Anyone you can recommend? What did you get done?

Valerie Donovan, Thank you.

Glad it was helpful!

@Chris-lp3dm, Thanks for sharing your detailed, personal experience. I'm sure some people will find it helpful.

So this may be a stupid question but do any of these places accept what our insurance coverage is and allow patients to pay the difference?

So how did it go now your done?

How much did it cost altogether?

Thomas Paine, Thanks for watching and supporting the channel. Dr. Karla M. Figueroa DDS, is very well educated. She comes from a multi-generation family of dentists and has great training. If I need implants, that is where I'm going since that is her specialty.

How much per crown? And root canal?

How much ??

@@djkenny1202 Crown is $250 with a 3 year warranty, root canal is $300.

@@alineylis5195 Bone graft $200, Sinus lift $700, Implant $800 per tooth.

wow!! that's great : ). Thanks for sharing!

Thank you!

How much was the total cost?

@@Jadelove17 $19,000

@@garynolan4131 pretty expensive

@@djkenny1202 LOL! Compared to $40,000-$60,000 in the states?

@@garynolan4131 it should be like $4000. USAxis just insane, but a full set of Crowns on every single tooth is 28500 in USA. Of course under $8000 in some parts of MX. I’m looking into it.

Website?

Can I get the info please

I had my all on 4 in Mexico and I’m very happy I went tp Tijuana

I just booked my trip today for Cancun Dental Specialists. American trained and certified. 20k quote here in Chattanooga TN and just under 8k there plus 1k for flight and my stay for 8 days. Now I am just worried about all the violence... ugh

Cancun Dental Specialists. Just make sure to factor in travel expenses because plane tickets right now are crazy.

Glad it helped

Glad it was helpful!

Brian Richards, Thanks for sharing your information.

I’m looking to go through Dayo dental here in the United States that connects you with a dentist closest to wherever you want to travel in Mexico. I think they take a lot of seniors across the border. But I am in Florida and I’m gonna have to fly there by myself. I found this on KZfaq but I’m not sure how reliable they are. I hope it’s honest .

I had a total restoration done @ this school you mentioned. 4 root canals, 5 teeth extracted and upper and lower partials. $ 532 $ USD and 8 months in 2018. Excellent work. Saludos

@Happy US $532 = total cost? 8 mths = amt of time the procedures took (or, were spread out over)? I ask about the time because I might have say 1 mth to get it (what you had) completely done. Thx in anticipation for your answer. Adios!

Can you please tell me more information where did you get your work done it in Tijuana?

D Walker, Thanks for supporting the channel!.

India is good too. Columbia and Brazil would be really good for plastic surgery. 😀

Guatemala Dental Group, Oscar and Rodrigo Guerra killed (paralyzed) my inferior alveolar, mental, lingual nerves in two different surgeries 7 weeks ago. The pain was excruciating, I spent $1500 to have their implants removed and materials attempting to reverse the numbness and all the functions associated. I am a dentist of 50 years. If they would carelessly do that to a DENTIST, imagine...YOU?

Are you a real person?

@@justcallmeray21 I'm waiting for an answer too.

You sounds like a mess. I would not take your advice on a car wash.

In CA the state offered extractions for $5.

Can you refer me to the one you went to I'm looking to get my whole Crown done top and bottom

Yes. The prices she quoted are much MUCH higher than what the Mexican people pay for those procedures. The prices are jacked up for tourists. It's a better plan to get full X-Rays & complete dental work plan recommendation for all the work you need done before going, get a trusted Mexican friend and have them call & ask quality dentists with great reviews via Google, how much prices would be for all those procedures for their friend who's visiting from another town. Request same from several recommended dentists, and compare carefully before choosing. Even visit and look around with out talking 1st, to help decide. Shrug & go "mmmm" with a Mexican accent if they ask anything, & leave, before choosing. Once a bad dentist screws you up, it's a bit late to correct a rushed decision. THEY, however, are often desperate to make more money and wish to rush you into selecting services asap. THEY don't want you to be so careful, usually. The dentist I had in Mexico, DF, gave the impression underneath facades, that since the majority of the population is quite poor, the degreed, educated higher earners have to desperately compete for the money of the few who can afford their prices. Try sharing pleasantries too often, or your plan for all people to have dream houses, and experience them tell YOU, that THEY charge by the hour to give talks, and don't have time for any of your conversations. Having been educated in the US, my dentist & her dentist husband, while striving to hide it and act nicely all the time, showed bits of underlying racism and hatred for the much higher income of most Americans, and the fact they have to pay the same prices Americans pay for cars, electronics, tools & machinery PLUS shipping from the US to Mexico, for most of those things, so have to try much harder than you & do way more to have prosperity than you, so they don't have time for pleasantries with you and giving you advice a lot of times, but that was just my dentist after going almost every day for a couple months to bleach my teeth super white and get ALL my mercury fillings removed and super white inlays and overlays to replace the fillings removed and plus 2 bridges. She botched the job in the end, because everything she did eventually fell out. It looked beautiful for a whole year though.

Where exactly was this?

@@valerieann8007 So, a US dentist should provide a treatment plan and then you´ll play being a dental shopper and ask for quotes online or by phone and expect reputable Mexican dentists to provide a quote on a mouth they have never seen? Is it me or are you just nuts? I have seen so many crazy US treatment plans for procedures people do not need at all but since your US dentist (generally you never see a specialist thb) told you what you need, you mistrust Mexican dentists and their treatment plans. In that case, get a better job in the US and do your dental work there.

Where was this? Which dentists???

My Canadian dentist wants to charge me 1/2 my annual salary for my root canals and crowns. Then he berates me not getting the word done right away. Do you have a solution?

How about broken files in my tooth as well from a US professional -

@@sherunswithscissors you are free to get a second opinion by another dentist. then you can make an informed decision.

@@valerievitality413 this is an accident not a malpractice. I suggest you ask your dentist at least try to remove it with ultrasounds, but chances are low your tooth will survive long term.

@@dianel3463 - My second opinion was higher. So if it was 1/2 your annual salary what would you do?

😂🦷😬

Magdalena Villaseñor Martinez, Thanks for sharing your Dad's experience.

Hello could you please share what clinic he got them done at?

Do you have the name of the dental office in Mexico City you recommend? I’m currently looking at a few offices

Not really my Medicare & extra help I have in the US covers everything!!!

Smile Clinic on Medellin 153 I am so happy i went. The other comment that medicare covered their dental work? I find that amazing because i am a senior citizen and i can't imagine how they got that coverage. I am entitled to medicare but it covers close to nothing. This was an emergency. I had suffered 2 terrible infections and knew the danger i was in. I am so grateful for the incredible work i received for a truly reasonable fee. I plan to go back next May and taking friends with me who also need the help. Best of health to you.

@@maureenharrison6170 what was your cost if you don’t mind and how long to get an appointment?

@@emmamullendore5682 Smile dental clinic on 153 Medelin. I was there last May. I can't say enough good things about them. I want to go back again this year for a bit more work. The cost was around 4000. It was a fraction of the cost of what it would be in the states

Make sure you research the dentist before getting anything done. There are several van life KZfaqrs who have posted horror stories about using dentists who were right across the border where you're going. I'm not trying to disparage Mexican dentists. You get bad ones sometimes regardless of where you go. These people went for cleanings, fillings, implants and dentures. None of them had a positive experience. They got infections, were not prescribed anything for pain, the implants failed. They were out the money that they spent, plus had to pay a dentist in the states to fix all of the problems. Chances are, if you see a dentist in Mexico that is recommended by the local people, you should be okay. If you just see some random dentist who practices in the border towns, you probably won't be okay.

Did you go?

One implant in MX is like $750. Fuck that Dentist.

Los Algodones is where you are going if you're smart. If it is close enough and you can afford the travel.

Awwwww go wherever

Wow! Who is your insurance company?

My good insurance will not cover over $275 of 20k in work. Does yours cover full caps?

Fuck it

My dentist charges $1000 for it Delta Dental allowed $775, I was charged $75. In Huntington Woods, MI, outside of Detroit. No problems with infection months later, he is a very good and thorough dentist.

@Sociology Your comment totally confuses me. Pls re-write: I can't figure out what the charges were for and by whom. Thx, & blessings.

Passport required to return through USCIS, although some say license and birth certificate is good enough. Vacs not necessary. Call clinics to find payment options.

@@sociologynut8033 Thanks for the info 👍

CDS Cancun Dental Specialist

I found it more expensive than TJ and Molar City

@@djkenny1202 Thanks, I was quoted by oral surgeon $10k for the 5 anchors, and $9 k from the dentist for the abutment and 5 crowns. 19k total. Gonna try Molar city.

@@sociologynut8033 definitelyz!! I chose 6 crowns in porcelain to start. It would be a solid $350 each in most of molar city-about $2200 ish. With insurance, my out of pocket is about the same. I had to find a dentist willing to do a section a time so my insurance covered maximum. Next year I finish my bottom 4 teeth in need, about $900 out if pocket, then the remaining top teeth next to those 6 (3crowns, each side on top already done). It’ll be another 1500 bucks likely.

Car Ric, Personally I have a travel/medical insurance policy. It covers a dental emergency but not any general work like cavities or cosmetic procedures. My insurance is worldwide except in the USA and cost me about $100 USD per month. Here is a video that has a lot of information about insurance: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r52qorSm3qzQoYk.html

doo mexico or colombia or san jose costa rica

My Dominican ex girlfriend's filling fell out. Nothing is high quality there.

@@sociologynut8033 thank you so much for that

@@danesilver1714 ok Thank you

How many times you go back to turkey tog get done how much it is cost full implants I need to get my peace

I’ve paid for and lost two crowns that were done in the US as well as a veneer that broke with in a month.

@@emmamullendore5682 Yes I have also had problems with American dentists. Everything from yanking an implant out of the bone to splitting a tooth vertically. The problem with Algodones is that the word is out that a neverending stream of American dollars are availble if you call yourself a dentist and set up shop. The latest dentist I have found there seems to have done a good job on an upper, 3 tooth bridge rght at the front. So they are there if you search. This latest guy has a huge practise and is right by the border crossing. He doesn't even advertise on Google Mpas. I don't think he needs to.

Can you please list contact information?

Dentistry in Brazil really is of high level

Can you recommend a dentist or two in Sao and Rio? Hopefully they have got English speaking dentists.

How do you know they are sterilizing there equipment here ? Why because the name America comes with the overpriced bill?

The same thing you are suggesting in your comment can be applied to dentists in the United States. In the case of Mexico, rarely does someone other than a doctor touch your mouth, even if it is for a simple cleaning or whitening. Pay thousands of dollars so that you end up being treated by someone who is not even a doctor.

How does this apply to seeking affordable dental care?

In Mexico dental hygienists do not exist, no room for such positions. Even dental assistants are dentists.

Delta is an HMO. Most dentists in the US do not accept HMO plans.
