Patient Testimonials
Thank you Dr.Obando!
Dear Dr. Obando, Well, where do I start? You did a wonderful job on my total dental reconstruction. Your skills are unsurpassed. You and your staff are the most talented, caring professionals that I have had the pleasure of meeting. I know I was a real challenge and a little weak kneed, but you and Seidi just bit your tongue and worked through my
squirming. My mouth is feeling great and I’m already chewing gum. I know Mary Jo is looking forward to completing her dental work and enjoying the final product. Again, thank you and please thank Seidi as well. We will see you around May and will book a date after the holidays. MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR to you, Seidi and your staff.

Nova Dental is Outstanding!
I don’t believe I can thank you adequately for all your help & support indirecting my son & I to the excellent facilities of Nova Dental. Dr. Obando, Dr.Fonseca & Dr. Truque .. indeed, the clinic’s entire staff .. are one and all outstanding.
Truly I couldn’t have been more impressed with every aspect of our visit, my first to Costa Rica. Although I am not a dentist, I’m certain I’ve experienced enough to
recognize superior skill & expertise. Perhaps equally impressive was the amount of time spent explaining to James & myself every facet of the procedures.
I felt a great conscientious pride of workmanship, plus the clinic’s technology is amazing, beyond anything I’ve experienced on either Coast or the Midwest. I doubt there is anything in the States that would compare favorably .. definitely not with the cheerful friendliness received at Nova.
As you know, we stayed at the wonderful Aparthotel LaSabana, a 10-minutedrive from the clinic. Nova provided car service each occasion! (Just like New York:)
Thank you again for your endless helpful emails replying to my never ending questions. It was a great trip, a beautiful country to which I’m anxious to return.
Sincerely,
Robin Lescott
My Dental Experience in Costa Rica:
We arrived at the very nice offices of Dr. Luis G. Obando, NOVA DENTAL in the Plaza Itzkatzu, and were greeted by a lovely and very friendly staff, al speaking English, and happy to see us! We felt that we were in good hands, as we were immediately introduced to our Dentist, Dr. Obando, who took
photographs himself of our teeth, and listened intently to everything we had to say about our dental problems and inquiries. He told us that he would study our
Ex-rays, and make his expert opinion as to what should be done. As promised, the next day we each had time with Dr. Obando, as he showed us our Ex-rays, while explaining the options and procedures needed to be done. We also discussed price and decided on the procedure to be taken. Then our
appointments were arranged, and work began!
Always a pleasure to arrive at NOVA DENTAL, where everyone is so very nice and friendly. Our dental work began with Dr. Obando, and his amazing young and
talented Staff! Beautiful Seidi, lovely Yensy, Dr. Truque and a confident Dr.Manrique, we were treated by the best and most modern dental care ever! I have been bragging to everyone I meet now about our GREAT DENTIST in Costa Rica!
And, the proof of this is my husband’s teeth look and ARE beautiful and strong now…my teeth are in good shape, we have no pain, and are extremely happy with the results of our time with Dr. Obando, his staff and our entire dental experience.
The offices are very conveniently located in the Plaza Itzkatzu, where there is a pharmacy, many good restaurants, and a great Ice Cream Store! NOVA DENTAL
will always arrange for transportation, taxis or vans, whatever you need for you. It was entirely a Perfect and Delightful Dental Experience!
Truthfully and Sincerely,

Magnificent Staff!
It is my pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Dr Obando and his office staff.
During my visit to Costa Rica Dr. Obando was very flexible and accommodating with the limited time I could spend in the country. The work I had done – two crowns, a bonding, cleaning and whitening – was absolutely first rate and completed in three days. The office is state-of-the-art and I knew up front how long and the procedures would take and precisely what the cost would be.
I couldn’t be more pleased with the results! Doctor Obando and his magnificent staff are top professionals and nicest of people. I plan to go back in the future and whole-heartedly give them my highest recommendation.
With kindest regards,

Thank You So Much!
Hello Dr. Obando,
I think about you each day when I look in the mirror! Besides being handsome and kind, you’re really talented and professional. Thank you so much for my new smile!!! Whenever I am feeling depressed, I go to the mirror and look at these six front teeth you re-made with porcelain veneers. I am a little frustrated with myself when I realize that I should have done this 20 years ago when I first got divorced. I have spent money on everyone, my kids, my properties, my trips, but this one expenditure (half or less than in the USA) is the best investment I’ve ever made in myself, in my own self esteem, in my own happiness level. Sometimes when I am looking in the mirror, I giggle with glee! And think, no matter how old and wrinkly I get, I will
always have fabulous looking teeth! Yes, I went to Costa Rica to have a second face lift, which sadly, didn’t make much of a change (my doctor there is very conservative!), but every dime I spent in Costa Rica was worth meeting you and experiencing your artistic abilities, your warmth and sincerity, your determination to do the absolute best work possible.
I admit having decent teeth shaved down is very scary! It can be life changing, for the better or the worse! You never know! I am still adjusting to a couple of tiny spots behind one tooth (it’s only been two weeks!), but I would almost be willing to not eat for months to have these beautiful six front teeth. I love the fact that you didn’t make them absolutely perfect! They look as perfect as real teeth, which are never absolutely perfect! Of course, I could wish that they were whiter, but that would not have matched with the back teeth, so the color your choose was perfect, just a step whiter than the back caps. All in all, I am almost at a loss for words, to explain how happy I am with your work. Even though my teeth were OK (I never really thought I had awful teeth!), I am just thrilled to death that I decided to do this at the last moment, between surgery and recuperation! Unbelievably, you were able to work on my teeth and never once touch any of my facial sutures! And you were right about the appointments. Three were just perfect,the short last one imperative to smooth out the little details. Thank you so much! Please feel free to have any potential client contact me or post this on your website! My very best, MC, Utah, USA
Warm regards,
