Smile
in paradise
Precision dentistry by internationally trained specialists, in one of the most beautiful countries on Earth.
A world-class smile, without giving up the trip of your life.
Every year, thousands of people travel to Costa Rica for high-precision dental care at a fraction of US, Canadian, or European prices, and to live, on the same trip, one of the most beautiful experiences on the planet. At CDCR we deliver both: rigorous clinical care and a destination that embraces you from the first minute.

Why international patients choose us
Three pillars carry every case to where we want it to end: a stable, beautiful and lasting smile.
Internationally trained specialists
Our team has trained in recognized programs across the United States, Europe and Latin America, and continues yearly post-graduate education. We don't improvise. Every clinical decision is backed by evidence and by real training hours.
Cutting-edge technology, the same the best clinics use
3D CBCT, computerized T-Scan occlusion, 8.0x magnification microscope, intraoral digital scanning, Mectron piezoelectric surgery and strict adhesive protocols. Precise diagnosis, minimally invasive interventions and predictable results.
Safe and beautiful results, both, never one over the other
Our obsession is that your smile works perfectly and looks natural. We work with premium ceramics (lithium disilicate, monolithic zirconia) and conservative adhesive techniques: maximum aesthetics with minimum tooth wear.
Why Costa Rica?
Beyond savings: world-class tourism infrastructure, warm people and a country that moves to two words, Pura Vida.
Real savings on your treatment
Same materials, same protocols and same chair time. At a fraction of the price. Your investment goes much further here.
Fully bilingual care
Fluent English and Spanish in every interaction: doctors, assistants, reception and visit coordination. No misunderstandings, no barriers.
A destination you'll fall for
Paradise beaches, active volcanoes, cloud forests, hot springs and the warmest culture in Central America. Recovery feels like vacation.
Precision you can see and feel
Tools don't make the dentist, but they do mark the difference between a good treatment and an excellent one.
3D CBCT
Cone-beam imaging to plan implants, surgeries and endodontics with full nerve mapping visible. No surprises in surgery.
Computerized T-Scan
Digital occlusion analysis that measures, in real time, how your bite distributes force. Ensures your smile functions, not just looks good.
8.0x microscope
Optical magnification for endodontics, restorations and surgery. What the eye can't see, the microscope treats.
Intraoral digital scanning
No more uncomfortable physical impressions. Precise instant 3D models for crowns, veneers and prosthetic planning.
Mectron piezoelectric surgery
Selective ultrasonic technology that cuts bone but respects soft tissue. Far more comfortable recovery.
Premium adhesive ceramics
Lithium disilicate and monolithic zirconia with strict adhesive protocols. Aesthetics that last decades.
