How do you feel about dental travel tourism?

Has anybody been to Mexico to get their teeth done?

What are your thoughts?

A lot of people go to Colombia, but recently I’ve heard Mexico and even Turkey are hot spots…

Chime in if you’ve had any work done out of the country but only at reputable medical spas, doctor offics and clinics none of that my friend knows someone LOL please keep anything that was not done by a certified medical professional to yourself 😭😄😂

Cross Turkey off your list. The trip alone will set you back a few grand.

Go to Mexico. If I find one, I'll let you know.

I have a great dentist in Mexico. One of these teeth used to be chipped and ‘dead’ and I had a gap that he also closed with epoxy or some other shit like resin. It’s hard to tell which one, right?

He has a litttle office right on the ocean cliffs area near puerto Nuevo.

Oh and all the work I just mentioned was $150 lol

I went to one after doing a lot of research for a couple implants. That was three years ago and had a great experience. Still see him yearly for cleanings. Sorry, in TJ

You will be in good hands with Dental Smalte in downtown Rosarito.

I’m a dentist. I really don’t recommend it. There is no recourse when things go wrong and if you are having something complicated done then it is a big possibility …complications may happen. I have seen a lot of the work done abroad. It s a big time hit or miss. When it goes wrong it can be really catastrophic

Los Algodones, Baja California is quite literally known for being the Dental capital of the world. People come from all over the United States and Canada to this tiny little town on the border of California, Arizona, and Baja. It is about 15 minutes from Yuma, Arizona. DM me your number , and I will give you the name of my dentist there. There are over 900 Dentist in a six block area, so it helps to have at least one that is recommended to you, lol

Took a good friend to Bio Dental in TJ after cracking front tooth and getting estimates in OC for over 10K to do that fix as well as a few others on the top. Bio is a five minute, $5 uber from the border, the dentists work there as well as on the US side. I've never seen an office this clean, the dentists and assistants are friendly and professional and are thankful that you've made the choice to use them. My friends dental work took 3 trips to complete but they did the whole thing for 5k and she gets nothing but compliments and her new teeth. I highly recommend.

Side note! Bio is a short walk from a place called the Quartz Hotel which is connected via a bridge to a medical tower. Sitting there eating lunch I noticed a bunch of dudes hanging around which is when I learned about medical tourism. The guys were hanging out while their wives were in the tower getting tits, asses and everything in between. People from all over the world come there to get a tune up.

I may or may not have dropped in to Hong Kong's.
