Frequently Asked Questions

We answer before
you ask.

Absolutely. Dr. Támara is fully fluent in English and regularly treats patients from the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and beyond. All communication — from your first message to post-treatment follow-up — can be conducted entirely in English.

It's a 20–30 minute video call with Dr. Támara. Before the call, we ask you to send smile photos and any recent X-rays. During the call, we review your case, explain your best treatment options, and follow up with a detailed quote in USD. Free. No obligation.

All-on-4 typically requires two trips to Bogotá. The first trip is 10 to 14 days: implants are placed and a provisional prosthesis is fitted. The second trip — approximately 6 months later, once implants have fully osseointegrated — is 5–7 days for the final crowns.

We work exclusively with world-class brands: Straumann for implants (the same brand used in the best clinics in the US and Europe), 3M for adhesive and restorative materials, and Ivoclar for ceramics and porcelain veneers, among other high-quality materials. Same standards — regardless of where you’re from.

Yes. We accept cash (USD, COP, or any other currency — please confirm in advance), international bank transfers, and credit cards. All prices for international patients are quoted in US dollars (USD) and are not subject to exchange rate fluctuations. Contact us for specifics on your case.

In healthcare, no ethical professional can guarantee specific outcomes — biology is not 100% predictable. What we do guarantee is complete honesty about what’s possible in your specific case, world-class materials, and close follow-up throughout. If something doesn’t go as expected, we address it.

All-on-4 · Dental Tourism
Your All-on-4 journey step by step,
from the first email
to the final visit.
8 min read

What exactly is All-on-4?

It's a technique that replaces all teeth in one jaw using just 4 implants. Instead of placing one implant per missing tooth, we create 4 strategic anchor points and attach a complete prosthesis to them. The result: a fully functional, natural-looking smile — fixed, not removable.

Step by step: how the process works

  • First contact: you reach out by WhatsApp or email. We ask for smile photos and recent X-rays.
  • Free virtual consultation: 20–30 min video call with Dr. Támara. We review your case and explain what's possible.
  • Detailed quote: you receive a full treatment plan in USD. No hidden costs.
  • First trip (10–14 days): you arrive in Bogotá, we place the implants and a provisional prosthesis. You leave with teeth.
  • Healing period (~6 months): implants fuse to the bone. You're at home — we follow up on WhatsApp.
  • Second trip (5–7 days): final crowns are placed. Your permanent new smile.

Does it hurt? Is it safe?

Surgery is performed under local anesthesia. Most patients describe recovery as manageable — similar to an extraction. We use Straumann implants, the same brand used in the best clinics in Europe and the US. Safety is non-negotiable.

Cost vs. doing it in the US

In the US, All-on-4 can cost between $25,000 and $35,000 per arch. At Smile Atelier: from $8,800. Including two trips, most patients save over 60% — flights and hotel included.

Veneers · Education
Porcelain vs. composite:
how to choose.
5 min read

First, the basics: what is a veneer?

A veneer is a thin shell that covers the front surface of your tooth. It changes color, shape, size, or visual alignment — without orthodontics or invasive procedures. It's the go-to treatment for anyone who wants a predictable, fast smile transformation.

When to choose porcelain

  • You want a long-lasting result (10–15 years with good care)
  • You're looking for the most natural, translucent finish possible
  • Your case involves deep stains, worn teeth, or irregular shapes
  • You want a long-term investment you won't think about for years

Porcelain doesn't stain, resists coffee and wine, and looks nearly identical to natural enamel. It's the choice of patients who want to stop worrying about their smile.

When to choose composite

  • You want to improve your smile without a large investment
  • Your case is mild: small gaps, minor irregularities
  • You prefer a reversible or temporary option
  • You're young and your smile may still change

Composite is applied directly to the tooth, usually in a single appointment. It's effective, more affordable, and when done well — looks excellent.

The honest truth

There is no abstractly "better" option. There's the right option for your case, your budget, and your lifestyle. That's why we always start with a consultation — to understand what you need, not what works for everyone.

Bogotá · Dental Tourism
Bogotá as a dental destination:
what you need to know.
6 min read

Why Bogotá?

Bogotá isn't just Colombia's capital. It's a city of 8 million people with world-class medical infrastructure, internationally trained professionals, and a quality of life that surprises first-time visitors. And the prices — in dentistry, aesthetic medicine, and nearly everything — are a fraction of what you'd pay in the US, Canada, or Europe.

Is it safe to visit?

Yes. Bogotá has changed dramatically in recent years. Areas like Santa Bárbara (where our clinic is located), Usaquén, El Chicó, and La Cabrera are equivalent to any premium neighborhood in a modern Latin American city. Uber works perfectly, restaurants cover every level, and boutique hotels are exceptional.

How do I organize the trip?

  • Flights: direct from Miami (~3h), New York (~5h), Fort Lauderdale, Houston, Atlanta and more.
  • Hotel: we recommend options in Santa Bárbara or Chicó — close to the clinic, safe, and excellent value.
  • Free time: between appointments you'll have time to explore. La Candelaria, Parque de la 93, the flower markets. Many patients extend their trip to visit Cartagena, the Coffee Region, or Medellín.

What if I need follow-up after I return home?

We coordinate everything via WhatsApp. If something requires in-person attention in your city, we'll connect you with a trusted colleague. You're not on your own once you cross the airport.

The first step is a conversation

You don't need to decide anything today. Write to us, tell us what you need, and we'll honestly tell you whether coming to Bogotá makes sense for you — or if your case is better handled closer to home.
