66 Years in Need of Restoration

WORTH IT$11,264
It's been a month and half since the dental work. I have been to my stateside dentist for the bi-annual cleaning, he took new x-rays of my teeth and implants. he had only positive comments on Melisa's work and a few suggestions for when I go back in January.

Thank you for the photos! What a big difference. Your smile looks youthful now. Once the implants are done…wow!!!

Went to my local dentist today and everyone was appreciative of the great work Melisa had done. My dentist says the color Melisa talked me into was perfect and that the restoration of my jaw closure and exposing my teeth when I talk was noticeable ie I look younger. I'm going in to get my teeth cleaned and to get a new set of x-rays to see how the implants are coming along in about a month,
stand by.

How much was that price??

The dentistry will come in at $12,500.00 USD when the implants are finished in January. A bargain even if you add in the two trips and 18 days vacationing for two in PV, an additional $6,000, it doesn't come to half of what it would have cost stateside. I could have saved more on the accommodations and airfare but treated my wife to 1st class flights and a 4 star hotel.

Thanks I am going down to Juarze on Monday and looks like I need about the same amount of work that u got. After reading your comments I really wanted to go with your dentist. I emailed them and got no response but decided to go with Dr Moran at Nucleo Dental in Juarze I'm hoping I get just as good service as u did. Were u in any pain when they filed your teeth down. Three hours doesn't sound very long. Thanks for your help. Norm

It is not surprising that you could not contact my dentist in PV. She just had a baby and is probably off for the next three months. I had to move up my appointment to accommodate the pending event. Melisa was very good a giving the shots and when she ran across a live nerve she would stop and ask if I wanted any additional Novocaine. the three hours also included the implants preparation and installation of the base screws.

thank you so much for your review! I have been researching -- just started -- dentists who do more affordable and good work in mexico. I don't need nearly as much work as you do (I hope not at least!) but when or if I do, I hope to be so lucky as to have the same dentist. By the way, while it might seem scary to go to another faraway place for dental work to some, trust me, there are bad dentists here in America all over the place. As long as one researches as much as possible (if you don't know someone personally that is) the dentist, no reason to not do a "dental vacation." Plus I haven't been on a real vacation in forever, been saving up for dental work darnit!
