Is Costa Rica only for dental implants?

Dental implants in Costa Rica

Dental care overseas has become more popular over the years as costs in the United States and Canada continue to rise. As a result, many dental clinics around the world have stepped up to meet the need, even surpassing the standards, equipment, and quality there offered. Costa Rica is one of the most popular destinations for dental tourism because it offers excellent products and outstanding care at affordable prices. It is also geographically close to the United States, and its natural beauty allows patients to pair their dental work with a well-spent, relaxing vacation.

Probably the most inaccessible procedure at home is a dental implant. It is certainly the best option to replace one or many missing teeth. It does so individually (without having to involve adjacent teeth), is permanent, and requires simple maintenance. However, a single implant screw can cost $2,000 at home without its final restoration. At Costa Rica you can get the same procedure done at only a fraction of that cost, making what seemed impossible something accessible.

However, dental care in Costa Rica offers much more than only dental implants. If you need other procedures, you might as well benefit from the advantages of getting it here. You will also be able to get the very best quality at prices you can afford. Here are some examples:

Dental crowns in Costa Rica

Dental crowns are a common procedure. At Costa Rica, you can get high-end, full-porcelain crowns for less than the cost of basic metal-porcelain crowns in the United States. These are not only more biocompatible but they are also much more natural-looking.

Cosmetic work

Cosmetic work in the form of bondings or porcelain veneers are also a great deal in Costa Rica. Dentists in the United States in general simply do not count with the time to perform such a meticulous work as resin bondings. Truly, a cosmetic dentist who successfully pulls out a beautiful bonding is truly an artist, and as such, he must be willing to offer not only talent but also time and dedication.  The same can be said of porcelain veneers. Costa Rican dentists excel due to their personalized and caring attention as well as their expertise. Not to mention the great savings involved!

Root Canals

Root canals are a great way to prolong the life of a tooth whose nerve has been infected. It consists of removing the pulp that contains several nerve endings and filling the canal with a special material. This is a delicate albeit non-invasive procedure that should be performed by a specialist. Because of this, their cost at home is generally astronomical. Getting a root canal can save your tooth, and this can be possible at Costa Rica.

Dental Surgery

There are many kinds of surgery that can restore your teeth or bone levels. Sinus lifts, block grafts, and bone regularizations are surgeries that will help prepare your bone for dental implants when density is deficient. Perio surgeries treat advanced gum disease by removing plaque beneath the gumline. Gingivectomies and crown lengthening are minor surgical procedures that help mold your gums for restorative or cosmetic purposes. All of these procedures are performed by experienced surgeons at comparatively low prices and you can benefit from them at Costa Rica.
