I sat down in the chair in tears. I saw two dentists here in Playa del Carmen and one in Cancun and I was on 5 rounds of antibiotics and they did 6 (yes, 6) treatments on a fractured molar where it got even more fractured. I was in excruciating pain. I researched this clinic and all the doctors here. Even though they have great reviews, I hope anyone that can read this will appreciate the traumas I have been through and how sick I was feeling. Dr Esteban calmly explained what was going on and decided to go on this journey of healing, I knew I lost my molar and it needed to be extracted. I had a panic attack just before, he got a blanket for me and he was so gentle and calm and put me at ease. Molar was extracted, which followed 2 weeks of pain, infection and more antibiotics, I really thought I would never feel great ever again. But I did. After two weeks of no eating, I needed more work done... in a matter of a month, I had a tooth extraction, bone grafting, cleaning, one endodontic procedure, fillers... I wanted to wait a little before I wrote this review because today, I am smiling, I have zero pain, my gums are healthy again, I can smile and I am just so blessed and grateful for you guys! I look forward to continuing my journey (I want to get braces, fix more cavities, get an implant) and I finally feel I am in great hands. I can't recommend you enough, thank you, thank you, thank you!

My reply to a question on messages:…read more Re: "Dentaris Riviera Maya" & Dr. J. Berron DDS, Cancun: Sorry I just saw this. Yes, we are happy to continue recommending Dr. Joaquin Berron @ Cancun. We knew Joaquin when he was on the LSU Dental Faculty, teaching "Prosthodontology" under Art Mendez, and like them both. Berron is much more personable. If considering a trip, some considerations are: 1) How easy is it for YOU to go back-&-forth? 2) How much work do you need? 3) Do you like & feel safe in Mexico? 4) Do you have a local. Family Dentist for minor follow-up services? Berron & his staff/facility are BETTER than any dental operation we've been to in the USA. He gives detailed plans with cost & options ahead of time. Their Achilles' heel was the slow dental prosthetics lab, which took a week to make permanent devices. Then, if there were any problem, it would take a week to fix it. Berron is dedicated to providing World class services; so I'd bet the lab issue has already been fixed since our last visit around 2018. If one lives where there are direct flights; the best may be to go home for a week, then go back to finish. In our several experiences there, we found that the dental costs, plus the costs of the vacations, still beat U S prices. Also, I cannot speak for any of the other practices in "Dentaris Riviera Maya", which seems a loosely associated group with separate office facilities. Dr. Berron is quite expert at doing his own extractions & grafting, so most services are one-stop. If these considerations fit you, do consider going. We stayed at the local LaQuinta Hotel, but there are many other options at the beach. Once you see the quality, expertise, & detailed care; you will be confident. The entire operation is World Class. They will advise on, or even handle, some ravel details and provide local pick-up & drop-off for dental visits (only). The visit preparations resemble a concierge service in many ways. The only negative we found in our several visits was the slow prosthetics lab. Dr. Berron was well aware of this and was working on improving it on our last visit. As Cancun's Intercontinental Airport has grown into a major "Hub", other "international medical services'' flourish there, it has become an important industry for Quintana Roo & all Mexico. There is a website, and they do answer questions. Rick (M.D., Louisiana)

Dr Joaquin Berron' and Staff-…read more I hired Dr Berron to remove an old "ALL in 4" and place a new one. This would require 3 trips to Cancun. Nov 2024- Trip # 1 would require the removal of the existing ALL in 4 and bone grafts Bone Grafts- I had extensive lower bone grafts done at this clinic. However Dr Joaquin Berron' was not capable of completing them and hired a specialist from outside his practice. The surgeon hired did an excellent job and when my dentist back home took a 3D xray upon my return- he praised his skill Jun 2025- Trip #2. Dr Berron placed 4 implants on the bottom and fitted me for a lower temporary prosthetic. The implants were imbedded into the lower bone at a slant! And the temporay lower was poorly made and a colossal fail. It pinched and didn't fit properly. The day or surgery- I was taken back to my hotel room in pain and he knew this. I was told to give it a chance and he would see me again the next day. Upon arrival the next day which was Thursday morning- it was not any better and I wanted him to remove it and improve it. But he refused- instead he attempted to "grind" it down- while it was screwed down on my lower jaw. Only then did he inform me that he planned to leave town and I would have to wait 5 days to see him again- which would be late the afternoon the following Monday. At that point- I changed my airline flight and flew back to the states the next day and told him I would find someone else.. Upon arrival locally - I made an appt to see my regular dentist. When he looked at the recent xrays he was shocked and refused to comment- other then to say "I will keep my opinion to myself" Dr B and myself exchanged multiple emails - and text messages and I have copies of everything I have quoted on this email. I waited 3-4 months to heal and then In Oct I hired another dentist to make the permanent lower and his clinic did a fabulous job. In closing- I will add this. Dr B deserves a 1 star for the inferior job that he did- and for abandoning me and leaving Cancun when he knew perfectly well- it didn't fit and I was in pain because the quality of the prosthetic was so poorly made. But I didn't, I left a 2 star because his staff is exceptional! I regret going to his clinic and I would never ever hire him again

I cannot recommend Dental Spa in Playa del Carmen highly enough…read more Over the past two weeks, Dr. Victor and his outstanding team have provided me with exceptional dental care, including fillings, a root canal, periodontal treatment, and preparation for porcelain veneers. What impressed me most was Dr. Victor's conservative approach. As my gums responded better than expected, he adjusted my treatment plan to be less invasive. Rather than simply following the original plan, he based his decisions on how I was actually healing. That gave me tremendous confidence that he always put my best interests first. The entire staff has been professional, friendly, patient, and genuinely caring. Every question I had was answered thoroughly, and I never felt rushed. When one of my temporary veneers accidentally came off while I was still adjusting to them, Dr. Victor personally made time to see me the very same day before my flight back to the United States. That level of dedication and customer service is rare and meant a great deal to me. Although I'll be returning soon to receive my permanent veneers, my experience so far has exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Dr. Victor, Dental Spa, and the entire team to anyone looking for outstanding dental care in Playa del Carmen. Thank you all for taking such great care of me!

ALL other dental work is outsourced to someone else (even xrays have to be done elsewhere). This is basically a sales office and tooth whitening clinic for tourists. We did get take their advice and get the 3D xrays FROM ANOTHER VENDOR; this place can only do small segment xrays (1 tooth at a time). 3D xrays from a different vendor are CASH ONLY and full 3D (top and bottom) = 1,600 pesos (~$90 usd). You get the xrays on a cd and can take it anywhere in the world *thumbs up* After getting a 2nd opinion from another well-known local dentist... They went over the 3D xrays tooth by tooth with us and found NOT 7 cavities, just 2. We found NOT 4 extractions + 4 implants; instead: 1 extraction, 1 crown replacement (cosmetic) and 2 root canal/crowns TOTAL. It's not a good sign when you hear that a place is NOT even certified to do all the work of a dentist, but instead call themselves a "dental spa". This place is is good for a chipped tooth and tooth whitening while in vacation (no wait), but you will be paying prices like home.

His pricing was clear and fair, and he stuck to his word--no hidden fees, no surprises, which made the whole experience even better. He made a dental impression for a crown and told me to return in just a couple of hours--unbelievable compared to the weeks it takes back in the U.S.!

While we aporeciate the quick fix, this place does NOT provide long term solutions for dental care. My feeling is that our assigned dentist (used to be a "body piercing artist") has a lot of potential, BUT does not have the experience to be doing anything more than cleanings at this point. We had an impossible time following up and making plans/arrangements for repair of previous work done via phone. We were never able to reach anyone via phone to make a plan for repair. We showed up in person and had a difficult time communicating with staff regarding the issue with previous work done. End result: Partially our fault for not being fluently bi-bilingual... Previous work (fillings and chip repair) was a temporary fix and did not last 6 months *sadness* Lesson learned. When it matters, just spend the money and get dental done right the first time in the U.S.A. They clearly have lessor standards of quality and experience requirements here in Mexico *sad face*

PLEASE Read This BEFORE CHOOSING Cancun Dental Specialist…read more Picture this: you save money for months--or even years--to travel to Mexico and finally fix your smile. You put your trust in a clinic with your natural teeth, believing that if something goes wrong, they will stand behind their work. Unfortunately, that was not my experience. I traveled to Cancun Dental Specialist to restore my four upper front teeth. My treatment included two crowns and two veneers, and I trusted the recommendations made by their clinical team. Within days of the procedure, I noticed that one of the veneers already had a small defect. It didn't feel or look like the others, and I reported my concern to the clinic shortly afterward. By that time, however, I was no longer in the country, making an immediate return impossible. Because I notified the clinic as soon as I became aware of the problem, I would reasonably expect that communication to have been documented in my clinical records as part of my treatment history. Over time, that same veneer eventually suffered a partial loss of material in the exact area where the original defect had appeared. The most disappointing part has not been the restoration itself, but the way my case has been handled. I have provided clinical photographs, X-rays, my current dentist's treatment estimate, and a detailed explanation of the timeline of events. Despite this, the clinic has declined to submit my case for clinical review unless I first provide a written dental report documenting the diagnosis from when the problem first appeared. The problem is that the defect first appeared several years ago. Requiring a report documenting what was observed at that time is, in practical terms, asking me to produce documentation retrospectively--something that simply cannot be done today. Another disappointment is that the main reason I sought treatment was to improve the appearance of two root canal-treated teeth that had become discolored. Despite the treatment, that discoloration is still visible today. After my treatment, I learned that many dentists recommend considering internal bleaching before placing veneers or crowns on root canal-treated teeth to help achieve a more natural and uniform result. Had that option been discussed with me beforehand, I would have gladly accepted the additional cost, because correcting that discoloration was the entire reason I decided to undergo treatment. After seeking a second professional opinion, I was informed that, given the current condition of my teeth, the recommended solution would likely involve crowns rather than veneers. That means correcting this situation today could require a significantly more extensive and considerably more expensive treatment than the one I originally underwent. Medical tourism requires an enormous amount of trust because once healthy tooth structure is removed, there is no way to reverse it. Patients rely on the clinic not only to perform quality work, but also to respond fairly when concerns arise. I understand that warranties have limits. However, my concern has NEVER been about asking for a warranty years later. My concern is that the issue began almost immediately after treatment. I reported it to the clinic as soon as I noticed it, but I wasn't in a position to travel back to Cancun so the restoration could be evaluated and the problem corrected. In my opinion, any fair clinical assessment should take that history into account rather than rely solely on documentation that can no longer be obtained years later. Despite the evidence I have provided, my case has still not been reviewed by the clinical team. If you are considering traveling here for dental work, ask yourself one simple question: If something goes wrong after you return home, will this clinic genuinely review your case based on the available evidence--or will the passage of time become more important than the evidence itself? I sincerely wish my experience had been different.
