I feel the same way when I cross back and forth to Mexico. I also get so frustrated when such a relatively poor country can have health care for all, and we can’t.
Hi Russ. Thanks for the ride down to Algodones. Thanks to you and Caravan Carolyn we have a really good sense of what this little town is all about. Both of you have shown us a couple of excellent and trustworthy dentists down there. I certainly would consider it when my snags need serious attention. Always a pleasure...J
Thanks as always for the info you share with your subscribers. I took a fall off of my Men's Touring Bicycle knocking out two bottom front teeth on the gear shift lever. My Dentist wants $ 4,000 per tooth for two implants. Absolutely Outrageous !!! You provided the answer now. My wife and I enjoy riding ' shotgun ' in your Van as you travel America's highways and byways !!!
Russ, just wanted to say thank you for all the videos you posted over the last few months. I made a 5 week trip to RTR and checked out lots of blm locations and business', many thanks to the information you shared. Really enjoyed it. Cheers !!!
Casino name is pronounced (phonetically) Kay-shon. Dr. Brown Sam is the best dentist and his office staff are great also. Look forward to my yearly check ups from now on.
I can't imagine a three hour wait being uncomfortable like that. I'm glad things are getting on for you. I've seen other videos on Algodonas in which a lady and her friends visit one of their favorite places to eat during her dental trips. Her new teeth look so natural. The food always looks amazing. I certainly have to go down their for the experience. Great video and feel better soon.
I live in NM and I worked with a few people who went to Juarez, got picked up in a designated location on El Paso, had their work done, and were returned back to El Paso afterward. The only drawback was if anything went wrong there was no malpractice claim available. One guy I knew went to Tijuana for medical. No problems for he and his wife.!
Russ, you’re amazing. Even tho this was filmed in 2019 it’s STILL helpful, and I’m going to check out the Mexico playlist. I need to have dental done. Kind of nervous to do it alone but, via this channel, You were my Guide to Quartzsite and you’ll be my Guide to other places that I need and would like to go see. Thank you for all you do!!
Good mornin' Russ, how you doin'? I enjoyed the trip to the border but glad i didn't go into the dentist. The casino camping facility seems to be popular - makes me wonder why they don't develop it and install hookups. So back next week again for your final fling with the dentist then you can get a t-bone for lunch! Stay safe Russ and keep up the good work.
If they fillall or most of that huge lot daily, why bother? Simple and sweet source of revenue. Brilliant! Kudos to the tribe for providing the service.
@@geraldhenrickson7472 Hi GH, thanks for your reply. I'm not a '...why bother' kind of a guy. One of my many faults is when i see something my mind goes into overdrive to see how i could improve things. I'm not motivated by money so it doesn't figure in my thinking. I agree, much respect to the tribe for the service, i just happen to think it could be better. Thanks again GH.
You’re the best tour guide. Good luck with the pie cutters🦷. Last Friday I got my perm bridge put in. It’s about 1/3 of what’s coming. Dentist offered to start pullin 3 other teeth before root canal. I declined, wanted to start eating right away.😆
love your video's Russ, Your a kick back guy easy to listen to. Now i no quartsite like the back of my hand and only been there a couple times, thanks to your video's. could you give a comparision on what a guy can save going to mexico for dental work? just a example like in a crown or root canal. thanks.
Russ, I'm back to Los Algodones on Monday 18th after root canal rest time hopefully get final crown finished by 20th. I asked the US Border Officer about this passport thing since a fellow camper only has California driving license, no passport. He just asked if the guy was US citizen then said no problem.
Had all my teeth pulled in Algodones in the late 90's. The dentist ground the jaw bone down with a Dremel drill and sewed them up in about 21/2 hours. Gave me a prescription for pain (10) pills and my brother in law drove me home to Atascadero CA. Had to drive back down on a 450cc Honda motorcycle as no dentist in town would remove the thread, so stayed for a week in Yuma.
Had no clue that you made videos before RV or TV that I know today in courtside seen a video you did on the Salton Sea and a few others really cool their Rush how many years do you go back
That building Doctor Magaña n doctor Medina an don liquis stared building when I was 11 years old. I'm now 53 years old..it's been some time ago... Also I just wanted to let you know the parking lot it used to be a super mater back in 1978 call Andrade super market it was there until 1987.. last time I stop in the store..Is get hotter than hell...
Hi Russ Happy Valentines Day Yaaaaaa its over almost LOL It looks like a nice small town and they help many who wouldn't do anything with there health issues because of money. So good for them. till next time I wish you could fly the drone. But that would not be cool. A sign would go up looking for one male Russ last seen crossing. LOL LOL ByeBye
Glad to hear all is going well. Do you need any documents to get into Mexico from the US? I know either a passport book or card is needed to get back into the US. Thanks.
Herbal Theraneem saved my bad teeth, yeah literally. I love the cinnamon flavor. In India they have been chewing on the neem branches for generations with very little dental decay, some smart person made toothpaste out of the leaves branches etc... store the tube with cap down to prevent it from paste drying out. a small pea size is all you need so tube last a while ;) can also (or instead of) do coconut oil pulling (see youtube for instructions)
Thanks for all the great info Rus. Just found out I need a ton of dental work so I'll probably be seeing Dr. Brown before too long. He should give you a commission!
Thank you Russ for all you do. I look forward to leaving Wisconsin and head west to see your dentist! Any good mexican food ( not roadkill) down there you can recommend?
I know this is an old video but, was wondering if you could tell me how far of a walk is it in to the dentist? Have a disabled husband can't stand or walk long. Thank you
@@lilly662 didn't last a year? it's supposed to be the longest lasting type of filling available. Did the glue just come off or the material wore down that fast?
Only Mexican citizens can have a gun and I believe they need to be a ranchero ot have another good reason. MNost in the cities I have met have never held a gun and would not want one.
been in the us for a while now,but share your feeling about this country.I have cross the us/mexico borderstomanytimestocountand have the same feeling every time.
Since You had implants put in your mouth. Could you, In a video one day, tell us if you had your whole mouth done, or just the top, or bottom, or just the molars on top and/or bottom. I don't remember if you ever said. Also, if the dentist did X-rays to check them. Why I am wondering is because I have read, on a American Dentist website, that when dentist put the top implants in, sometimes, they accidentally go through the sinus cavity which causes issues with the sinuses the rest of your life. I would hate to see you with sinus problems. I am thinking about going there for mine next winter. Tired of false teeth and Fixadent.
Annie, what you describe could happen at any dentist anywhere. Why ask someone to go into detail. Would it not be better to simply get some recommendations on a good dentist in Los Algodones?
I feel the same way when I cross back and forth to Mexico. I also get so frustrated when such a relatively poor country can have health care for all, and we can’t.
You're right but Mexico is not a poor country.
@@m1sh474 That's what I don't get it either that misconception about Mexico being poor and 3rd World. Some people are just misinformed.
Las noticias siempre muestran a México como el país pobre, hasta que vienen y se dan cuenta.
Always a relief to get out if the dentists chair, lol. Exactly, good and bad everywhere. Thanks for taking us along. 😊👍
That was - THE BEST - Los Algodones video I've seen. Great job!

@ Road Runner There are many dentists (and pharmacies) in Los Algodones! It seems like every third address is one or the other.
Thanks for sharing as I'm looking into dental work there.
Russ, was watching a Bonanza rerun today and they were in Tyson Wells, AZ. Also had Camp MacDonald on the sign? Pretty cool.
Congrats your done!!! Happy Valentines Day. Don't forget to buy her some flowers!
Good to hear your almost finished. Happy trails.

Do you suggest paying cash for items and services in Mexico or do you use a credit card?
cash work....CC are safe dont use a debit card
Glad to hear all is going well.
Do you need any documents to get into Mexico from the US? I know either a passport book or card is needed to get back into the US. Thanks.
You walk right in. No challenges, just follow the path.
Thanks Dave!
Went today!! Loved it!
The LTVA just west of the casino charges $40 for 2 weeks.

Enjoyed that Russ :-)

I just came back from Algodones, the dentist are right next to the border. Is a small town and all dentist are closed by.
@@lilly662 do you know if they do inlays in any if those dental offices?
@@floydcage2494 they do but I wouldn’t do that, I had one done and it didn’t last a year I suggest a crown the price is 300
@@lilly662 didn't last a year? it's supposed to be the longest lasting type of filling available. Did the glue just come off or the material wore down that fast?
Thanks Russ.
Why didn’t you drive over? Thanks for another excellent video!
my auto insurance doesnt cover mexico.... would of had to change policy.... wasnt worth it for couple trips.... its a short walk just a loooooong wait
Awesome video
Do we have to exchange our money to pesos ? Is there an hour we have to leave if the border closes for the day/ night?
From what I seen I don’t think so, u can pay with USD dollars if u get dental work, and by 3pm they close the border, because of COVID
You said there were more videos of your dental trips to mexico. Do you have a link?
Sad and sick that US citizens need to go to Mexico for affordable dental ! Shame on our government!
Heard the buffet in the casinos went way up in price these days. Years ago they were cheap.
The daily breakfast buffet is only $5 with Q Reward card shown. It's a good buffet and unlike many casinos coffee is included.
@@davidtwomey5937 Wow thanks.
If you got weeks worth of dental why not take RV into Mexico? Anyone know about that as an option?
I guess it's a big savings on dental or health care. I did not know u couldn't take a gun over the border. I plan to go sometime thanks.
Mike Brandenburg you cant take a gun over any border.
@@jimderksen1653 Didn't know that. Thought it would be ok to keep in my travel trailer.

I seriously need dental care 😫 what do I need to go across the border??
I was just there last week, you need a passport to cross back into the usa.
Nice
Russ, buddy, are you OK to drive after the dentist visit? Cuz, I'm always a little loopy after that.
been in the us for a while now,but share your feeling about this country.I have cross the us/mexico borderstomanytimestocountand have the same feeling every time.
Are you still happy with that dentist?
I may have missed it if you said. How long did it take you to cross the border back to US? Great video Russ.
tuesday was 3 hours weds was 30 minutes
👍👍👍👍👍
Thank ya, Russ!!! ;-))))
You did answer my question. Do I need a passport? I will have to see how I can get one. Great Video!! :)
