Dental Mayora

The idea of dental tourism is one that has spanned several decades. From an account of a doctor who settled in Los Algodones in the late 1960’s, one can get a clear demographic of how the dusty border town’s primary business transition from serving bitter cervezas to treating cavities. According to his story, Los Algodones did not look to promising for a dentist looking to put up shop at that time. Nevertheless, he pushed through, because he knew he was one of two dentists within a few hundred square kilometers.

Fortunately, the Mayor of Los Algodones in the mid 1970’s had a vision to transform the town in to a dental service hub. Resources were invested in tapping the American market through advertising high quality dental treatment in Mexico. Soon enough, the affordability of dental tourism in Mexico tickled the curiosity of Americans. Dentists saw the opportunity to establish their practice for decades to come and thus began moving into Los Algodones. Space became a scarce commodity and the mayor eventually had to shut down the cantinas and brothels in favor of commercial spaces for the establishment of dental clinics.

The multitude of facilities and world class standard of customer care from dental clinics that are so eager to serve were too good to resist as far as American clients were concerned. The industry of dental tourism in Mexico began by catering to American senior citizens who no longer had a steady source of income to pay for expensive services. Next came the residents of American border towns who became aware of the stark difference in the cost of a Mexican dentist. In the end, just about every penny pinching individual is choosing Mexican dental services.

At present, people from all walks of life are contributing to the hyper active dental tourist landscape in Mexico. Everyone seems to want to become a part of such a viable profit sectors. Businessmen in border towns have ventured into the construction of multi-level parking lots for American travelers who simply want to park their car and walk across the border. At the center of it all are the dentists, offering the most competitive prices and their corresponding clients seeking the best deals for dental services. All of these phenomena contribute to the upkeep of the most stable dental tourist environment in the Americas.

Perhaps the biggest cause for concern as far as potential dental tourists are concerned is the glaring disparity in cost of dental services in the United States and Mexico. The difference is so glaring that it may seem surreal for the overly cautious. In truth, the low cost of services can be attributed to two reasons: a low overhead cost and a competitive environment.

The practice of dentistry is not as stringently regulated in Mexico compared to the United States. In the US, dentists have to spend hundreds of dollars in licensure fees. This is coupled with exorbitant rental fees for commercial spaces to set up clinics which go as high as thousands of dollars each year. This redounds to American dentists jacking up the price of their services in order to offset the high operating cost. The same cannot be said for Mexican dentists who practice in an area where space is a commodity.

A competitive environment is arguably the main reason why the cost of dental services in Mexico is kept to a bare minimum. So many dentists abound offering the same list of services to potential clients. The only way to get an edge in the competition and build a roster of loyal clientele is by reducing the price. In the town of Los Algodones, it is a common experience to have another dental clinic offer you the same procedure for around ten dollars less just as you have come to a deal with a competing clinic. Because of the nature of dental services wherein much of what you pay for comes in the form of labor, dentists in Mexico are willing to offer one discount after another just to keep a client coming back.

Another possible concern for the typical dental tourist is the cost and convenience of traveling to Mexico. Many are convinced that it is quite possible that the cost of transportation and accommodations far offset the discounts offered by Mexican dental clinics. This is hardly the case. Due to discounts in services going as high as 60 to 70 percent, those who choose to try out dental tourism in Mexico still manage several hundred dollars in savings despite having to pay for airfare and accommodations.

Land transportation is not a problem either with the Greyhound bus company offering their Americanos service in many states. This is a popular and affordable way of securing a direct trip to Mexico. For those choosing to drive their own cars, the government of Mexico is presently eager to facilitate the success of the booming medical industry. Speed lanes have been created at the border crossings near popular dental tourism destinations such as the town of Mexicali. Instead of taking a couple of hours in the heat of the sun waiting for a chance to cross the border, dental tourists now have access to the special dental tourism lanes. This allows dental tourists to seek treatment in Mexico after spending a mere 20 minutes to cross the border. The ease of access has been made possible through the promulgation of a uniform pass which the tourist will secure from his dentist to avoid any possible delays.

Dental insurance policies will not be compromised should a patient seek treatment in Mexico. Many large scale insurance companies in the United States are collaborating with established dental practitioners in Mexico in order to be able to offer their clients the best rates possible and reduce the cost of their coverage. Insurance companies want to be able to maximize their profits by minimizing on claim payouts, reducing overhead costs and keeping their revolving fund invested in high earning securities. In order to achieve this, many insurance companies are siphoning their policy holders to partner Mexican clinics. For the policy holder, this creates a potential vacation for some rest and relaxation while paying a lower participation fee.

Through dental tourism in Mexico, it is quite possible to establish a lifetime relationship with a dentist who has stellar command of the English Language to understand your needs. They posses not only procedural and medical knowledge but excellent communication skills as well. At the heart of the dental tourism industry is the practitioner penchant for continuing care and first class service. Contact information regarding the clinic as well as the personal cell phone numbers of the doctor are readily available. In the unlikely event that a patient experiences some discomfort after a procedure, the doctor will promptly reply and address any concern.

One distinct facet of the concept of continuing and accessible care in the Mexican dental industry is that of warranties. Dental service providers place great premium on their reputations. None of them wish to become fly by night companies with tainted reputations. To boost their credibility even further, such dental service providers offer almost all of their services under warranty. To cite a few examples, the installation of braces and root filling treatment typically come with two year warranties. On the other hand, typically fragile treatments such as bone graft medication, gum surgery and tooth inlay still come with a one year warranty. Cosmetic treatments such as teeth whitening or the casting of dentures have extended warranties going as long as three and five years respectively.

In choosing your dentist, meticulously compare the length of the warranties that his clinic has to offer with the prevalent standard. This will allow you to gauge the clinic’s reliability. For a list of usual lenght of warranties take a look at here.

As with any delicate service, customers tend to gravitate towards providers which have been tried and tested. In canvassing your dental clinic of choice in Mexico, make sure to seek out clinics which have been accredited by the Asociacion Dental Mexicana (ADM) or the American Dental Association (ADA). These clinics offer the highest standards of care and carry minimal risk of folding. While these clinics may cost slightly more, than upstart clinics making hard sales pitches, spending a few dollars in exchange for dependability is a good investment.

Dental service hawkers are now a common sight near the border. These are usually agents hired by unestablished dental clinics seeking to build a roster of loyal clientele by making a hard sell to cash strapped customers. “Barkers”, as they are commonly referred to, often attempt to outdo one another by offering one sweet deal after another. For a typical person who is not privy to the dental tourism industry, the lowest price might make the most sense. As a general rule however, nothing compares to conducting personal research and seeking out the dental clinic that is the best fit for your budget and security needs.

Perhaps the most prominent factor which draws customers to subscribe to dental tourism is the potential for a vacation. For an individual seeking treatment in Mexico, the decision as to whether or not vacation time will be pursued arises. Typically, those seeking more comprehensive treatment simultaneously take intended vacations in Mexico. This can be done at the various dental resorts which offer top tier accommodations and recreational facilities which rival expensive five star hotels. These resorts are conveniently the location of several dental clinics. Patrons are afforded the chance to sit back and relax while waiting for their turn at the dentist’s chair.

Enjoying the sights and attractions of Mexico necessitate a convenient means of getting around. For those intending to bring a car, it is important to note that American car insurance is not valid in Mexico. This has to be arranged over the internet with your insurance company for an affordable premium of around $10 per day. Alternatively, those who wish to save on gasoline and insurance companies can park on the US side and take Mexico’s reliable bus system.

The government of Mexico has recently directed their efforts into creating a pollution free environment that is conducive for the gallivanting of dental tourists. A new eco bike system has been instituted as of early 2012 which will significantly reduce traffic congestion and facilitate the efficiency of the bus system. The ultimate goal is to turn Mexico into an oasis for dental care seekers and offer a warm respite to draw vacationers away from the hustle and bustle of urban life.

In sum, the continued development of the dental tourism industry in Mexico has continued to expand its horizons to an unprecedented extent. Dental services are quick to rival those provided by the most expensive hospitals in the United States due to the dynamic nature of the industry. Establish a relationship with a dentist in Mexico today and set yourself up for a lifetime of quality dental care and hundreds of dollars in savings.
