Take The Next Step

What to Expect During Your Visit

From the moment you arrive, your care is approached with the bigger picture in mind. Our dental clinic in Sandton does not treat symptoms in isolation. We take time to understand your whole story; your health background, lifestyle, priorities, and goals–so we can make decisions that truly align with your needs. Whether you are here for a check-up, a complex procedure, or aesthetic treatment, your plan is designed to be realistic, respectful of your time, and tailored to support your overall well-being, not just your teeth.

The Woman Behind The Practice

As a leading dental surgeon based in Sandton, Dr Maria Pestana is a dental professional whose clinical experience is matched by a deep respect for the human side of healthcare. Having graduated from the world’s third best dental school in 1985, her approach is grounded, attentive, and shaped by years of experience working with patients of all ages and clinical needs. At Pestana we believe in practical solutions, long-term outcomes, and care that never feels rushed.

Technology That Supports Your Care

Excellent care starts with the right tools. Our centre is equipped with the world’s leading technologies designed to improve precision, safety, and comfort.

Every detail is built around modern efficiency, from digital dental radiology and 3D orofacial scanning to Cone Beam CT scans, panoramic X-rays, CAD/CAM prosthetics and Biolase dental lasers.

In our physiotherapy and medical centre, you will find professional grade equipment, such as TENS machines for muscle recovery and a 12-lead ECG, one of the few available in primary care clinics in Sandton.

Our Aesthetics Clinic bases its care on the Gold Standard offered globally, including treatments endorsed by the Royal Society of Medicine and the FDA. We’re advanced, but most importantly patient safety is our biggest priority. Our Aesthetic Doctor, having obtained a Master of Surgery degree in Aesthetics from UCL in London, offers injectable treatments and minimally-invasive aesthetic surgical procedures. “Aesthetics Over Everything” offer skin enhancement, lash and brow services, chemical peels, needling and energy based device treatments such as NeoGen Nitrogen Plasma Technology, EndyMed 3DEEP Radiofrequency, Microneedling, Microstamping and Velashape II.
