Dental Implants Surgery
In Mexico, dentists have been offering dental implants for many years. Many of the dentists in Tijuana, within our group, have had extensive training and practice in dental implant placement. The technology just keeps getting better, and our Tijuana dentist are quick to take advantage of bettering themselves with classes and seminars.
Guided Surgery
Guided dental surgery involves using CT and laser scans to create a custom three-dimensional guide for implant placement. This method minimizes gum cutting, reducing pain and speeding up recovery. However, it takes more time and incurs additional costs, with the potential for a more precise outcome compared to traditional implant placement.
New UV Dental Implants
A new dental implant with faster healing times has emerged. By using intense UV light radiation to remove impurities and promote instant bonding with the patient's biological material, it achieves osseointegration in just 6 to 8 weeks, compared to the 3 to 5 months required for traditional implants. Though it comes at a slightly higher cost of $125, it offers quicker healing and a lower risk of failure.
All on 6” dental implants full arch replacement
An 'all on 6' dental implant procedure in Tijuana, Mexico provides an attractive alternative to traditional dentures. After the initial implant placement, patients return in 4 to 5 months for a fixed zirconia dental appliance. This appliance feels and functions like real teeth, securely attaching to the implants and eliminating the discomfort of dentures. It stays in place and is only removed by a dentist for cleaning.
Cosmetic Smile Makeover
Many individuals dream of improving their smiles but are deterred by the high cost of dental procedures in the U.S. In Tijuana dental clinics, skilled dentists offer affordable solutions, with costs about one-third of U.S. prices. Whether through veneers or crowns, these dentists can transform smiles, providing flexibility in addressing dental issues.
Zirconium Crowns
Zirconium, known for its exceptional hardness, is a preferred material for dental crowns. The process involves a 3D scan of the patient's teeth, followed by the creation of a new shape using a CAD/CAM program and milling machine. For improved aesthetics, dentists may suggest adding a porcelain layer to the front of the crown. Newer high-grade zirconium options offer increased translucency, enhancing cosmetic outcomes.
Root Canals
Our clinics insist on qualified root canal specialists for thorough treatment, including nerve and blood vessel removal, infection management, post insertion, and core reinforcement. We prioritize quality over cost-cutting by avoiding non-specialized dentists performing root canals, as some downtown clinics do.
General Dentistry
Of course, at all our Tijuana dentist offices, we also do general dentistry. That includes cleaning, whitening, fill cavities with white resin, crowns, veneers, dentures. We even offer braces, and pediatric dentistry.
Ct Scan
When a physical dental exam does not show clearly that there is enough bone, we may do a ct scan. A digital x-ray will show bone height, but not thickness. A CT scan is three dimensional, and will show everything, even helping to determine bone density. That way, if there is any doubt, a CT scan will show the dentist the optimum position and angle to place the implant.
Sedation Dentistry
In a Tijuana dentist office, the Mexico Department of Health, will not allow a general dentist to preform IV sedation dentistry. It can only be done in a certified operating room, and under the direct supervision of a certified anesthesiologist, present to always check his heartrate and vital signs. This make it difficult for the vast majority of dentists in Tijuana to offer sedation dentistry. If the do, they try to do it in a clandestine manner, and hope they don’t get caught, because it will cause them to have the clinic closed. However, for the clinics of Mexico Dental Network, this is not a problem. One of our clinics is located in a building that has a small private hospital with 2 certified operating rooms. We can prep the patient in our clinic, and then take them into the hospital, and do the surgery with IV sedation, very easily.
