Greetings thebug622

I had a similar question a couple of years ago (in Bogotá)
I had a dentist that I was really happy with but I felt they were sometimes "creative" and at best "inconsistent" with pricing and I eventually got the hump with them.

I asked for a referral and found a great dentist in Clinica Marly which is conveniently around the corner from where I live in Chapinero. It is a private clinic full of specialists, not just dentistry.

I have not required any major work since I went to him (previous dentist did root canal, onlay and a crown for me) but he specialises in implants and the friend that referred me has had some fairly major work done with him. (He is a Texan that comes to Colombia and also gets his teeth fixed up whilst he is here)

My only concern is that you are only here for 2 weeks and you are moving around a bit. Are you sure you will have time in Bogotá to get your new teeth back from the lab and fitted?

Your post serves as a timely reminder, I need to book a check-up and a scale and polish, I will gladly enquire re ballpark pricing for your bridge

Happy chewing

JC
