My family dentist was not happy when I told him I needed my dental records. He asked why. I said I was considering traveling to Costa Rica. Costa Rica dental work is known for quality and inexpensive dentistry. If you are like me and millions of other Americans who can’t afford the rising cost of dental treatment in the United States you may need to consider the quality Costa Rica dental work provided in this small and friendly country.
My family dentist with much reluctance gave me my records and x-rays. Although I felt bad, I knew it was the best thing I could do for my health and my pocket book. With the cost of Costa Rica dental work 50% to 75% less than the dentist in the United States I was able to get all my teeth fixed in one trip.
With today’s simple to use web sites like mydentaltrip.com it has never been easier to find that Costa Rica dentist that has the specialty practice to suite your needs and budget. I found my dentist in San Jose, the major city in Costa Rica. Sharing my dental records with him, he was able to review and put together a treatment plan and a schedule for me. This was a great help in the planning of my dental vacation, which included many site seeing activities between dental visits to his practice. I spent seventeen days in Costa Rica because I made the trip a vacation as well as a dental trip. With the cost of Costa Rica dental work, flight, lodging, food and vacation expense I still saved money over my family dentist.
Returning home I wondered where I stood with my local dentist. I think deep down he understood because it was the only way I could have a healthy mouth as well as a great smile.
Today, it’s been five years post treatment and I can say that I am very happy with my Costa Rica dental work.
