Sandra Milena Rivera López, Implantologe/-in

With a treatment pathway that starts from an initial evaluation with radiographs to check bone quantity and quality, Sandra Milena Rivera López guides patients through dental implant placement and the months-long osteointegration phase before the final crown. At this clinic, she focuses on Dental Implants and oral rehabilitation, serving patients in Bogotá and Manizales. The clinic’s implant process is described as staged—evaluation, implant placement, osteointegration lasting 3 to 6 months, and then placement of the crown—so patients know what to expect from first visit to restoration. Implant care is also presented as an active part of success, including recommendations such as avoiding tobacco to support healing and attending follow-up visits.

Clinical focus and techniques

At this clinic, dental implant treatment is approached as a structured, step-by-step plan designed around the patient’s bone conditions and long-term function.

• Dental implant placement: implanting a titanium implant into the jawbone under local anesthesia, described as minimally invasive.
• Osteointegration-based healing: planning for osteointegration that can last between 3 and 6 months before restoration.
• Custom crown placement: once the implant has integrated, placing the personalized dental crown to restore appearance and function.
• Smile design support: the clinic lists “smile design” as part of its implant-related services and diagnostics.
