    Found this Dental Clinic Dr Ignacio De La Vega from Yelp for having a #1 Rating. Had all 4 Wisdom molars removed at 46yrs old, 2 standard extraction and 2 lower had to be surgically removed from a Professional Dental Surgeon and her name was Dr Edith. (Amazing Work)Everything went perfect, with very little to no discomfort and I was up and running the next day like nothing ever happened. I highly recommend the Dental office of Dr Ignacio De La Vega and his staff. Everybody there is so kind and they treat you very well and they all show that LOVE what they do. Their office is close to Hotels and parking structures and pharmacies.( They speak English as well) Thank you Dr. De La Vega and my Surgeon Dr. Edith and also a personal thank you to Karina the Receptionist and all of the kind staff for your professional service. I found my Dentist office for life!

    We came here for a cleaning and my husband got his tooth capped. We were happy with the cleaning. The dentist was very nice. He wanted to sell us a bunch of more things but no. We just got the cleaning. My husband's tooth had broken and they repaired it, however, the next morning, it broke off. It's not easy to have to go back into Mexico and get this fixed. We will find a better dentist next time. 3 stars for cleaning Negative 2 stars for poor job with his tooth.

    Father and son dentists - Dr De La Vega - happy smiles all round and lots of new teeth!

    I can't recommend the De la Vega Clinic in Tijuana, Mexico, highly enough! I had extensive dental work done here, and the experience was nothing short of outstanding. The treatment I received would have cost me at least three times more in the U.S., but the quality of care was on par with, if not better than, what I've experienced at home. Before deciding to have the work done, I consulted with my dentists in Oregon, who confirmed that the treatment plan recommended by De la Vega Clinic was exactly what they would have suggested. After the work was completed, my dentists back home were thoroughly impressed, describing the dental work as exemplary. Knowing that my local professionals hold the work in such high regard only reinforces the exceptional standards at De la Vega Clinic. The clinic itself is easy to access, just a $3 taxi ride via Uber or Didi from the pedestrian border. The staff at the clinic are warm, friendly, and make you feel completely at ease throughout the process. From start to finish, I felt like I was in expert hands, and the level of care and professionalism exceeded all my expectations. If you're considering dental work and want high-quality care at a fraction of the cost, De la Vega Clinic is the place to go. I'm beyond grateful for the work they did and wouldn't hesitate to return for future treatments! Dr De La Vega +52 664685 1202 or US (619) 399-3538 Email: drfelipedelavega@gmail.com

    Before, During & After

    My 5-STAR Review! I am a 58 year old woman from Oregon. I decided to go to Tijuana to get my dental work done after I was quoted $25,000 - $50,000 to fix my teeth in the States. A process that could take over a year. I was missing six teeth, I could no longer chew most foods, my bite was off and I was miserable. I was told by several people to skip Tijuana and go to different parts of Mexico. "Tijuana is dangerous, etc." Well I am here to tell you differently. When I had made my decision to go to Tijuana I started to research dentists. I made several calls and left messages. I came across Dr. Ignacio De La Vega. There was something about their website that made me feel comfortable. I called and immediately spoke with someone who spoke English. My frequent questions were promptly answered via email and telephone, the prices were more than fair. It didn't take long for me to decide De La Vega was the dentist for me. That is an understatement. I explained specifically what I thought I needed and asked if they could do it within a weeks time. They told me they could so I booked the appointment and the trip. Dr. De La Vega and his son/parter Carlos, who did all my work, referred me to two hotels within walking distance of their office. I chose the closest one, the Hotel West Plaza. It is a very nice, affordable, clean, full service hotel, with a spa, gym and restaurant with room service. It perfectly suited my needs and it was only a block and a half from the hotel, on the same street. No taxi's needed. Not only was the procedure pain free, it only took four days. Monday, they did all the work, gave me temporaries, and sent me on my way until Thursday when my final teeth would be ready. My new teeth are perfect. They look and feel real. I am beyond words at this point. I feel like a totally new person and I owe it all to the whole team of professionals at Dr. De La Vegas office. Everyone was professional, knowledgeable, gentle and they were fun to work with. My daughter met me there from Los Angeles and we had the best time in Tijuana. We shopped, we ate at fabulous restaurants, but mostly we walked around taking in the culture and our surroundings. You have to be safe wherever you go but I truly believe Tijuana gets a bad rap. I arrived by myself at night, crossed the border on foot and I left by myself and not once did I feel unsafe. The whole experience is one my daughter and I will never forget. Dr. De La Vega, Carlos and the crew gave me a whole new lease on life. For that I am forever thankful.

On the way out you pay for parking with for the allotted time you were there. The grocery store and other little stores are on the first floor and a lot of clinics/dentist offices are on the second floor. Once you get to the second floor, there'll be someone at the main door asking you to check in and that really just states your name and how many people are with you and what office you're going to. There is a staircase, and there is an elevator to get to the second floor. The office is small but very clean but unfortunately in Mexico, what happens sometimes is that the running water stops working and you cannot use the restroom since there is no water to flush the toilet. The two girls at the front are really nice and are really inviting. Feel free to ask them any questions you have. Dr Yasmin introduced herself and she was very lovely and she is the person who did my cleaning and my teeth whitening. She was very lovely as well and she kept asking me if I was OK and was very attentive. So what happens first is that the doctor will check you out and make sure that the items you requested can actually happen that day and then someone comes and gives you a quote and if you would like to continue, you sign the quote and then the work is started. It was my very first time doing a teeth whitening, and while she was doing it, it did not hurt at all, but I did experience some teeth sensitivity around an hour later. The teeth whitening is four sessions of 15 minutes under some sort of lamp on your teeth. It is a small quaint clean office. I would definitely go back.

    My All-on-Six Dental Implant Experience in Tijuana…read more I want to share my experience with this clinic -- the dentists, the surgeons, and what it's really like traveling to Tijuana for all-on-six dental implants. I started this journey to finally replace broken teeth and fill in the back teeth I'd been missing for years. A family friend who works in dental tourism referred me here (he's got contacts all over Mexico if anyone needs a referral -- his site is cancunallonfour.com). After my initial consultation, we scheduled surgery to remove 14 teeth and place my implants. Dr. Leo is honestly the best -- I had some bone loss going in, but he assured me it wouldn't be an issue, and he was right. He didn't rush the bridge either; he wanted the implants to heal fully and the bone to integrate completely first. Four months later I went back to have the posts placed, and I'd healed so well we skipped temporaries and went straight to the zirconia bridge. Dr. Challi did the actual teeth, and she's truly an artist. I stayed a full week to make sure everything was perfect, and it is. They treated me with so much respect the whole way through. The clinic is at New City Medical Plaza, literally five minutes from the border, and the hotel on the other side of the plaza is excellent too -- we stayed there both trips, and the whole team was there for us every step. And I almost forgot the best part: between the surgery, the teeth, and all the time they spent with me, the total cost was about 70% less than what I'd been quoted in the US. I'd recommend X Dentistry without reservation for any dental work. I couldn't be happier -- if you're thinking about going to Tijuana, this is it!

    **Please use caution.** I was referred to this dental office by a friend, and the reviews seemed…read morepositive. Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing and concerning experience. The staff members were friendly; however, the office appeared to be overbooked, and I felt that the dental work was rushed. I was scheduled to receive two zirconia crowns with titanium abutments. During my first visit, the doctor was kind, but a screw from my implant fell into the back of my mouth and nearly went down my throat. I almost choked, and the situation could have become very serious. Thankfully, I was able to remove it before swallowing it. Before my second visit, I called one day in advance to confirm that my crowns were ready. After traveling from Los Angeles to Tijuana, I was told that they were not ready. I waited approximately three hours in total, including about an hour for the crowns to be placed. I was extremely disappointed with the crowns' material, shape, fit, and color. I contacted the office, sent photographs, and requested a partial refund, but I did not feel that they took accountability for the quality of the work. I later had to visit a dentist in the United States to have my front crown corrected. That dentist agreed that the shape and color were noticeably off. They also confirmed that the crown had been cemented and that a titanium abutment had not been used as I had requested. Based on my experience, I recommend carefully considering whether the travel and possible follow-up complications are worth it. It may be safer and more practical to have this type of dental work completed locally, especially if corrections are later needed. One photo shows a temporary crown made by my dentist in the United States, which looks significantly better than the permanent work completed by X Dentistry.
