I needed dentistry work in Mexico, and after some research, decided on Dental Corporation. I'm extremely happy with the results and will absolutely be returning! Here's my experience.
I needed to have my metal amalgam (mercury) fillings replaced. Researching dentists, I discovered "sedation dentistry". As dentists terrify me, I knew I wanted this.
I found 3 candidate dentists that offered dental sedation, then called each one. One put me on hold to find an English speaker and left me there. Another was OK, but I got a lukewarm reception and some attitude. The Dental Corporation person was really friendly and thoroughly answered my questions, plus their prices for sedation were lowest. I scheduled a visit.
The waiting room was very pleasant and sunny, with modern decorations. Plus it was separate from the main area, so I wouldn't hear any possible drilling or other scary sounds. I could tell they worked hard to make it as calming as possible, and they succeeded.
I entered the office and was impressed with their loft-style interior design. I started talking with Dr. Moreno about what I wanted, and I liked him right away. He was very positive, knowledgeable, and as he answered my questions, I felt he was being completely honest with me, and genuinely cared about my wellbeing.
When we went into the room for the initial evaluation, I approved of the modern equipment and lighting, very professional. The X-rays required no biting down on some unpleasant gizmo. He showed them and pics he took of my mouth on a big TV, and explained everything in detail. In addition to removing the metal fillings, I had cavities, old fillings wearing down, etc. I wasn't sure what beyond the metal fillings I wanted done, and he printed me out a clear list of all the work I needed, with prices.
After deciding on what I wanted I returned to have the work done. They brought in a separate professional to do the sedation, he seemed very competent and did a great job. I sat in the chair, they put me out, and three hours later I woke up having all the dental work done with no problems - awesome!
I was pretty groggy and they said to rest in the chair until I was ready, no rush. I told them I was dizzy, likely due to low blood sugar from the fasting required by the sedation, they brought me bottle of yummy fruit smoothie, and after a while I was ready to get up.
I was still a little dizzy so Dr. Moreno sat with me in the waiting room until I was ready to call an Uber, even though it was past closing time and everyone else had left. Then he watched to make sure I made it into the car safely! I was really impressed with his compassion and dedication.
So you can see why I'm a huge fan of Dental Corporation. I highly recommend you try them - you will be too! read more
