Dr. Ignacio de la Vega - General Dentistry Near Me - Tijuana, BCN

Dr de La Vega was nothing short of outstanding. His welcoming approach was just the beginning. He demonstrated his commitment to excellence through his work. He explained in detail what would happen throughout the process. I was never left guessing. I appreciate his attention to detail. I would be remiss should I fail to mention his incredible staff who worked in conjunction with him to create a harmonious experience. I am much appreciative for the enthusiasm and aptitude of all that his office demonstrated while I was under his care. read more

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. read more

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 read more

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. read more

Dr. de la Vega finished all the work detailed in my 1st review 2 years ago, everything was wonderful... I recently returned with a broken tooth, and I was so embarrassed because I hadn't had a cleaning or check-up in so long, but needed to have the emergency taken care of. I thought he wouldn't remember me, but I was so wrong... He walked up to me anticipating my arrival, and gave me a very warm welcome: "Always with a smile!" I was so surprised... And of course I always smile when I walk into his office; it's the only dentist's office in the world I'm happy to be at, because everyone is so genuinely kind. As in the past, Dr. de la Vega took excellent care of me: He examined my teeth carefully while taking x-rays, and I was expecting my broken tooth to receive a root canal, however, after telling me he was expecting to do a crown instead, he consulted with his son for a 2nd opinion, and changed his mind... Instead, I only needed a filling! What a pleasant surprise. This saved me time, money and pain. I told Dr. de la Vega that the only thing we hadn't completed from my wish list, was straightening my teeth... I've had buck teeth my entire life. He came up with an idea: Shave the longer tooth down, and it will create an optical illusion, so the teeth no longer look too large. I've attached photos so you can see the outcome, and it took me so long to get used to the new look... I kept glancing in the mirror forgetting he had done this, and it would shock me over and over again to see myself! By doing this he saved me more pain, more money and more time, because now I won't be using Invisalign. The only bad news is that I have a molar with a cavity that has to be pulled, and it's going to take oral surgery because it's impacted, but he's only charging me $225! This would be at least $2,000 in the U.S. I overheard a couple at a restaurant talking about how the boyfriend is dissatisfied with his dentist and is going to find a new one... The girlfriend complained about another friend having to pay thousands of dollars to have her daughter's wisdom teeth removed. That's when I knew I had to interrupt, and tell them about Dr. de la Vega; the man believed me (I showed him my pictures) and promised me he's going to read these reviews. I've been telling everyone! And I already know from past experience, that when I do have the wisdom tooth removed, it will be as painless as possible. When everything was finished and I told Dr. de la Vega that he had saved me a lot of money, he said that's what he cares about, helping people to save their hard-earned money. I'm so grateful to Dr. de la Vega and his wonderful staff! Which reminds me... His son told me, "You're like family already!" I said I feel the same way :) And it was his son who performed all the dental work on this visit, after Dad performed the exam and told him to take very good care of me, VIP. read more

I am from northern CA. I had 4 implants done at Dr. Ignacio. I am very happy with the work. I had great experience with Dr. Ignacio, his son Dr. Carlos, and all of the other doctors and staff who worked on me. I highly recommended them. I have had a lot of dental work done, both overseas and in the US, over the years and I have to say Dr. Ignacio is the best. They provided the codes for insurance submission as well. read more

We have been seeing Dr De la Vega for 6 or 7 years. He and his staff are always friendly and helpful! We appreciate that he stands behind his work 100%. "Dr Nacho" is very Talented in his work. read more

Yo fui con el doctor De La Vega, porque tenía molestias en mi diente de enfrente, y sin preguntarme como quien dice, porque así lo decidió, él me quitó las dos carillas que tenía yo que definitivamente ya tenían muchos años Él decidió tumbarlas y hacerme otros dientes, lo cual yo acepté, porque en esos momentos él se estaba portando sumamente amable conmigo, pues yo iba recomendada por una amiga mutua El trabajo inicial fue reemplazar las dos carillas viejas por las nuevas, y, desgraciadamente uno de los dientes me lo pusieron, cuando yo tenía una infección y ni siquiera se habían dado cuenta El doctor De La Vega, es amable cuando llegas y cuando está cobrando, pero en cuanto hay problemas necesitas más servicios a los que él no está capacitado, se molesta porque tiene que llamar a un profesional que haga el trabajo Afortunadamente, conocí a la doctora Fabiola, que es una magnífica endodoncista, y ella fue la que salvó mi diente frontal, que de otra manera se hubiera perdido, porque el doctor De La Vega, La Vega y Equipo me pusieron el diente, cuando había infección y me causó muchos problemas Aparte de eso se hacerme otros trabajos y me rebajó los dientes de abajo, de tal forma que el metal de mis carillas originales se ve completamente a través de la resina y se negó a ponerme resina nueva, porque él me iba a quitar todo el puente y me iba a poner uno nuevo lo cual al final decidí que no lo quiero hacer por su actitud De manera que yo no pienso regresar con él para ningún trabajo Se molesta, porque él tiene que corregir y volver a corregir trabajos mal hechos En cuanto a alguien se queja, el doctor De La Vega se molesta y ya no quiere atenderte y te lo demuestra a través de su recepcionista Yo no lo recomiendo read more

Dr. Ignacio De La Vega is one amazing doctor. I have had a front bridge from a very young age and never liked the aesthetics of it. I had a huge complex issue because of this and would never really smile or would smile and turn my head down. I told my story to Dr. Ignacio and he was very compassionate and said he would make me smile again. My journey to finding Dr. Ignacio... I looked up many doctors in TJ on YELP and as I'm sure many of you were like me, nervous, scared and not really trusting that these doctors were good. Dr. Ignacio and his son Dr. Carlos had so many good reviews on YELP. They showed me many pictures of other clients that had the same bridge procedure and they all looked great. My results were amazing, I'm very happy with my new bridge and has totally boosted my smile confidence, it's been life changing... You can reach out to me if you have any questions: thegarciateam1@gmail.com I highly recommend Dr. De La Vega and his son Dr. Carlos‼ Thank you both read more

I cannot say enough about everyone at this office. They have literally saved my life. I needed several root canals, a crown lengthening, a few fillings, and 2 bridges. It has taken several trips and every time has been a wonderful experience. The entire staff is always very friendly, attentive, helpful, and genuinely care about you as a person. Yes, they have saved me thousands of dollars, but even if I had to pay what U.S. dentists charge, I would still go there because of how much better care I have received. I will always go to them for my dental care and refer everyone I know! read more

There is not much I can add that hasn't already been added about the dental experience at Dr. Ignacio de La Vega's office. The man himself is warm and charismatic and honest. His staff is top notch; they are all professional and friendly and welcoming and humble. I mean, they are truly grateful for your business. The doctor is one of those people you find yourself admiring and not at all feeling jealous of his success. You embrace it as he does you, not just as a client, but as a family membere. I honestly forget how I learned of him, but learned of him I did and I've never been happier. He's done crowns, molds, cleanings, sinus lifts, I lose track. You will not go wrong because there is no wrong among his staff. There is only a desire to make sure you are a) welcome b) comfortable c) you fully understand what you're costs will be (and why) and d) an outcome that is rarely disputed. A special shout out to Dr. Melissa Gutiérrez who has hands of silk and a bedside manner that is textbook. My teeth looked as good as they had in months. Don't be left out in the cold. Dr. Ignacio de La Vega and his talented team can take care of it. But if he can't, at least you'll know. read more

I went to Dr. Ignacio's practice this last week to get my teeth fixed. I had never travelled to Mexico and while I can speak a enough Spanish to get by in a restaurant, I am not great at understanding it being spoken. I did quite a bit of research before I left and based on all the very positive reviews and location, I felt this practice was my best choice. The first thing I wanted to get out of the way as a first timer to TJ is I felt safer in downtown than I do in places like San Diego, Seattle, Portland and even my hometown of Reno. This office was something like a 10 min walk from my hotel and if you really wanted to, you could literally hop off the trolley in San Ysidro and walk to this place in about an hour and a half. The second thing is everyone I encountered there, from the front reception, to the Dr's and assistants are all incredibly professional and friendly. Literally the most hospitable medical professionals I have encountered and Dr. Ignacio himself is a Rockstar. I've never seen a Dr. walk into his practice and stop to greet the patients and staff in their reception area, especially with the positivity he exudes. Kind of like what a good front man does for his band. His son, Dr. Carlos, who was the main Dr. treating me was also a very friendly, well spoken and considerate and did fantastic job fixing my smile! The procedure I needed to have done was 2 extractions and a dental plate. I have to be honest and say I was not taking good care of my teeth and from years of cigar smoking partying when I was younger, I had a gross buildup of tartar and plaque. The dentist I see here in the states had dissuaded me from getting the bottom teeth cleaned because of the bone loss and told me there was a good chance I would lose some of those teeth if I were to do so. This ended up not being true as Dr. Carlos got them clean and shiny after some work and not a single one even wiggles. I tell you, from the time I entered the chair to walking out with my temporary plate was about 3 hours; and I am talking about the consultation, the impression for the plate, the extractions, cleaning and polishing my teeth and fitting the plate. In the US, this would have been probably 3 or 4 separate visits, with a co pay for each one to maximize the amount of money they can get from your insurance. Forgot to mention that a number of the staff are bilingual so I had no problems communicating and even if I were to include the plane ride there and back as well as the hotel it was still so much more affordable than doing it back home. I can't thank Dr. Ignacio, Dr. Carlos and everyone else at this dental practice enough, my teeth haven't looked and felt this good in probably 20+ years! read more

First time going to Tijuana for dental work. I had a crown on my front tooth, 3 cavities, whitening, and deep cleaning in two appointments. Was a smooth experience and will be using them in the future. read more

Good dentist. Great work. He explained what he was doing and did not push for me to fix more things though I needed it. I just didn't have the time. I will be going back to fix some cavities. The prices are more than reasonable. I read some reviews of the female dentists there that weren't to good, so be weary. My dentist was the son. read more

Dr. Ignacio and his son are the most empathetic, honest, and skillful dentists that I've ever met. While all other US dentists insisted on getting the crown down which would've hurt my finances, his son was able to construct the filler perfectly (my original filler from 10-12 years ago came out so the tooth was already carved quite a bit so it was difficult procedure). Saved tons of money. They have English speaking staffs that always picks up their phone immediately and their office was clean and welcoming. Please go here if you don't have dental Insurance or simply don't wanna pay such a high price! read more

In and out in hours with new teeth. Comfortable, well located office with great staff. Can't recommend enough. We will be back!

I needed an extraction, two bridges and some bonding. A San Diego dental office quoted me over $8000 for everything. I saw the younger Dr. de la Vega and over four visits in October and November of 2025 and I got everything done for less than half that cost. He is extremely fast and meticulous at the same time -- and fully fluent in English and Spanish. The office has four chairs and combines modern computerized equipment with a full lab upstairs where they can render the temporary bridges while you're there. There are a lot of support personnel making everything run smoothly and quickly. The street outside where it's located may look a bit run down, but inside, the clinic itself is modern, efficient and high quality. It's right downtown just 2 blocks from the shopping street Constitucion and 3 blocks from party street Revolucion so it's easy to get to whether by foot (45 minute walk) or by taxi (15 minutes and $10) from the US border. read more

I had 3 implants and one bone graft at this office over the past 5 years. I've never had a problem with any of the procedures. It is a modern office with very talented specialists. Every time I am there I see patients coming from far away, like Colorado or Washington states. Local TJ residents also frequent this office. I live 500 miles away in San Francisco area and it's always worth the trip. They also assist me with forms for reimbursement from Delta Dental of California. (You pay as you are treated by cash or credit card and then you can seek insurance reimbursement.) I often see other Americans in Mexico seeking dental work and those that are going to other offices are paying much higher prices. I highly recommend this office. It's easy to find and it is located in a safe area, very close to the main tourist area. read more

Professional, caring. Grea. Excelente care with the doctors. I would definitely return to them. read more

after receiving an unreasonable quote from a san diego county dentist, i was recommended by a friend to go to tijuana for my dental care instead. i was overwhelmed because i know there's so many dentists there and it was hard to figure out where to start, but i landed on dr. de la vega after a bit of searching and decided to take a chance. i booked about a month in advance but i'm pretty sure they had plenty of room for earlier appointments. i needed a VERY deep clean (about 15 years since my last cleaning) along with a root canal cleaning in one tooth, a crown, and several fillings. i was able to do the consultation, xrays, and half of the work in my first visit, which was unexpected but very appreciated. i'm used to american dentists that want you to make multiple appointments at multiple different clinics over several weeks to get work done, but dr. de la vega's staff was able to get almost everything done in the same building on the same day. the consultation and xrays were also free of charge. the total for everything will land me at about $1300, which is such an improvement over the nearly $5000 i was quoted by american dentists. he will also provide a 10% discount for cash payments, but i didn't have that much cash on me. i believe this office also accepts some american insurances, so your price could be even lower. i spent about 4 hours there, with most of the time being spent on the root canal and crown, and i'll be returning next week to get the crown installed and the rest of my cavities filled, which probably won't take very long. the pain after the procedure was minimal, and plenty of anesthesia was provided during the procedure whenever i needed it. they even offered it for the cleaning if i felt too much pain (but there really wasn't any aside from a bit of the sting near the gums). they reassured me that i'd only feel pressure and a slightly sore jaw during the root canal and they were 100% correct. really the only pain i felt was a small bit of tenderness afterwards that a little ibuprofen cured. i tend to avoid dentists partially because i always leave so sore, but dr. de la vega's doctors were very gentle and precise. the inside of my mouth feels so much cleaner already, i feel like i can really start over and stay on top of my dental hygiene now. we were always lacking the money needed to do regular dentist visits as i was growing up and eventually my teeth felt so unmanageable that i wondered if i could ever get a handle on it. as an uninsured broke american, the difference between these doctors and the ones back home is like night and day. the office is a convenient 30-40 minute walk away from the san ysidro border crossing, so if you want to visit i highly recommend skipping the car line and just walking across if you're able. i crossed the border going into TJ at around 7am on a monday and encountered no line at all, and the way back to the US at around 3pm was a very short line with minimal wait. it goes without saying that the staff there speak english, so communication was not an issue for me. i'm looking forward to completing my work next week and i'll definitely be recommending dr. de la vega to anyone who asks. he seems to understand very well how nervous people, especially americans, can be about dentists and he treated me with much patience. read more

Best Review I want to start off by saying I work in the dental industry in Santa Clarita ca, I have a hard time trusting Dentist's period, So many many Dentist have done horrible work on my teeth, the area does not matter. I came to Dr De La Vega and his son for the thought that I was going to get veneers or crowns. They both told me my tooth was save-able and only needed the minimal work to be done, they filled my front tooth and made it so beautiful, My point is you will never find Dentist this honest and humble ever , anywhere. They are top notch aesthetic work, long story short they could got more out of me, But they have heart for what they do, that is priceless, please come here and trust these Dental Gods, they are so sweet and do things from the heart , read more

Dr. Ignacio de la Vega - Dr De La vega - General Dentistry Near Me - Tijuana, BCN

I spent 6 months researching and 9 trips into TJ just for consultations with the best/top-rated/referred dentists. The dentist I was most comfortable with is Dr. De La Vega. I needed extensive work after a bad accident including several implant, multiple crowns, a root canal + more. Dr De La Vega went over each proposal from the previous consultations, why he agreed with them, or what specifically he didn't agree with. His price was approximately 1/4 of my San Diego and Los Angeles price quotes. The work is absolutely perfect, and was ABSOLUTELY 100% PAINLESS. His team of specialists, especially his son Dr. Carlos De La Vega, are nothing short of miracle workers. I have a debilitating fear of needles and drills and their patience, understanding, and skill at making every single moment pain-free is something that every American dentist needs to learn. They even saved a tooth that I was told needed to be pulled previously. It's now been over 2 years since my treatment plan was completed and I have a perfect smile with absolutely no issues, I've been to 3 different California dentists for cleanings since and each said the dental work is absolutely perfect. When I started this process I did not know where to begin, I only wished I had read a review like this one. I cannot recommend this enough. My San Diego & Los Angeles price quotes ranged from $44,000-65,000...My Tijuana price quotes were $9,000-19,000. Dr. De La Vega completed my dental work at less than 1/4 cost of my California quotes, cheaper than 8/9 of the quotes I received from the top-rated dentists in Tijuana, but was hands down by far the best of all the practices I consulted in Tijuana. And again, I waited over 2 years to post this review so it could be completely honest and include any post-issues I encountered, but I've not experienced anything wrong with any of the work his team did on my mouth. Just a great smile that my American dentists agree is 100% perfect. I cannot recommend him any more strongly - you won't be disappointed! read more

Everything about my visit was superb. The office location was convenient, right in downtown Tijuana. I booked a wonderful hotel (Hotel Grand One Plaza) two blocks away from the dental clinic, so I was able to walk right to my appointment directly from the hotel. All the staff and the dental clinic were very professional and friendly. Dr. De La Vega and his son Felipe (also Dr. De La Vega!), we're both very polite and professional and assured me that I would be treated like family while in their clinic, and I must say, they were absolutely right. Felipe went above and beyond to deal with my three cavities, and he even took an extra x-ray and offered his professional opinion on it to alleviate my concerns about some slow healing near some prior dental work that I had done elsewhere. I had three cavities filled, and the whole process, including drilling and rinsing and filling and solidifying, took about 45 minutes. Felipe was very efficient in his work, which I appreciate, because I don't like to sit in a dentist's chair for longer than is necessary. Another great thing was that this clinic offered a cash discount on the work that I had performed there. I took them up on their offer and was happy with the savings. The pricing here was very reasonable, especially considering the high quality work that they perform, and the relatively luxurious dental clinic that they have. If you want a high-end dentist at a reasonable price, with world-class professionals that greet you with a smile, this is the place for you! read more

My first time here I got my bottom wisdom tooth removed. It was fast and I hardly feel anything. We went for a second time to have my teeth checked.

I live in US and was in need of dental work which my wallet can afford. after a initial e mails and the cost of procedures I made an appointment , and Aug 15, 2024 . Dr Vega was very friendly great interactions with every one in the waiting room and even in person welcomed me and inform me he will be with me shortly. when I was finally in the dental chair he visually inspected and give me an options and the cost of each options. before I know it His very pregnant associate start doing the cleaning and even start the cavity fillings , without X-rays taken , when she was done Dr Vega come back taken a impressions of my teeth for possible dentures and they send me to a nearby X Ray office to get a full mouth X rays. when that complete been told # 31 wisdom needs to be get extracted which another associate of Dr Vega start the procedure which it was intense and painful ,then send off with prescription of antibiotic and pain killers and the instructions and did want to see me next day. So it is very unfair of me to judge his dentistry skills since he has not perform anything but again his kindness and taking his time to talk to you was amazing he definitely could be a great used car salesman in previous reincarnation. My follow up on next day was pleasant , he fit me with temp partials and told everything looks great so I went back home .I have to call him after 5th day with due to still the pain and infections at the extraction location, he ask me to come back so he can check ,after 7th days due to pain and no dentist where I live ,willing to check the infections especially when they learn it was done overboard so I have to do the 8 hrs round trip drive he immediately see me said everything looks great healing fine it will take while to everything to get back to normal. Unfortunately never did and after many phone calls and this time not the mentioning extraction was done in Mexico, finally local dental office " Clinics del Camino Real " in Oxnard see me They take several x rays and informed me during extraction the Dr Vegas associate left tip of the tooth/ Bone fractions he also damaged the tooth next to it and inflammation is epic now not only the extraction site has to be cut open to clean what it is left ,the tooth next to it has to be extracted with a price tag of $1450 when I inform Dr Vega with the results and the Xray showing what is left and the damaged ,He ask me to come back. I would definitely go back if he was inviting me for a backyard BBQ and his amazing friendliness But his associates dental skill !.. You make that decision at your own risk read more

Dr. de La VEGA has a very theatrical personality. He is very dramatic. If you like that, you'll like him. The equipment, does not give you confidence. The lens on the dental light was broken, with a screw, floating around on the inside. The work Dr. DelaVega did was excellent! It was very good quality, and he does beautiful work. As for the pricing... While it was in the chair, he told me one price. But when I got to the cashier, he had changed the price and added USD5$ read more
