Root Canals Los Algodones

I posted this on Facebook to share with my friends. It will serve well as my review of Fine Quality Dental. I'm currently in Yuma, AZ for the winter. I had a fractured tooth pulled in October by my dentist in Dansville, NY. She told me a three-unit bridge (1 full pontic and 2 anchor crowns) would cost a little over $3000. I declined because I knew I could have it done in Los Algodones, Mexico, a 15-minute drive from Yuma, for much less. Today I had new porcelain fused to a metal permanent bridge installed on my third visit to Fine Quality Dental. The first was an initial consultation/exam and the second was the prep work. My experience with Dr Charles Zuman and his assistants was excellent from beginning to end. I researched his and other clinics in detail prior to selecting him. The bridge and procedure are as good as could be obtained in the US. Its total cost was $750. If Dr Zuman practised in my home area I would switch to him as my dentist even if he charged American prices for regular services. If any of you are facing expensive dental work there are places outside the US where you can get equal quality work for less than a third of the cost.

My daughter and I just got back from staying 10 nights in Los Algodones. We had a lot of work done at Castle Dental, and it all went extremely well! My daughter had all four of her wisdom teeth pulled, some root canals, and cavities filled. I had several root canals, some teeth pulled, bone grafting, a partial made, a bridge, and about 15 crowns! Emmanuel Perez is my favourite and he did an incredible job. He worked so hard on my teeth which was not an easy job! We both are very happy with the results and we will be returning soon for my son to also get some work done. This would have cost us at least 3 times more here in the US. Very thankful!! They keep you informed well with the price for everything before the work is done. Dentists in the US would have forced me to get implants. But Castle Dental agreed a bridge would work just fine, and this enabled me to afford to get all the rest of the work I so badly wanted done. That was huge, good news for me! The receptionist in the clinic was so nice she literally walked us to a grocery store to show us where it was. Thank you, Mariana! This area of the border is legalized and very safe to cross. All of Algodones is very safe. We walked the streets at night with our groceries and I felt safer than I do in our own town. Los Algodones is just right over the border from Arizona and California. We stayed at California Comfort Suites. It's not the best hotel, but it's not bad either, and the price is amazing. Our bill was $900.00 for 10 nights in a 2 bedroom condo with a little kitchen. So can't complain! I highly recommend Castle Dental, I only wish I hadn't put it off for so long. It's cheaper yet higher quality, and they are honest when diagnosing. A nice change from the greedy dentists in the US!

Dr Guillermo Urias "Dr. William" spent several hours working in my mouth with the end result in my being able to laugh and smile for the first in over 40 years. Previously I had to learn to talk, laugh and smile without showing my teeth. In 2 visits Dr. William changed my life and I was able to smile again. He has a good sense of humour and even changed the video music to something more to my liking. Told me how smart I was for bringing a sleep mask to protect my eyes from the harsh work light. I wore a protective mask over my mouth that was a miniature Mexican wrestling mask of a famous luchador named "Blue Demon" He recognised the character immediately and we shared our knowledge about Mexican wrestling. A positive experience for this "Gringo Loco" I highly recommend JP Dental. All stars!!

So glad I did the research before my sister and I came to Algodones. We visited several dentists that was happy to promise everything in a day or two, except one, that being Smile Center, who said we needed to let things heal before proceeding to a final result. They told my sister, she only needed to replace 2 teeth, not 22 as prescribed by the other dentists including 1 in the US. We are so happy with the decision we made and the results we received. We can only thank them for their integrity, vision and skill. Hopefully, you’ll find the same to be true. Special thanks to Johanna and Francisco for managing our stay from our hotel rooms and rides to the hotel and border. Not to be forgotten are the dentists that were patient, kind and so so skilled. This experience has changed our lives. As far as pricing it was fair and considerably lower than US prices and inline with others.
