A Tale About Choosing A Mexican Dentist
Share us with friends

Sure, you can pick a Mexican dentist by who has the flashiest web site, but wouldn't you really rather have the security of a personal recommendation?

Generally, dental care is excellent in Mexico. But not all dentists were created equal, in Mexico or in the United States. "Mexico" Mike said this about his own personal experience and why he now recommends only one dentist.
I'd just picked a dentist in Progreso by the how fancy her web site was and she told me I needed 3 root canals. This could have been true, but at $400 a tooth, was a little leery of investing the Nelson family fortune. Through friends, I got a referral to another dentist who said I didn't need a root canal but needed a lot of other work. I guess I had rich friends.
The moral here is that your friends may know a dentist but they may not have the knowledge to know if he / she is really good.
By instinct I choose a 3rd dentist who had a plain, but sparkling clean office. He looked at me carefully and suggested we wait and see. He thought the problem could have been gingivitis and recommended some medicine. Five years later, I still don't need those root canals
