Listening first, protecting what is natural and delivering every treatment with precision and artistry.

Cosmetic & Restorative Dentistry
From Cali, Colombia to Fort Lauderdale, Dr. Escalante’s journey in dentistry has always been guided by precision, artistry and purpose.
With nearly 20 years of experience, his career has taken him from serving as an emergency dentist for the Colombian Armed Forces to advanced dental training in the U.S., where he continued refining his expertise in cosmetic and restorative dentistry.
His lifelong passion for art shapes the way he approaches every smile, combining technical precision, creativity and a deep understanding of each patient’s individual needs. For Dr. Escalante, dentistry is more than creating beautiful smiles. It is about creating results that feel natural, intentional and uniquely yours.

Implantology, Periodontics & Restorative Dentistry
Dr. Johnny Moraes is a Brazilian-trained dentist with 11 years of experience and a background in advanced implantology, periodontics, and restorative dentistry, including periodontal plastic surgery. He brings a compassionate and thoughtful approach to patient care, combining his clinical experience with a commitment to understanding the person behind each smile.
For Dr. Johnny, excellent care combines clinical skill with a meaningful connection between dentist and patient. With his warm and approachable manner, he takes the time to listen, understand each patient’s concerns, and learn what matters most to them. He believes patients deserve to feel heard, understood, and comfortable with the person caring for them, and that this connection creates a foundation of trust throughout the treatment process.
Adaptability is one of his greatest strengths. He approaches each case with an open mind, adjusting his thinking and treatment planning to the individual needs and circumstances of the patient. His experience addressing complex cases has shaped a flexible, thoughtful approach that welcomes different perspectives and explores the possibilities available to each person.
At the heart of his philosophy is the belief that finding the right solution begins with identifying the real need. Before recommending a treatment, Dr. Johnny seeks to understand the underlying concern and how it affects the patient’s life. By asking thoughtful questions and looking beyond the most obvious issue, he works to develop a personalized approach that supports each patient’s oral health, comfort, and confidence.
