I have heard that lots of people go to mexico to get dental work or braces done because it is a lot cheaper? Is that true? How do you go about that? Have any of you done it?

Yes. A lot of people in Arizona go to Mexico to get their dental work done because it is cheaper than even their co-pay in the US. And I've always heard about good results. Never heard anything negative.

Not only you get what you pay for, but you cannot be guaranteed that the conditions will be sanitary, and the proceedure is being done by an actual orthodontist. Looks like flying back and forth to Mexico for the adjustments would get very expensive, since no orthodontist will work on another`s patient when braces are involved.

yup I've done it. And she did a great job on my braces and it wasn't near as expensive as it is here in the states. just go to Mexico and find a dentist. I mean obviously don't go to a place that looks like crap. Anyways as long as you get someone that knows what they're doing you'll be fine my teeth are straight and pretty :D

Hey, you get what you pay for. I went to Mexico and was astounded (AND scared) about how many dentists there are. I would NOT go there for dental work. You get what you pay for. Plus, how do you know they know what they are doing? Maybe they don't even know.

going to dentists here are risky enough. in mexico you are helpless. but you are one of those fearless players who love texas hold'em and big stakes. bet you are always buying lottery tickets, eh? go to mexico and go for it! post it here if you make it back.
