The Best Place in Mexico: Molar City

What’s Molar City and why is it called that way? Los Algodones is a small town in Baja California, Mexico, just right next to the Yuma, AZ Border. Thanks to its convenient location it has become very popular among dental tourists.

The name “Molar City” was given to Los Algodones because it has more than 300 dental clinics, and many of them offer the same high-quality treatments as the ones in the United States and Canada, but the prices are way more affordable.

Plus, this small border town not only has reasonable dental care, but also has low-cost shopping places, restaurants, and drug stores where you can get prescription medicines.

The warm weather of the area is one of the main attractions for tourists, especially for those visiting from Canada and the North of the United States, where the temperatures tend to be very low.

History of Molar City

The name Los Algodones is translated as “cotton buds”, and is believed to be derived from the Indian word Halchidomas, which is the name of a tribe of Indians who lived in the Yuma, Arizona territory back in the 17th century.

The similarity in the names was the cause that the town is known as Los Algodones.

This town has its first growth boom during the U.S. prohibition era, tourists used to cross the border to play and drink. But nowadays, the town has established a good reputation among dental tourists as a safe and entertaining destination to save money on medical and healthcare needs.

At the end of the XIX century, the canalization works of the Colorado River promoted by Mr. Charles Rockwood to water the Mexicali and Imperial Valleys initiated in Los Algodones.

Months after this began, wild plants of the region grew on the sides of the Colorado River reaching heights of 5 ft., and they formed a flower that gave as fruit the cotton plant.
