Patient Experience

Expect bilingual coordination in Spanish and English, clear cost and timeline summaries, and written aftercare. Many aesthetic and restorative plans can be completed in several days. Implant cases are typically two-stage: placement, healing, and final teeth. Sending recent X-rays or CT scans before you fly helps confirm options and chair time at your first visit.

Getting There

Fly into José María Córdova International Airport, MDE. The Laureles–Estadio clinic area is typically about 45–70 minutes by authorized airport taxi, Uber, or DiDi, depending on traffic.

If you are already in Medellín, rideshare is the fastest door-to-door option from El Poblado, Laureles, or Laureles–Estadio hotel zones. Your advisor will share the exact GPS pin.

How to Book

Your Dental Departures advisor can prepare a quick quote, confirm availability, and sequence appointments around your flights free of charge.

FAQs

1. What warranties or guarantees are available?

Guarantees are usually procedure-specific and may cover lab-made restorations, such as crowns, veneers, and bridges, and implant components for a defined period. Coverage typically requires following written aftercare, such as wearing your night guard if prescribed, keeping maintenance visits, and avoiding behaviors listed as exclusions, such as smoking or bruxism without a guard. Before treatment, Dental Departures can secure the clinic’s current written warranty for your exact plan so you know the duration, coverage, exclusions, and how repairs or replacements are handled.

2. Where is the clinic and how do I reach it?

Oralimagen is in the Laureles–Estadio area of Medellín, a central district with hotels, cafés, and shopping. From MDE Airport, take an authorized airport taxi, Uber, or DiDi. Typical travel time is about 45–70 minutes depending on traffic and time of day. If you are staying in El Poblado or Laureles, rideshare or taxi is usually the easiest door-to-door option. After booking, Dental Departures can share the GPS pin and simple wayfinding notes.

3. Which payment methods are accepted?

Clinics serving international patients commonly accept cash and major credit or debit cards. Some larger plans may allow bank transfers. Because accepted card brands, processor fees, and cash-discount policies can change, your Dental Departures advisor can confirm exact accepted methods for your dates and note any deposit needed to reserve lab or surgical time.

4. What languages are spoken at the clinic?

You can expect service in Spanish and English across reception and chairside. Tell Dental Departures your preference when booking so they can pair you with an English-speaking dentist or assistant and provide bilingual consent and aftercare documents.

5. How long do dental implants or full-arch cases take?

Most implant plans are two-stage. Stage 1, implant placement and any grafting or sinus lift, typically fits into 3–7 days with a brief check-in. Stage 2, the abutment and final bridge or crown, occurs after healing, also called osseointegration. If grafting is required, timelines extend. Dental Departures can map visits to your travel window and discuss temporary or provisional teeth during healing.

6. Can I get same-day diagnostics and a plan?

Often, yes. With notice, the team can arrange X-rays, CT imaging, and a consultation on the same day so you can review options, sequencing, and a quote in one visit. Sharing recent images and dental history ahead of time shortens the appointment and improves planning accuracy.

7. Do you offer braces for adults and teens?

Yes, metal and clear braces, including Damon® systems, are available. Dental Departures can help outline records, such as photos and scans, adjustment visit timing that fits your trips, and retainers to hold results once treatment is complete.
