“As an American expat living in Costa Rica, I have a lot of experience with both US and Costa Rican dentists and today’s dental experience has blown me away.
During my appointment, Dr. Sevilla was patient and understanding of my concerns, had a great bedside manner, and made me feel like a human being, not a number. After walking me through several treatment options, we decided on the one I felt most comfortable with.
I'm glad I chose STAR Dental and have recommended them to all my friends and family.”
"Dr. Sevilla and the rest of the staff at STAR Dental are the most amazing people. They take excellent care of you and will never sacrifice your best interest or your safety.
Dr. Sevilla has changed my life by giving me my smile back.
I couldn’t have found a better dentist. Thank you.”
“To the wonderful staff at STAR Dental!
You have exceeded my expectations! How lovely to find such comfort so far from home. From the beginning work with the Patient Coordinator to the wonderful expertise of Dr. Guillen and Dr. Feoli, how terrific it is to feel so comfortable with such a procedure. We finished ahead of schedule too! Nothing but love and praise for this entire team.
Dr. Sevilla– a personal thank you for all your help as well! I would recommend Star to all my friends and family.”
"Dr Carlos Sevilla is a great Prosthodontist. I chose him after an intensive search. I am a retired RN and very picky. His background at Baylor University was a plus. Dr. Sevilla taught me to smile again. STAR Dental, Dr. Sevilla and his team of professionals did an implant, root canal and capped all of my front teeth, and it was less money than one implant at home in southern Florida.
The office is clean and comfortable. Being a nurse, I requested to view their sterilization process and the tour started there. Melissa will handle all your needs for hotels and anything else you can think of. Dr Sevilla is the best. He is kind and explains everything. He is determined to give you the best treatment available. He gave me back my teeth from years ago, his cosmetic skills are remarkable.
I am looking forward to going back in early April. I was afraid to come to Costa Rica but that was just fear of the unknown, it is very safe there. I am sorry I did not meet the STAR Dental team years ago.”
“My experience at Star Dental Implant Center has exceeded my expectations. As someone coming from the US who does not speak Spanish, I have had so much assistance from the staff making difficult travel and transportation arrangements. Their knowledge of key places to visit, stay, and eat has made this a special experience. However, the most important part of this journey has been discovering the skill and care with which this team of dentists and oral surgeons have taken on my case which was complicated by underlying type 1 diabetes. They considered all the risks, both short and long term and clearly laid out all my options. I was able to make an informed choice and immediately proceed with the plan. The budget was clearly discussed as we went over the itemized charges. I was already aware of many of these costs so I estimated a savings of one half to two thirds of that in the States. The travel, or portions of it, are included in the cost as well.
I was amazed at the speed and expertise with which the doctors completed the first phase. They explained, in excellent English, my aftercare and prepared me well for phase 2 with the oral surgeon. Several days later they completed phase 2, after which I was fitted with beautifully made prostheses.
In 4 months I’ll continue with the final phases of treatment and realize my hope and this capable team's promise of a healthy mouth and much better general health.
The country motto is very fitting as it applies to me and my complete experience so far.Star Dental Implant Center and Costa Rica has truly offered me a taste of the ‘Pura Vida’.”
