Porcelain Filling Worldwide

I got into a motorcycle accident a year ago and came in with an implant on my lateral tooth and 2 semi-failed gum surgeries in that area. The implant was not one they were familiar with but they successfully managed to make it work. They were able to fix the majority of my gums with another gum graft. Will probably need one more gum surgery from them to perfect the job. I came in with a lot of bone missing. I also got 5 crowns that were made in the clinic within 2 days, which I got to edit a bunch of times waiting 15 minutes in between with perfect work each time. Great place. Highly recommend if you are planning to save money and go overseas for any type of dental work. Such a beautiful place to venture while getting your teeth professionally done as if it were in Canada/USA. The periodontist was great, very knowledgeable and the rest of the doctors were as well. Very welcoming and enjoyable environment, especially from the drivers, receptionists and assistants. Dr Irma Gavaldon was always there to double and triple check that the best possible solution was carried out. Definitely returning to finish and will always go back to them for future larger work. (Unless they suddenly disappear or perform faulty work) A+

There are two reasons that people come to Costa Rica for dental care. They want quality and they want to save money. That's what motivated me to go to Costa Rica. I chose Goodness Dental and am glad I did. At the clinic, I was greeted as if I was a returning war hero. I was given a great cup of coffee and then went into consultation with Aborn and Dr Karen Yurell, the primary care coordinator after they had spent about a half hour reviewing my case. They reviewed my x-rays and then presented me with their findings, options for treatment and a print out of details, including cost. Initially, I was planning on one root canal and a crown at $900. I was quoted $3500 by my dentist back home I ended up with three root canals (two new infections revealed in x-rays), one crown and two posts at a cost of $2300. The U.S. cost for that work would be in the range of $6000-$8000. Almost all of the work was done as I sat in the chair for 4 ½ hours. It was fairly pleasant, the equipment and facilities were of the highest standards. Dr Aborn told me they use U.S. materials, follow U.S. protocols and OSHA infection control standards. Everything looked up to par for me. I visited their new clinic in Escazu recently and was impressed. It is probably the nicest dental clinic I have ever set foot in. They have been good at follow-ups and keep me on their mailing list, which is nice.

I chose this dentist because of a friend’s referral and I’ve been to him quite a few times now. I’ve had general check-ups as well as fillings and today I had my crown replaced. The treatment is quite expensive, but I live in Hong Kong where the cost of living is generally high. I don’t think really think it’s value for money, but he is a very good dentist and we’re very happy with the service. Because it was just a standard filling, I didn’t have to go back for follow-ups, but I have his details so I can return if I feel the need to. The dentist is pretty good. His English is excellent and he has great bedside manner too. The rates are not higher than other private dentists here - I think it’s the standard price.

I think the best way to review my great experience with Costa Rica Dental Services is to paste the four successive posts I made on Facebook to share with my friends. I'm staying in Costa Rica and Panama for four months to avoid winter at home but the primary reason for coming is my dental work. December 6, 2018 I had my initial appointment with Dr Rodolfo Gadea at his Costa Rica Dental Services clinic and I'm highly impressed. Everything about it was excellent. The staff is very efficient and capable and the facility and equipment are state of the art. Better than my former dentist in Rochester, NY and more advanced x-ray technology than Summit Dental in Geneseo. Most importantly, I save $3000 on the cost of the work at home. I go back Monday for the two surgical extractions and bone grafts and will be fitted with a temporary bridge. I'll return in 8 weeks for my permanent 4 unit bridge. I couldn't be more confident and comfortable with this clinic. December 10, 2018 The first phase of my dental work is finished and went very well. Surgical extractions of the remaining foundations of my two upper front centre teeth followed by bone grafts in their place and shaving down the two teeth on either side for the anchor crowns of the four-unit permanent bridge. It was the most involved dental treatment I've ever had. I have a couple of follow-up checks over the next week. I'll return to the clinic in eight weeks, after the grafts have taken, to get my permanent, four crown bridge. It will be full ceramic zirconia which is better quality than the standard porcelain fused to metal crowns that dentists at home proposed. I was highly impressed with every part of the procedure. Dr Gadea is a master, his technicians are skilled and polished pros. My mouth is a bit sore but not a problem and I have medication. Surgical extractions are more involved than regular ones. The Dr. instructed me to consume only cold soft foods and drinks today so I've had several ice creams and smoothies and will enjoy a couple of beers later under doctor's orders. February 13, 2019 Monday I had my first of three appointments this week at Costa Rica Dental Services. Now that the two bone grafts from December have established themselves I needed an impression mould for my permanent four units upper front bridge which I'll receive Thursday. I am also having a three-unit bridge that had badly deteriorated replaced. One of the two supporting teeth required a root canal and both needed extensive buildup to prep for the new bridge. I spent three hours in the chair but it went very well. I am once more fully impressed with the skilful treatment I received from Dr Gadea, Dr Hernandez, and their technicians. The second bridge will cost an additional $2100, including the root canal and buildup, but it had to be done. It raises my total cost to $4300 but the work would have cost well over $10,000 at home so I've saved at least $6000, which is absolutely amazing. I'll report on the final results in a couple of days. February 15, 2019 I had my three and four crown permanent bridges put in yesterday and are very happy with their look, feel, and quality. They are full ceramic Zirconia which is highly durable and better than porcelain fused to metal crowns, which is the material I would have gotten at home. It's great to have my full biting and chewing capability back after more than a year of ongoing problems. Dr Gadea and his team are the best I've ever experienced and I saved $6000. I can't say enough about this clinic!

Originally I was to have 4 implants in my upper jaw with a removable denture but this was not possible as I did not have enough bone thickness. The only option was a conventional denture. I had a positive experience from start to finish. Everyone was very friendly, helpful and professional and I am grateful to them all.

Excellent dentist. Dr Luis Grisollia was efficient and made me a beautiful porcelain crown matching my teeth perfectly. His office although in a very busy area of Guatemala City is prime location and perfectly clean and modern. International standards, I recommend to anybody. Very good overall service.

First of all, I would like to thank Dr. Preiss for giving me back my smile. Dr. Preiss is a true professional in his field, very organised, explains very clearly (in his beautiful British English accent) and will answer all questions patiently until you understand. When he is working on your teeth, he is a perfectionist, and a kind of an artist, just so you can have the most beautiful smile! He is also sincere, warm and has a sense of humour that will make you feel relaxed. What I respect most about him is how he tries to search for the least invasive procedure to achieve the result. In cosmetic dentistry, one is always afraid that the suggested procedure may be unnecessary. I didn’t feel presurred at all when deciding on the procedure. I went to the office only 3 times, and each time the result was beyond my expectation. Let me also add that it wasn’t painful at all. I couldn’t wait to see how great the final result would be, which turned out to be true. My husband was so impressed with my result that he is also considering doing the whitening. If you are skeptical or worried about improving your smile, please just come to consult with him. He really solved my problem for now, and if I will need any maintenance. I have all my confidence in Dr. Preiss to help me keep this beautiful smile. Very professional and fair.

Excellent Denist! Pull eight of my teeth and no pain before or after! I'm very pleased! Very professional! I wI'll come here for all my dental work! Highly recommend Garabito Dental! I'm very happy! Great!!!!! Good prices!

Golden Smile’s a great clinic. I got the results I wanted from my Zoom Teeth Whitening. Everything took an hour and no aftercare was needed. Price was good for the results. The staff were wonderful and the dentist was lovely too. I didn’t experience any pain. There were no communication issues and the dentist even brought some night guards to my hotel.

First, Alan is not only good dentist, he knows how to care for you also. Pick up t the airport, driving to so hotel and so on ... Regarding his treatment I cannot see to much ... he hired a guy to knock me out :-). So I do not know if the cleaning lady or the watchman or Alan did the job. Hahaha ... but it does not matter. The result up to now is excellent,so as a 57 year old guy with problems in as much as 4 tooth at one I can only say: Call the guy. He really know what he is doing! Clean (I am German so do not wonder why this remark comes first), Technical completely up to date - in my opinion no difference to a first wourld dental clinic. If you think about your money and not about your health: It is not really cheap (or it is, compared to other countries - I do not know) but it does not matter at all, because you get what you ask for. So under the line: I only can recommend the doctor and his clinic. Should I be in the same need as I was, I would choose Alan again.

Dental partials. This is a no-nonsense professional dentist. She performs only the work necessary and doesn't try to sell you unnecessary services (unlike the US.A). You are promptly seen and attended to at your scheduled time (also unlike the U.S.A). My work was performed at about 20% of the cost I would have paid for in Florida. Thank You (gracias) Doctor Luz Marely Garcia Alvarez!

Dr. Willemsens was most attentive to my individual requirements and requests. He always explained the treatment he carried out. He offered follow-up check-ups most willingly and without additional costs. His command of languages, especially English, certainly helped my sessions at his cabinet.

This clinic had good reviews and they could give us an early appointment. I took my family to have teeth cleaning and fillings done. It was a hassle-free, excellent value for money experience. The doctors were also competent and professional. The staff were so attentive and explained the entire process. We had a good understanding of the procedures before we went ahead with anything. There were no follow-up visits, but the dentist did suggest we return for the usual 6-month cleaning.

My Wife had some major work done on her teeth which were in really bad shape and the final result is outstanding, far beyond our expectations. All the work was completed in six days. The same treatment in Sweden would cost five times as much and i doubt if the final result would of been as good. My Wife was nervous about the dental work but she was really put at ease by Iva. We were picked up at the airport and taken to the hotel. The driver gave us information about our stay. We were given a phone and were contacted by the clinic about the schedule. Every day Laza came and picked us up and drove us to the clinic and after the treatment back to the hotel or into town. Novi Sad is a nice town and great service and friendly people. To eat out costs next to nothing compared to Sweden.

I went for veneers and couldn’t be happy with the result. Fantatsic finished product. Adam was very professional and overall a great experience.
