Sedation for dental treatments San José

From the moment I arrived in Costa Rica, the Urzola team cared for me very well. A driver greeted me at the airport and took me to the hotel the team recommended. It was near their clinic, very clean with an excellent restaurant. The Urzola clinic itself had all the latest dentistry equipment and an on-site lab where crowns were rapidly made. Dr. Urzola gave excellent care to my need for implants, even finding a way to insert an implant that other dentists told me lacked adequate bone. Urzola’s bone-grafting technique solved that problem. Post operative meds were sent to the clinic. A thorough explanation of post-op procedures and care were given. English was spoken by the attendants at the clinic which made my limited Spanish unnecessary. I highly recommend this implant clinic, especially for those wanting to save thousands of dollars on the implanting procedure.

I can't say enough about these folks. On-time, within budget, excellent service and I have the best teeth I could ever ask for!! The cost was very reasonable, the experience was the best it could be and I am so happy with my new teeth, I just can't stop smiling!!! The process was easy, too. Jumped on a plane, and there was a driver waiting for me at the airport (on a Sunday!) who took me to my hotel. Monday I was in the chair, and by Friday I had fantastic teeth. I had lots of time available to explore Costa Rica. All in all, this was a fantastic process, I would recommend Prisma Dental to any one, even my Mom! :)

Costa Rica Dental Clinic Lab was incredible! I traveled here from the U.S. I needed a root canal and crown. The pricing was great. The staff speak English and are very friendly and accommodating. They made it such an easy and pleasant experience. I would highly recommend this dental clinic to anyone and everyone.

Accompanied by my wife I first attended the Dr. Marco Muñoz Cavallini International Dental Clinic in January 2013. Because my teeth were in terrible shape I wanted to have a full restoration that would provide me with two arches of new implant-supported teeth. It was agreed before I arrived that I should allow for one week per arch so I made arrangements to stay for two weeks. A treatment plan was agreed on day one but when I was being prepared for my first surgery session Dr. Marco became concerned that my heart was beating irregularly. He was so concerned that he sent for para-medics and I ended up being taken to the hospital emergency room where I was seen by a cardiologist. Although I was discharged later the same day Dr. Marco explained to me that it would not be possible for me to undergo any oral surgery until my heart condition had been treated. During this whole episode, I was accompanied by Anna, a bilingual member of the dental clinic’s staff, who took care of all of the arrangements. She did a wonderful job. We (my wife and I) returned to the USA the next day. My heart condition was subsequently diagnosed and I was required to have a heart pacemaker which was fitted in July 2013. In September my doctor cleared me for oral surgery and we returned to the dental clinic at the end of November. We stayed for two weeks and I received complete new upper and lower teeth consisting of 27 crowns supported by 10 implants. Some of my natural teeth were extracted and others ground down. My permanent new teeth were fitted on the last Friday of my stay and we returned to the USA the next day. All the surgery was performed under local anaesthetic and was virtually pain-free. The most uncomfortable part of the treatment was the taking of the impressions for the temporary dentures and the permanent teeth and the pressing into a place of the new teeth this being due to the pressure that had to be exerted to ensure a good fit and a strong bonding of the cement. My new teeth felt quite comfortable straight away and have been completely problem-free for the 7 years since I received them. The only money that I have spent at the dentist has been for routine check-ups. I cannot be categorical but it is my belief that I would have spent more money repairing and maintaining my “old” teeth than I spent on acquiring my new teeth. With regard to the way the clinic operates, as other patients have noted, appointment times are virtually meaningless but nevertheless in my case whatever was scheduled to take place on any given day always did indeed take place on that day but much time was inevitably spent waiting. We stayed in the “on-site’ accommodation which is relatively austere but totally adequate and of course very convenient. The clinic is located within walking distance of the centre of San Jose. Although it is impossible to project the future, based on my experience to date, I count my decision to become a patient of the Dr. Marco Clinic one of the best I have made and I recommend this clinic without reservation.

My words cannot do justice to describe the impeccable level of service I received from Dr. Oriana Gonzalez and her lovely staff. I had a complete crown reconstruction so I was already anxious about having to get the procedure done. I knew though I had chosen the right place from the second I walked in. The office was very clean and sterile. This helped ease my anxiety especially considering the elevated risks we face every day. I knew I was safe here and being in good hands put my mind at ease. They worried about all the important details and even ensured my transportation was taken care of each day of the procedure. I can definitely sign off at this point that Dr. Gonzales and her staff are the professionals that you should be using. Now I am definitely confident in my smile. Well worth the trip from the United States.
