Porcelain Veneers San Pedro, Costa Rica

I went for porcelain veneers, however, after I got there he also took all the metal fillings out and replaced with white(6). Put a post and crown in an old root canal, bleached the bottoms and replaced my bonding with the porcelain veneers. They did it all in 4 days. He has several dentists working in different areas. Transportation was provided in both ways. The clinic was clean and the equipment very advanced. The dentist all spoke English, the rest of the staff tried. San Jose on the side we were on is a very run down area. Bars and night time security. However, we felt safe but we did not wander. Prices on everything is higher than the States except the dental work. Price was about 1/8 of what I was quoted in the USA.

I cannot say enough good things about Costa Rica Dental Lab. Geovanna, Ceasar, Frederico and our wonderful driver Jose are all very warm and caring people. They are excellent at what they do. I love my new crowns and now smile at everyone whereas before I hated to open my mouth to smile. They matched my old teeth perfectly and gave me a new outlook. As far as professionalism, they don't get any higher rating from me. Dr. Ceasar is an expert! Thank you all FIVE STARS from me!

Four implants, four root canals, bone augmentation, sinus lift, fourteen crowns. I sent my info and X-rays, etc. to Dr. Meza who is UCLA trained and accredited by two US accreditation programs. I have never had a dentist call me before and talk to me on the phone for ten minutes about my teeth and what he thinks should be done. He speaks better English than I do! Then I corresponded by email with Howard, who has an MBA from Johns Hopkins and was a dental tourist ten years ago and just liked Costa Rica and stayed. He was great setting me up with the time and helping me with the lodging, etc. So now to the costs. What would have cost me 55-60K up in the US ended up costing me 18K down there! I am sixty years old and have had extensive dental work in my past here in the US, but have never encountered the professionalism and artistry that Dr. Meza and his staff provided. Their attention to detail was amazing. Dr. Irene Castro is a phenomenon! And the other assistant is a dentist as well (Dr. Santa Maria)! At times, I had three dentists all in the same room working on my teeth (Dr. Meza was my primary dentist with Dr. Castro doing some of the other work). Amazing! I am not a shill or a marketing person. I am a real-life medical professional with thirty-seven years of experience and a business entrepreneur. I did not have to wait more than five minutes to be called back and they went right to work. I had oral surgery to remove a tooth, sinus augmentation, had four implants, and thirteen crowns replaced, four root canals, and more. Excellent in all aspects! Had a great vacation in Manuel Antonio too!
