Success came after a lot of hard work and years building a solid career. Dr. Sandra Figueiredo is currently one of the most recognized professionals in the field of OR ( Orofunctional Rehabilitation). She has held a degree in Dentistry from the Universidade Federal Fluminense (UFF) since 1988, and is postgraduate-trained in Aesthetic Health.
After a broad career in dentistry, completing a Postgraduate Program in Orthodontics and Pediatric Dentistry, Dr. Sandra found her place in aesthetic dentistry, and today she is one of the best-known dental surgeons specializing in Facial Harmonization in Rio de Janeiro.
In 2014, she was a student in the first Nepuga/FAPUGA class in Rio de Janeiro, and after graduating she decided to start her own business and opened the Dr. Sandra Figueiredo Orofacial Harmonization Clinic. As her work grew, the doctor carved out more and more space in the market, launching herself as a teacher and instructor in the field.
Qualifications and a Benchmark in Aesthetic Health
A master's student in Oral Rehabilitation at Universidade Veiga de Almeida, an academic member of AcBO (Brazilian Academy of Dentistry) and Coordinator at SBTI (Brazilian Society of Botulinum Toxin), she is currently a dentist at Hospital Federal Cardoso Fontes.
In addition, she teaches open courses in Orofacial Harmonization and is a speaker at events in the USA, Mexico, Portugal, and Brazil. Dr. Sandra is a leading professional, and by sharing her knowledge on social media she has already gained about 6,000 followers on Instagram!
When a professional outgrows what they have, it is not enough to hold all the knowledge; it is necessary to expand, and that is what Dr. Sandra did. That is how the Sandra Figueiredo Institute was born, a company dedicated to performing aesthetic health procedures and training new professionals in the field.
Dr. Sandra divides her time between seeing patients at her clinic and her teaching career. Recently, the dentist went to Harvard Medical School to give a talk on smart filling and received a warm round of applause. She is also a speaker at symposiums, congresses, and meetings focused on Orofacial Harmonization.
