Your Questions,
Answered

How much do dental implants cost in Costa Rica?

Dental implant cost in Costa Rica depends on the number of implants needed, bone condition, implant system, type of restoration, and whether additional procedures are required.

Example implant-related starting prices:

Dental implant placement: from $890
Implant with crown: from $1,490
Bone grafting: from $290
Sinus lift: from $1,490
Panoramic X-ray: from $90

These are example starting prices for implant-related treatment. Final pricing depends on clinical evaluation, X-rays or records, materials selected, and your personalized treatment plan. The internal clinic price sheet supports implant-only, implant-with-crown, bone grafting, sinus lift, and X-ray pricing as implant-related cost references.

Is Costa Rica a good place for dental implants?

Costa Rica can be a strong option for dental implants for patients who want experienced dental care, clear planning, English-speaking support, and fair pricing compared to many U.S. and Canadian treatment costs. Smile Retreat helps international patients explore dental implants in Costa Rica with guidance before they make travel or treatment decisions.

How long do I need to stay in Costa Rica for dental implants?

The length of stay depends on your treatment plan. Some implant cases may involve a shorter visit, while more complex cases such as All-on-4, All-on-6, bone grafting, or full-mouth restoration may require staged treatment or multiple appointments. Smile Retreat helps you understand the expected timeline before you book travel.

Can I get All-on-4 dental implants in Costa Rica?

Yes. All-on-4 and All-on-6 dental implant options may be available in Costa Rica depending on your bone support, oral health, records, and clinical evaluation. Smile Retreat can review your case and help you understand whether a full-arch implant option may make sense for you.

Do I need X-rays before contacting Smile Retreat?

No. You can contact Smile Retreat before you have X-rays. If you already have a panoramic X-ray, CT scan, photos, or a current dental quote, you can share them during your case review. If not, a patient advisor can guide you on what records may be helpful.

Can I speak with someone before booking travel?

Yes. Smile Retreat encourages patients to speak with a patient advisor before booking flights or making a treatment decision. The goal is to help you understand your possible options, records needed, estimated timeline, and next steps before you travel.

Patient experiences

from the U.S. & Canada

As a European I was quite skeptical, but for 17 years I am a client, and I think he is the best dentist in the world. Reasonable pricing, gives always multiple choices for solving issues. Very skilled in all matters, and super equipped in the latest technology. My dentist 🥰

I was nervous about traveling abroad for dental work, but Dr. Tabash and his team made the entire process clear, organized, and safe. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made for my dental health.

First let me state that I am a retired dentist with past practice in several states, including with the US Navy in CA, and in Mo and UT. I saw Dr Tabash in 2023 with several problems: two lower right missing teeth that required dental implants and a missing upper incisor that needed a bridge, as well as a poorly done crown on another upper lateral incisor that needed to be replaced to match the new bridge. All this treatment was done over a period of several days in his modern Escazu facility. Since he has his own dental laboratory on site this facilitated a seamless and quick experience. The quality and fit of the upper bridge was absolutely first rate. The two implants (which were restored 6 months later) were the highest quality on the market and I was actually surprised at the absence of significant pain after the implant procedure. I should also mention that the cost was around 1/3 of the price I would have paid here in NV. As a bonus, while we were in Costa Rica, my wife and I spent five days traveling the country visiting the beaches and rainforest. I certainly highly recommend Dr Tabash and his friendly staff where, by the way, a lack of Spanish was not a problem. My veneers were completed efficiently, and I was back home in 10 days. The quality of care exceeded what I had experienced in the U.S.
