    If American dentists don't like Americans going to Mexico to have their dental work done to save THOUSANDS of dollars, perhaps they should start LOWERING their prices to a reasonable level. Yeah, the American dentists are regulated, and that cost is passed directly on to the consumer. I literally can not afford to get dental work done in the US. It is prohibitively expensive. I am going to save up my money, do some research, and I am going to Mexico to have my freaking teeth worked on!

      You should see the prices here in Canada, I had one tooth pulled, as a matter of fact, it was half a tooth as it broke, and it cost me $450.00 I was in the chair for 20 minutes total time. Just to get all of my top teeth pulled I was quoted a price of $3800, not counting $1200 for a top plate. The dentists here are a bunch of thieves. I paint houses for a living and I went to price a dentists house to paint I quoted him $3000 to paint it and he just about had a heart attack, I told him that, that was the way us people feel when we go to see a dentist nowadays. I would have been there for a week, he makes that kind of money in an hour???? I didn't get the job, he said I was too expensive lol

    My teeth were falling out. Went to Mexico to have all of them pulled and got dentures. Total cost $2700. In the U.S. would have cost about $10,000. Took two days. Day 1 Xrays and fitting with a mold. Day 2 extractions and dentures ready and wore them back home to Arizona. American dentists overcharge. Worth it? DUH!!!

Walk approx 3 blks then right. It is several doors down on your left in a small plaza. Don't be afraid to stop and ask directions. Dra. Virginia is popular and has many USA patients. Locals are willing to help you find her.

There was not a day that went by, that he wasn't studying or learning new things.

    Saving a few hundred? One reason dental work is expensive in the U.S. is - in part - due to insurance for dentist. Why? Because so many engage in malpractice and end up getting sued for their malpractice. On top of that - many of the dentist treating you are from other countries themselves! Don't fall for this idea that somehow you are getting better treatment here just b/c the piece of land you are standing on has a different name.

They pulled a back molder that the roots went into the sinus lining they didn't tell me.... It ripped the sinus lining and infection started three sets of antibiotics later.... I started to get suspicious so I went to a specialist he asked me who the butcher was..... I had to have surgery and my vocals have not been the same..... Can I sue them, no I'm the little guy and they're protected...... Of course they don't want to lose business to Mexico.......

    "A few hundred bucks" is a misrepresentation. When you have to choose between medical treatment or having a place to live there is considerably more to think about. In Mexico you can save between 66% and 75% and as long as you do your homework first you can get really good treatment. The price difference is often measured in the thousands of dollars.
