Crowns are dental restorations also known as “caps,” made of natural looking porcelain that fit over the teeth. Crowns may be necessary because of broken fillings, fractures or chips, or sensitive teeth. Many Costa Rica porcelain crowns patients also receive crowns to improve the appearance of natural teeth that are malformed, misaligned or discolored.

IMPLANTS
|
Costa Rica Dental Implants
If you are missing one or more teeth and would like to restore your ability to smile, speak and eat with comfort and confidence, then dental implants may be right for you.
Dental implants are a safe and medically proven method of replacing a single tooth or multiple missing teeth.
Dental implants are biologically compatible metal posts that are surgically placed in your jaw bone underneath your gums by acclaimed Costa Rica dental implants specialist Dr. Alejandro Mora Lasso. During a healing period, the bone fuses to the implant post. A dental crown or replacement tooth is attached to this implant post resembling your natural tooth both in appearance as well as function.
- Replacing several teeth with dental implants
- For Costa Rica dental implants patients, the replacement of numerous teeth is done in the same manner as the replacement of a single tooth, except that several dental implants are positioned, replacing several missing roots. Next, porcelain crowns or dental bridgework are attached to the implants. Dental implants are beneficial because they support the bridge. This helps surrounding teeth, which would otherwise be used as support for the dental implants Costa Rica patient’s bridgework.
- Can dental implants replace ALL of my teeth?
Yes, some Costa Rica dental implants patients use this method to have all of their teeth replaced. The procedure is similar to the replacement of a single tooth, the only difference being that more dental implants are used and more crowns are attached to their abutments. |
INLAYS & ONLAYS
|

BRIDGES
|
Dental Bridges in Costa Rica
A bridge is a fixed appliance designed to replace one or more missing teeth in the most natural looking way possible. It is the treatment of choice if you have gaps from lost teeth and you want to avoid a removable appliance.
Like dental crowns, bridges are made of natural looking porcelain. Costa Rica dental bridges patients often say that this dental work feels natural and comfortable in the mouth.
Bridges can replace posterior teeth as well as front teeth. |
FILLINGS
|
Tooth Fillings – Dental Cosmetics Costa Rica
Most people need a filling at one time or another. It’s one of the most common restorations performed on damaged teeth or when a tooth is partially decayed or chipped. A filling is just what it sound like, it fills in the damaged space in the tooth and prevents further decay or breakdown from advancing.
The natural looking tooth colored or “white” fillings are a durable and beautiful alternative to the regular mercury silver fillings, which are unsightly and turn black as they age. |
TOOTH WHITENING
|

SCALING

ROOT CANALS
|
Costa Rica Root Canal
Root canal treatment is a routine dental procedure which is needed when the blood or nerve supply of a tooth (called the pulp) becomes infected due to tooth decay or injury.
