BriteSmile™ Teeth Whitening Playa Del Carmen

My 14-year-old daughter had all 4 wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Juan and he did an amazing job. She was put solely on local anesthesia during the surgical procedure but Dr. Juan worked fast yet gentle enough for a young person to tolerate the procedure without sedation. He and Dr. Karen as well as their staff are very nice and friendly. Dr Karen also kept in touch via WhatsApp to monitor how my daughter was recovering. When we had some doubts, Dr. Juan did not hesitate to send a 2-minute voice recording on WhatsApp for very clear instructions. Their clinic provides a positive, welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable dental service provider.

Wonderful service. Better than in HealthPartners in Minneapolis, for sure. Efficient quick work and the dentists are skilled and caring. The price is very affordable. I got a tooth implant and veneer on three incisors that were discoloured with age and the surface was crumbling. We had several appointments. The first one was just to examine the work needed and decide on a plan. They have a specialist for each type of treatment. I returned to do the veneer next and after that had the implant. The implant was quick and efficient, taking less than 40 minutes and with admirable skill. It takes about 6 months for the implant to totally heal and then I went back to have the crown put on. I was very pleased with the service and the quality of the work. My whole family goes to this clinic and has for years. They even noticed an area of tooth decay that my US dentist missed when I went for regular cleaning and check-up at home.

Needed a cleaning (stain removal). They were prompt, courteous, and very professional. Everything they did was explained to me before they did it. They did an excellent clean and polish after a quick check. It was a very good value. The clinic is perfectly located in Playa. There was no issue with my limited Spanish. My appointment time was met in a timely matter. I will return.

This review only applies to Drs. Jorge Armenta and Paulina Contreras. Approximately 70% of all dental work is correcting old, failed dental work. Mine last week was 100%: 3 failed molar composite fillings and two 40 year old incisor root canal crowns. I brought in a dental CAT scan obtained the day before at SA Dentis Digital Dental Imaging. The doctors' recommendations were rational and reasonable - there was no pressure or upselling. Upon Dr. Armenta's recommendation, Dr. Paulina prepped and installed 2 molar crowns without root canals, also a very large molar composite filling. On my insistence, she worked without anaesthetic. Her work was exacting, unrushed, gentle, and thorough. I also brought in my self-care materials. I consulted with the doctors about methods, recorded progress, and prognosis. Dr. Armenta was genially supportive of my efforts. Dr. Paulina, which whom I scheduled extra time particularly for consultation regarding self-care, very capable and willingly offered advice and demonstration regarding flossing, brushing, self-irrigation of gum pockets, etc. These two doctors are fluent in English, thoughtful, careful, courteous, and highly skilled. The advice and treatment I received there was the best I have experienced in any dental office, including the US, Canada, and Europe. The cost savings paid for my 1-week vacation in Playa del Carmen. I hesitated to write this review because I want to return to this office in future - but finally felt that my desire for their continued success has to overcome my own selfish interest. I am a 68 year old chiropractor and have spent considerable time/effort/money over the past few years in researching and practising dental self-care, resolving periodontitis, remineralizing my own teeth, regenerating my gum pockets and recission with considerable success with Orawellness information and products. I try to be very courteous, but most dental offices find my desires for self reliance more or less offensive, or just silly. In contrast, while Drs. Armenta and Contreras do not promote these efforts, they were supportive and encouraging. Dr. Paulina is cognizant and approving of advances in dental remineralization and enamel permeability that others downplay. The office staff are courteous and service-oriented, although almost entirely lacking in English language skills.
