Dentistry in Barcelona
What Is Dentistry?
We offer a variety of treatments designed to enhance your smile. For example, from teeth whitening, dental veneers, inlays, metal-free crowns or bridges, to invisible orthodontics, etc. Implant-supported restorative treatments also require a design and functionality that restore the natural appearance of the lost teeth.
What problems does it solve?
TMJ & Bruxism
It treats conditions affecting the joint that connects the jaw to the skull and/or unconscious teeth grinding.
Root Canal Treatment
The specialty that treats diseases affecting the tooth nerve. Commonly known as “numbing the nerve.”
Pediatric Dentistry
Our young people's oral health—in good hands and at the right time.
Periodontics
A specialty focused on treating diseases of the gums and the alveolar bone, which holds the teeth in the jaws.
Dental Prostheses
A field of dentistry focused on replacing missing teeth. There is a wide variety of dental prostheses, depending on their materials, the fabrication technique, whether they are fixed or removable, etc.
Treatment Process
The process for any dental treatment at Clínica Birbe begins with an initial visit: medical history, oral examination, photographs, and, when necessary, X-rays or an intraoral scan. We’ll share the diagnosis, treatment options, and a fixed-price estimate with you. Before beginning complex treatments, we first ensure that your gums are healthy and that you have no cavities. Next, the sessions for the chosen treatment are scheduled, with a clear timeline and planned follow-up appointments. The team coordinates all specialties when a case requires a multidisciplinary approach, avoiding external referrals and streamlining your experience.
Recovery time
Most dental treatments do not require a recovery period: fillings, cleanings, teeth whitening, dentures, and orthodontics. Root canal treatments and simple tooth extractions may cause mild discomfort for 24–72 hours, which can be managed with pain relievers. Periodontal or implant surgeries require specific recovery instructions, which are provided in writing for each case. The transition to the workforce is usually immediate. We recommend following the hygiene guidelines after each treatment, and if you experience unexpected pain, please contact us directly.
Expected Results
The results of properly administered dental care are clear: restored teeth, healthy gums, a functional bite, an attractive smile, and the prevention of more serious problems. Most treatments yield stable, long-term results when patients attend regular follow-up appointments. Proper dental care is the foundation for future cosmetic and implant treatments. Satisfaction isn’t measured solely by appearance: a healthy, pain-free, and functional mouth is one of the most worthwhile investments in your daily well-being.
Duration of treatment
The duration varies greatly depending on the treatment. A filling takes 30–45 minutes to complete. A root canal treatment, in 1–2 sessions lasting 60–90 minutes. A crown, in 2–3 visits over the course of 2–3 weeks. A complex rehabilitation plan can last from 6 to 12 months. Professional checkups and cleanings are scheduled every 6–12 months, depending on individual risk. We always provide you with a realistic timeline so you can organize your time and budget.
Frequently Asked Questions About Orthodontics
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
The duration ranges from 6 to 18 months, depending on the complexity of the case. During the initial consultation, the duration of treatment is estimated.
Can orthodontic treatment be combined with orthognathic surgery?
Yes, in cases of severe malocclusions, orthodontics is combined with surgery. The Surgery First protocol reduces the total treatment time.
At what age should a child have their first orthodontic visit?
An initial orthodontic evaluation is recommended between the ages of 6 and 7 to detect mandibular growth problems early on.
What treatments are included in general dentistry?
Fillings, root canal treatments, prosthetics, periodontics, pediatric dentistry, bruxism treatment, and preventive checkups. It is the foundation upon which the most complex treatments are built. At Clínica Birbe in Barcelona, we combine general dentistry with maxillofacial surgery, orthodontics, and implantology to provide comprehensive care through a single team.
How often should I go for a checkup?
We recommend a professional checkup and cleaning every 6–12 months, depending on individual risk factors (tooth decay, periodontitis, orthodontic treatment, bruxism). In certain situations—such as patients with implants, smokers, those with diabetes, or pregnant women—closer monitoring is recommended. Regular checkups allow problems to be detected early on and help prevent the need for more extensive treatment.
Is dental treatment always painful?
No. Modern dentistry prioritizes minimally invasive procedures and patient comfort: effective local anesthesia, adhesive techniques, conscious sedation when appropriate, and a personalized approach. Most treatments are quick and painless. If you have dental anxiety, please let us know during your first visit: we’ll tailor your treatment plan to make your experience as stress-free as possible.
What are the benefits of a multidisciplinary clinic in Barcelona?
Your treatment plan is designed with all the specialists you need working under one roof: maxillofacial surgeons, implantologists, orthodontists, periodontists, and endodontists. This reduces communication errors, speeds up processing times, and makes it possible to resolve complex cases without having to refer them to outside parties. It’s the most efficient and safest way to take care of your oral health.
Dr. Joan Birbe: General Dentistry with Maxillofacial Support from ABOMS
General dentistry is not a standalone treatment; it is the foundation upon which all other treatments are built. At Clínica Birbe, treatment is provided by a team led by an ABOMS-certified maxillofacial surgeon, which allows for the early detection of more complex problems—such as occlusal, joint, or surgical issues—and their referral without disrupting the overall treatment plan.
