Dental fillings are a relatively inexpensive dental treatment, compared to other dental procedures. If you are visiting Costa Rica on holiday you can make great savings by having your fillings done on holiday. Getting some dental treatment carried out while you are on holiday is probably not something you have thought about. 

However, if you consider that it may cost you less than two-thirds of the price at home then it may be something to bear in mind.

Just a few hours of discomfort will enable you to continue your holiday activities, while knowing that you have saved yourself a little money and taken care of your general dental maintenance should be enough to make you feel good about having taken time out of your holiday to get them done.

In the long term, a few hours out of your holiday can save you lots of time and trouble further down the line, as well as your bank balance. Fillings are a simple way of ensuring your dental health is kept in check – neglect this aspect of your care routine and you could be storing up more problems for the future.

We have vetted our dentists, ensuring their qualifications and experience are up to standard, and we also visit our dental clinics. Many of them put some of the clinics at home to shame, with new, state-of-the-art buildings and modern dental technologies being customary in many.

One of the other reasons you may want to have your fillings done in Costa Rica is if you are considering the replacement of amalgam fillings, for either health or esthetic reasons. At home, replacing a number of fillings can soon start to mount up cost-wise, but in Costa Rica, you can have three fillings for the price you would pay for just one filling at home.

‘Indirect’ fillings take longer – mainly because there is usually a large portion of decay to be removed, and you may need a crown to be fitted. In these circumstances impressions of your teeth will be made and sent to the lab after removing the areas of decay. 

A temporary crown will be fitted until your permanent crown is ready and you will return a few days later to have the temporary removed and the permanent one fitted. Indirect fillings usually require a number of appointments over the course of a week.

Dental fillings start from around $155 in the US, but only $55 in Costa Rica.

Composite fillings will give you that tooth-colored finish and last between 5 and 7 years. However, using good quality materials such as porcelain may mean your fillings lasting as long as 15 years - and this is still a fraction of the cost of porcelain fillings at home.
