Meet Telma Rubinstein, DDS
Medical Tourism pioneer and practice co-founder, Dr. Telma Rubinstein, earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Costa Rica in 1983. After many years of practice, Dr. Rubinstein saw the need to advance her studies in the field of dental implants, so she obtained additional training in the science of tooth replacement in 2001. Dr. Rubinstein has also received advanced training in cosmetic dentistry in Switzerland, implant dentistry in Montreal, Costa Rica, and the University of Miami, and in periodontics in the USA. She is fully trained in all aspects of full-mouth restoration. She maintains active memberships in the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, USA and the Prosthodontic Section of the Collegium Internationale of Oral Implantologists, USA.
After earning her dental degree, Dr. Rubinstein and her husband Dr. Josef Cordero saw the need for affordable dental care in Costa Rica for the many travelers who vacation here. Knowing they could meet this need, Drs. Rubinstein and Cordero founded Prisma Dental, Costa Rica, with the sincere wish to help a global audience access expert dental care at affordable prices. With her focus on full-mouth restorations and cosmetic makeovers, Dr. Rubinstein loves to raise a patient’s self-esteem and provide the dental education necessary to ensure a lifetime of excellent oral health.

Meet Josef Cordero, DDS
Medical Tourism pioneer and practice co-founder Dr. Josef Cordero earned his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Costa Rica in 1982.

With his focus on the surgical placement and rehabilitation of dental implants, Dr. Cordero has pursued continuing education with a passion. He has received advanced training in cosmetic dentistry in Switzerland, implant dentistry in Montreal, Costa Rica, and the University of Miami, and in laboratory technician supervision. He maintains active memberships in the International Congress of Oral Implantologists, USA and the Prosthodontic Section of the Collegium Internationale of Oral Implantologists, USA.
Seeing that many travelers to his native Costa Rica desired expert dental care at lower prices than they could find back home, Dr. Cordero and his wife Dr. Telma Rubinstein established Prisma Dental, Costa Rica, with the mandate to provide a full suite of services, including a dental lab and supply company. While returning the function and esthetics of your smile, Dr. Cordero takes a collaborative approach with your care. By fully understanding your needs, he is able to recommend a variety of treatment options so you can feel confident with your choices.

In his spare time, Dr. Cordero enjoys four-wheeling, biking, and traveling. He affectionately calls the family dog Chewy and takes more pleasure than he knew possible from their Koi pond.
Meet Carolina Núñez, DDS
After earning her bachelor’s degree in Journalism from the Universidad Latina de Costa Rica in 2004, Dr. Núñez joined the team at Prisma Dental as a dental assistant. Seeing the profound difference that Drs. Rubinstein and Cordero made in their patient’s lives, Dr. Núñez knew that her true passion lay in cosmetic and esthetic dentistry, so she went back to school and earned her general dentistry degree in 2013. With dedicated training in Cosmetic & Aesthetic dentistry, Dr. Núñez has developed the skills and artistry working with resin to help transform her patients' smiles.
Dr. Núñez understands how the look of your smile can have a tremendous impact on how it feels for you to smile and laugh – or even how accepted you feel in social situations. With a strong desire to help you overcome these feelings, Dr. Núñez places her focus on helping you love your smile so you can feel more confident in every area of your life. Dr. Núñez’s greatest joy is seeing how happy and satisfied you are with your dental work and knowing that this decision may have changed your life.
When she is not helping her family of patients love their smiles, Dr. Núñez shares her home and life with two Maltese dogs named Elvis Presley and Tony Bennet. In her spare time, Dr. Núñez enjoys going to the movies, and like many who visit her homeland of Costa Rica, she loves exploring new restaurants and going to the beach. When you meet Dr. Núñez, you may recognize one of her lips from our logo! Hers is the bottom lip and a kind patient gave permission to use hers as the top.
