PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

Dentists and sisters, Dr. Magaly López and Dr. Regina López work together at the “Dental Spa” to give their patients double the care and attention toward the goal of creating beautiful healthy smiles. They have the gentle touch and delicate manner to treat very young children or elderly patients, and everyone in between, with the comfort and patience that they deserve.

Both dentists offer more than 25 years of dental experience in various specialties, and with the latest in digital flow technology. From oral scanners measuring down to the millimeter, to zirconia crowns 3-D printed with laser precision, they can offer crowns and bridges to the highest standards of global quality. Newly developed methods and materials provide patients with faster service and fewer appointments, and the doctors appreciate the enhanced ability to create gorgeous dental restorations in a shorter time.

Dr. Magaly says, “We love this part of our work – performing together as a team to give our patients the best possible service, with each one of us doing what we do best. Patients are more calm and confident knowing that what was promised is done correctly and completely, so that both the doctors and patients can be satisfied with reliable high-quality results.”

Some patients come to Dr. Magaly after having sub-standard dental work done by other dentists who could have been unethical or inexperienced. She has a calm nature to assure them that the treatment plan with her at Dental Spa will be successful and beautiful, to last for the long term.

With digital and panoramic x-rays available in her clinic, Dr. López can produce the images instantly and show you evidence of deterioration so you two can discuss the treatment plan together. The goal is to stop any further degeneration, then restore lost functionality. Dental issues can affect your heart and joints. Most people don’t know that bacterial infections of periodontitis can increase Alzheimer’s risk, or if your mouth and jaw are out of alignment, it can affect your neck and back and posture.

A mouth guard is important. At night, it is normal to grind your teeth to some extent and for some people it is more forceful, to the point of damaging their teeth. Using a mouth guard can reduce headaches and tinnitus in your ears. Avoid the friction that causes broken molars that will need to have fillings or crowns later on. Dr. López looks at the overall health of the patient to get a broad-spectrum viewpoint based on scientific evidence before determining the best approach for a treatment plan.

Consider these services when choosing your dental provider:

  • Dr. López is professionally certified to provide nitrous oxide for patients who might be anxious or need some help to relax. For patient safety, they have constant monitoring with a doctor, in addition to the dental specialist.
  • Dr. López has a complete mobile dental clinic to deliver high quality x-rays and dental services to elderly or immobile patients in their home or hotel in Guatemala City.
  • The primary specialty of Dr. López is pediatric dentistry. She is one of the few dental specialists with many years of experience treating the special need of infants, young children, and adolescents.
  • Insurance companies in Guatemala have included Dental Spa in their network of trusted providers. Bring the forms from your agent, and she will help you fill them out so you can request a full refund of your dental expenses from your insurance provider.
  • Dr. López is available to attend to emergency calls in case of accident or severe pain when a clinic appointment is not available.
  • Botox can reduce bruxism and improve appearance in the upper lip to cover a “gummy” smile or provide balance. Dr. López is a certified provider.

In addition to English, she works with patients in Guatemala who speak Portugues as a first language. Clear communication in your mother tongue builds trust, with no misunderstanding. Dr. López attends conventions and visits universities to teach workshops for younger dentists in Mexico, Brazil, Peru and Colombia. She has served as a university level professor teaching dental students at local universities: Rafael Landivar Medical Sciences, University of Francisco Marroquin (UFM), San Carlos- USAC and University of Mariano Galvez.

According to Dra. Magaly, “The most important part of our service is the responsibility to treat each patient as an individual. Our good work serves to improve their physical and emotional well-being. It’s not enough to be well, but to feel confident and look attractive too, enjoying all aspects of your quality of life.”

In conclusion, the doctors of Dental Spa quote Ms. Maya Angelou, a famous American poet, to share their sentiments about their patient relationships:

“I have learned that people will forget what you say, and they will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

REVIEWS FROM PATIENTS

On the day of first operation, Dr. Magaly Lopez blew me away with her level of caring. She had one of those bite blocks in to keep my mouth open. I hate them but I was willing to suffer through it to get the job done. After only 10 minutes, I asked for a break because my jaw hurt. Doctor Magaly stopped what she was doing, took the bite block out, set the tools down, and personally massaged my jaw for 5 minutes or so before continuing to work. It blew me away.

Had quite a bit of work done: 5 crowns, a few fillings, 2 inlays. She was thorough and very fairly priced.

To Dra. Magaly:  I just wanted to reach out and say thank you for all of your hard work and dedication to fixing my issues. You are amazing – I typically have severe anxiety going to dentist, but I actually enjoyed coming to you. You are my favorite dentist I have ever been treated by, thank you!

I have seen Dr. Ana Lopez several times in all three of her service locations. I really needed a dentist that I could trust and who is very gentle. I am so satisfied with the results of my dental work. She and her office colleagues I found to be very professional and considerate. I also found that her facilities to be up to date.  I would and have recommended anyone to have their dental work done at Dental Spa.

I was driving to Panajachel for a family vacation when the pain in two of my teeth became unbearable. I would never be able to relax this way, so I turned the car around and called Dra. Magaly to ask if she could see me after working hours for this emergency situation. I’m so grateful that she could do two root canal treatments right away, with temporary crowns. With a couple of hours delay, we were able to continue our trip and enjoy every minute at the Lake.

Dr. Magaly shared this story

Miss Valeria came to Guatemala in 2016 to give a conference for a prestigious pharmaceutical company. She was in her Guatemala City hotel room the day before the event when she suffered a dental fracture, losing half of her upper back tooth. She could not possibly give a speech to an auditorium of doctors with half of her tooth missing, and she worried about getting high-quality emergency dental care in a foreign country.

Fortunately, Valeria’s business colleague is a regular patient of ours, and called us right away to get the tooth fixed immediately. We prepared her tooth, then took an impression, and placed a temporary crown. With CAD/CAM dental manufacturing technology we were able to place her permanent aesthetic crown the next day, before the conference started.

Our patient was so grateful to have a newly restored tooth, that she shared her story with her audience, and congratulated the Guatemalan Dental Spa professionals for their commitment to service and excellence.
