San José, Costa Rica Cosmetic dentist offering an array of cosmetic and restorative treatments

The Flikier Dental Institute is the premier full-service dental clinic in Costa Rica, attracting both local patients and medical tourists. After founding his practice, Dr. Simon Flikier assembled a team of fellow elite dentists: Dr. Ilan Grunhaus, Dr. Ivan Navarro, Dr. Jorge Blen Esposito, Dr. Monica Izrael Rubinstein, Dr. Jamie Lizano, Dr. Daniel Vainer Lechtman.. Each dentist brings his or her own specialty to the team, including periodontics, orthodontics, prosthodontics, endodontics, general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, implantology and pediatric dentistry. In covering so many facets of dentistry, Flikier Dental Institute is prepared to tackle the needs of any patient.

Dr. Flikier and his dental team have built a reputation for outstanding full mouth reconstruction results. Patients who are eager to make over their mouths can benefit from dental implants, veneers, dental crowns, All-on-4 or All-on-8, Invisalign and oral surgery.

Flikier Dental Institute attributes a large part of its success to its state-of-the-art facility and equipment. The technology, materials and digital capabilities rival top dentist offices around the world. Therefore, patients sacrifice no quality by receiving reconstructive and cosmetic care in Costa Rica.

Because Flikier Dental Institute’s team speaks English and has impressive credentials, many tourists from the United States, Canada and Europe come to Costa Rica to pay a substantially lower price for the same standard of care they could expect to receive in their own countries. The staff is ready to answer any questions about medical travel to make the experience easier for our patients.

What Do Patients Say about Flikier Dental Institute?

“I had a substantial amount of work done — a full reconstruction starting with 11 tooth extractions — at Flikier Dental Institute, and it was the most positive experience I’ve had at any dentist. I couldn’t be happier with the finished work. The staff is very professional and friendly, and the facility is scrupulously clean.”
– Richard N.


“Dr. Flikier was not pushy. He gave me a dental plan with an extremely reasonable estimate — a fraction of what it would cost in the U.S. I got the full mouth reconstruction, and my only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner. My smile is so stunning, I can’t stop looking at myself. Dr. Flikier is a world class dentist who made my trip worthwhile.”
– P.F.


“I had such a great experience with Dr. Flikier and his team. I suffer from an anxiety disorder, and everyone here was caring, patient and experienced. I highly recommend.”
– Christopher C.
