Dentures Mexico

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.

Very happy with all the staff and the work that was done. Had a cleaning and exam to discuss what I wanted/ needed done. I had a post and crown on my front tooth which had been missing a crown for a couple years. Also had a crown put on for a missing one for an old bridge that had fallen out in the spring. I think their x-ray technique was better than I've had in U.S. I felt confident and was well informed on everything every step of the way. They wanted to be sure I was happy with the final result and I was more than pleased. I never felt pressured to have more work done but I will definitely come back in the fall for crowns and implants. I told a gentleman hawking another dental office that cheaper doesn't mean better and I research before I make a decision. I think I did well to choose this office!

The office is modern, clean, and spotless. The doctor gave me a tour and I saw several examination rooms and an on-site lab for making crowns. I saw lots of gleaming equipment and half a dozen staff in the office. It’s much larger than your typical dentist office in the US. Dr Munoz gave me a really good price for root canals, crowns and an implant. It’s probably 1/3 of what it costs in the US. You could probably save more if you went to a dentist on some side street in a dusty border town. But I felt this was a first-class operation and I trusted the doctor's judgement. I can’t say the root canals were painless. They weren’t. But the pain was less than expected. Furthermore, I wasn’t even aware that he had started and almost finished placing the implant. The whole thing was over in a couple of hours. One thing I really like about the implant is that there is no waiting six months to attach the abutment and crown. He uses a more modern system where this can be done a few days after receiving the implant
