Hey Maximus was this something you wanted done or that they told you was needed? I've had only 1 CR dentist out of 5 (Dr. Chen) NOT insist that I replace all my old fillings... 2 dentists in the states also advised against it, unless the old filling is a problem or cosmetically unappealing. I'm starting think that convincing gringos to unnecessarily replace all our old fillings is a common scam in CR.


Paco, Most of my metal fillings were cracked and actually starting to break apart. Almost all of the back ones. I knew this beforehand. I have to admit a few in my sides of the front of my mouth didn't have to get done but they were small and I just figured why not do those too. Two good things about having no metal in my mouth is my teeth aren't sensitive to the cold anymore and I started to eat pu*sy again! :D

I recommend 90201. Three implants, three crowns, done very nicely. The owner is American. They provide crowns to over 500 dental practices in the USA. They have 29 technicians on site making crowns. You cannot get faster turnaround anywhere in Costa Rica. They also have some very sexy employees. :P
You recently mentioned having to return to CR to get those crowns replaced or repaired, what happened?

Hey Guys,

I would like to get some extensive dental implant work done in January.

Any advice on a good implant dentist in San Jose?

Really appreciate your help! Thank you!

Had a number of implants done; good results; professional practice - call early to make an appointment; leave extra time - if they estimate the work will take 4 days, plan on 7; discuss over the phone the type of work you want done; have recommended to others who also reported good results - practice is about 40% tico and 70% USA:

Dr Marcos Munoz Cavallini

Tel: 506 2222 8443 or 2255 3386

http://www.aestheticdentistrycr.com

e mail cavallinidentist@hotmail.com

I think you will be well served and happy with the work :)


I have been using Dr Cavallini for years and am very happy with his practice. for me - the doctor has replaced one implant free that did not hold and has waved cost for tooth extraction when putting in an implant ( has to be done at same time)

I did some at 90210 and started off good, staff is pretty good, but then the owner who says he's a Michigan gringo but talks like he's from Vancouver and wears cowboy boots like he's from Texas, (he ain't no gringo) changed the price on me twice. 2nd time I showed him what he had written out for me 3 months earlier--he forgot. Biggest problem, can't reach him from the states to come up with a plan and a timetable to accomodate me so I am not stuck in SJ the whole time when I only need to be there two times in a week. Very arrogant on top, talks down to you when you ask a reasonable question. Phuck him, but he's got a following on this board.



...i dont know the person who sent me this pm..

Weerdo, you can clip out a handle on a PM and paste my handle on any PM you want and then post it as if I said it in a PM, but the only 2 posts I have made on 90210 just happened to be in this very thread both on Nov1. I guess you forgot to read the thread. I'll save you the trouble but here's what I posted in both:

"When I was there last, it was about the time Honeybee had posted that her temps fell out in her soup. I asked Dr Yelda Fernandez, everyone's favorita dentista at 90210 about it, and she said no way, they use the same cement as for the perm's... so so much for Honeybee's post. She hasn't posted since.

Regarding the burned gums, the poster offered photo's and I think I read about another poster who got his gums burned there.

I have been there 7 or 8 times. I like the place and the docs. The prices are higher then some of the other good guys mentioned (Cavellini e.g.) but you are not sitting there for two hours waiting. That would drive me nuts.

The location isn't the best, about 45 mins or more back to the gulch if you get done around 5pm as I often did, not fun if you've been in the chair 3 or so hours and had major work done, but not as long at other times. The offices are immaculate and very modern. They'll give you as much novacaine as you want/require but not gas--I think the dental law is different in CR then the US when it comes to that. But I different suffer all that much during the worst things I had done there.

You'll deal with a mix of Gringo's and Tico's, the docs all are Ticos or Ticas, but their English is B+ to A."

#2:"Me too, since April, no problem other then hard to floss under. One mm too low? Who knows.

But their choice of a distant office location wasn't very smart when they are catering to greengos staying downtown"
end.


So Paranoido Weerdo, the guy who has posted that he was raised in 4 different countries but forgot they were all at the same time, worked in China,Thailand, England, the World Bank as an economist, and all around the world, travels on cargo ships or his family's leer jet, was in charge of moving a complete industrial factory out of Bulgaria onto a ship, but then it was Romania, has relatives in Monaco, owns a clinic in SJ providing unknown services, a cab company with 16 cabs, also has 17,500 employees, works on the docks in Limon shaking snakes out of banana shipments, fought professionally as a 4th degree black belt, all with the time to have served 6 years in the USAF in Viet Nam flying secret missions into Cambodia and Laos, owns a house in SJ with a 40 foot pool yet coincidentally works at a place that has a 40 foot pool where he let's a guest's dog swim for a fee, regularly accuses posters of trying to frame him in various criminal enterprises, has a prediction in the very near of snipers hanging out of SJ condo windows shooting us because the narc's are going to bring the CR govt to its knees imminently, that the Brother's Ponzi scheme was CIA, that a handful of Tico's have stolen billions from various governments, is 50 no 70 years old, pays $10 for gorgeous chicas that stupid gringos pay $150, and tons of other off the wall delusional bullshit. I am glad to see my posts about you are getting to you. I haven't lately because I have blocked your posts recently so as not to have to smell you. But I'll unblock you so that I can keep informing the new posters (everyone else already knows you stink) what a panty waste you are because some believe your halitosis until they finally get enough of a whiff.

My gum photo is now in the VIP gallery under the section "CRT VIP members with or without ladies" https://costaricaticas.com/vip/root.php?cat=7&ini=0 for anyone who doubted me. The black tissue is necrosis tissue (dead). Most of the dead section is gone permanently.

This was done by a smoking hot tech during a Zoom teeth whitening session at 90210. Just google Zoom teeth whitening to read pages of other people's horror stories this has happened to all over the world (not just 90210). This procedure is not as safe as advertised. The technician needs to be very highly skilled.

Obviously the smoking hot, easy on the eyes technician at 90210 was not highly skilled.

its photo # 16515 in the VIP gallery.

you have been warned!
