Mexico Dentist Costs are way lower for the same procedures.
Carla Sanchez, Presidente' of
the Board Certified Mexico Dentist Association.
There’s never been a better time
to visit a dentist in Mexico according to US dentist Dr. Nelson Henry DMD of
Wyndham Maine. The dentist owns 2 clinics in New England and during the
economic crisis of the past several years the doctor has seen more and more of
his patients unable to obtain affordable big treatments such as crowns,
bridges, cosmetic dental makeovers and dental implants.
So he acquired a Mexican dental
vacation website – About Mexican Dentists.com and soon became the very first US affiliate of
the Board Certified Mexico Dentist Association.
He insists on using the services
of certified Mexican dentists exclusively since they have had years of
additional training in the advanced procedures most dental tourists are
searching for and incredibly – cost the same as far less trained general
dentists who like their US counterparts – only learn the basics in dental
college - cleanings, drilling, filling and normal non-surgical extractions.
Despite howls of disapproval from
fellow dentists in the US, Dr. Henry began sending patients to a certified Cabo
dentist and dentist in Puerto Vallarta 2 years ago on Mexican dental vacations
where they could get their cosmetic dentistry and dental implants for a
fraction of the cost in the USA or Canada – and without waiting
weeks for an appointment.
Most crown or veneer work under a dozen teeth takes
about a week according Cabo dentist Dr. Limon while a complete cosmetic dental makeover or full-mouth oral restoration may take up to two weeks
As the recession deepened –
dentists in the US began turning off their clinic lights, the water pumps on
their chair side cuspidors and closing their doors. Others began dropping their
prices from $1,500 for a crown to $850 in some big cities. According to US
dentist Dr. Henry - he heard one dentist in a small Appalachian town lowered his crown
price to $495. But Dr. Henry couldn't find the place
Pass me another shot of
tequila” said Puerto Vallarta dentist Dr. Terre Valle reacting to the news. “We
had to do something or see our foreign patient business dry up.” In recent
years, US and Canadian dental tourism rose to as much as 70% of a clinic’s
patients for some Cabo and Puerto Vallarta dentists.

members have fought back according to the Puerto Vallarta dentist. Dr. Valle says that a recent survey shows some Mexico dentists recently lowered their prices for a porcelain/metal crown
to only $455usd on average – down from as much as $595 in recent years.
Mexico Dentist Prices
The Puerto Vallarta dentist calculated If you are having a cosmetic dental makeover with 27 new crowns – that saves you $150 per tooth or $4050 vs. the old Mexico dentist price of $595 per unit. It gets even better when you compare the newly lowered Mexico dental price of $455 vs. the normal lowest price of $850 some US dentists are charging.

You get a savings of approx. $10,900 for your new Hollywood smile!
I don’t care much for math. But I
love this Mexican dental arithmetic for there’s nearly enough savings in the solution to buy myself a good pickup.
Finally a word of advice from Dr.
Henry: He cautions that general dentists in the US are not permitted to
attempt advanced dentistry without years of additional formal training and
certification. In Mexico – the
government looks the other way letting general dentists circumvent attending
years of specialist dental college, learning advanced dental procedures by practicing
on their patients! Go with a board certified dentist when in Mexico so you know your Mexican dentist is properly trained and you will get what you are paying for.
With over 85% of Mexico dentists
being general dentists and many wanting the foreign dental patient’s big budget
treatment work – a patient needs to be sure of what kind of dentist they are
getting and should insist on a board certified Mexico dentist for any advanced dental
procedures such as a root canal, crown, dental makeover, any oral surgery or
dental implants in Mexico.
Dr Henry concludes: “A fully
accredited and trained certified Mexico dentist who will give you superior
dental work costs the same as a much-less trained general dentist in Mexico.”
