You do not need to "declare" your car. The major benefit of parking and walking is that you avoid the inconvenience of waiting in a line of cars that can literally stretch for a mile to get back into the U.S.

How much to get your teeth extracted each?
Guys this video is AWESOME! (so it part 2) Well done! So happy the tips in our blog post were helpful and it was really fun seeing you walk through Los Algodones and show the place and your experience. We also had a very positive experience with Dr Rubio's office, so are glad your implant worked out so well - AND that you saved so much money. Again, great job on the videos!
awww thanks guys. That is so nice to hear, especially coming from the pros!! - Yes we are super happy with the experience and the new tooth is perfect and going strong! Thanks so much for the feedback! Talk to you guys soon! - E&K
:) you rocked it! Super helpful for people.
@@LivinliteNet1 did you fly from Connecticut to Arizona and then rent a car to drive down there daily while you stayed on the US side? I have to get a lot of work done and live in Florida so I can’t exactly walk across the border. I think going through El Paso into Juarez would be the closest. But I’m nervous to travel to Juarez by myself.
@@HH-gv8mx we parked our rv at the Q and then drove our car to the boarder and walked over. I’m not sure with the cost of hotels and flights it would save money but it’s certainly possible depending on what you have done and how long it takes. Best of luck getting the work sorted.
@@LivinliteNet1 thanks. I’ve never heard good things about Juarez, but I think flying into El Paso is The closest border city to Florida. I need a root canal a couple crowns and some fillings to charge me over $10,000. It’s worth looking into atleast bc I need the work done but cannot afford it here!
A very informative video about dental work there. I've considered for a while and glad I found yall and this video about it. Thank y'all.

Loved it. We had older friends who went there a lot. We said we wanted to go with them some time, put it off, and now they have passed away. We live in Kingman, Az not that far away.
so sorry about your friends :( - We had a really great experience and will likely go back next year for checkups and 30 dollar cleanings. Let us know if you have any questions, here to help!

Thank you for this! I just got an estimate for $11k in the US. This has been in the back of my mind for years!

You will generally find Mexican dental prices to be 1/3 the cost of similar U.S. work. Just got an all on 6 set of implants, so I know.
@ 11
That exactly what I want, all on 6 😉
How much did you pay and where did you get it done???
Thanks
Is that possible on US side 1) rent a RV 2) park in a kind of camping park that provides shower to be closer to the border? Is that possible?
This seems like a good idea for some without dental insurance. I’m in need of an implant also because of a broken crown with a previous root canal. Dental estimate is $4k and insurance covers 50% - so less than they spent. I would also have two airfares and motel stays.
I just had three root canals done with the crowns it cost me $9000 in the United States. I already had two root canals on the bottom teeth and they failed or broke or something happened did not last long so that was $6000 down the drain. You must work for a company that has great dental insurance. Here in Florida, there aren’t even any dental plans that you can buy as an individual plan that any dentists will accept. 😔
@@HH-gv8mx My insurance is through a company that accepts vets as a group. Nothing special in benefits, my crown I'm getting soon will be $450, so it's cheaper than even the travel costs to Mexico. However, if I needed that much work done it would be better to travel as insurance limits are 3k per year. I looked into dental travel to India before Covid, and that was a seriously good deal. Their equipment and education are state of the art and prices way below the US or Mexico.
Thanks guys!
Pulling a tooth alone
i just paid $620, insurance didnt pay much either
( tooth 31 )
(tooth 2)
Here in Mexico would cost aprox 50 extraction + 350 Bone grafting to leave your bone ready for an implant
@@rick03168 yup. Actually the county will for $5.
Hello can you please provide any updates? I know its has been a while since your placement. I am wondering about long term issues.
I am in a similar situation. Mine is on the lower. Is there a reason you did not just pull it and save the money. It was not noticable. Just curious. Just trying to make my decision. Thanks!
Hey Aaron, its definitely a personal choice. Being in my 30s I wasnt ready to go without a tooth and since it was right on the boarder of being noticable (right behind the k9 tooth) and on the upper we made the choice to do it. That said, things might have been different if it was a lower which I think would have been much less noticeable. Best of luck on your decision!
Very very useful! Thank you guys!!
I am assuming you paid in US funds, or was it Pesos, I am from Canada, either way ,,thanks for the informative video, This is something that actually a lot of people I know from here have done, as we pay thru the nose for dental down here, even a exam is over $200.00 depending on where you go, thanks again,,,
Yea USD $$ is all they accept in most places down there from our experience.

My local dentist tells me I need several crowns replaced because there is decay under them. Please let me know if you know if Dr Rubio and his group do that sort of work. Thank you very much for your informative video.

There are literally hundreds of dentists in Los Algondones, and from what I could see from the signs outside their offices, the majority do it all.
How long was the procedure for placing implant , hard to imagine pulling tooth & placing implant the same day ( ? Just curious )
Jennifer p When you have a tooth pulled, you need to wait 4 to 6 months for it to heal, but they only put a part so to speak of the implant into your jaw bone.
It's called immediate implant. Extract tooth place implant and do bone graft. It's actually less invasive. $700 per Implant with us & life time warranty

I got implant nov 2020
Dr. Said he will place tooth early march so I guess now
Other implant when I can afford 3-5000 again
Thank you for replies its all good
Im working on it ... Expensive tho
Did they also do a bone graft? I am going through this process in the US, and they did a bone graft followed by 2 months of healing before checking if the jaw is ready for the implant. After 2 months the dentist says she wants to wait another 2 months to see if the bone graft will harden more before inserting a post. Did you have any discussion about the readiness of your jaw in that area?
When they did the extraction they did a minimal bone graft in combination with the placement of the implant. I did not have the crown installed during this visit, just a healing abutment that kept pressure off the new implant and allowed the gums to also heal around the abutment which has the same size (around the gum line) as the final crown. Then when i returned in 3 months (next video) they did another set of xrays to check bone health and then installed the final crown. Thanks for the question, good one!
Surprisingly I thought the area would be much different and scary but it didn't look bad! Were you guys scared? And is there a reason you guys didn't stay in the hotel in Mexico?
I guess because it is a long process, I should wait several weeks before the final result.
I just spent $9,000 on 3 root canals and a crown. One of the root canals was done a year ago and I can already see that it does not meet the gumline and it looks like a lot of bacteria is growing in there. I already wasted $6000 onto root canals on the bottom that failed. And the Dennis did an extraction and accidentally took out two teeth instead of one. Now my dentist is telling me that I need $10,100 worth of work. I don’t have that kind of money I’m trying to figure out which would be the best way to get from Florida to Mexico and get some dental work done by a reputable dentist. I’m sick of being taken advantage of here in the United States.
That's messed up on the dentist's part. I heard Tijuana is the best spot for implants
I'll be going in a couple months to have work done.
Go to Turkey, state of the art. Less than half the Mexico cost. I live in Mexico and I go to Turkey for major dental. Included in the cost is staying in a first class hotel on the beach including breakfast. You need to do more research unless you want to spend more money for lower quality. I speak from experience not just what I read and hear.
CT SCAN just added to your extraction cost. Normally not needed for an extraction.
not needed for extraction, was needed for the implant to more clearly understand bone density and how deep they would drill for the implant.
@@LivinliteNet1 Ohhhh OK - - That's different. Yes it's needed for bone density implant. Thanks for clarification.
What was the pain killer they prescribe that is allowed back across?
Mhmm, my tooth surgery got worse there. Had to go to 5 dentists in Mexico. In India I got it fixed.
Cool video...
thanks for info
Thank you so much for making this video! I greatly appreciated it! Good job! So how long ago did you have the final crown put in? How's your mouth feeling, everything ok?
It took 3 months from the initial consult shown in this video until we went back for the final crown which was also two visits. We needed to go back first to get impressions and then go back a week later for the final crown. If you hop over to our article at livinlite.net/mexico-dental and go down into the FAQ at the bottom look for #11 which outlines the exact timing and number of visits from start to finish. Thanks for checking in and let us know if you have any other questions.
Today is 8/4/2019. How is the implant now? Thanks and would you recomend Rubio Dentistry?

What was the total estimate for the implant?
The total cost for everything was 2200 for us. This included the initial consultation, Straumann dental implant, crown, minimal bone grapt, and XRays. We had to pay 150 out of pocket cash for the CT Scan which was charged by another office. CT scans are very important when getting upper implants to ensure you do not allow the implant to enter the sinus cavity which can be a real nightmare..
What camera are you useing ..lol
Very informative video. I'm in Palm Springs, only about a 2 hour drive. I need a new crown and post and have been quoted $1,800. I understand that in Mexico it would be about $400. BTW, where was your dentist in CT? (I grew up in Newington).
thanks David, our first Dentist (the one we had the trouble with) was in Stamford, CT, the second which is a great dentist but expensive is in Darien, CT. Best of luck, we had a great experience and recommend Rubio but there are plenty of good dentist down there. Make sure to checkout the full article at livinlite.net/mexico-dental/ as we have much more information there. thanks!
..I just came from Algodones...crowns are $800 minimum...
The cost of crowns vary based on material. Generally $200-$500. $800 would have to include additional work.

Did u get just one implant?
yes only one. However Erik's father is going down in a few months to get implant secured removable dentures so that will be a big process that we will update folks on.
Why wouldn't I just drive into Mexico?
Driving into Mexico is a great option if you are going further than Los Algodones which is right over the boarder. If you are going in just for Dental/Optical, a car will make the trip take much longer. The line to enter back into the US is typically more than a mile long stretching around the city resulting in 2 hour+ waits to leave. Additionally your US based insurance is not valid in Mexico so you'll need to get separate insurance. For us, we also didn't like the idea of trying to find parking for such a short trip. That said, we are planning a trip to Rocky Point, which is a beach front Mexico destination for RV'ers. During that trip we will bring our car and RV. Its all depending on where you are going we think. Thanks for checking in and for the comments. Good question!
So good to know thank you. Love your videos
Hi and thank you so much for posting this video. I have to get dental work done and your video with your experience and showing how clean the facility is helped make my final decision. I may have to go it alone and kinda nervous walking into Mexico by myself. Do you think its an issue? How far was the office from the border? I will be flying into AZ then driving to the border. Do you have any idea what airport to fly into and how long that would take? Just curious and any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Suzan, don't be nervous. There have been quite a few that go over by themselves. If you fly into Phoenix, AZ, it's like 3 hours away. Fly into Yuma, AZ... You can search around TH-cam for others who have gone here and find all the information you need. If you find a place that you want to get your dental work done, you can go through dental departures website and make the arrangements and can even get picked up from the airport. We went to another place down there based on an RV'er that I watch. Loved it, going back in another week. Oh and all the places are within blocks of the border,
Hi Suzan, make sure you checkout the article here at livinlite.net/mexico-dental. Answers to all of your questions are there. Its perfectly safe however we recommend not staying past dark as a precaution as the boarder does close. Our article has all the details at the bottom. Best of luck and feel free to ask us any additional questions you have!!
how many teeth
Erik had just one tooth an implant however his father is getting a much more extensive procedure with over 10 extractions. complete details are available in our article here: livinlite.net/mexico-dental
Wow I need two done so that's about 4 k total. Still cheaper than 7k I got quoted.
I already had the CT done and mine are in the front.
you can definitely get a package deal price. Be prepared to pay when you haggle and you'll be surprised how much cheaper you can get a package but you have to be willing to shop/walk away and verify they are not simply replacing the work with cheaper materials. Good luck!
ty ha e to get my a1c down. Target then taking this trip to Mexico
i HOPE YOU HAVE BETTER LUCK THAN i DID. i SPENT $8,000 IN LOS aLGADONES AND WITHIN 2 YEARS ALL 24 CROWNS i HAD DONE ENDED UP ROTTING IN 2 YEARS .NOW I HAVE SPENT $14,500 GETTING MY UPPERS ALL PULLED AND HAD TO GET 4 IMPLANTS PLUS DENTURES. I ONLY HAVE 7 OF MY BOTTOM TEETH AS THE OTHER 5 HAVE BROKE OFF FROM ROT. YOU HAVE NO RECOURSE WITH DENTISTS DOWN THERE. MY DENTIST WAS SONIA EDEZA!
Why have you not left bad reviews on her anywhere? I've seen places where bad reviews are accepted, yet she had none.
Yelp is a great place to find honest reviews. Bad reviews get posted there, not just the good ones. She's not on there yet. You can add her and then write your review.
YOU CAN BUY THE DRINKS, BUT NOT DRINK IN PUBLIC PLACES, IT IS THE LAW!
Bro, lose some weight. Feel sorry for your lady.
A-hole. You should buy yourself a mirror before you talk about others.
@@mishonkid LOLOL
The best dentist down there is Crentist, you can look him up
