Dental Bridges Costa Rica

Excellent job and service! the doctor was very quick and effective in his treatment. And the clinic´s personnel were kind and easy to talk to. I had 4 crowns and I found a very fair price.

The things that I can say about Costa Rica Dental team cannot be expressed in the little amount of space I have here. I came here to Costa Rica in May of 2022 to a different dental place that put me through 15 days of horror. I thought I was permanently disfigured. On my plane ride home The 3 people around me were exchanging fishing pictures talking about the fun they had here. I shared my horrible experience after being told I was going to be able to go enjoy Costa Rica like they did. Instead I was prisoner at home without teeth just wondering if I would ever get to go home. They all said they were here in Costa Rica for the same exact job and all 3 said they went to Costa Rica Dental Team. I messaged them instantly before the plane started moving and gave a bit of a description of what I just went through and I am stuck without a bite and crooked teeth. Who does that? I went in with perfectly straight white teeth and came out all b butchered up with crooked teeth. By the time the plane landed I was so thankful that Costa Rica Dental team was already in contact with me. I couldn’t even eat as only one tooth touched the bottom. That’s how crooked this was and the other place had no shame to steal my money and ignore the botched up job they did. Maria scheduled me; she sent me links to rental places and answered any questions I had. By the time I met the staff at Costa Rica Dental team I couldn’t believe the difference in organization and professionalism. Then I got to meet Dr Mora and her lovely personality. It reminded me of when I was on the plane trying to write my message as fast as possible and the guy next to me couldn’t stop talking about how much he loved Dr Mora. I got to experience her expressions and her positive energy. She started grinding like she sculpting a piece of art and before too long she was able to take what was impossible to live with and made it to where I could eat until the implants healed and come redo this terrible job done by other dentist in Costa Rica. The unfortunate part is this zirconia junk that was forced in my mouth was so crooked and never allowed me to bite down ended up breaking in the middle of the night wearing a night guard. It didn’t even break anywhere near the grinding work done but it was so poorly made that the minute I was able to have a bite the zirconia that was sold to the lowest bidder snapped into 2 pieces. Thank god I was still in Costa Rica and able to be rescued by costa Rica dental team once more. I was scheduled to come back in November of 2022. I had to endure the embarrassment caused by the other dentist having a hard time eating and so many other problems including the top section falling out of my mouth. Finally November is here and I am finally going to have corrected dental work. The procedures and excellent knowledge of these people was completely opposite of my last experience with the dentist who stole my money. First temp was better than the last attempt at the other place. Seeing Dr Mora in action is something on its own but they all get together and make sure they collaborate and come up with the little they needed to change for the second temp. The lies and excuses I got from that other place were such easy fixes with these dentists at the other Dental Team. These professionals corrected my smile. I am now able to eat normal and smile without embarrassment. I cannot praise Costa Rica dental team enough. I wrote a short version of the horror I had before finding Costa Rica Dental team. I highly recommend everyone to come here. From Maria at the front desk to Dr Mora’s incredible personality who works magic. These people are perfectionists and will not give up until they are satisfied with their work. Everyone I saw this week all greeted me with smiles and kindness. They speak very good English for people like me who did not know Spanish. Thank you for everything you guys are amazing. I don’t know why anyone who reads this would go anywhere else. Come to Costa Rica Dental team and please stay out of Escazu

Due to a long story, I don't need to go into, I needed extensive dental work. I had an appointment and evaluation with Dr. Lopez in February 2018. At that time I decided to begin my work. I just returned (June) from the completion of my work, which included a bottom All on Four ( five in my case) and upper root canals, crowns and veneers. The results are amazing. Dr. Lopez and the entire staff are kind, gentle, compassionate and explain every step of the way. The entire cost was a small fraction of what the same would have cost in the US. Even with travel expenses, the price was incredible. Not to mention, a great place to recover from any work. I cannot recommend highly enough. Top rating!

If I could give Dr Obando, Maria, Keren, my anesthesiologist Dr Ruiz, and the entire staff at Nova a Six-star rating I would do so. I had many missing and broken teeth and poor periodontal health, so I needed full upper and lower reconstruction including extractions of all my remaining teeth. The process and cost (at least 60% lower than I had been quoted by US dentists) were explained to me in a series of emails over a couple of weeks before my arrival. I had an initial set of X-rays and a detailed consultation with Dr. Obando on Wednesday. He was patient and clear, showed me all of the diagnostic imaging, and didn't recommend anything that was not the best clinical choice while being mindful of my budget. After that, the office arranged for me to get a pre-op and pre-anesthesia clearance from a nearby physician at the CIMA Hospital, and also arranged for an anesthesiologist for my procedure (this is optional, but given the amount of work being done I felt it was worth the extra charge of about $600. I'm very glad I did it.) They brought me in promptly at 10:30 Thursday morning, conducted an internal full mouth 3-D CT scan, and then got to work. Six implants on top and four on the bottom. They sent me home with my daughter 3 hours later, fully equipped with all medications, the med schedule, and recovery instructions. I only used the pain meds for one day as the implant sites were not painful, just irritated after the local wore off, iced my face pretty much around the clock, which was fine, and cycled between Tylenol and ibuprofen for inflammation. Being toothless from Friday to Monday was not as bad as I thought it would be. Smoothies and refried beans got old fast, although the ice cream did not. So Monday I show up for the installation of my immediate load provisional arches and Keren (a wonderful office manager) says "Bruce, your appointment is tomorrow, not today!" That was my mistake -- I was loopy after the sedation and my kid wasn't paying close attention. Dr. Obando happened to come out to reception, learned of the problem, and checked with the dental lab -- my arches were ready and could be delivered in an hour, so he made room on his schedule to set me up. The installation went great -- not painful, pretty quick, and I almost got teary when they showed me the results. Kind of a miracle. In April 2024 I returned to Costa Rica for the permanent Zirconium arches that will outlive me. My permanent all-on-6 and all-on-4 are locked down and loaded. I am amazed that this procedure, which I had been avoiding for years, has been one of the most positive experiences of my life. Dr Obando's work is so incredibly skilful -- the fabrication and fitting of my permanent Zirconium arches was a breeze. I should add that a few weeks after getting my temporaries I broke the bottom arch. This happens and I bear some responsibility for being a little too aggressive chewing with the acrylics. Dr. Obando ordered a new bottom from the lab, had it shipped to Rhode Island, and consulted on the telephone with my local dentist while it was being installed in my mouth. And Nova Dental did not charge me for the replacement -- wow. I feel so lucky to have met Dr. Obando and his staff.
