Mexican dentists
Going to be in south Texas in Aug and was thinking about having some dental work done there. I see the area across Weslaco has like 100 dentists. Any recommendations? Or other info.

My dentist in the U.S. charged me $2200 for a set that I couldn't wear due to the pain and lacerations they caused. I fought with him for a year and finally gave up.
Yup, doesn't pass the sniff test does it.
That dentist is my old family dentist...been going to him for over thirty years, but, in his old age he has changed, we all do. When we retired, we move ed 2.5 hours away, but, until that episode, the wife and I always made the trip to use his services. As already mentioned, there is very little recourse, short of legal action, if a dentist digs in his heels once he has your money. I did check and a civil suit would cost more than the money I was out and my wife, who still has her teeth still likes going to him and I won't jeopardize her relationship with him.
I can easily afford a US dentist, but, why spend four times as much? I didn't get to where we are today by wasting my money...I will gladly pay for quality, but, for a perfect fitting pair of dentures, which would you rather pay, $2200 or $500?
I've found a perfect replacement for his services in Nogales and since we spend our winters in Benson, she is only 45 minutes away...closer, better, and much cheaper and I can get the Tequila for substantially less.
