What is the cost of dentures in Ajijic compared to the US and Canada?

A complete set of acrylic dentures in Ajijic costs less than $200 whereas in the United States they average around $1,800.

How long do dentures take in Ajijic?

If you are simply replacing your old dentures you will visit your dentist in Ajijic, who will take impressions of your teeth and send them to the lab to make the new dentures. Once they are ready you will return to your dentist to have them fitted. The whole procedure involves a trip to your dentist on the first and last day, and the lab work will take place in between. It may take around 10 days altogether.

If you are having extractions you will need to wait for the gums and surrounding tissue to heal before a permanent denture can be fitted. Your dentist will provide you with a temporary ‘healing denture’ in the meantime, and it will usually be 3 months before you can be fitted for a permanent denture. There is no reason why you cannot have extractions and a healing denture at home and then travel to Ajijic to get your permanent dentures.

What materials are used for dentures?

Your dentist will discuss the options with you as there are advantages and disadvantages attached to each material, as well as a difference in price. Acrylic dentures are the cheapest, and are light, but they do not look as good as, say, porcelain dentures. Porcelain looks very natural, but they are heavy and may be uncomfortable for some people. Zirconia is one of the newer materials used. They mimic the translucency of natural teeth and are extremely hard-wearing, but they are also the most expensive.
