Do you want to get your smile back but don’t know what you need?
In this initial appointment we will give you an Xray and get a number of different photos of your mouth so that the Doctor can give you an exact diagnosis of what you need. Then, we will explain which are the priorities and which would be the work that needs to be done. Do not hesitate on asking questions. We love to answer all of your doubts.
Our Team
Dr. Franklin
Thanks to my childhood and to my family I was able to develop my fine motor skills which, years later, would be a great skill for my profession. That is how I learned to appreciate the paths of my life and where I come from.
And, if you ask me, when I was about to enter college, I was not too clear about what I wanted to study. However, if I had to choose again, I would choose to become a dentist.
In my field, I have specialized in esthetic rehabilitation and dental restoration. I graduated 20 years ago and since then I opened my own Dental Clinic in Pursical. This was my first project and it makes me very happy to still be able to help my patients from this community
For me this is not a job, it is a challenge and at the same time a pleasure. Dr. Frankiln
Dr. Erick
I discovered my passion in a statistics college course where I had classmates that were studying dentistry. And, as I saw them working with wax cubes to mold teeth, to me it was like seeing art. Without realizing it, it was very simple for me to do it, too. I had a skill which thanks to a little bit of curiosity helped me to find my passion.
As part of my career, I completed a master’s program in oral surgery and implant dentistry at the University of Barcelona. In Costa Rica, I currently work in oral surgery, implant placement, bone regeneration and implant rehabilitation.
I worked 4 years in Barcelona in private clinics, Adeslas Clinics and here in Costa Rica I have worked at a number of different dental clinics.
For me, odontology is an art and with it I found my passion. Dr. Erick

Services
Orthodontics
It is the branch of dentistry that works with treating bite problems which are closely related to health and esthetics. It is the one in charge of realigning and improving the incorrect position of teeth, which becomes an integral task able to improve patient esthetics beyond the smile.
It is possible to begin the process of corrective orthodontics from an early age from the moment that a faulty growth of the jaw is detected or a position of the pieces is seen to be out of line.
There are several types of orthodontics which are handled at Oris:
- Traditional with esthetic brackets and sapphire braces.
- Invisible with Invisalign. It consists in the use of cases similar to retainers which are replaced according to patient needs. It must be worn for 22 hours a day and only come off for eating and hygienic practices.

It is the branch of dentistry in charge of children’s dental care. Its main functions include prevention of ailments and also eliminating the possibility of cavities. This is possible thanks to follow ups throughout the developmental years in order to monitor structures and to ensure that hygienic habits are adequately being followed.

Endodontics
Endodontics is a dental treatment which consists of eliminating the deeper part of a tooth due to it being damaged because of a lesion or infection.
This treatment is used to avoid extraction of a tooth and help it stay healthy so that it can fulfill its role.
With the service of endodontics, we help you with nerve treatments and periodontics. This last one is the branch of dentistry in charge of all that is related to the health of gums.
