In Costa Rica, quality dental care and a wide range of treatments are making it possible for more and more people to transform their smile. Here are 7 treatments to improve your smile.

Dental crowns are an effective option for restoring damaged, weakened or discolored teeth. Custom-made to fit your teeth perfectly, crowns can improve both the appearance and functionality of your smile.
At our clinic in Costa Rica, we use high-quality materials, such as porcelain or ceramic, to create crowns that blend in naturally with your existing teeth, providing durability and aesthetics.
This treatment is highly effective because it is long lasting and allows you to regain all the functionality of the tooth that was lost. Usually crowns must be done after a root canal where the nerve is extracted and the tooth must be strengthened.

Dental veneers are thin porcelain shells that are bonded to the front of the teeth to correct cosmetic imperfections, such as stains, chips or irregularities in shape.
Prior to this treatment, you should consult your specialist if they are recommended for your case and if it is a good option to design custom veneers that will improve the appearance of your smile in a fast and lasting way, providing natural results and a perfect smile.
This treatment may depend on the wear and tear of your teeth, since sometimes they must be worn down in order to place the veneers.
