We have used Dr Garita for years. It is worth flying from the US to see him if you have a problem.
I Saw Dr. Garita in 2006 for implants, 3 wisdom teeth take out and cavities filled. He was amazing and very professional. My implant are still perfect. Seeing him was the best choice ever. Would recommend 1000%

Thanks for your kind words Michelle!!! What a joy and pleasure to read your words and recommendation!!!
Best experience ever. I went in 2009 for one implant and had some cavities taken care of as well. Doctor is very professional. When I got back to US my dentist said he had never seen such a perfect implant.
