Dental Tourism as your Best Option
for your Dental Needs
Our founder’s idea of servicing patients from all over the world comes from his teenage years, when he knew he wanted to be a dentist, like his previous five generations. He intended to serve patients from the US and around the world, knowing he could offer a competitive price, and ever since, he has improved thousands of smiles.
Understanding that his knowledge could be passed on to the next generation, he started training dentists, dental technicians, and dental assistants to ensure that his model could be reproduced to reach more patients and share his learnings with his colleagues who share a passion for helping.
This is how we became the leaders in dental tourism in Costa Rica, and we are happy to know that our service will continue to reach many who look to restore their confidence and quality of life through a bright, beautiful smile!

Meza Dental Care 110 Google reviews Ekaterina Marinova2024-08-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I decided to visit Meza Dental in June to get veneers on my upper front 6 teeth. I was in Costa Rica, and they quickly scheduled a consultation for me. Dr. Marin attended to me, and she politely explained all the details of the veneer installation and the possible options. The veneers were installed within a week—an impressive turnaround. Everything was explained to me clearly, and the entire staff was courteous. When I tried on the veneers, Dr. Marin suggested improving them, and within 1.5 hours, they adjusted the veneer in their in-house lab, so I didn’t have to wait long. I’m very satisfied with the speed, quality of service, and the politeness of the staff. david marsh2024-08-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a root canal and three crowns done here and my experience was very positive. From the doctors to the support staff to the equipment and office everything is top rate and I saved a lot of money choosing to have the work done outside the USA. I am very, very thankful to Dr. Marín and everyone at Meza Dental. I highly recommend this place! Andre Mullen2024-08-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went to Meza 5 years ago and everything is great. I stayed in an Airbnb and got rides to and from the office Highly recommended Mercedes Sosa weiler2024-07-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Meza dental in Costa Rica is the best clinic Professional, kind , patient and the prices are the best. I love the way the doctor explains all the treatments Bella Graffam2024-07-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I completed my first visit with Meza Dental in July 2024. Every single aspect of my treatment was absolutely outstanding. The administrative staff, all the doctors and dental assistants, the travel agency and Jose the driver were all friendly, professional and put me at ease. I (along with so many others, I know) am extremely phobic of dental treatments. That fear, along with the unknown aspects of traveling to another country for medical treatment, had me unbelievably anxious. I needed extensive treatment - root canals, extractions, crowns, implants, etc. In the US this would have cost me ~$50-60k. I got a quote from Meza Dental for ~40% of the price in the US so I decided to put my fears aside and go to Costa Rica. I can’t begin to explain how pleased I am with my decision. Not only did I save 10s of thousands of dollars but the care that I received at Meza is probably the best medical experience in my 50 years on this planet. Dr Meza and his staff take obvious pride in their work and spent all the necessary time with me to explain and complete each and every procedure. The crowns that I received look absolutely perfect - the best I’ve ever seen. I would recommend this clinic to an American. Don’t let your nerves or the unknown get the best of you - you won’t be sorry. David Katz2024-06-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My first experience with Meza Dental was in 2013 when after researching various dental services around the globe I chose Meza and it was an excellent choice. I had extensive work done at the time and the results were phenomenal. Pain was kept to a minimum during the entire procedure and my well being was of utmost concern to the entire staff. Ten years later one of my implants fell out, a result of me not wearing my mouth guard not of Meza Dentals quality of work. I called and talked with Dr. Meza and he told me it was covered by a lifetime guarantee. I decided to go back to Costa Rica and have it taken care of. I just finished yesterday and I feel great. I really cannot say enough about the entire staff from José my driver while I was there to Rebecca who always greeted me with a sincere smile and remembered my name after 10 years and especially, and I am embarrassed I do not remember her name but the young women who assisted the doctors and took my panoramic X-rays. She was the best. So if you are looking for quality dental work with a significant savings over US dental prices give Meza Dental a call. You’ll be glad you did. Iris Solomon2024-06-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I had a fantastic experience at MEZA Dental. Rebecca was awesome and the entire MEZA staff made us feel comfortable and did incredibly professional work. We would highly recommend them for all your dental needs. allan carlomagno2024-06-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Been using Meza dental for over 12 years and have never had any issues, just finished a full mouth restoration and I couldn’t be happier Woody Hass2024-06-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Good transportation and great dentists that helped explain everything! T W2024-06-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was referred to Dr. Meza by a patient whose results were immaculate. I have a history of anxiety when visiting dentist and am hyper critical when it comes to patient care. I had never visited Costa Rica and had my treatment with Dr. Meza done at that location. San Jose is beautiful, clean and tourist friendly! The locals are kind and patient with non-Spanish speakers. I visited twice - Dec 2023 and May 2024 for phase one and phase two. I was greeted by Mr. Jose, the driver who handled pick-up and drop off to and from the airport and clinic. He is very friendly, patient with tourist questions and ensured that I and the others in the vehicle were always comfortable. He communicated very professionally and was always on time for transport. I felt "in good hands" with Mr. Jose. Before even arriving to the clinic during my first (solo) trip, I was comfortable after meeting Jose. I must say, he represents Meza Dental Clinic very well, regarding customer service. When I arrive to the clinic and met Dr. Meza and his team, I was so very impressed with the level of cutting-edge customer service. The clinic is very clean, organized, has an atmosphere of calm and welcoming energy, design and stylish interior which made it easy to settle in and feel comfortable. Ms. Rebeca has superior customer service. From the very first visit, including the emails and correspondence before traveling to CR, she is thorough, kind, highly professional and displays those qualities quite naturally. She truly cares about patient experience! Each encounter with her: before, during both my six-day trips to CR, she remained consistent in presenting high quality customer service to me and other patients at the clinic. I wish I can recall the names of everyone on Dr. Meza's team who participated in my treatment, however I cannot give justice in words to how comfortable Dr. Meza and his team made me feel. As stated above, I have dental anxiety, Dr. Meza and his team seemed to literally "work magic" in their abilities to help me relax. I knew I was in very good hands with Dr. Meza and his team - every encounter. Dr. Meza, oh my - Dr. Meza is 100% thorough, a perfectionist. His attention to precision and customer service satisfaction is by far, compared to none!! I felt well educated and informed by him; he explains everything to the patient before he does it - every step of the way so that I may understand how to take care of my teeth properly moving forward. He checked in with me to ensure I was comfortable throughout each of my procedures and was patient with my questions and anxiety. He is superior, by all standards in dentistry and smile reconstruction. I do not believe I would have had such quality of care anywhere else abroad or even in the USA. To Dr. Meza and his team, you gave me my smile back, my confidence back and trust in knowing that there is at least one dentist left on the planet earth that is truly committed to patient care, the medical Hippocratic oath "Do No Harm", cutting-edge customer services and awesome results!! THANK YOU, Dr. Meza!! THANK YOU TO THE TEAM!!
