Juvenile Dentistry -
Dr. Sylvia L. Gudiño F. is
generally accepted as the best in Costa Rica. Read her CV
here. I recently decided to help a needy family with a 4
year old girl suffering from Severe Early Childhood Caries (see
example here) and she is terrific. The prices are fair
and her clinic is so impressive you would not believe it.
Located 25 meters north of the Catholic church in Zapote. She
devised a complete rehabilitation plan after the first
consultation and produced a computerized print-out of the
treatments with the payments due for each stage. A real pro who
is a pleasure to work with. Phone: 2225-4045. |
