The dentist without small print.

At Esmalte the prices are on the wall — literally. You know the cost before you sit in the chair, you leave with a written plan, and nobody sells you treatments you do not need.

The duo

Two siblings, two chairs

A small clinic on purpose: the person who assesses you is the person who treats you, from the first visit to the last smile. No rotation, no new faces every time.

Dra. Marta Sá

"The best compliment I get is: that didn't hurt at all."

"I've been straightening teeth since I straightened my sister's, back in 2009."

Afraid of the dentist?

You don't have to count to ten. We'll wait.

A good share of our patients went years without setting foot in a practice. We know exactly how that feels — and we have a protocol for it.

  1. First visit, no drill

    On your first visit we only talk, look, and hand you a plan with fixed prices. Nothing happens without your yes.

  2. A hand signal to stop

    We agree on a gesture before we start. Raise your hand and we stop within a second. Always. No questions, no sighs.

  3. Conscious sedation

    For longer treatments we offer inhalation sedation. You stay relaxed, awake — and keep no memory of the stress.

Insurance & agreements

The reimbursement is our problem

We work with the main Portuguese health insurers and subsystems. Just show up — the reimbursement paperwork is handled by us at reception, before you leave.

  • Multicare
  • AdvanceCare

People who came before you

What patients say

I hadn't set foot in a practice for 9 years. Dra. Marta spent 40 minutes just talking with me — nobody touched a drill. I came back the next week, and the one after. Now I come for cleanings like I'd go for coffee.
Carla M.43 · Matosinhos
I asked for the price of a root canal over the phone and they told me on the spot, no hedging. In the end I paid exactly what was on the wall. That had never happened to me at a dentist.
Ricardo T.38 · Leça da Palmeira
Eight months of aligners with Dr. Nuno and not even my colleagues noticed — until they saw the result. The written plan, with a fixed price, is what won me over.
