Dra. Mercedes López

Dr. Mercedes López is a specialist in periodontics and dental implants, two deeply interrelated disciplines: a healthy periodontal foundation is the essential prerequisite for any successful implant.

With extensive experience in the diagnosis and treatment of periodontal disease, Dr. López guides her patients from diagnosis through to long-term periodontal maintenance.

Areas of specialisation

Her clinical practice covers:

• Diagnosis and treatment of chronic and aggressive periodontitis
• Resective and regenerative periodontal surgery
• Periodontal plastic surgery (gum grafts, gingivoplasty)
• Implant placement in periodontally compromised sites
• Soft-tissue aesthetic design around implants and teeth

Treatment philosophy

She firmly believes that periodontal maintenance is as important as active treatment. Her patients receive a personalised maintenance protocol that ensures the long-term stability of results.
