What is Mexico Dental care Like? In this video, Travel Expert, Jim Kellett interviews Dr. Karla M. Figueroa DDS, about dental costs and procedures in Puerto Vallarta Mexico. Karla is a Doctor of Dental Surgery and a Restorative Dentistry Specialist. She has offices in both Mexico City and Puerto Vallarta. Saving money is great but I also asked Karla about where she received her education and about the materials that they use here in Mexico. If you want to know how to find a good dentist in Mexico, don't worry, I’ll also give you some tips on how to find a good dentist in Mexico.
Why is dental tourism so popular in Puerto Vallarta?
Mexico is a top choice for dental tourism due to the quality of the dental care, and affordability… And the proximity to the United States makes it easy for many people to include a vacation in with their medical procedure.
Here are some examples of cost savings that we talk about in the video:
Full Porcelain/Ceramic Crown: USA $1,500, Mexico $340.
Porcelain Veneer per tooth: USA $1,200 or more;
Mexico $350 & zirconia for $450.
Root canal (any tooth): USA $1,200, Mexico $220.00.
For a titanium dental implant with abutment and standard crown in the United States: $3,900, the same procedure in Puerto Vallarta is around $1,400- $1,600.

Excellent video. Just had a crown done for $400 USD and the Dentist was Harvard trained in the USA and had just returned from a continuing education program there. Stellar work!
Who was the dentist, where are they located please?
Who was the dentist please?
What dentist did you use
So, you're just going to leave that comment & not respond? That's alot of help, cool thanks!
@@lisabuckner243 because someone fake wrote this post
A number of years back my company recommended dentist in Via Hermosa, Mexico was supposed to speak English. SURPRISE --He did not and after we went through the translation dictionary it became obvious that I needed a crown. I authorized the procedure and the dentist approached my chair with a drill. I looked at him and said drugs, Novocain, etc. He finally understood a shot me good. Later I fund that locals did not use deadeners because if the cost. Apparently he did a good job as I still have that gold crown 25 years later.
Don Hughes, Wow... Thanks for sharing your story.
Fun fact, the UNAM National Autonomous University of Mexico (in English ) is the largest university in Latin American and the most important university in Mexico, the faculty of dentistry is the oldest and the most prestigious school of dentistry in Latin America, you can also study dentistry at FES Iztacala or FES Zaragoza, both of UNAM, the Faculty of dentistry also has great relationships with other universities around the world such as Loma Linda, university at buffalo or Harvard, that’s why Mexico has the same quality in dental medicine than the USA 🦷👩🏻⚕️👀
Christian, Thanks for sharing the information.
I live in AZ. I just learned that there is a town 10 miles south of Yuma that is a dental tourist town full of well qualified and skilled dentists. Good luck, y'all!!
My pick is Los Algodones, which is a five minute walk from Andrade, California. That's the border crossing where California, Arizona and Mexico connect. After doing a lot of online research and sending my dental records to a half dozen dentists, I visited two dental practices in Los Algodones Feb 20-21 2024. My needs are full mouth restorations, "All On 4" upper and lower. I'll be going to the SANI Dental Group there in March for the first phase of this work. I selected them for a number of reasons. Certainly their online reputation is major, they are the largest and oldest in Los Algodones with a large staff covering every dental specialty. Other factors are the ability to have a complete package of dental specialists, the 3D imaging, the dental lab and even the hotel all (Cielito Lindo at Mediplaza) in one location at one price. My impression of SANI was a very professional, friendly, clean, well equipped place doing a large volume of patients. Even so I was seen by several dentists as my mouth, the x-rays and my history were examined. Comparing to USA estimates, the cost there will be 1/4 to 1/3 of American dentists.
@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?
50 years ago I had a tooth pulled when we were visiting Mexico. I got novacaine just before the tooth was pulled. Just a couple of minutes before. Wasn't numb. But it wasn't bad. We stayed in Mexico for 5 years and when I came back to the US the dentist that had worked on my grandmother's teeth when she was a teen checked me out. He said he had never seen such perfect teeth. Didn't need braces or fillings. It was because of all the fresh fruit and vegetables, the crusty bolillo rolls, pork rinds (chicharon) the sugar cane I peeled with my teeth and all the other food I ate that gave my teeth a workout. I couldn't believe how soft food was here in the US until I had my first fast food burger in the US. And I ate candy every day while living in mexico. And most of the time I forgot to brush my teeth. Within a year of being back in the US I had several cavities. And I was eating a lot less candy and brushing my teeth every day.
There are so many good dentists in Mexico. Modern practices where English is spoken if you wish. I go to a dentist in a mall, and it is cheap and very good!!
Anyone you can recommend? What did you get done?
@@amirahhakim-el3315 face lift !

Valerie Donovan, Thank you.
thanks your videos are great! could you do one on elective surgery. if your able to.
Great video! Very informative information
Glad it was helpful!
Your looking great and your videos keep getting better!
Thank you!
I had all on 4 dental implants done in Los Algodones two years ago. It has completely changed my life for the better! Do not hesitate to go to Mexico for dental work!
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 $8000 in some parts of MX. I’m looking into it.
One suggestion that I wish I had followed: see your local dentist to find out what you need to have done, or you could be in for a surprise.
Always very professional work with the camera and audio, I wanna go there to get implants the doctor very informative with the essential questions that you would ask.
Thomas Paine, Thanks for watching and supporting the channel. Dr. Karla M. Figueroa DDS, is very well educated. She comes from a multi-generation family of dentists and has great training. If I need implants, that is where I'm going since that is her specialty.
Great video , very good advice
Glad it helped
Timing is perfect, I need some dental work soon, last week got the shocking co$t of the work suggested in So. Cal. I'm strongly motivated to change my living situation. Been looking at videos and studying Spanish for about 3 years. Convergence of events and unhappy relationships with a couple of young types I rent my extra rooms to have me on the edge of moving on soon.
There is a dental college in Merida, and local high quality dentists, as I remember, will do implants for less than what the young lady quoted. Probably the same applies to dental clinics along the border also. I think one is likely to pay the most in Mexico City or Puerto Vallarta,
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 UA-cam 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!
Today I was quoted a price of $70,000 for upper and lower all on 4 full mouth restoration in Knoxville TN. The same procedure was also quoted to me this evening in Cancun Mexico for $16,000 plus the cost of lodging and plane ticket. It may be slightly more then this because I may need a bone graft on the lower jaw. Definitely going to Mexico.
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.
Excellent video. I am having my work done in Michigan, only because I have excellent insurance through my retirement. Otherwise, I would have opt for getting services done in Mexico. They have a much better bedside manner.
Great video... I go to a dental office in Los Algodones named Simply Dental. My dentists name is Dr. Friccia Gutiérrez. She is great. I have had four teeth removed, two bone grafts, sinus lift, two implant, a root canal and crown over the last five years. Very affordable, very clean and everyone speaks great english. I have saved thousands of dollars and gotten first class care. The doctor that did my implants at Simply dental is Dr. Danilo Gaspar, it's all he does. Simply Dental also has an endodontist on staff and they have their own lab to generate crowns etc...
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!
I had 4 dental implants done in Algodones Mexico about 10 years ago and never regretted it.
Very useful video.
Glad it was helpful!
Hey man you are the best for this video. Not much advice out here for someone trying to save money from the ludicrous dental prices in the US
Best dental service I’ve ever had…period
Can you please tell me more information where did you get your work done it in Tijuana?
Hats Off
Sani dental treated me very well. Great results
Malaysia and Thailand are also both popular for medical tourism.
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?
thank you for your video are there dental schools in Mexico for English speakers??
Thank you
D Walker, Thanks for supporting the channel!.
I currently rely on upper and lower dentures, but they're extremely uncomfortable and I'd love to explore other options. Dental implants have always been my dream, but the cost in the US is prohibitive. I've researched options in Mexico, but unfortunately, the prices haven't been significantly lower than what I've found here. If your office could offer a more affordable solution for dental implants, I would be very interested in discussing the possibility of treatment with you.
In India RCT cost is between 40 to 200 USD … and for 100+ USD i swear to god the quality is top notch. One of my uncle who stays in Texas did his RCT there while he went to India for vacation
do you do zirconian implants? with a zirconian post? I would like a holistic dentist.
do those clinics open in weekends?
really good video I went to A1 Smile Design in Playa they are great
How much is teeth cleaning in PV?
I'm a Canadian dentist going to Puerto Vallarta for 6 months next winter. If you need root canal, I strongly suggest to have your treatment done by a specialist (endodontist) since root canals are treatments are technically difficult to perform and require much experience.
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?
I live in San Antonio and am planning on visiting Piedras Negras - 3 hr drive - for a dental checkup. Any recommendations? TIA.
Make sure you research the dentist before getting anything done. There are several van life UA-camrs 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?
Here in Zwitzerland 1 ( one) implant ist about 2000 dollars
This is Dentist work. The wheel has been invented that is the reason why is inexpensive. I was down there last month and I paid $20 US for an emergency visit in a very nice hospital and good doctor. They explained what was the issue, why they perspired the medicine. All to very close details.
I went to Dr. Mexico Feb 11 2022... In Tijuana. The blue line trolley in San Diego takes you to the border. They pic you up literally across the street. 20 . First visit. I got two teeth pulled same day 75 each. Then... they have 15 percent off. I paid 147 to have two back teeth pulled. .. I guy stitches... listen to me guys... it's been over a week... if she didn't show me my teeth in a cup......I wouldn't believe she pulled them lol. No pain. No swelling. The meds are cheap and work Hella fast... you'll get them from the pharmacy they pick you up at..... going for a full mouth treatment... so I have a few more visits to make. Dr México... call. Speak to Hilda...
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
Get a recommendation from someone who lives there and make sure the dentist speaks English - not just staff. I thought I did all of my homework but I went through a dental tourism company and it was a nightmare. My teeth felt like sandpaper after the cleaning, I got bad, unnecessary fillings without an X-ray - after I thought I don’t even know if it was the dentist doing the procedure - how would I know? I know it sounds crazy but after I wondered if it was the hygienist who did all of the work. Get recommendations and not from the dentist. What a nightmare and I did a lot of research.
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???
From my research those numbers are all on the very high end like Los Angeles and New York dentists and comparable high costs in Mexico. Getting multiple referrals is most important. You can get quality work for substantially less than what she is quoting. But don't take my word. I suggest talking with other Americans who have gone or live there. Also I would highly recommend avoiding practices like the female dentist being interested and promoted in this video. A practice whose specialty is dental tourism is going to focus on foreigners as customers. Without listing all the redflags that invokes with me do your research. If it makes sense to you then you have been cautioned good luck. For me I want a dentist that specializes in good dentistry with no regard if you are from another country or local.
Do you know any dental clinic near Texas ? Thank you so much! I has been scammed by a lot of crooked dentists in US.
Always choose a good or the best dentists in mex.!!! Cause they have millions of offices there, and some not so good!

Wow! Who is your insurance company?
My good insurance will not cover over $275 of 20k in work. Does yours cover full caps?
I am in Mexico City now for dental. I am just getting started and so far it has been a rewarding experience. I am very pleased with the work so far. And of course the prices are much, much better than the US

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.

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
I have never been to Mexico, is a passport needed? Is a vaccination required? And how would I pay? Do they take charge cards? or would I have to bring cash and exchange it where?
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.

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.
What about a gold crown, would that work, or would that be too soft? Plus I could yank it out when I real old and broke to be able to buy food in the future
I was in an accident a several years ago that caused me to lose my bottom front tooth. It cost me $5000 to have my own tooth shoved back into the socket and bonded to the teeth beside it. A few years ago the tooth came out when I’ve bit into something. No my dentist is telling me I need $10,100 of work done. My smile has prevented me from dating in my prime in my 30s and now injuring my 40s it’s preventing me from getting the work that I deserve because of my smile. I don’t have $10,000 laying around and I’m looking to go to Mexico to get the work done. I just need to find a Decent dental clinic in Mexico that’s the closest to Florida.
One implant in MX is like $750. Fuck that Dentist.
Dumb question maybe but you have health insurance right? Do you keep American or get a policy in Mexico.
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: ua-cam.com/video/y7zoQuyFlqU/v-deo.html

I found it more expensive than TJ and 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.

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.

No doctors name, license number, phone number or email, no street address. no map to show location. No government number to verify doctors license. I would love to go, but need so much more info.
Yes I did this in 2020. I ended up with a massive infection and disfigured. Name of the dentist was Lopes in Algodones. The bridge fell out after one and a half years and now I am going to try my luck with a 2nd dentist in the same city. Fingers crossed. I had 5 front upper teeth crowned in Thailand. They all fell out.
Unfortunately I just have to roll with this. I just can't afford the dentists in America. So I go to Mexico even though I know I am rolling the dice. My story is quite common. Sorry but dentists in Mexico are just not as good as American dentists. You just have to hope you get lucky and find someone who isn't ruthless. Often they hope you will blow away when things go wrong.
It is a crapshoot.
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.
colombia is even cheaper, i paid 1500 usd for a implant and 100 usd for a root canal lol

No thank you I get free cleanings & exams here in the US.
Everything in USA is overpriced
Dental hygienist here. The most important aspect is infection control. People try to save a few bucks and risk infections. They get poor work to then have to have the work repeated a couple of years down the line. A periodontic deep cleaning is different from a propholactic teeth cleaning. I'm not saying there aren't good dentist outside the U.S, but you don't want to know the poor dentisty I've seen done in other countries using inferior hardware. How do you know instruments are getting correctly sterilized and the training received? One failed sterilized drill bit or scaler and you may be exposed to something you weren't counting on.
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 Dental just came out with a new policy here in the states that everyone is getting. Wait a year and they handle the implant, crown, and follow up for the same price as Mexico. For once I'd like to think about dental care without thinking about entering war torn Mexico!
