Maybe you can elaborate on this "fiasco". The Dental Industry has been very good at self regulating and does NOT have the problems that the Medical Industry does in the US.

If people want to risk their health over a few bucks have at it. Knowing what I know and have seen building Dental Clinics for 30 years the trip across the boarder would NOT be for me.

Hooo ---eee - if only "we" knew what you know!!..:R

So - - you *built* dental clinics in Mexico? ROTFL

US or Mexico - does building clinics makes you an expert on dentistry - or on construction?..:@

What problems (in your esteemed opinion) does the "Medical Industry" have in the US?

OP - ignore the drivel - go over to the Escapees forums, search "Algodones" and/or "Los Algodones" - lots of info, satisfied patients, and *recommendations*.

Many dentists in Mexico are also licensed (and trained)) in the US - some practice dentistry on both sides of the border.

Easy to verify (US) college credentials.

:C

Credentials have NOTHING to do with the cleanliness of a Dental clinic.

I have built most likely more dental clinics in my career than anyone. I had to understand and execute every detail of building a clinic, for one silver brazing caped and clean copper and have independent testing of those lines before a certificate of occupancy could be issued. Those lines have to be clean to deliver the compressed air, nitrous and oxygen that are directly administered to your oral cavity. Lots more than I have time to explain here. Lot's of things to protect the health of the general public that I guarantee you the Mexican Government has no say in.

So go forth and save $$$ and risk your health I don't care. BUT for those that have an open mind think about what you are doing, your health is at risk.
