Specialist medical care

Advanced facial and oral surgery in Madrid.

The practice of Dr Francisco Riba García is focused on patients who require a precise maxillofacial, facial or implantology assessment.

Many patients seek a second opinion, present complex clinical situations or wish to understand their surgical options in detail before making a decision. Dr Riba’s approach is based on individual diagnosis, anatomical planning, medical prudence and a clear explanation of each stage of treatment.

For international patients or patients living outside Madrid, the team can coordinate care in English or Spanish, review previous clinical documentation and organise the necessary appointments so that the process is structured, realistic and medically appropriate.

Areas of expertise

Procedures for patients who require specialist planning.

Each case is assessed individually. The medical indication depends on diagnosis, imaging studies, facial or oral anatomy, medical history and the functional or aesthetic objectives of treatment.

Orthognathic surgery

Correction of the maxilla, jaw and facial skeleton

Assessment of dentofacial deformities, bite disorders, facial asymmetries and cases in which oral function and facial harmony need to be planned together.

Custom facial implants

Bespoke 3D design

Custom implants for the chin, jawline, cheekbones, infraorbital area or other facial regions, designed from the patient’s own anatomy using advanced 3D planning.

Advanced implantology

Complex oral rehabilitation

Assessment of bone loss, failed implants, maxillary reconstruction and full-arch rehabilitations requiring maxillofacial surgical judgement and individualised planning.

Facial plastic surgery

Structural facial surgery

Procedures aimed at improving facial harmony from an anatomical perspective, respecting the patient’s identity and avoiding standardised approaches.

Second opinions

Review of previous diagnoses and treatment plans

Independent assessment for patients who wish to compare a diagnosis, review a surgical plan or better understand their alternatives. You may also review selected clinical cases.

Digital surgical planning

Precision before surgery

Digital planning allows detailed anatomical analysis, supports surgical decision-making and helps explain the procedure more clearly before any intervention is carried out.

Patient process

From the first assessment to postoperative review.

The process is organised progressively, with clear clinical information and without anticipating surgical decisions until the necessary medical data are available.

1

Initial online consultation

The patient may send medical reports, clinical photographs, radiological studies and key questions. The team reviews the available information and advises on the next steps.

2

Medical assessment and proposal

When the case allows, an initial orientation is provided regarding the procedure, required tests, estimated budget and usual recovery times.

3

In-person consultation in Madrid

The in-person consultation allows the diagnosis to be confirmed, the clinical examination to be completed and the indication for surgery and the most appropriate surgical setting to be assessed.

4

Medical follow-up

After surgery, reviews are scheduled according to the procedure and clinical progress. When the patient returns home, remote follow-up may be maintained when clinically appropriate.

Coordination for patients travelling to Madrid

Organisation of medical appointments and surgical planning according to the patient’s availability and the complexity of the case.
Guidance on the estimated length of stay in Madrid, always adapted to the procedure and expected recovery period.
Practical recommendations regarding accommodation close to the consultation location when required.
Coordination of clinical documentation, medical reports, imaging studies and consent forms before the in-person visit.
Communication in English or Spanish to support understanding of the medical process, preoperative instructions and postoperative reviews.
Follow-up according to medical criteria, with in-person or remote reviews when clinically appropriate.

A prudent and personalised medical approach

Before surgery is indicated, the case is assessed from an anatomical, functional, aesthetic and medical perspective.
The patient receives a clear explanation of the available options, limitations, risks and expected recovery times.
Planning is not based on standard solutions, but on individual diagnosis and the patient’s facial or oral structure.
Patient privacy, confidentiality of clinical documentation and discretion throughout the process are central to the standard of care.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions before travelling to Madrid.

Can I have a consultation before travelling to Madrid?

Yes. In many cases, an initial online assessment can be carried out. It is helpful to provide medical reports, clinical photographs, X-rays, CBCT, CT scans or other available imaging studies. This first review helps determine whether it is appropriate to schedule an in-person consultation.

Can the consultation be carried out in English?

Yes. Communication with the team can be in English or Spanish. When required, clinical documentation may also be provided in English so that the patient can properly understand the diagnosis, treatment plan and medical instructions.

How many days should I plan to stay in Madrid?

This depends on the procedure, whether additional tests are required, the type of anaesthesia, surgical complexity and postoperative progress. The estimated length of stay is explained individually during the planning stage.

What happens with follow-up if I live outside Spain?

Follow-up is adapted to the type of surgery and clinical progress. Some reviews must be carried out in person, while others may be performed remotely by video consultation or through review of clinical documentation, always according to medical criteria.

Can your team advise me on accommodation in Madrid?

Yes. The team can provide practical guidance on areas to stay near the consultation location in order to make travel between appointments, reviews or the first days of recovery more convenient.

Can I request a second opinion if I already have a diagnosis?

Yes. Dr Riba assesses second opinions in complex maxillofacial, facial and implantology cases. For a rigorous review, it is advisable to provide previous reports, imaging studies and any treatment plan or surgical proposal already received.
