Tijuana Cosmetic Dentistry:
Extreme Dental Makeovers
About Mexico Dental Implants
Let me explain a little bit about the procedure of this dental work. Implants are more than cosmetic dentistry, this is restoring your mouth. It is not something that can de done in a day, because it takes months for the implant to heal and for the surrounding bone to grow and attach itself.
1. Dental implants Mexico: The Mexican dentist, has to do an oral examination, complete with ex-rays to make sure you are a good candidate. You have to have good bone density and the jaw bone has to be in good shape. Some people will have to start with a bone graft in order to build up the surrounding bone. If you are needing to first have an extraction, especially if it is a molar tooth, you will probably have to have a bone graft, in which they surgecly implant an artificial calcium material that the bone adheres to and grows around. The procedure takes about 1 hours per tooth, and will take about 45 days for the healing process to be done, and to be ready for an implant. If you have lost the tooth a long time ago, and the jaw bone is in good shape, you won’t need to have this step done. Our Tijuana dental clinic charges $350 for a bone graft, still much less than the $1200 it costs in San Diego.
2. After pre-drilling a hole into the jawbone, the dental implant, made of titanium, is screwed in. It is coated with hydroxylapatite, which is the main mineral of which dental enamel is comprised. This helps the bone to grow around and bond to the dental implant more thoroughly. The Tijuana dentists opens up the gum, and using a special machine, he removes the bone in the jaw to prepare it to receive the implant. After insertion of the implant, the gum is sutured closed with dissoluble sutures. The procedure only takes about 1 hour, but you will then have wait for 3 to 4 months for the bone to heal and grow to the implant. Mini implants do not have a very long life expectancy, and may need to be replaced in a couple of years. It is best to do the slower procedure, and have an implant that will last for the rest of your life.
3&4. When you come in to attach the abutment and crown, it will take 2 visits to the clinic, but they can be back to back. First, the dentist will drill into the titanium implant to attach the abutment. The Mexican dentist in Tijuana will then make an impression of this post and the surrounding teeth, and send the impressions out to the lab. Your Tijuana dentist normally takes a couple of days for the finished crown to be ready, but if arrangements are made with the lab, the crown can be ready to put on the very next day, and in some cases the same day.
Mexican dental work and in general, dentistry in Tijuana is inexpensive, and the cost of dental implants Mexico, with the abutment and crown, only runs around $1500. The same thing in San Diego or Los Angeles runs from $4,000 to $4,800. As you can see, the savings is significant, and it is worth getting cosmetic dentistry, or any dental work. So come on down to visit us at Sam Dental.

Dale before & After Mexico dental;
Many people are looking to dental tourism in Mexico as the cost effective solution to their dental needs. Many time, folks have neglected their teeth for years simply because they couldn't afford the expense. The problem is, your dental health can deteriorate exponentially. One tooth problem can have a domino effect on the others, untill you have a whole mouth full of problems. If everyone could at least come to Sam Dental Tijuana to get everything fixed at one time, then maybe they could afford to do maintenace dentistry with their local dentist. But even with the problems of one tooth, like a root canal and crown, in the US could cost you upwards of $2,000, and in Tijuana the price of the same procedures would be just a little over $500. So to save $1500 on one tooth, it is still well worth the trip to your dentist in Tijuana.
