Dental work while in MX



Recommended Posts

Hey guys... Heading to Mexico March 22 to be sleeved with Garcia and understand there is a dentist... Anyone used these services and if so, is it a good/clean place to go, is the work good, is it that much less expensive and what type of things did you have done?!

Thanks

I would really not recommend getting dental work in Mexico. I am a dentist and I may be partial but I have seen really poor work from Mexico. Good luck with your surgery!!!

I've gone to Dental Bernal in Los Algodones four times, beginning in 2006. Among the extractions, crowns, root canal, sinus boost, I also have six implants.

No problems with any of the work.

The only people I've ever heard say anything negative about dental work in Mexico are Americans who've never gone or American dentists (except for MY American dentist).

The trick is to get references.

I wrote a journal (30 pages) during my first trip. If you want a copy, PM me or send an email to my yahoo address.

Best wishes,

SuzanneFromSeattle

I've been to Mexico many times for dental work. Depending on what you are having done you can save between 50-75% compared to American dentists. Do your research, and check their reviews. Chances are since you are having it arranged by a coordinator, you'll be paying more than locals will, but you will still save a lot.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
