Dental Work in Mexico

Dody · July 21, 2006

There are many from the church I go to that travel to Juarez Mexico across the border from El Paso to have dental work done at the clinic that is part of Emmanuel Ministries (think that's the name). We go on mission trips to the children's home there and do painting and other work around there, help the staff and play with the children. The children's home is Hogar de ninos. They also have a medical clinic and the doc showed me the surgery room and slide show on his computer of a Total Knee Replacement that he and some other docs did there. The lady is now walking around the neighborhood. I was a little surprised, but he also performed a Tummy Tuck on a relative of his. How about that? I think this made me a little more open to having my lapband done in Mexico, along with research and testimonies of other patients.
Oh,and the dental work is less expensive. I know of a guy who needed lots done and had no dental insurance, so he either drove or hopped southwest to el paso and then over to Mexico. Turned out well for him.

There are great denistry colleges in the US also that do work for a very decent price. I would look into all my options and then just follow your heart.
