Going to the Dentist in Mexico - What You Need to Know

While Dental Tourism has become a very popular practice around the world, there are certain concerns from people considering to travel. One of the most recurring doubts is how it will be to visit another country just for the purpose of getting dental work. This concern increases when people haven't ever got out from their origin country. We understand those doubts and concerns and that's why here we share with you everything you need to know about coming to the dentist in Mexico.

The Arrival

First of all, let's make clear that we will focus on Los Algodones. While there are many cities and towns that offer dental tourism services, Los Algodones is the place we best know so we'll use it as an example. Contrary to what many people think, crossing the Mexico-USA border is really simple for someone coming from the US. In the case of Los Algodones, because it's a small town, there is almost no line to get in the country. Unlike other borderline towns, when you enter to Los Algodones you can find everything from the first street. Dental clinics, opticals, and stores are just a few feets from the border, so you shouldn't worry about getting lost.

Once You're in Town

As we just mentioned, in Los Algodones you can find everything at a walking distance from the borderline. We recommend to everyone to have a scheduled appointment before traveling for dental tourism. That way you assure that you'll get treated and you'll save a lot of time. While there are many dental clinics in Los Algodones, by making an appointment before traveling you can also research, read reviews, and decide which dental clinic you'll visit. 

We at Sani Dental Group offer additional services to make your experience the easiest possible. We provide a shuttle service from the borderline and Yuma Airport to our patients. Also, we have a deal with Hacienda Los Algodones, the largest hotel in town. Our mission is to give you everything to make your experience peaceful and pleasant. So once you're in town, be sure of taking advantage of everything at your disposal.

Getting Your Dental Work 

That's the part that rises more myths. A few weeks ago we published a post about the myths and facts of getting dental work in Mexico. One of the main concerns of people visiting Mexico for dental work is the experience of the dentists. Well, the best dental clinics in town will always have experienced dentists, that's why it's so important to do your research before choosing a dental clinic. The quality of dental work in Mexico is as good as in the US, and in many cases even better. We invite you to visit our reviews page so you can read about the experience our patients have had by getting dental work in Mexico.

There are dental clinics certified by the American Dental Association, which means that those dental clinics meet the highest quality and safety standards. So if you're worried about the results of your dental work, there's no reason to worry. Sani Dental Group even offers a warranty up to five years, so you can know that if something is wrong with the results, the work will be repaired.
