a significant regional hub for cross-border commerce and services. The Centro district, where RPP Odontologia Avançada is located on Avenida Paraná, is the commercial heart of the city. Avenida Paraná is one of the main arterial roads of central Foz do Iguaçu, well served by public transport and accessible from all parts of the city as well as from the border crossings used by patients coming from Paraguay and Argentina.
Treatments and Specialties
The clinic's service offer spans surgical, restorative, cosmetic, and orthodontic dentistry, with a team structured to handle complex interdisciplinary cases internally.
- Dental implants: surgical implant placement and restoration for missing teeth
- Protocol prosthesis (Prótese Protocolo): full-arch implant-supported fixed prosthesis, also known as All-on-4 or All-on-6 style rehabilitation
- Invisalign: clear aligner orthodontic system for discreet teeth straightening
- Orthodontics: conventional alignment treatments
- Dental contact lenses: ultra-thin porcelain veneers with minimal tooth preparation
- Digital dental facets: digitally designed and fabricated veneer restorations
- Endodontics: root canal treatment and pulp therapy
- Minor oral surgery: surgical procedures in the oral cavity
- Nitrous oxide sedation: inhalation sedation for anxious patients
Dental implants at the clinic are overseen by Dr. Rodrigo Porlan (CRO/PR 21242), a specialist in implantology. Protocol prosthesis refers to a full-arch fixed prosthesis supported by a reduced number of strategically placed implants, a procedure commonly known as All-on-4 or All-on-6 depending on the implant configuration. This approach provides a fixed, non-removable solution for patients who have lost all or most of their teeth in one or both arches, restoring full function and aesthetics in a significantly shorter timeline than traditional implant-by-implant replacement.
Invisalign is offered alongside conventional orthodontics, covering both patients who prefer the discreet, removable aligner system and those who require or prefer fixed braces. Dr. Gabriel Alecrin (CRO/PR 33163) handles orthodontic cases. The iTero digital intraoral scanner, used in the clinic for Invisalign case planning and other digital workflows, takes precise three-dimensional impressions of the teeth and gums without the discomfort associated with traditional impression materials. It allows for more accurate treatment planning and digital communication with dental laboratories.
Endodontics is the specialty of Dra. Francieli Parize (CRO/PR 32135), who holds a Master's degree in the discipline. Root canal treatment performed by a specialist with postgraduate training provides a higher level of technical precision than general dentistry, particularly in cases with complex root anatomy or previous treatment failures.
Dental contact lenses and digital facets represent the clinic's cosmetic offerings. Contact lenses (lente de contato dental) are ultra-thin porcelain veneers applied with minimal or no tooth preparation, addressing colour and shape cosmetically while preserving the natural tooth structure. Digital facets are fabricated using digital design workflows, allowing for precise planning and consistent results. Nitrous oxide sedation is available for patients with dental anxiety, providing a light, reversible sedative effect that reduces apprehension during treatment without requiring full anaesthesia.
Dental Team
The clinic's six-dentist team covers a wide range of specialties. Dra. Francieli Parize (CRO/PR 32135) is the endodontic specialist with a Master's degree in the field. Dr. Rodrigo Porlan (CRO/PR 21242) specialises in dental implants. Dra. Giovanna Cheli Gonçalves (CRO/PR 37103), Dra. Reidicler Passoni (CRO/PR 19559), and Dra. Gabrielle dos Santos Gonzales (CRO/PR 36205) contribute to the broader clinical team. Dr. Gabriel Alecrin (CRO/PR 33163) covers orthodontics. This team composition allows the clinic to handle complex interdisciplinary cases without external referrals, coordinating between specialties internally.
