Dr. Mariana Mota

Dr. Mariana Mota is a private dental clinic in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The practice runs two units in the Leblon and Tijuca neighborhoods. It focuses on restorative and aesthetic dental care under a single-doctor model.

Accreditations and Professional Standing

The clinic is licensed under registration CRORJ 37174. Dr. Mariana Mota has practiced dentistry since 2012, bringing over 13 years of clinical experience. She specializes in Restorative Dentistry, focusing on complex aesthetic cases through conservative methods.

Aesthetic and Restorative Dentistry

The practice specializes in smile transformations that preserve natural tooth structure. Dr. Mota follows a minimally invasive philosophy. She adds material only where needed to achieve symmetry, so there's no unnecessary grinding or enamel reduction.

Specialized procedures at the clinic include:

• Resin Veneers – Also called resin lenses, used for color correction and closing gaps between teeth.
• Dental Bonding – Composite resin repairs conoid-shaped teeth or non-carious cervical lesions.
• Gingivectomy – Gum reshaping, often combined with whitening for a complete smile upgrade.
• Teeth Whitening – Professional brightening treatments integrated into restorative plans.

A new smile test during the first consultation lets patients preview proposed changes before final restorations. Case monitoring shows resin restorations here keep their color and shine for over 3 years without cracks or fractures.

Advanced Prophylaxis Technology

For preventive care and cleaning, the clinic uses the GBT Machine by EMS Dental. This system follows the Guided Biofilm Therapy protocol to remove plaque and calculus with high precision. A blue dye highlights areas that need treatment.

The clinic uses Airflow technology for dental prophylaxis, which offers several benefits:

• Erythritol particles for gentle but effective cleaning
• Reduced vibration and adjustable power for greater comfort
• Integrated warm water systems to prevent sensitivity

This technology makes routine cleanings easier for patients with sensitive teeth.

Services for International Patients

The practice supports international visitors seeking dental care in Rio de Janeiro. Clinical information and treatment explanations are available in English. Dr. Mota offers preliminary guidance on how many teeth need treatment, which helps with travel planning.

Both the Leblon and Tijuca branches sit in accessible areas with good logistics for travelers. The clinic emphasizes patient well-being and a comfortable treatment experience. Follow-up care includes long-term monitoring and polishing to maintain aesthetic results.
