Your questions, answered.

We start by understanding your goals and reviewing your teeth, gums, bone, bite and medical history. Photos and existing X-rays help us explore your options before you travel. At the clinic, your examination and CT scan allow us to confirm whether implants are right for you. We also consider other ways to restore your smile when appropriate. Your plan is built around your health, comfort and long-term care needs.

Not necessarily. We assess each tooth and look for opportunities to preserve natural teeth that can be treated and maintained. Depending on your needs, your plan may use crowns or veneers, replace selected missing teeth with implants, or restore a full arch. We explain the reasons for any recommended extraction and discuss suitable alternatives with you. Together, we choose an approach that supports your oral health and the smile you want.

Both treatments support a full-arch restoration with implants. All-on-4 uses four implants per arch, while All-on-6 uses six. Our Complete Smile packages cover both arches: eight implants in All-on-4 and twelve in All-on-6. We recommend the design that best suits your bone, bite and restoration needs; more implants are not automatically better for everyone. Your clinical team will explain the choice and how it fits your individual treatment plan.

A crown covers most of the visible tooth and can help when it needs structural support. A veneer mainly covers the front surface and may suit selected cosmetic improvements. We evaluate each tooth before recommending either option.

No—your smile is individual. Our Full Mouth Smile Makeover covers 20–28 crowns and/or veneers on natural teeth, with the exact number and treatment for each tooth based on your clinical needs. We use personalized digital smile design and a mock-up to help you visualize your smile before final adjustments. We use E.max porcelain veneers and zirconia crowns. If you also need implants, we can explore our ADC Complete Smile Restoration package.

Yes. Our ADC Complete Smile Restoration package combines dental implants, crowns and veneers in a plan tailored to your needs. We evaluate your teeth, bite and smile goals to recommend the right combination, with the aim of restoring comfortable function, enhancing your smile and improving your quality of life.

Our All-on-4 and All-on-6 Complete Smile packages include assessment and imaging, Neodent implants with original components, planned extractions and grafting specified in your treatment plan, IV sedation with an anesthesiologist, provisionals and final fixed zirconia dentures for both arches. Your dentures are crafted in our in-house laboratory. Prescribed postoperative medication in Costa Rica and checkups during scheduled visits are included. Fixed provisionals are provided when clinically suitable, with final dentures completed after healing and ADC clinical approval. For travel inclusions, see “Which hotel nights, airport transfers and flights are included?”.

We work with Straumann and Neodent implant systems. Our implant packages use Neodent implants with original Neodent abutments and components. Neodent belongs to Straumann Group and has its own implant designs and components. We use E.max porcelain veneers and zirconia crowns. Our All-on-4 and All-on-6 packages include final fixed zirconia dentures. Your implant passport records the exact implant brand and reference, helping a dentist identify the right system for future care.

Our All-on-4 and All-on-6 packages include necessary grafting as specified in your approved treatment plan. ADC Complete Smile Restoration includes up to two grafts when needed, with their type and extent defined for your case. Root canal treatments and surgical guides are not included in the package prices and are quoted separately when recommended. We explain their role and any effect on your schedule. More complex grafting may require additional healing time or treatment stages.

We can prepare a preliminary proposal using your goals, photos and available X-rays so you can understand your options and budget before traveling. Your in-person examination and CT scan let us confirm the final treatment plan and price. If we find something that changes the plan, we explain the options and any additional costs, and obtain your approval before proceeding. Your coordinator helps you understand each stage and how it fits your visit.

Plan for approximately five days on your first visit, about three to four months of healing, and seven to ten days on your second visit. The first stage includes assessment, planned surgery and an appropriate temporary restoration. We complete your final rehabilitation after healing and clinical clearance. Grafting or more complex cases may need a different schedule. Before you book, your coordinator will check your individual itinerary with the clinical team, including appointments, arrival, departure and hotel nights.

Our full-arch packages include provisional restorations while your implants heal. We provide fixed provisionals when implant stability and your clinical condition make immediate loading suitable. If your implants need a different approach, we explain the

temporary option that best supports healing and your daily needs. These are the healing- stage teeth; your final fixed zirconia dentures are completed after Aesthetic Dental Care clinical approval.

We guide you on eating, cleaning and caring for your provisionals throughout this stage.

Allow approximately ten days for Full Mouth Smile Makeover or the main treatment stay of ADC Complete Smile Restoration. Both include seven hotel nights for you and a companion, with breakfast. Treatment days and included nights are distinct: if you must extend your stay to complete your Aesthetic Dental Care treatment, Aesthetic Dental Care covers the additional hotel nights. The combined plan also includes a return visit to finish implant restorations after healing and Aesthetic Dental Care clinical approval. Your Aesthetic Dental Care patient coordinator reviews each stage and your itinerary before booking.

All-on-4 and All-on-6 Complete Smile include five first-trip hotel nights for you and a companion, breakfast and airport pickup and drop-off. Second-trip hotel and transportation are not included. Full Mouth Smile Makeover and ADC Complete Smile Restoration include seven nights for two with breakfast and airport pickup and drop-off for your main treatment stay. If you must extend that stay to complete your Aesthetic Dental Care treatment, Aesthetic Dental Care covers the additional hotel nights and provides a $50 credit if changing your flight dates incurs a penalty because of that extension. Flights are separate. This flight-change credit is distinct from the $500 travel credit already deducted from those package prices. Your Aesthetic Dental Care patient coordinator helps organize your itinerary.

Your Aesthetic Dental Care specialist will recommend when you can fly home, based on your treatment and recovery. Your Aesthetic Dental Care patient coordinator reviews your travel dates with our doctors before you book. We recommend travel insurance and flexible tickets, and encourage you to check your policy’s terms for planned dental treatment.

We offer four packages for different treatment needs. All-on-4 and All-on-6 Complete Smile restore both arches with implants and final fixed zirconia dentures. Full Mouth Smile Makeover focuses on natural teeth, while ADC Complete Smile Restoration combines individual implants with natural-tooth restorations tailored to your case. The prices below are in US dollars. Paying in full by bank transfer to our U.S. account gives you the lower package price. Your Aesthetic Dental Care patient coordinator helps you find the right option.

Paying in full by bank transfer to our U.S. account gives you the lower package price. For All-on-4, that is $18,900 instead of $22,100—a savings of $3,200. If you prefer payment by visits, 65% is paid on your first visit and 35% on your second. The amounts are $14,365 + $7,735 for All-on-4, $16,055 + $8,645 for All-on-6, and $16,250 + $8,750 for Aesthetic Dental Care Complete Smile Restoration. Your Aesthetic Dental Care patient coordinator helps you choose your option and provides the transfer details.

You can pay in full by bank transfer to our U.S. account to receive the single-payment package price: $18,900 for All-on-4, $21,500 for All-on-6, $12,300 for Full Mouth Smile Makeover, or $22,000 for ADC Complete Smile Restoration. Your ADC patient coordinator provides the transfer details and guides you through the payment steps and timing for your treatment. If you prefer another arrangement, your coordinator can explain the payment options available for your case, including payment by visits for the implant packages.

Your Aesthetic Dental Care patient coordinator explains the reservation steps and any applicable payment for your case. We help you organize your treatment dates, clinical arrangements and chosen payment option, and explain how any reservation payment applies to your plan. Once your arrangements are agreed, your coordinator confirms the appointment details with you. A reservation payment is separate from the $500 travel credit already included in the Full Mouth Smile Makeover and Aesthetic Dental Care Complete Smile Restoration prices.

We have already applied a $500 travel credit to the displayed prices for Full Mouth Smile Makeover and ADC Complete Smile Restoration. For Aesthetic Dental Care Complete Smile Restoration, it is included in both the single-payment and payment-by-visits totals. It is a price reduction, rather than a separate cash payment or reservation deposit, and cannot be redeemed for cash. All-on-4 and All-on-6 do not include this travel credit. The separate $50 flight-change credit applies when an Aesthetic Dental Care treatment-stay extension causes a date-change penalty.

Insurance coverage for dental treatment abroad depends on your policy. Your insurer can confirm overseas benefits and any documentation or preauthorization it needs. Our coordinator can discuss the treatment information required for your enquiry. Payment by visits lets you split the implant-package total between your first and second visits; it is a payment arrangement rather than a loan. For an external financing option, eligibility, interest and repayment terms are set by the provider. We help you understand your treatment price and payment choices.

Your comfort matters to us. We use local anesthesia to manage pain during surgery and discuss sedation when appropriate. You may notice pressure or other sensations, and some soreness, swelling or bruising can occur afterward. Let us know about dental anxiety or previous anesthesia experiences so we can tailor your comfort plan. We explain what to expect during recovery, provide personalized instructions, and help you understand when a symptom needs attention.

Our All-on-4, All-on-6 and Aesthetic Dental Care Complete Smile Restoration packages include IV sedation with an anesthesiologist for the planned surgical treatment. It is not included in Full Mouth Smile Makeover. We review your medical history and anesthesia needs to choose an appropriate approach for you. Our Aesthetic Dental Care doctors explain preparation, monitoring and recovery instructions, including any need for a responsible companion. Your Aesthetic Dental Care patient coordinator helps organize these details as part of your treatment visit.

Please share your medical conditions, allergies, previous anesthesia experiences, and all medicines and supplements you take. Smoking, vaping and other factors that affect healing are also useful for us to know. We may coordinate with your usual medical clinician when additional guidance is needed. Keep taking prescribed medication unless the clinician managing it gives you different instructions. Your dental and anesthesia teams provide preparation guidance tailored to you, including eating, drinking, medication and accompaniment arrangements.

Follow the home-care and maintenance instructions provided by your ADC clinical team, including dental checkups and professional hygiene visits every six months, unless your treating professional recommends a different frequency. Use any prescribed protective guard and promptly report pain, looseness, fractures or other concerns. Contact your ADC patient coordinator if you need help understanding your follow-up plan. Warranty claims are reviewed under your applicable written agreement. Missing a follow-up visit does not automatically void the entire warranty; any exclusion depends on whether lack of follow-up or maintenance contributed to the claimed failure.

Contact us on WhatsApp (+506 6167-3409) or email inquiry@aestheticdentalcr.com with your symptoms and treatment details. We can discuss your concerns and help identify the next step; an examination may be needed. For worsening pain, suspected infection or a loose restoration, contact us and a local dentist promptly. If you have difficulty breathing or swallowing, rapidly increasing swelling or uncontrolled bleeding, seek local emergency care immediately rather than waiting for a remote reply.

If an implant or restoration develops a problem, we begin with an assessment to understand the cause and the appropriate treatment. Implant integration, infection, bite changes, loosening and fracture can require different approaches. Contact us so we can review the situation, the applicable written warranty and the next steps. We explain the recommended work, any costs and whether a return visit is needed. When an in-person assessment is needed at home, a suitable local dentist can help; urgent care should be sought promptly.

A dentist familiar with your implant system can often help with ongoing care. Your implant passport identifies the exact brand and reference, and relevant treatment records help the dentist understand your restorations. Because implant systems use specific components, the provider will need to check compatibility and access to parts for any repair. We can help share treatment information and discuss care needs with you. Warranty-related work is reviewed with our team under the written terms applicable to your treatment.

ADC crowns and veneers have a three-year written warranty from final delivery. Our zirconia fixed implant-supported dentures for All-on-4, All-on-5 and All-on-6 have four-year coverage from definitive delivery, including qualifying implant failures attributable to a defect, ADC placement or ADC clinical work. Acrylic fixed implant-supported dentures have three-year denture coverage from definitive delivery; implant coverage is separate. Eligible manufacturer lifetime implant-product coverage is distinct from ADC’s warranties. We explain the applicable written terms with you. Your ADC patient coordinator can explain the maintenance responsibilities that apply to your treatment.

Read our written warranty terms

Contact your Aesthetic Dental Care patient coordinator with your treatment details, a description of the issue and relevant records. Our Aesthetic Dental Care doctors assess the cause and applicable written coverage. For a covered failure, Aesthetic Dental Care repairs or replaces the affected item in Costa Rica without charging for the materials and clinical services directly necessary to correct it. We explain any anesthesia or sedation arrangements and costs in advance. Warranty-related travel and lodging are separate. Individual implant coverage follows the applicable written terms, not an automatic full-arch term. Neodent offers lifetime replacement of eligible implant products through the clinic and distributor under its manufacturer policy, separate from Aesthetic Dental Care clinical coverage. Manufacturer reference: Neodent product warranty policy.

Your coordinator checks your treatment itinerary with the clinical team before you book, including both visits when needed. Check current entry requirements with the relevant official authorities and choose travel arrangements that suit your schedule. If you use travel insurance, your provider can explain coverage for planned dental treatment and related care.

Yes—a companion can make your stay more comfortable by helping with travel, meals and recovery. Full Mouth Smile Makeover and ADC Complete Smile Restoration include seven hotel nights for two with breakfast for your main treatment stay; All-on-4 and All-on-6 include five first-trip nights for two with breakfast. We explain responsible-adult arrangements after sedation and ADC recovery instructions. Your ADC patient coordinator helps with meals, pharmacies and transport. If your Makeover or combined treatment requires a longer main stay, please see “Which hotel nights, airport transfers and flights are included?” for the additional-night and $50 flight-change benefits and their conditions.

Yes, our team can assist you in English and Spanish. Let your coordinator know your preferred language when you contact us. We want you to feel comfortable discussing your goals and understanding your treatment, payment arrangements and home-care instructions. There is time to ask questions and review your consent documents before treatment. If you need particular language support, we can discuss the arrangements with you in advance.

Tell us your name, preferred contact method and what you would like to improve about your smile. Message us on WhatsApp (+506 6167-3409), call our U.S. phone +1 (833) 525-8722, or email inquiry@aestheticdentalcr.com. Your coordinator guides you to the authorized channel for optional photos, X-rays or medical records and explains how that information is handled. A passport copy is not needed for your first enquiry. Sending a form starts the conversation; your coordinator will help prepare your preliminary plan and confirm appointment arrangements with you.

A good fit starts with a team you feel comfortable talking to and a plan you understand. At Aesthetic Dental Care, we explain your treatment options, the clinical team involved, materials, visit schedule and package inclusions. We also discuss care after you return home and the written warranty applicable to your treatment. Clear information helps you compare the same treatment scope and total travel needs. Share your goals with us, and we will help you explore a personalized preliminary plan.
