Totally second the recommendation for Dra. Vanessa Lambiz. I went to her for 16 years for everything from just regular cleaning, to gum pockets. She's professional, definitely knows what she's doing, speaks perfect English if you need it and is a sweetheart.
I believe a molar extraction can (or maybe should) be done only by an oral surgeon, not a dentist. You therefore have to go to David or go to a Boquete dentist who will bring in an oral surgeon from David. I had excellent luck with Dra. Patricia Morales in Hospital Chiriqui, who came here and performed the extraction of a wisdom tooth in the office of Dra. Monica Sanjur. Dra. Morales can be reached at 775-2689, 775-2699, or 6673-9910. She speaks English. And it may be that there are optional treatments other than extraction (e.g., root canal) that she will advise you on after examination.
Dr. Octavia Ortega in David. Cell# 6983 0004. Speaks english, modern office, just had a molar pulled and will have a bridge in place this week. Very satisfied!

He wouldn't do a molar extraction, he would call in an oral surgeon.
You would be paying for both $$$$.
Thank you all for some very good recommendations. Really appreciate them

are you asking for your Jubalido discount when going to these other Dr.?
I am not a Jubliardo so can't answer.
Had a molar extracted last month by Dra Vanessa Lambiz ( in Chiriqui hospital - ground floor).
Took 9 minutes, didn't feel a thing, cost $50. She is fantastic...my go to girl for all things teeth.
and believe me I am a COMPLETE baby when it comes to dentistry!
How much does she charge for a cleaning Diane?
