In 2025, access to advanced treatments coexists with dental challenges affecting everyone, from children to older adults. As the best dentist in the Dominican Republic, Dr. Sabrinsky Flores helps you prevent, detect, and address these problems with personalized solutions in Santo Domingo.



1. Tooth decay remains the most common


- Tooth decay is a common oral health problem that can be prevented and treated.


  • Prevention: brushing twice a day with fluoride toothpaste, a low-sugar diet, fluoride treatments at our clinic


2. Periodontal disease


  • People with diabetes have a higher risk of periodontal disease, especially when blood glucose is not well controlled.

  • Across the country, gum diseases are among the leading causes of tooth loss.

  • Treatments: deep cleaning, periodontal disease management, ongoing maintenance.


3. Dental anxiety: a growing obstacle


  • If you feel anxious about going to the dentist, mention it before the appointment so care can be adapted and measures agreed upon to help you feel more comfortable.

  • At our clinic, Dr. Sabrinsky uses conscious sedation and emotional comfort techniques to make the visit calm.


4. Dry mouth and effects of new medications


  • Some medications can reduce saliva production. Persistent dryness increases the risk of cavities; tell your dentist and the professional prescribing your medications so they can assess the cause and management.

  • Solution: hydration, dry-mouth products, frequent checkups.


5. Oral health challenges in older adults


  • Older people retain more teeth but face challenges cleaning them; access to treatment is limited .

  • At the clinic, we offer personalized geriatric care adapted to their abilities.


6. Innovations: AI, teledentistry, and 3D technology


  • AI improves diagnosis using X-rays, CBCT, and personalized treatment planning .

  • The clinic is equipped with CBCT and implements advanced diagnostics.

  • Teledentistry allows remote initial consultations, ideal for convenience and prevention.

  • In use: 3D printing for aligners and precise, quickly produced prostheses.


7. The connection between oral health and systemic disease


  • Clearly linked to the heart, diabetes, pregnancy, and more.

  • In Santo Domingo, our treatments protect your smile and overall well-being with a comprehensive approach.
