Are the Dentists in Tijuana Reliable?
Yes, as long as you book through a trusted resource like Dental Departures that only lists ones that we, ourselves, would be happy to visit.
Dental tourism in Mexico, particularly Tijuana, has been popular with Americans and Canadians for years, and you will find an array of high-quality clinics in the city that have been established for decades, as well as newer facilities opening in response to the growing amount of international patients. From a patient’s point-of-view, this is good news because it shows there is demand and demonstrates the quality must be reliable, otherwise dental tourism would not be popular. There is also a wide choice of facilities, as this promotes healthy competition, which in turn keeps prices low and standards high.
As far as the expertise of the dentists is concerned, there is little to worry about as long as you have chosen a trustworthy provider. A large portion of dental clinics along the border caters to American and Canadian patients. Thus, they tend to have staff that speaks English and dentists who have completed at least part of their training in the US, which gives them American Dental Association membership, and, therefore, are subject to the same standards as dentists in the US.
Clinics are also contemporary and many are equipped with the latest in diagnostic and therapeutic technologies, including 3D CT scanning and CAD/CAM Cerec, which provides for same-day prosthodontics – another plus point for time-deprived international patients.
