Dr. Heleno was born and raised in a small town in Brazil. His curiosity for building and problem-solving, combined with a memorable childhood visit to the dentist, sparked his passion for helping others through dentistry. Today, he brings that same dedication to every patient he treats, combining skill, compassion, and a genuine love for creating healthy, confident smiles.
He began his dental career in 2006 at the Federal University of Juiz de Fora (UFJF), an internationally recognized institution known for its high-quality education in Brazil. After completing many advanced dental trainings, he later pursued his most recent program at Boston University Henry M. Goldman School of Dental Medicine in Massachusetts.
Now based in Oviedo, Florida, Dr. Heleno is excited to provide exceptional care to local residents. If he could define his approach to dentistry, it would be: "Always striving for improvement, constantly moving toward excellence."
A member of the American Dental Association (ADA), Florida Dental Association (FDA), and Central Florida District Dental Association (CFDDA), he continually hones his skills through continuing education, professional networking, and staying at the forefront of dental innovations.
Dr. Heleno specializes in oral rehabilitation, with a focus on implant surgery, aesthetic orthodontics, and prosthodontics.
Outside the office, he enjoys custom woodworking, fitness, nutrition, exploring science, and spending quality time with family and friends.
