Your Smile + a Quito Getaway: Treatment as the Trip of a Lifetime
What if your next big trip were also the moment you got your smile back? It isn’t a daydream — it’s exactly what many patients experience in Quito. They come for world-class dental work and, between appointments, fall in love with one of South America’s most beautiful cities.
The idea is simple and powerful: turn a trip to the dentist into the journey of a lifetime. Here’s how to pair your treatment with the adventure — unhurried, at your own pace, and with a bilingual team beside you every step of the way.
Your treatment sets the rhythm; you set the plan
Before you travel, we plan your case together: how many appointments you’ll need, how much time between them, and which days you’ll have free. That clear schedule is what lets you build your getaway wisely. And because we work with same-day imaging and quick lab turnaround, you spend less time waiting and more time exploring.
A host’s tip: right after a procedure, treat yourself to a couple of easy days —a coffee with a view, a gentle stroll through the old town— and save the most active outings for when you’re feeling great. Quito sits at about 2,850 meters (9,350 ft), so take it slow the first days; your specialist will tell you exactly what you can do and when. The good news: the city packs so much within reach that there’s always a plan to match how you feel.
Quito, between appointments
Start in the colonial heart: Plaza Grande, the Church of La Compañía —blanketed in gold leaf, a Baroque jewel— and the soaring San Francisco church. Then wander La Ronda, the city’s most bohemian street, past chocolate makers, candle artisans and taverns with live music.
When you feel up to it, head to the El Panecillo lookout or the Basílica del Voto Nacional to see Quito from above. And once your specialist gives the green light, the TelefériQo cable car carries you almost into the clouds on Pichincha volcano. All of it under Quito’s “eternal spring” climate, which makes almost any day a good one for walking.
And the food? We look after you here too: start gentle with a creamy potato locro or a comforting broth, and when you’re ready, try hornado (roast pork), paila ice cream and an Ecuadorian coffee you’ll miss back home. We’ll tell you where — just minutes from the clinic.
And if you want more: the Galápagos and the Andes
Quito is the gateway to some of the most extraordinary places on Earth. Flights to the Galápagos leave from here; the Andes and the Cotopaxi volcano are close by; and the colorful markets of Otavalo await to the north. Many patients use their final days —new smile and all— to add the trip they always dreamed of. The treatment stops being an errand and becomes the perfect excuse for an unforgettable adventure.
