Vélez y Lozano, dental office

Vélez&Lozano is a medical pioneer in the Region of Murcia. We are certified in Incognito® the latest generation of lingual orthodontics that allows us to offer our patients the quickest and best solution possible while being incredibly aesthetically pleasing. The braces are placed on the inside of your teeth instead of the outside; you get the same effectiveness and speed of traditional braces, while having virtually no visible trace of orthodontic work being done.

Thanks to this technology, our patients have at their disposal an aesthetically pleasing yet medically affective treatment that is suitable for all ages. This solution is also personally tailored and customized for each patient so that it resolves virtually any misalignment.

These days it is easier than ever to get that ´perfect bite.´ Proper orthodontic work ensures that you not only enjoy a vibrant and beautiful smile for years to come, but it also aides in the eating process, perfectly aligns your teeth and contributes to your overall dental health.

An important part of our philosophy at Vélez&Lozano is to offer our patients the most minimally invasive dentistry techniques, and in the case of prosthetics, the least revealing. This has lead us to work with prosthetic techniques in which traditional metal 'crowns' and 'bridges' are replaced by 100% ceramic restorations.

We combine this philosophy with the highest quality aesthetic design offered by Empress® ceramics. Using this combination we eliminate the presence of metal in the mouth, avoiding possible allergic reactions or cross-reactions to the prostheses that could cause dark spots.

In addition to this solution, in cases where maximum aesthetics and a stronger bite (chewing) is required, such as in the case of young patients who have lost a tooth or teeth, we have gone through specialized training to use Zirconio and Prettaux. This is a precious white metal that provides results that are extremely aesthetically pleasing, and replace the use of older prostheses.

Patients with out-dated complete dentures, often suffer from misalignment problems due to alveolar bone resorption and gums. These problems require them to use ´glues´ or adhesives in order to hold dentures to their jaws and live a normal life.

At Vélez&Lozano we use an international protocol called All-On-Four. This dental rehabilitation technique allows us to give you fixed dentures by placing only four dental implants into your jaw.

Using this innovative technique, the traditional 'put it on and take it off' set of dentures can be replaced in a single day, leaving you with a comfortable set of fixed dentures. The All-On-Four rehabilitation implant provides a higher quality of life for you, preventing discomfort and ulcers caused by outdated and ill-fitting dentures.

Dentures are important for those patients who have lost all or some of their teeth. Dentures give these patients the opportunity to chew normally and feel confident and normal in social situations.

At Vélez&Lozano we work with the most innovative and technologically advanced denture laboratories, allowing us to use the most flexible materials –resulting in maximum adaptation to the patient's mouth. This process helps us obtain optimal results in those cases in which patients, due to lack of bone, aren't able to restore their smile using dental implants.

If you're missing one or a number of your teeth, please don't hesitate to contact us. Make an appointment today so that we can offer you the best solution to your particular needs.

Stress, anxiety and today's fast pace lifestyle results in an increasingly larger number of adult patients with 'bruxism'. This is the grinding of teeth or clenching of the jaw. This usually occurs while one is asleep, and is easily detectable due to the noise produced as one ´grinds´ their top teeth against their bottom teeth.

Bruxism causes significant wear on the teeth and is often associated with hypersensitivity. Other common side effects often include headaches, migraines, and problems with the joints in your jaw. Early detection and treatment is important to prevent the occurrence of problems associated with bruxism.

Vélez&Lozano is up-to-date on the latest state-of-the-art technologies allowing us to make an identical plaster model of your bite. Using this plaster model, we can design a Michigan splint helping to completely stop you from grinding your teeth, thereby reducing tooth wear and ´deprogramming´ your jaw. This will allow you to enjoy a deeper and more relaxed sleep, and avoiding migraines brought on by bruxism.

One out of every three adults suffers from periodontitis (commonly known as ´pyorrhea´), a disease characterized by a reduction in and/or loss of the bone that holds the teeth in place..

At Vélez&Lozano we work with the latest and most up-to-date international protocols that address periodontal diseases, we monitor the progression and advancement of these diseases and use the latest computer technology to solve any issues that arise. We give regular checkups to ensure your teeth and gums are as healthy as possibly can be.

If you have noticed recently that your gums have 'shrank', if you smoke, or you are over 40-years old, we advise you to make an appointment with our periodontal treatment specialist to ensure the future health of your teeth, your ´bite´ and your smile.

The advances in aesthetic restorative materials in recent years, and the use of Renamel (one of the most used cosmetic compomers used by professionals in cosmetic dentistry), make it easier than ever to replace old and outdated fillings with new ones, allowing your smile to truly shine.

With the use of new biomimetic techniques we can use a variety of different colors and opaque tones to match a filling to the exact color of your teeth. This is all thanks to the use of new ´glazes´and ´dentins´ that can be carefully mixed to take on the same shade as the surrounding teeth without having to use anesthesia or cut into teeth. A process that can be done quickly, easily and safely – resulting in a radiant smile like you haven't seen in years!

In addition to these procedures, our Periodontology department can evaluate the ´architecture´ of your gums, ensuring that they are the proper size and distributed evenly around the teeth. If needed, a treatment can be performed to redistribute gums so that your smile can be a ´perfect 10´.
