I love going to Dr. Kriebel’s office because I always get treated so well. Everybody is so sweet and kind. He has the sweetest mother in the world because she was so kind to me when she first met. Most people in the United States would never be that kind. Since meeting Dr. Kriebel, this is the only dentist that I will go to. He deserves 6 stars. He does excellent work. He made me look human…

Amazing service, it is definitely worth the trip to Costa Rica. From the moment you step into their office to the moment you arrive back home, they are with you every step of the way. I’m incredibly grateful to the doctors and the entire team. Thank you from the bottom of my heart .. and from my teeth as well! My smile has never looked better and is truly life-changing.

I highly recommend Doctor Mariano Kriebel. From the very first moment, he was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive, taking the time to explain every step of the procedure and making me feel completely comfortable and at ease. The dental work he performed was outstanding—extremely thorough, precise, and with excellent results. His attention to detail and clear dedication to his patients…

Dr. Kriebel and his team are amazing! I had implants and crowns done. Also alot of time into fixing my bite. I was very pleased with all the services I received. I was very comfortable with Dr. Kriebel after years of fear of dentists. I will return and also have referred friends and family.

Exceptional hygienist and , best night guard I’ve ever had.Dr Kriebal and staff are very professional and welcoming.Vivianne did an excellent job organizing my hotel & pickup she’s amazing. I live in Florida and have been coming to Costa Rica for dental work for 7 years. I’m very happy and grateful it’s definitely a cut above any dental care I have received at home.

I used Kriebel Dental, San Jose. I'm thrilled by the work. I got upper & lower veneers, 2 implants & a root canal for 16K, would have cost me 45 to 55k where I live. dr Kriebel speaks English & guarantees his work. He trained and practiced in the United States and the same with the oral surgeons that he used-top-notch. With Dental travel, you have to be VERY CAREFUL, there are a lot of…

fly-by-night operations & the HORROR stories that go with it. (I saw one story, where a fly-by-night outfit placed an implant into somebody's nasal sinus! This is not the case at Kriebel, his great grandfather started the practice in 1894. What I especially liked, was that he looked to preserve work that was already done- meaning he didn't seek out work just to make $$$. They have a patient coordinator, who can tell you where to stay, what to do, etc. All in all, it was a great experience, I took a chance and I'm glad I did it! I'll respond to any post.

I recently had extensive dental work done at Kriebel Dental. I would strongly recommend Dr. Mariano Kriebel and his staff to anyone looking for high quality work. The clinic was impeccable and always felt comfortable. Happy with my new smile.

I liked everything, I felt very safe and well taken care of. If I'm in the area and in need of a dentist, I now know where to go. Thank you.
Patrick Barry via Google 5.0 out of 5
This was absolutely my best dental experience. I had a very complex situation, but the dentist Dr Kriebel explained everything articulately. He gave me several options and his recommendations and took his time. Then, he and also Dr. Perez performed the procedures flawlessly. My mouth is ten times better, and as an American obviously I also saved a lot of money. I doubt I will need to be…

I just returned from 2 weeks in CR for a total mouth restoration. This dental practice is professional, skilled, kind and accommodating. The cost of my dental work was less than 1/2 of the US prices. These dentists are US trained and Dr Mariano Kriebel takes great pride in his work and makes sure everything is perfect. He worked late many nights to make sure my work was completed in my time…

I would like to express my appreciation and gratitude to Dr. Kriebel and everyone in Kriebel Dental who have created the most natural looking beautiful teeth for me. I had a complicated case and needed to have three veneers and one cap changed. I consulted several doctors both in the US and Europe and every single one told me that they wouldn’t be able to match veneers and a cap with my natural…

teeth thus recommending to have all front teeth covered by veneers. Dr. Kriebel was the only doctor who INSISTED on saving my natural teeth and created absolutely immaculate natural looking teeth that perfectly match with the rest of my teeth. It’s a miracle. I’ve saved a lot of money and have the smile I could only dream about. Dr. Kriebel is a doctor completely devoted to his job, it’s obviously his vocation, his passion, such professionals are rare. Thank you!

My husband and I have been coming to Dr. Kreibel for years after extensive research. Traveling all the way from Wisconsin was at first a little scary so I was the guinea pig and had one crown done. It went so well that we returned to Dr. Kreibel for every major dental work we needed. Between the two of us, I've lost count. About six implants including bone grafts, numerous crowns and more. Our…

dentist here in Wisconsin brags about the dental work we had done by Dr. Kreibel and at one time he even asked, " is he a genius?" This is because of how he had helped my husband who has some periodontal issues with a bridge type implant on the bottom of his mouth. We are planning another trip there because my husband needs two crowns and this time we are bringing our daughter who needs a couple crowns. We have saved so much money by going to Costa Rica and the dental care is superior to that of what we get in the states. Plus we get a nice vacation as a bonus. Lastly, if a periodontist is needed, they come right to Dr. Kriebel's office! Thank you Dr!!!

DESTINATION DENTISTRY It is my great pleasure to give the highest accolades to Dr. Mariano Kriebel, D.D.S. of Kriebel Dental in San Jose, Costa Rica. He earned both a Master of Science and a Post-Doctoral specialty in Prosthodontics from Ohio State University and practices with his father, who also earned the same prestigious degrees from Indiana University. They are both Board Certified by The…

American College of Prosthodontists. Dr. Mariano Kriebel represents the 4th generation in this esteemed dental practice. His work is precise. The entire office works as a harmonious team to assure that even the most extensive dental work is pure perfection. I encourage anyone contemplating major corrective dental work to contact Kriebel Dental for details on the substantial financial benefits of making the trip to Costa Rica. Dr. Kriebel’s artistry not only changed my smile, but it also improved the entire facial expression around my mouth. My bite is perfect and my entire mouthful of new crowns look beautifully natural. I am ecstatic with “the new me!” I suggest that you get a quote from a qualified specialist in the States and follow up by sending your X-rays to Dr. Kriebel in Costa Rica to compare estimates. You will be more than amazed at the value. An added benefit for out-of-country patients is that the office personnel can help you schedule tourist excursions around your dental work! Do not hesitate to contact the finest, most reputable prosthodontics practice you can find.

After extensive research for a dentist to do our teeth implants, we narrowed our choices to Dr. Kriebel and one other dentist in San Jose, Costa Rica. We had our consultations with both dentist during our first few days in San Jose and quickly decided that Dr. Kriebel is the better choice. Dr. Kriebel is frank and confident. His confidence is well-deserved because he was able to save the two…

failed implants that I had done somewhere else years ago. His treatment plan centers around the long-term dental health instead of just cosmetics in nature. He successfully completed implants for my husband who has worn partials for over 40 years. We are extremely satisfied and grateful to Dr. Kriebel for his care and expertise.

I had the pleasure of seeing Dr Kriebel for a recent dental appointment and I couldn't be more impressed. From the moment I walked in, Dr Kriebel was not only personable but also took the time to explain everything in detail. His honesty and his wisdom completely blew me away. It's rare to find a dentist with morals and integrity. I highly recommend Dr Kriebel for anyone who is seeking a dentist…

I flew in from Boston to San José to have my veneers changed, and what an experience it was. I arrived on a Saturday and had my first appointment with Dr. Mariano on Monday. The service was excellent from the start — professional, warm, and extremely detail-oriented. After our initial appointment, I took a short trip to the Caribbean coast and had an incredible time on some of the most beautiful…

l beaches I’ve ever visited. Costa Rica itself is an experience of its own — stunning nature, friendly people, and unforgettable moments. By Friday, I was back in San José to cement my new veneers. Dr. Mariano’s attention to detail is truly impressive. He is incredibly thorough, takes the time to explain every step, and makes sure you feel comfortable throughout the process. The quality of the dental work — as you can see in the picture — was immaculate. I was looking for a natural smile, and Dr. Mariano absolutely nailed it in both shape and color. It looks exactly how I hoped: clean, subtle, and confident. This was hands down the best dental experience I’ve ever had — and at a fraction of the cost of dentistry in the U.S. Highly recommend Dr. Kriebel to anyone considering high-quality dental care in Costa Rica.

Lois Williams via Google 5.0 out of 5
I did research on dentist in Costa Rica, to my surprise it took me two hours to make a decision for Dr kriebel to reconstruct my mouth. 8 implants top and bottom, 3 crowns to match my new teeth on top . Absolutely no pain from start to finish. He is very professional and meticulate , wanting perfection. Everyone in the office is warm and welcoming. Feels like family, recommendations to dine ,…

If you have dental issues that need a lot of changes, care, or cosmetic, I highly recommend Dr Kreibel and their office. I had so much anxiety going to my first appointment, not knowing what to expect and a lot of worry about the outcome but Dr Kreibel and their staff helped me by their kindness and understanding. Dr Kreibel’s work on my teeth enhanced my confidence and smile tremendously! I…

love smiling now and having my picture taken! I highly recommend them!

dennis goychuk via Google 5.0 out of 5
I had a failed implant, top, near the center. My US dentist said it is possible to have success only if I engage into some experimental dentistry that would cost me a fortune, literally. As I was on vacation in Costa Rica, I thought I would give it a try and trust Dr. Kriebel. Long story short, he did a fantastic job, and 6 months later I want to my US dentist so he would torque test it. I loved…

to see his face when it showed the implant is solid. I will be always grateful to Dr Kriebel and will be back for my other implant needs. Thank you from Minnesota!

I recently have extensive oral surgery with Dr. Kriebel and Dr. Rivera. I feel very fortunate to have found them and highly recommend them for their professional expertise and their sincere kindness and care. Integrity in letting me know exactly what was needed and charging me what I was quoted to the best of their ability. The staff are all very skilled and caring and assisted us in every way…

We were referred to Dr. Kriebel's dental office in San Jose Costa Rica for implants. First, we worked with Vivianne (the travel coordinator who was extremely helpful) to coordinate the trip. Prior to leaving the US we were able to speak with Dr. Kriebel about the procedures. He took time to call us and it felt very comfortable. He clearly has your best interests in mind and is adamant about making…

sure we understood everything. What a wonderful experience we had! Dr. Kriebel was kind, thorough, and saved us from having unnecessary work done that the oral surgeon in US insisted we needed. That type of work ethic is truly appreciated. His work was impeccable! He has a whole team of folks who specialize in many areas. We were impressed with his knowledge and his lengthy explanations of the procedures. And, shockingly, it was practically painless!! It really was an exceptional experience and would highly and with great confidence recommend his practice.
