(Editor’s Note: Readers — what follows is good general dental advice. However, it also represents “comment spam,” meaning it was left here by a representative of a company that tries to sell dental insurance online. Such plans often sound too good to be true … “Let the buyer beware.” Traveling to another country for top-quality major dental work offers real savings, not sketchy insurance promises. Anyway — I’m removing the link, but leaving the comment, to better make my point. I delete dozens of these per week.)

Brushing your teeth twice a day is an essential dental care. This helps prevent tooth decay and gum disease. The size and shape of your toothbrush should fit the mouth to enable the brush to reach all areas easily. Using a toothpaste containing fluoride is also another tip in dental care for fluoride helps protect your teeth from decay.

Hi Tiffany,
I am also an US Certified Pharmacy Technician and have been in
Pharmacy since 1975. I will be 54 in December. My husband and I
want very much to establish a home in Costa Rica. I am ready for a
change in US healthcare, it certainly is not what it use to be and
I am fed up. I love the health care industry, but not the way it is
run by insurance companies that have no idea what the patient’s needs are and our doctor’s are our caretakers, know us personally, not the insurance companies. I can’t wait to live in Costa Rica and by the way, I need some cosmetic dental work myself and I will be looking you up when I so get down there. You have given me inspiration to pursue this move, but it may be approximately 6 months before we can make this move. Good Luck and God bless you my friend.

Its commendable for you to start a dentist practice in such a place far away from home and it looks like it is a success, good on you.

I read an interesting article at the CostaRica HQ blog that said healthcare is of higher quality in CR than in the US.

I’ve found the information at CostaRicaHQ (dot org) to be very useful. Everything from healthcare, internet service, cuisine, domestic help, relocation strategies, customs, etc. A must read if you’re considering traveling to or living in Costa Rica.
