Traveling to Costa Rica for Dental Implants is a very affordable option for people with tooth loss in the USA. Dental Implants are about three times the cost in the USA & Canada compared to Costa Rica. Teeth Implants are part of Prosthetic dentistry, that involves replacement of missing teeth with artificial teeth (implant & Crowns). There are two types of Dental implants, one is a two stage dental implants (take about 2 to 4 months between the appointments for putting the implant abutment & the implant crown). The second, type called the immediate load (also referred as one stage or same day implants) take about 10 days.
