Jehova Rafa Dental Center

If you're ever in need of a fantastic dentist, I highly recommend coming to San Jose, Costa Rica! After losing my front teeth and neighboring tooth in an accident at age 11, I've undergone numerous operations and tried almost every possible dental treatment by age 37. I've had to replace my front teeth every 10 years or so, especially during my younger years when I was still growing.

I've been with Dr. Jehoavas Rafa for a couple of years now, and he's the first dentist who not only does a technically great job but also considers aesthetics - which is super rare, believe me!

Highly recommend Dr. Jehoavas Rafa for professional and cosmetic treatment - he's one of the best dentists I've ever experienced!!

I went to their clinic in early February.

They did a great job an no editing around like most dental clinics.

I ended getting a dry sicket which messed my schedule up but they went out of their way to get me back and going.

The work was excellent and I highly recommend them. They are professional and accommodating.

Seven of my family members and a few coworkers have gone to Dr Calvo for dentistry work. So while my sister was travelling to have work done that she was quoted $31,000 in the USA, I decided to go with her and have some minor work done. I was so amazed how smooth the whole process is. From the second you land at the airport and Olger picks you up, through the initial check-up by Dr Calvo and the estimate to go the work to the work being done for a fraction of the cost of US dentist. Dr Calvo and his staff are very professional, speak fluent English explains everything he can do for you and the price. While having the work done they are caring and gentle. My sisters total price was $3400 compared to the $31,000 estimate she received in the USA. She didn’t need as much as she was told by the US dentist but did receive four root canals and a bridge with six teeth, as well as a deep cleaning. All done within two visits/ two days. Surprisingly she had NO PAIN whatsoever. I just had a deep cleaning, three silver/mercury fillings I got when I was a child replaced, and a whitening treatment and paid right at $500
No pain and now I have the most shiniest teeth that I have had in years.

The office is well equipped and very clean. The shopping centre is very nice and clean

At the end of the shopping center is a very nice grocery store that has everything you could possibly need. So happy I finally decided to come to see for myself how wonderful Dr Calvo and Olger are. Absolutely the BEST.

I highly recommend Dr. Jehova Rafa without reservation! I have been at dentists around the world due to an accident I had when I was 11 years old.

I had a lot of operations until I was 28 years old, but there were still some things to do on my lower jaw. I was looking for a relatively pain-free and affordable treatment. A dentist in Germany suggested implanting gum from my palate to give my lower jaw more stability. Others from the U.S suggested implants or bridges. All this means destroying additional teeth that are basically still healthy.

Dr. Jehova Rafa on the other hand suggested veneers and he corrected four teeth within a week. I can't tell you enough how happy that makes me. Finally, a dentist who's not just seeing a "money-making-machine" in me, but has my best interests in mind!

I love the result! It gives me so much confidence and I can finally smile like a beautiful butterfly!

If you're looking for a trustworthy dentist, Dr. Jehova Rafa is the way to go!

Dr Coto is a trained professional. Dr Coto performed a full mouth restoration (22 titanium crowns, 7 root canals and 6 implants). He did this work over six days at eight hours a day. There was never an issue with sedation. Dr Coto was in charge and everyone who assisted him was very professional. I’ve grown up my entire childhood and young adult life in a dentist and orthodontist chair in Dallas, Texas. From pulling teeth to cavities to braces and retainer and even headgear for an overbite…I KNOW.
I also KNOW the same professional work you get done in the States you can get done with Dr Coto at a fraction of the cost.

I am a patient of Dr Alberto Coto. I recently had 13 crowns installed. It was amazing, thorough and effective and the only dentist that has ever been painless. I was picked up at the airport and accommodated in a very nice B+B and shuttled to my appointments every day. English was spoken and it couldn't have been easier. My new teeth are beautiful and feel like I was born with them!

I went for porcelain veneers, however, after I got there he also took all the metal fillings out and replaced with white(6). Put a post and crown in an old root canal, bleached the bottoms and replaced my bonding with the porcelain veneers. They did it all in 4 days. He has several dentists working in different areas. Transportation was provided in both ways.

The clinic was clean and the equipment very advanced. The dentist all spoke English, the rest of the staff tried.

San Jose on the side we were on is a very run down area. Bars and night time security. However, we felt safe but we did not wander. Prices on everything is higher than the States except the dental work. Price was about 1/8 of what I was quoted in the USA.

I started having problems with my 4 unit bridge becoming unglued from the anchor teeth. One of the anchor teeth had degenerated so much that there was no longer enough left to glue to .My dentist decided that we needed to extract the anchor teeth as well as the tooth behind it, insert implants and a new 5 unit bridge. After his price quote, I decided to look elsewhere. Through WhatClinic I discovered Jehova Rapha. I was given a quote of $4200 for the total job which was about a third of what I was quoted at home. Dr Calvo graduated from the U. of Frankfurt and was very professional and easy to work with. He extracted the 3 teeth and installed 2 implants. I return to his clinic in 4 months (after healing) to have the bridge installed. So far, I am very happy with the process.

Dr Calvo and his staff were very friendly and professional.I was picked up at the airport and driven to my appointments free of charge. I used a B&B affiliated with the clinic and was very happy with it. I took my wife with me and we were charged $65 a day which included breakfast and dinner. The meals were delicious and sumptuous, the room very clean, and the staff very friendly. One thing I really liked about Jehova Rapha was that there was no waiting and they saw me right away. I look forward to returning in 4 month to have my bridge installed. I highly recommend Jehova Rapha...........James

Dr Andrea and her colleague did an excellent job. Thank you very much, ladies!

Totally satisfied with the service and quality provided. Very reasonable prices.

I compared some reviews, prices and locations Jehovah was the overall best option for my dental implants. I had my follow-ups and will be returning in December to have more work done.

Both treatment and service were great. They picked me up and drove me everywhere. I was very well cared for and would give them the maximum rating. I really like this dentist.

I had crowns and one implant. First numbing and procedure was somewhat uncomfortable but the numbing was a must. I would do it again. Dr Cota was very good, understanding with my questions and dental work.

Very pleased with my dental work. Would have had more done not enough time.

Dental Implant was performed and the entire process was pain-free with no discomfort. If you are considering this type of procedure; think no further and just go for it. It is well worth the value!

Wow! My experience was absolutely amazing!
Dr Calvo and the staff are very professional, loving and compassionate.

This dental office is everything a client desires and more.
I am so blessed to have a dentist who loves life; enjoys helping others and does great quality work at a fair price.

The treatments from Dr. Coto and Dr. Adriana were done with professionalism and I can give them a good recommendation based upon my experience. They were very accommodating with scheduling and speed of service. Above all their pricing was extremely fair and I was happy.

I scheduled this appointment to address what I thought would be major problems since I had not gone to the dentist in 26 years. My childhood memories had me terrified of the dentist. Anyway, they did an evaluation and came up with a treatment plan that was far less work than what I expected so I was very pleased. Dr. Coto was very honest in what I needed and told me that I did not need the services that I had told him I needed.
They completed the work quick and efficiently and did a good job at making me feel comfortable in the chair.
