Dental Implants San José

I received better care at Urzola Dentistry than in my 42 years of twice-a-year dental visits in the United States. From my first interaction with Beatrize at the front desk, to Jose who handled airport transportation, to the dental assistants and Dr. Urzola himself, every part of the experience was exceptional. The team was prompt, organized and extremely thorough. From the initial quote to hotel arrangements and airport pickup, everything happened exactly as planned. Dr. Urzola spent about 40 minutes with me in his office—not in the dental chair—clearly explaining my options and the details of each procedure. He welcomed questions, listened carefully, and has impeccable bedside manner. I appreciated that other specialists, including an endodontist, were on staff that day. I had three implant screws placed and a tooth extracted, yet experienced minimal pain or inflammation the following day. The entire experience was impeccable—and the cost, being about one-quarter of what I was quoted in the U.S. was simply icing on the cake.

Dr. Fernanda Dra Cruz and the team at Dental Avenue provide exceptional care in a thoroughly professional setting. The staff is consistently welcoming and efficient, creating a calm, organised environment. Dr. Cruz’s expertise is evident in her precise, thoughtful approach to treatment, and the practice’s investment in advanced medical equipment ensures diagnostics and procedures are both accurate and comfortable. It’s a practice that prioritises clinical excellence without sacrificing patient comfort—exactly what you hope to find in quality dental care.

My wife and I came to Star Dental because a good friend recommended them and we had the opportunity to travel together. Star arranged to have us picked up at the airport and transportation to dental visits. The staff and doctors were amazing. We immediately felt welcome. Everyone was compassionate and caring. We had implants and cavities filled at a fraction of the cost in Florida plus a wonderful vacation in beautiful Costa Rica. We highly recommend Star Dental. The dental clinic was actually more modern and advanced then our dentist back home. It's worth the trip!

I have been to a lot of dentists in my life and I have to say that Costa Rica Dental Clinic is by far the best. You will not find more professional staff that really do everything possible to make a normally unpleasant process much more bearable.

If you're ever in need of a fantastic dentist, I highly recommend coming to San Jose, Costa Rica! After losing my front teeth and neighboring tooth in an accident at age 11, I've undergone numerous operations and tried almost every possible dental treatment by age 37. I've had to replace my front teeth every 10 years or so, especially during my younger years when I was still growing. I've been with Dr. Jehoavas Rafa for a couple of years now, and he's the first dentist who not only does a technically great job but also considers aesthetics - which is super rare, believe me! Highly recommend Dr. Jehoavas Rafa for professional and cosmetic treatment - he's one of the best dentists I've ever experienced!!

We learned of Prisma Dental through International Living during one of their conferences in Costa Rica. They gave a presentation and I spoke with one of their representatives at their table during the conference. My husband and I both needed dental work. His was going to be extremely expensive in the US, so we took the leap and made an appointment online with Luis at Prisma Dental and traveled back to Costa Rica. My husband was extremely apprehensive and wanted complete sedation, but Dr Nadine Rubinstein was so gentle that she was able to remove 13 tooth roots with just numbing. He had no pain during the procedure or that evening. By the next day they had his very natural looking dentures ready! He will be back in 6 months for implants. I needed bonding on my lower front teeth and a cracked back molar fixed. I, too, was apprehensive, but with a mild sedative, Dr. Carolina Nunez built up the back molar and bonded nine lower teeth - all painlessly. The next day, she permanently cemented the new back molar. One can't even tell I had any work done - each bonding is seamless. From arranging for the appointment with Luis to being incredibly kind when we walked in the front door - topped off with the terrific work they did, it was a great experience - and the cost was a fraction of what we would have paid in the US.
