I figure we saved about $6,000 over what we'd pay for the same 6 crowns, 2 root canals, 3 fillings, 2 composite restoration and 2 core buildups. Total cost for dental was $2,300. Projected US cost was $8,500 for the same work. The dentists were very different from US dentists. That began to show when the dentist called me personally from Mexico. When we went there the dentists (husband and wife) were slow and in no hurry. There were no other office personnel. Wife was worked on mostly by the Detist wife. She was slow and meticulous. The husband, an endodontist, was the same. They took their time and made sure everything was done just right. They explained and asked for input as the treatment progressed. If there were any choices, like whether to do a preventative root canal or forego it, they would explain and we had full participation in the treatment. The consulted among themselves and they brought in a friend to consult at one time regarding a possible bracing issue. The experience with these 2 dentists was very positive.
