About
Dr. Cristhian Figueroa practices in Bucaramanga with a conservative restorative approach shaped by distinguished academic training. He graduated Cum Laude from Universidad Santo Tomás and has spent more than ten years treating patients from the city, the metropolitan area, and abroad. His planning starts from the tooth that is still healthy: adhesive inlays, onlays, and overlays come before a crown, and no treatment proposal is written until the exam, radiographs, and bite have been reviewed. Smile work is planned digitally, checked with a mock-up, and finished in lithium-disilicate ceramic or resin with little or no preparation. He sees patients in Spanish and English at Edificio SOMES, Carrera 29 #47-108, office 18, in the Sotomayor neighborhood.
Treatments and Procedures
Featured Services
Conservative restorations, full-mouth rehabilitation, and cosmetic dentistry planned around the tooth structure that can still be saved.
Biomimetic Dentistry
Adhesive dentistry that aims to give a damaged tooth back its natural behavior. Inlays, onlays, and overlays are preferred while sound enamel and dentin remain, with attention to bonding and to how the restoration handles biting forces. A crown is used only when the remaining tooth cannot support a smaller restoration.
Advanced Oral Rehabilitation
Care for complex cases that need chewing, bite, and appearance restored with as little removal of healthy tooth as possible. Options include adhesive overlays, high-suction prostheses for patients who have lost their teeth, and implants when a fixed or supported solution is the right fit. Scope and materials are defined after diagnosis.
Smile Design
A planned smile rather than a same-day reshape. Digital planning and a mock-up let the patient see the proposal before anything is cemented. Ceramic work uses lithium disilicate; resin is an alternative when it suits the case. Veneers and ceramic lenses are prepared minimally, or not at all, and checked before bonding.
Ceramic Veneers
Thin ceramic veneers and lenses for color, shape, and proportion, designed to keep preparation small. The try-in happens before cementation so the result can be reviewed in the mouth, not only on a screen.

Why Patients Choose Dr. Cristhian Figueroa
Save the Tooth, Diagnose First, Show the Work
The practice is organized around three habits: keep healthy tooth structure, refuse to quote a case before it has been examined, and document each stage so the protocol can be reviewed.
WhatsApp
An inlay before a crown
Minimal Intervention
When an adhesive restoration can save a tooth, it is not cut down for a crown. Keeping sound enamel and dentin is what makes a result hold up over ten or twenty years. The standard he works toward is a tooth that looks right and also bites correctly.
No price list without an exam
Diagnosis Before a Proposal
No plan is set until the clinical exam, radiographs, and bite analysis are done. Fees are quoted per case after that visit, which is why the practice does not publish a menu of prices.
Isolation, magnification, and photos
A Protocol You Can Review
Treatment is carried out with rubber-dam isolation, magnification, bite checks, and a full photographic record at each stage, so the steps are visible rather than described only in words.
Frequently Asked Questions
Where the office is, how to book, why prices are not listed, and what to expect if you are traveling to Bucaramanga.
Where does Dr. Cristhian Figueroa see patients in Bucaramanga?
At Edificio SOMES, Carrera 29 #47-108, office 18, in the Sotomayor neighborhood, Santander. The office is a short ride from Cabecera del Llano and from downtown Bucaramanga.
Does he treat patients coming from abroad?
Yes. Visits can be held in Spanish or English, including for people traveling for dental care. The fastest way to start is WhatsApp at +57 302 754 7827. The written plan and fee come after the clinical diagnosis, not before.
Why isn't there a published price list?
Each case is quoted after the exam, radiographs, and bite analysis. A fixed menu would skip that step, so the practice does not publish one.
What does biomimetic dentistry mean in this office?
It means restoring a tooth so it behaves more like the original: bonded inlays, onlays, and overlays while healthy enamel and dentin can be kept, and a crown only when the remaining structure requires it.
A Tooth That Works, Not Only One That Looks Finished
Care Philosophy
Excellence, in this practice, sits in the steps a patient may never notice: what was left untouched, how the bite was checked, and whether the record of the case still makes sense years later. Academic training and current technique are used for the same end — a result that lasts because the natural tooth was respected first.
