Dental Implants in Costa Rica
If you have recently lost a tooth, you probably understand the importance of replacing it. Dental implants are devices designed to replace missing teeth in a functional and aesthetic way. Like natural teeth, they have a root that supports the visible part (what we commonly know as the tooth), and in this procedure it is called a crown.
Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Dental implants are a reliable and advanced solution for replacing missing teeth. If you have lost one or more teeth, implants offer the significant advantage of eliminating the need for removable prostheses. Implant-supported restorations are fixed, secure, and free from clasps or removable components, providing a natural look and feel.
For individuals missing all their teeth, implant-supported prosthetic solutions can restore full oral function and aesthetics. These fixed options deliver exceptional stability and comfort, enabling you to enjoy everyday activities like eating and speaking with ease and confidence. Transform your quality of life with a solution designed to meet your specific needs.

How Does Dental Implant Treatment Work?
Dental implant treatment allows the recreation of lost natural teeth, achieving an aesthetic appearance that can match or even surpass that of the original teeth. Implants are composed of a titanium root, a biocompatible, resistant and completely safe material for the patient.
Is the Procedure Painful?
The experience of the procedure varies from patient to patient. However, thanks to modern surgical techniques and advanced anesthesia, most patients tolerate the process satisfactorily and successfully.
What is the Success Rate of Dental Implants?
Dental implants have a success rate of over 95%, one of the highest among dental treatments. This remarkable success is the result of more than 50 years of research and technological advances in the field.
Advantages of Dental Implants
- They preserve bone: They help prevent bone loss and maintain facial structure.
- Stability and comfort: They do not move when eating or speaking, unlike removable dentures.
- Protection of natural teeth: They do not require modifying neighboring teeth.
- Natural appearance: They perfectly imitate the aesthetics and functionality of the original teeth.
- Long-lasting: With proper care, they can last a lifetime.
