This down-to-earth man with a perpetual smile on his face has established himself as one of the country’s respected and well-known dental practitioners.

Travelers, especially balikbayan, OFWs and local clients have recognized the superior quality of the cosmetic dentistry in the country. It is not surprising to see patients jetting in to his clinics all over Metro Manila for a “smile-makeover holiday.”

“Healthcare costs which have skyrocketed in the developed world have led the adventurous medical tourists to look for dental clinics and hospitals in the country that have topnotch doctors, high-tech equipment and competitive costs,” says Dr. Malony Santos.

The dental clinics of Santos, who has several years of experience in dental clinic operation and administration, are gearing up to compete in the lucrative medical tourism market.

In its bid to get a slice of the growing market, Santos has put up a world–class dental healthcare complex that can serve hundreds of patients annually.

And consistent with its thrust on healthcare promotion, the M. L. Santos Dental Cosmetic and TMJ Center has launched several dental health promotion programs.

“Our clinics have established cutting-edge dental health services in the areas of dental cosmetics, implantology, prosthodontics, orthodontics, TMJ-orthopedics and general dentistry,” Santos said.

“We bring good smile to life” is the motto of Santos’ clinics, which can complete “smile makeovers” in as least seven days, making it convenient for foreign travelers, especially balikbayan on a visit, to achieve superior results at a reasonable price.

The dental clinics offer integrated, specialized and customized treatment and care using a unique multi-discipline approach.

Clients are given the utmost comfort, including complimentary pick-up and delivery during their entire visit and assistance with their travel and hotel arrangements.

Santos said his clients experience the world-famous Filipino hospitality, just as in Filipino homes and five-star hotels.

“We deliver the one thing that people want in healthcare but don’t expect to get — service,” he added.

Santos’ clinics boast of 15 doctors at a time, all of whom are experts in their respective fields of specialization, and an efficient allied medical and administrative staff.

The M. L. Santos Dental Cosmetics and TMJ Center recently inaugurated its Makati branch along Buendia Avenue.
