20+ Years Of Dental Excellence
Get To Know Dr. Alessandra Coelho
Before coming to the United States, Dr. Alessandra Coelho spent more than 20 years as a dentist in her home country of Brazil. She received her dental education from UFPA, holds dual degrees as both a dentist and an orthodontist/facial orthopedic specialist in Brazil, and operated her own clinic in Brazil for 18+ years.
Originally, Dr. Coelho came to the United States to seek advanced training to help her run her own dental clinic more effectively. She moved to the U.S. and obtained an Executive Practice Management certificate program from the University of Florida during 2016-2017.
Initially, Dr. Coelho lived in the U.S. part-time, flying back to Brazil every month to see patients and manage her practice. But after falling in love with the country, Dr. Coelho decided to attend the International Dental Graduate Program at Nova Southeastern University. Through this program, she could validate her Brazilian dental credentials and obtain her U.S. dental degree.
And that’s exactly what she did! After graduating from Nova Southeastern University with her DMD, Dr. Coelho opened up Boutique Smiles. Over her 20+ year dental career, Dr. Coelho has served more than 4,000 patients. She’s excited to have the opportunity to use her years of experience to provide top-notch dental care to patients in Plantation and the surrounding areas of South Florida.
Outside of the office, Dr. Coelho loves spending time with her husband, and her three teenage children keep her quite busy, too. When she has time, she enjoys catching the latest movies in the theater, reading a good book, and staying active at the local gym.

The First Visit Experience
What to Expect
Once you enter our office, you’ll check in with our front desk team. You may need to fill out a couple of forms if you haven't already filled them out online. After that, you’re free to relax in our comfortable waiting area.
Next, one of our dental team members will bring you back to an operating room. You’ll meet one of our dentists, then they'll perform a comprehensive exam complete with X-rays and an oral cancer screening.
After this, your dentist will discuss the findings and your overall oral health with you, and any next steps or further treatments you may need to keep your smile healthy.
The next step is a comprehensive teeth cleaning. One of our dental hygienists will scale, polish, and floss your teeth. Not only does this remove harmful plaque and bacteria buildup, but it also keeps your teeth smooth, bright, and shiny.
As the final step, you’ll check in with our front desk team one final time to schedule your next checkup or any necessary follow-ups. Then, you’ll be on your way!
