Root canal specialists spend their careers keeping natural teeth alive. That changes how a smile makeover is planned: less drilling, healthier teeth under the porcelain, and results that read as yours.
Some smiles need new surfaces. Some need a tooth replaced. Dr. Laura tells you which, and why, before you book a flight.
Custom IPS e.max veneers designed digitally and bonded in two appointments, four days apart.
When a tooth can't be saved, we replace it with a titanium implant and a natural-looking crown, matched to your veneers.
IPS e.max is made by Ivoclar and used in clinics in the US and Canada. In Bogotá the specialist's time and the lab cost much less. The materials stay the same.
US figures are typical published ranges (veneers about $925–$2,500 per tooth; single implant with crown about $3,000–$5,000) and vary by city. Bogotá prices are Dr. Salazar's starting prices.

The clinic is in Chicó, five minutes from Parque 93, one of the city's safest and most walkable neighborhoods. Restaurants, cafés and hotels are on the same streets.
Your driver meets you at El Dorado airport (about 45–60 minutes to Chicó) and takes you to your hotel. Rest; Bogotá sits at 2,600 m.
X-rays, health check of every tooth, 3D scan and your smile design. Teeth are prepared conservatively and temporaries placed.
Your veneers are crafted. Walk Parque 93, Usaquén's Sunday market, or ride up to Monserrate.
Final try-in, shade check in natural light, and bonding. Aftercare instructions and photos, then back to the airport.
WhatsApp check-ins at one week and one month, and coordination with your local dentist if anything needs a look.
“Naturalness, always. I'm an endodontist; I preserve the tooth's structure.”
Dr. Salazar earned her dental degree and her specialty in endodontics at the Colegio Odontológico Colombiano, and is registered with Colombia's national health professional registry (RETHUS). She has further training in aesthetic dentistry and facial harmonization, and photographs every case with a clinical macro setup, so you see exactly what was done.

A full set of 20 IPS e.max porcelain veneers starts at $4,900 with Dr. Salazar, including airport transfers and transport to appointments. Partial cases and resin or ceromer options cost less. You get an exact quote after a free photo review.
Five days for most veneer cases: two appointments, four days apart. Implants usually need two trips, because the bone needs time to heal around the implant before the final crown goes on.
Not if they're planned well. Dr. Salazar matches shape and shade to your face and keeps natural translucency, rather than using one bright white for everyone.
As little as your case allows. Some patients only need the edges reshaped. Being an endodontist, Dr. Salazar's priority is keeping your natural tooth healthy under the porcelain.
If a tooth can be saved with a root canal and a crown, that is usually the better long-term option. When it can't, an implant prevents bone loss and shifting teeth. You'll get a clear recommendation after your X-rays.
The clinic is in Chicó, near Parque 93, an upscale business and residential area. Your driver handles airport and clinic transfers, and the coordinator is available on WhatsApp throughout your stay.
Your veneers carry a 1-year warranty. We check in by WhatsApp and coordinate with your local dentist if you need an adjustment.
One natural smile photo and one with your teeth together is enough for a first opinion and a quote in USD.
