Dental Implants in Mexico a Full Guide:

Mexico is a well-known international destination, and not everyone knows that you can save a lot of money on dental care with a high-level dentist. Cancun is the top tourist destination in Mexico and the perfect place to undergo a dental procedure without sacrificing quality, while enjoying the beautiful destination

Is it a good idea to get dental implants in Mexico?
Here are 15 reasons why Mexico is a good idea to get dental implants.

1. Is it safe to get Dental Implants in Mexico?

There is a lot of misinformation when it comes to the safety of Mexican dental tourism. However, tens of thousands of US patients have received high-quality dental work in Mexico, and if you know where to go, it is very safe.
Of course, parts of Mexico are not recommended for tourists, but border towns and popular tourist cities are safe and cater to foreign dental patients.
In Cancun you will find a great place to combine a great vacation with your dental work.

2. Will I get quality dental implants from a highly-trained dentist in Mexico?

Well, maybe yes and maybe no, depending on where you go and who you see for your dental work. Unfortunately, dental tourism has become so popular in the last two decades; many popup “dentists” are not qualified to practice dentistry. This can give dental work in Mexico an unfairly negative reputation. But this is not the norm.
In our clinic, you will find a variety of dental specialist doing what they do best, you won’t be treated by the hygienist or a general dentist for your implants, you will have a dental implantologist taking care of your case from A to Z

3. Can I really save thousands of dollars in cost for dental implants in Mexico?

The national average cost for a dental crown in the US is $1,200 to $2000; in Mexico, it’s $250 to $600.
A full set of traditional dentures can cost up to $5,000 in the U.S.—about $600 in Mexico.
If you need major dental work, you can get affordable, high-quality dental work and highly likely save thousands of dollars coming to Dental Design Studio Cancun.
On average, our patients save 50%-75% on dental work in our dental offices in Mexico. You can save $3,500 with a single tooth implant and crown alone.
Sometimes we can’t match other dental clinic prices because they can’t match our quality

4. Do Mexican offices use modern, high-tech equipment for dental implants?

Our state of the art dental clinic in Cancun is well equipped with some of the latest diagnostic equipment, i.e., X-ray machines, 3D cone beam digital imaging, and sophisticated systems to produce perfect dental prostheses.
In addition, we are one of the few dental clinic with our own Digital Dental Lab, to ensure a perfect fit for every work in the less possible time.

5. Do the Mexican dentists and staff speak English?

Yes, all our doctors and staff speak fluent English. From the driver that picks you up at the airport to the dental specialist that works on your treatment.

6. Do I need a passport and visa to get dental treatment in Mexico?

Crossing into Mexico on a border-town, you don’t need to show any documents; however, crossing back from Mexico through a U.S. border, you will need proper documentation—a valid passport.
Contrary to this law, since Americans have been crossing Mexico’s northern border for dental work, you can usually cross back into the U.S. with a valid driver’s license and a copy of your birth certificate.
Talk with us about the required documents you’ll need, and we’ll guide you. If you are flying to Cancun you will need a passport to come back to the U.S.

7. Does the lower cost of dental implants in Mexico equate to lower quality?

No one wants to compromise on health care quality by taking a cheaper route, and you shouldn’t need to. In the U.S., some of us were raised to believe that higher costs equal higher quality.
This is not the case with dental work in Mexico. Cost-cutting does not mean they’re using lower-quality ingredients. From porcelain crowns to metal posts and dentures, our approved dentists use the same materials in your mouth as you would if you received dental work in the U.S.
It’s simply that in a country like Mexico, the cost of living is significantly less compared with the United States and Canada, making it much more feasible for dentists to own and operate a practice.

8. Do dental services in Mexico come with a guarantee?

Our vetted-approved dentists guarantee their treatment and services for up to four years. If something is not right, you can go back and have it corrected at no additional cost. However, this is not an option at every Mexican dental office, but we put you first, and so this is something we promise you.

9. Should I take cash with me when traveling to Mexico for dental work?

It’s always a good idea to have some cash when you’re traveling. Typically, you pay cash or credit card for services rendered during an appointment, but you’ll still want cash for incidentals throughout your time in Mexico. Most tourist destinations and areas that see many Americans take credit cards and often U.S. dollars as well. We don’t suggest carrying a large sum of cash.

10. Can I get medications in Mexico after my dental work?

Many Americans fill non-narcotic prescriptions in Mexico. And if your dentist prescribes pain medications or other prescriptions, you can visit a Mexican pharmacy and fill your prescription at a reduced rate before you head home. Savings can be substantial.

11. Will my dental insurance cover my treatment in Mexico?

In some cases, yes. Just be sure to check with your insurance provider before you travel and bring copies of any forms they require filled out for you to make a claim. We can advise you on this too. Or your dental insurance company might reimburse you. But, again, call your agent to see if this is an option.

12. Can I get a price estimate before I go to Mexico for dental work?

Dental Design Studio Cancun can help you get a free price quote. Keep in mind that our dentists use various sources of information. They use dental X-rays and 3-D cone beam CT scans, consider the patient’s desired outcome, and most importantly, base their final decision after an in-office examination. This is very important because so much information is collected during a physical examination, including examining each patient’s facial structure. Most price quotes we give our patients are within 10 to 15% accuracy, but the in-person examination will determine the best course of treatment.

13. So, are Americans happy with their dental treatment in Mexico?

According to a report commissioned by Families U.S.A., a Washington advocacy group for health-work issues, “About 90 percent [feel] the dental work they had received in Mexico had been good or excellent.” Our own internal review shows our clients are happy at an even higher rate. This exceeds satisfaction with U.S. dentists.

14. How long does it take to get dental implants in mexico?

Getting Dental Implants in Cancun is a 2 Stage Treatment. On the firts stage we do the Dental Implant Surgery and we need 7 Days. Second Stage is 5-12 days, On your second trip to Cancun, a fixed crown or denture will be attached to your dental implant(s) for a permanent solution.

15. Get Stem Cell therapy for faster recovery

Our Placental Regenerative Stem Cell IV Therapy offers the ability to heal damaged tissue naturally. The tissue regeneration and repair properties of the amniotic cell fluid offer an anti-inflammatory effect that relieves pain and contains natural growth factors that assist in healthy tissue growth.
