Dr. Hank Barreto is a third-generation dentist who has been transforming smiles and redefining dental care since 1988. A graduate of Rutgers University and the Fairleigh Dickinson School of Dentistry, Dr. Barreto refined his craft under the mentorship of some of the world’s most respected dental and medical educators. His work reflects decades of study, precision, and an unwavering commitment to the well-being of every patient who walks through his doors.

To Dr. Barreto, dentistry extends far beyond teeth and gums, it’s about balance, vitality, and the connection between oral health and total wellness. His approach combines advanced clinical techniques with bio-compatible materials that support the body’s natural healing ability. Every treatment is guided by the belief that true health begins with harmony, between science and nature, precision and compassion.

Each patient is treated as an individual, not a diagnosis. From the first consultation to the final treatment, Dr. Barreto and his team design personalized care plans that respect the body, the environment, and the lifelong value of prevention.

Holistic dentistry, also known as biological dentistry, focuses on restoring and maintaining oral health through safe, non-toxic, and body-conscious methods. Unlike conventional dentistry, which treats isolated dental concerns, holistic dentistry considers the interconnectedness of the entire body, physical, emotional, and energetic. The goal is not only a healthier mouth, but a healthier life.

This approach eliminates the use of harmful materials like mercury and fluoride and embraces natural solutions that align with the body’s own wisdom. It’s a philosophy built on integrity, respect for the individual, and a deep understanding of how oral health affects every system within us.

Dr. Barreto established his Coral Gables practice to fill a need he recognized early in his career — compassionate, comprehensive care that puts patients first. Today, he is recognized as one of Miami’s foremost experts in holistic dental treatment. Patients travel from around the world to seek his expertise, drawn not just by his skill, but by the trust and calm he inspires.

His decades of experience, commitment to continuing education, and passion for healing make Dr. Barreto a trusted name in holistic and biological dentistry.
