Dentist in Mexico

Looking for info on dental work in Mexico. Just received a rough quote on DW and it is about
$25000.00 for posts and bridge. Had a friend get similar treatment for $ 7000.00 and like to get some info/name of good experience. Thanks Ed
  • https://www.dentaldepartures.com is a great resource. We've used Ciro Dental for a few years and have had cleanings, crowns and my DW has had an implant there. There are dental labs in Los Algodones so a crown, etc. only takes a couple days.
    We did try one of the large clinics once because our Dentist was out of town and were thoroughly disappointed. First we had to pay up front, then came the hard sell for all kinds of services. Finally after sitting over an hour waiting for our cleaning and seeing people walking up and getting serviced before us we decided to give up. Took over an hour to get our money back.
    There are a couple hundred dentists in Los Algodones so there is much competition to provide great prices and service. Nice parking lot at the border, walk across, then go through customs to get back into the USA.
    Bring your Rx's list and check out eyeglass prices there also.
  • You are in California. Many snowbirds go to Algadones,Mexico . Just over the border from Yuma
    You can park on the US side and walk across. We have never visited those dentists but thousands have done so and are pleased. Many of the dentists do exceptional work and have ultra modern facilities. Do some googling.
