The Ultimate Guide to Dentists in Tamarindo






Introduction


Last fact-checked: 29 February 2020

Our dentists in Tamarindo offer you outstanding dentistry in Costa Rica’s top surfing destination where you can take advantage of low prices to obtain good-quality dental care and enjoy a vacation simultaneously.

Once a quiet fishing village, Tamarindo has now grown up into one of the areas most popular and developed towns. While it is the most developed beach in Guanacaste province, and there is no shortage of bars, hotels and restaurants, there is much more to this place than just partying.

The beach is appealing to both adults and kids alike, and some of the best restaurants in the country can be found here. Prices are low due to the fierce competition, and for exploring the attractions of the northern peninsula it makes a convenient hub.

The Parque Nacional Marion Las Baulas, of which Tamarindo is part of, is just north and provides the opportunity for visitors to see leatherback turtles who come ashore to lay eggs here. The Tamarindo National Wildlife Refuge comprises of protected forest, mangroves and estuaries which provides fascinating insights into the country’s wildlife and offers interesting excursions, including canoe tours of coastal habitats.

From the buzzing center of Tamarindo, it is easy to experience nature with miles of pristine beaches, breathtaking views and assorted wildlife. From the Tamarindo estuary, you can cross the Rio Matapalo in small boats, and you can walk around rocky headlands to find surf spots and tide pools for bathing.

Ongoing developments have not changed Tamarindo’s laidback vibe, and whatever floats your boat you’re sure to find just the thing here. If you are visiting for dental work you’ll find there are plenty of ways to relax and recuperate – and our dentists in Tamarindo to be highly-professional, skilled and accommodating.

Where Is Tamarindo?


Tamarindo is a town in the province of Guanacaste, located on the Nicoya Peninsula on the northern Pacific coast of Costa Rica.

Why Visit a Dentist in Tamarindo?


Tamarindo is the ultimate beach escape–miles of beautiful white sand and surf surrounds this coastal town, and despite its popularity, it still retains a carefree ambiance that makes it so appealing.

For patients looking for a typical dental vacation, the array of amenities and facilities in the town means you know you will have everything you need at your fingertips, which may be important if you think you won’t be up to doing much for a day or two after your treatment.

Dental patients from Canada and the US who are looking for affordable dental options that aren’t long-haul choose this part of the world because of its accessibility–and they can fly into either San Jose, Costa Rica’s capital city or Liberia in the north. This may be of particular importance if you are having extensive dental work, for example implants, which usually require more than one trip.

The prices offer exceptional savings on dental treatments at home for many patients from English-speaking countries, including the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand:

Where to stay?


Tamarindo offers plenty of accommodation across all budgets. From 5* luxury to self-catering apartments or from beachside to mountainside or ecolodge to spa you’ll find something that is right for you.

Is It Safe?


Tamarindo is safe to visit and there are no US government travel advisory warnings for any part of Costa Rica.

Is the Quality of Care the Same as Back Home?


Costa Rica has a good reputation for dental care and there is no question that from simple procedures, including fillings, check-ups or teeth cleaning then you’ll have no shortage of competent dentists in Tamarindo to choose from. However, it is always wise to do some of your own research to find a reliable dentist.  If you are considering complex procedures to combat a problem such as advanced periodontitis, where numerous procedures including bone grafts and dental implants may be required, then it is definitely worth your while to choose a dentist carefully.

If you find a trustworthy Costa Rican dentist your care will be just as good (if not better) than what you would receive at home. Of course, finding a reliable dentist is not always that easy but there are ways you can find information out, just by searching on the internet.

These days people are willing to leave reviews online about everything, and that includes the service they have received from doctors and dentists. A quick search on the internet for your dentist may throw up all sorts of information, as well as reviews.

Of course, there may not be much out there, and even so, how do you know that it is reliable? This is where we come in at Dental Departures. We perform criminal and legal background checks on all our verified dentists, and we list qualifications as well as professional memberships and affiliations on our website. Furthermore, we show you high-resolution photographs and maps of the clinics, virtual tours and real patient reviews. Check out some of our clinics in Tamarindo, such as Dental Clinic OCI Tamarindo.

What’s more, we are contactable pretty much 24 hours a day by toll-free phone, email or online chat – and our Customer Care Team are really helpful and friendly and will always answer your questions honestly.

What Happens IfSomething Goes Wrong? Is My Dental Care Guaranteed?


We’re pleased to say that all of our clinics provide warranties and guarantees on their work – and that includes the materials they use too. The length of the warranty varies from clinic to clinic and also depends on what procedure you have had done (dental implants, for example, usually have the longest warranties).

Thankfully, something going wrong is a rare occurrence for our patients, but if it does, it will be remedied free-of-charge by your dentist in Tamarindo. Obviously, the warranty or guarantee only covers your dental work. If you have to pay additional travel and accommodation charges to return to your dentist you should look to taking out one of the low-cost insurance policies we have arranged for this eventuality, which will give you total peace-of-mind.

Yes – all of our clinics provide warranties or guarantees on their work – both the work the dentist carries out, as well as on the materials used in the work (eg. On your dentures, crowns, veneers, etc). They are usually for a minimum of one year, but often for much longer.

Do I Need to Speak Spanish?


English is spoken widely in Tamarindo–it’s not called TamaGRINGO for nothing!

What Payment Methods are Accepted by Most Dental Offices?


US cash is accepted universally by our dentists but it is best to check the individual listings on our website to see what other payment methods are accepted if you are anticipating paying some other way. Many clinics also accept checks (both traveler and personal), bank transfers and debit/credit cards, although debit card transactions may attract a small processing fee of between 3-4%.

Is My US or Canadian Dental Insurance Accepted?


It isn’t likely your dentist in Tamarindo will be able to accept your US or Canadian dental insurance but check with your provider before you travel as they may allow you to claim for ‘out-of-network’ expenses. You will still need to pay your expenses up-front but will be able to reclaim them upon your return home if your insurance company allows this. Make sure to get the appropriate documentation to bring with you to your appointment.

When Is the Best Time to Visit One of Our Dentists?


Our dentists are open all year round and you will find the weather in Tamarindo to be pleasant whenever you visit.

Is It Wheelchair-Accessible?


Newer hotels will be wheelchair accessible and certain parts of town but it’s not a given that you will find accessibility easy everywhere. Tico’s are friendly and helpful though and you won't be short of a helping hand if you need it.

Our dentists are all wheelchair-friendly with many offering pick-up services from your hotel. Speak to our Customer Care team if you are worried about accessibility as they will always find a way to get you to one of our dentists.

What is the Downside? What Should I Know about Visiting?


Insect bites are a hazard, particularly in the country and wildlife areas so it is recommended you take repellent containing DEET and also something that you can apply to stop the itching if you do get bitten.

Be aware of rip tides and strong currents. If you do get caught in the best thing to do is to let the current take you beyond the breaks, where it will then dissipate. You can then swim parallel to the beach and let the waves bring you back in. This is sound advice as many people that drown after being caught in rip tides exhaust themselves trying to battle against it. Relax, go with the flow and you’ll get back.

What Else Is There to Do in the Area?


For lovers of the great outdoors Tamarindo has it all.

Surfing is one of the major pastimes here and there are plenty of spots along the coast if this is your passion, or if you are a complete beginner. The Playa Grande is popular, regardless of skill level. Tamarindo also hosts a number of international surf competitions throughout the year, and there are plenty of visitors from across the world who come to town to take part.

Tamarindo beach is also one of the world’s hot spots for sportfishing. Boats can be chartered to accommodate any size group and includes tackle, bait and refreshments. Full-day trips also include an onboard lunch.

On the water, sailing tours are popular –to remote beaches or how about a sunset cruise? Or a snorkeling trip to see tropical fish and other creatures? The abundant waters of the Pacific have plenty to offer, and there are also SCUBA diving opportunities.

On land, you will discover a variety of activities to engage in, including bicycling, which is a national sport in Costa Rica. You will find shops that offer cycle rentals and tours in Tamarindo.

Adrenalin junkies can get off the beaten path with an ATV tour, but If you prefer four legs to four wheels there are horseriding treks through the forest, or cantina tours.

You can experience the canopy of the tropical rainforest with zip-line tours. There’s a variety of destinations available and the views and panoramas you’ll see from high in the canopy will certainly get your heart pumping.

Golfing enthusiasts won’t be disappointed with courses designed by Robert Trent Jones II and Mike Young just monutes from Tamarindo. There’s nothing like playing in the lush, tropical surroundings with spectators that include parrots, armadillos and monkeys.

Of course, it isn’t too far to get out of the town and into the wilds of the Costa Rican countryside with Volcanoes and mountains to explore, as well as the national parks.

SCOOTER HIRE:

There are scooter hire places in Tamarindo if this is how you want to get about.

These guys won't let you down. Very good customer skills too.

I was there 3 weeks ago and had my lower jaw done. The first contact was very good. After I sent the X-ray images to the clinic, very easily via WhatsApp, specific questions were asked to assess the current situations. All eventualities were discussed/mentioned. I then received a cost plan very quickly. The appointment arrangement also worked perfectly. Flights booked, that’s it. When we arrived in Antalya (due to a delay at 3 a.m.) we were personally picked up and taken to the hotel despite the delay. On the morning of the operation we were picked up by the driver in good time. The treatment that followed was the best treatment I have ever received from a dentist. Since I am an “anxious patient”, I was immediately given something to calm me down. Then, on the chair, a spray was sprayed into my mouth before the injections, which numbed everything a bit so that I hardly noticed the injections. In total the treatment lasted 3 hours. I really didn't feel any pain at any time. You just have to “endure” the noises and vibrations. I was then given painkillers and antibiotics and taken back to the hotel. When the anesthesia wore off I only had slight pain. In the evening I was able to eat mashed potatoes and fried eggs. I don't use the temporary solution that was made. Since I also had bone augmentation, no solid temporary solution could be used. Now I'll wait until January and then the teeth will finally be firmly attached to the implants. So I can recommend this clinic without reservation.

Top clinic! Very friendly and competent staff! The clinic is close to a smaller mall and a weekly market. Waiting times for appointments were always very short. Very cheap prices.

One word …fantastic! From the moment I got in touch with them via Instagram I was made to feel at ease , not rushed and above all their overall professionalism, I was picked up from the airport and was instantly made to feel special by our driver , on arriving at the beautiful clinic we where greeted by jada (who is awesome) and the rest of the team and my dentist who was so patient with me and worked tirelessly to achieve what I wanted , everything was explained regarding my treatment and I was constantly reassured through every step of the process , I had 24 crowns and I couldn’t be happier with them , anything I asked for they did with great professionalism, I highly recommend medic Antalya

Just got back from Antalya in turkey with my temporary fixed dentures after have the first part of my “All on 6” treatment. These guys have been amazing with myself and my two friends who both had veneer crowns. I can’t recommend them enough if you plan on getting any dental work done over in turkey. Once I’ve finished my treatment in about 6 months time I will leave another review or update this one. UPDATE!!! Now completely finished my all on 6 treatment and wow. I have an amazing smile. Still the best place to go I’m my opinion. All the staff are very friendly. VIP transfers. Amazing dental facilities. I would recommend them to anyone who was looking to get some dental work.
