Costa Rica Dental Experiences

The first step in starting to solve a problem is to understand what caused it. I f you are going to read this article, it means that you have noticed one of the symptoms of pyorrhea and you want to know how you can do to solve the problem as quickly as possible. Something interesting that I noticed has been that the average patient when it comes into contact with us, HAS NO IDEA of what caused the loss of his teeth. I imagine that by now you must be asking yourself, "Is it important to know that?" Well it's very simple.  Bleeding gums, tartar on teeth, periodontal pockets, fissured tongue, gums that gradually retract; t hese are just some of the alarm bells that can indicate the development of one of the most devastating diseases of the mouth. If you have ever experienced even one of these symptoms, or if you suspect something, but you are not sure, then read on because I will explain below what are the devastating effects of pyorrhea (also called periodontit

Have you ever thought about choosing a dentist abroad to treat your teeth? Dental tourism, as we have often written in the blog, is a phenomenon that has taken hold for several years now. More and more people are willing to and one of the countries, most chosen by North Americans and Canadians, it's Costa Rica.  It is the desire of many patients, but a fatal mistake is to jump on the first foreign dentist who is online and blindly relies on his care. It is the first step to take: find dentists that operate according to the American Dental Association (ADA) regulations on hygiene, safety, and reliability of tools and materials used.  And Patients must be more cautious now during these times of Pandemia!! In times of crisis like these last nasty pandemic, patients are looking for quality dental services at lower prices than in their own country . In addition, there is the advantage of a holiday abroad, and in this, they see greater benefits: they combine dental care w

If you have this in your mind, you are probably looking for implantology and intend to find a good quote for 4-6 implants.  In this article, you will discover all the information you need to understand the costs of implantology and to choose the best proposal. The connection between price and type of installation Dental Implant sets can be compared to common screws; if we decided to buy some in a hardware store, probably at our request of the type: "I would like 6 screws", the shopkeeper would reply: "We have so many, what length, step, thickness, and quality do you need?" This problem is much more complex when it comes to titanium dental implants. In fact, each patient has different bone anatomy that requires the use of different types of implants. Some types are produced exclusively by certain companies and it is common that there are significant price fluctuations between different plants and manufacturing companies. This could be enough to understand t

I wrote dozens of articles about the dental experience and I realized now that I forgot the first reason people go to the dentist! --- TOOTHACHE! So let's try to explain what can happen to you in your mouth if it goes wrong!  I think that's why you're documenting yourself on the web and reading this article. Basically, the types of toothache for which you go to the dentist in an emergency are 5: Pain from caries near a live nerve Pain from an abscess or acute apical periodontitis Gum pain The pains from cracks in the teeth Muscle pains Ok, two are not Toothache, but I have to write TOOTHACHE often, otherwise you will not find this article when you look on Google for Toothache and so I went ahead because I wrote toothache 4 times in 3 lines. Before talking about toothache (and we are 5 times in 4 lines), however, let's debunk a myth. CAVITIES DON'T HURT ... unless they are very large or that they create a hole in which food can enter,

Do you get the vomit reflex every time you get the impression? Can't stand that terrible taste of the impression material? Through this article, you will dive into the world of fingerprints, the new frontier of dentistry. The first question that arises is: "why to use something digital?"  The answer is the same one that you would give yourself asking yourself why to use a smartphone, a computer, digital photography, or GPS. All of us, whether we like it or not, we are catapulted into the digital age. Intraoral Fingerprint Scanner Digital technology has changed the dental profession so radically that in the not too distant future, the art of taking conventional impressions will no longer be so necessary. In fact, spoons for fingerprints and related materials are increasingly being replaced, especially in the most advanced dental practices, by the use of the scanner. Conventional Impressions vs. Intraoral Scanner Normally, when a traditional impression
