Affordable dental care with the best team in Cancun Cosmetic Dentistry!

 

Affordable dental care is extremely difficult to find in the USA. Thousands of patients have quickly realized many treatments are completely out of their budget and feel like they won’t ever get the dental solution they need. Luckily for many of them, they have found affordable alternatives by doing dental tourism to Cancun. We are the experts on implant dentistry and have the most professional staff ready to give you the best service. You have never experienced this kind of dental experience. Many of our patients return every year to Cancun to visit their dentist and to have a great time. Patients like Tony, who was looking for affordable implant denture alternatives. Here’s what she had to say with Doctor Krishna.

Hello, I am Doctor Krishna Dueñas from Cancun Cosmetic Dentistry, here we are with Tony and she is one of our patient and she’s been here for a lot of time, a long long time and she is going to tell us a little bit about her experience.

Hello, so nice to meet you this time, cause I didn’t get the chance to meet you before. How many years ago did you come?

About was eight, eight and half

Eight and half years

Yeah

Why did you get done, the first time you were here?

I had on my teeth extracted, I had some implants from before, and then, when my dentist in the States told me how much it would cost to do it, I just cried. And I said I can’t, I can’t do that. I already paid off second second caps, it was in fifty thousand dollars and I can’t approach them, another 30 thousand just for the top and I said that is absolutely ridiculous and then my husband did some research on the internet and found Cancun Dentistry.

As years, you know, your jaw just grows, goes different ways and I had it break it again in a major spot, I just told my husband I just want to get a whole new set, you know and improve my smile and which, she’s awesome. I am very satisfied.

Everything is very sterile, very clean. Everyone is so nice. You can’t ask for a better group people, your team is awesome and I feel you’re more personable helping us out with our issue which is trying to getting rid of. And I think it’s a horrible problem in United States.
I am recommending you for many friends to come here.

What do you think about this clinic in particular? What happened to you?

It’s huge, it’s expanded quite a bit! Nice rooms, very nice rooms, very comfortable, very clean and everyone is just awesome, just it’s so awesome, it’s like my second family.

Thank you so much. It’s been a pleasure to work with you and I’m really happy that the outcome it’s good to you and you’re feel really happy and you’re feel more secure and everything is great and we’ll for sure look forward to see you some time soon so we can keep just the maintenance, if you want to be great, it’s been over take eight years and everything is perfect so I expect to see you for regular checkups and it just to have everything perfect, ok?

Can I get All-on-4 implants just in one side with Doctor German Arzate

 

All-on-4 dental implants are some of the most advanced dental implant protocols available for full mouth restoration, but many patients don’t even attempt to check to see if they are candidates because they are afraid of the cost of a full treatment. We highly recommend anyone interest to get one of our free online evaluations with our doctors because if you are worried about the cost it might turn out you can do a combined dental treatment of one side with all-on-4 (upper or bottom) and the other might only require crowns or perhaps also our other available mini implant treatment Snap in Dentures. Don’t wait on your dental care!

Here are the results of a combined treatment like we mention above with a patient we had recently.

 

I am so happy today because I have here with me today Tameka from Cleveland. How are you?

Great!

Great! And we want to share her story, she came in, how many days ago?

Nine.

Nine days ago! She came in “Doctor can you do something? My teeth! I saw you on the internet. I saw all the videos!”. How many videos you saw?

Oh my God!

Oh my God!

Like over fifty? I had been watching the videos, and what it was so great is I felt like I knew you before I even met you!

Thank you! Well, let’s get to the point. She came in, she wanted a big beautiful change of her smile, confidence, lots of things. And I am going to explain you first the technical stuff, let’s get to look at it! We did an All-On-4 on uppers, me and all my team, they are fantastic!

The dream team!

The dream team! I have the dream team here, we are part of this big dream team. Thank you! Thank you. And we did a big surgery, we extracted teeth, we placed 4 implants, look at the size of the implants, this is a real All-On-4, if someone tells you that the All-On-4 are straight, they don’t know how to do it. They need to be expert doctors to do this type of technique. We placed 4 implants and look at the size of them, and then afterwards we did a screw-retained bar. We worked on the lower teeth, because by the way, they needed a lot of work.

No pain

No pain, root canals, from my crowns.

Yes, exactly! We are the ones.

But you told me no pain?

No, no pain at all

Good! So we did root canals we prepared for crowns, we prepared all the lower area, we did some extractions of the teeth that were not good, and this is the result!

Nine days ago she came in and she is ready to go! She’s ready to go!

Go home!

Go home! Go home! To Cleveland. And that’s what many patients do. Thank you for being part of the family. And you are so happy, what are you saying? Like right now you are Miss Cleveland?

Hola!

Hola! That’s the point

I just wanna say I don’t wanna see you guys again, no I am just- I love each you and everyone! I am gonna dance cha-cha all the way.

So this is…

I learned the cha-cha

Cha-cha good! You need to come to Cancun every year at least to say hi and for a check up.

A year?

And just for a check up, is that ok?

Yeah, and for a cleaning?

Good, good! That’s a good excuse.

Yes.

Ok, so this is another great story of All-On-4, what we do here it’s not magic, it’s just working with three good things: Amazing patients like you as I told you, also excellent materials, remember that we use materials FDA approved, which are the same as they use back home, and obviously the doctors expertise. And behalf of me and all my staff and all my team, the dream team as you said!

The dream team!

The dream team! Exactly thank you so much for everyone!

Muy bien!

Muy bien! Everyone! We wanna thank you. We wanna thank you. Enjoy your smile.

And I will…

Start this big change, and she looks fantastic.

Here we are. I am Dr. Arzate. Thanks for giving us your likes and following us! Here we are in Sunny Cancun. Thank you.

Water flosser? This is the best way to clean your teeth and dental prosthetics!

 

Why should you get a water flosser or water irrigator like Waterpik? Well, we can do the best dental care but it won’t really matter if the patient doesn’t take care of that dental work after their vacation in Cancun. It’s important to remember that we provide a solution but afterward the ball is in the other side of the courtyard. We highly suggest all our patients to get a water flosser for this. This device uses pressured water to clean hard to reach places for the toothbrush and the regular dental floss from food debris and dental plaque. It is essential to use it if you have crowns, implants or even braces to prevent caries and your implants failing. Here’s Doctor German Arzate talking about the details of using it:

 

After any procedure with dental implants is very important the maintenance but the maintenance that our patients do.

What I wanna show you today is one of the many things that you need to do to have that area clean. You need to brush your teeth but you also need to have a good health of the gums.

With your floss, with your toothbrush and also with things like this, the water flosser from water pick is one of the things that I can really recommend you. Remember that the implant is now placed on the bone but is surround it by gum,  there’s always a small space that need to be clean always, always that gap, that micro-gap that we have we don’t want food to be trap there, that’s very important.

So how does this water flosser water big works? I’m gonna show you.

It comes likes this, it has a container for the water, you have this that is a motor with you plug in, and here where you can put all the points that come, different types of points. This machine should last a long time this is very important and it has the on and off button and also it has ten levels. I recommended to be in the middle, depends on how sore so you are the after the implant restorative work of after you place implants, there are so many techniques, and this cord attaches to the attachment that moves here so you gonna put the point here and you gonna feel that click.

This machine is intendent to throw water, we fill this container with water, place it here and it works like a pump, absolutely is a pump, the water is gonna go through this hole that you see here, this hole that you see here and is gonna throw water through here, like those machines where they clean those a streets, which throwing water, well this is specially to dentistry.

This is the way that this machine works and I think is a great invention and it works very good for doctors.

What’s the problem? They probably the doctor has an amazing result with the implant, with restorative work but the aftercare instructions sometimes they are not given. I wanted to do this video because many many patients that I’ve seen, I really recommend this product because it works really really good for them and is part of our continued education with patients. So if you have any questions or doubts don’t hesitate to call us, email us or get in contact with us to our websites and our call centers, but anyway this type of products is gonna be another thing to help you out to have that healthy implants to work.

I’m Doctor Arzate and I’m happy to assist you and whatever you need please don’t hesitate to contact me, thank you.

Porcelain Crown in Cancun teeth tooth

Dental RestorationPermanently Fitted on Top of the Tooth

Reasons a crown may be indicated are as follows:

• Once a root canal has been performed, the tooth tends to become brittle and fragile like glass, which means it is more likely to crack or fracture. A crown placed on top of the tooth will offer protection and make this less likely to happen.
• A tooth that has been filled and now has more filling material than the tooth itself is no longer viable. There is just not enough tooth left to contain the filling so a crown would be recommended.
• A tooth that has suffered extreme damage due to decay would need a crown.
• Crowns are often used to cover discolored teeth as well as to improve aesthetics.
• If a tooth is chipped or fractured a crown can fix this.
• A crown may be indicated to strengthen the adjacent teeth supporting a bridge placed to replace a missing tooth or teeth. A crown may also be recommended for supporting the replacement teeth.
• Crowns are indicated to improve the appearance of malformed teeth caused by genetic disorders such as Dentinogenesis Imperfecta or Amelorenesis Imperfecta.
• Crowns are indicated when teeth are severely worn down and in cases of extreme sensitivity or abrasion.
• When teeth are out of place, misaligned, crowded or have large spaces between them crowns can offer a solution.
• Crowns are used as the super structure on a Dental Implant.

A Dental Crown is basically used to strengthen and offer protection to the tooth structure remaining and can certainly improve the function and appearance of teeth.

Dental Crowns are made of different kinds of materials:

• All metal
• All porcelain
• Porcelain fused to metal

In the recent past several developments have been made regarding the type of ceramics used for creating crowns.

The type of ceramics usedto make crowns fall into six different classifications:

1. The traditional porcelain fused to metal (PFM)
2. Cast ceramic
3. Pressed ceramic
4. Ceramic resin bonded
5. Reinforced
6. Milled ceramic

After examining your teeth your dentist will be able to recommend the type of crown that will work best. It will all depend on the aesthetics and the extent to which the tooth needs to be strengthened. You will need to meet with your dentist at least twice in order to properly fit your crown. On the first visit your tooth is readied for the crown, an impression is made of your tooth, and you will receive a temporary crown is fitted over the tooth being repaired. During your next visit your temporary crown will come off and the permanent crown will be adjusted to fit properly and cemented in place.

Once your crown has been cemented in place you will be responsible for taking care of your prosthesis. You must follow good oral hygiene and visit your dentist every six months for a check-up. Your dentist will examine your crown around the edges to make sure it’s maintaining its integrity and that the surrounding peridontium is healthy. Your adjacent teeth will also be examined as well as all your other teeth.

As with anything else in life, complications can arise. The earlier a problem is recognized the better the resolution. Some of the more common complications are:

• Artificial crown fractures
• Fracture or cracking of supporting crown
• Decay of adjacent tooth
• Gingival margin recedes
• Root canal treatment fails

 

Patient happy to come back Returning patient visits dentist in Cancun 2

What’s the deal with people coming to Cancun for dental tourism? You will have a dentist in Cancun ready to attend you during your vacation… does that sound weird? Maybe. But you will end up saving hundreds if not THOUSANDS of dollars compared to getting the same dental treatments in the USA.

Andriana is a patient that came from Los Angeles and she has a radioshow there! She came a few years ago to get snap in dentures and she returns for check ups and to enjoy the beach. Here’s what she talked about with Doctor German Arzate.

 

 

After three years, guess who’s back!? Andriana! Thank you!

 

It’s a pleasure, I am so happy to be back!

 

It’s a pleasure! Andriana it’s from L.A. And tell me a little bit more about you before we started this story! This story from three years now, that I saw you for the first time.

 

My name is Andriana, I am from Los Angeles, Helenic Radio. It came a point in my life just like many many people that I needed a dental work, to make a long story short, I checked up my options, I was to various places in Los Angeles to get price quotes. I was quoted twenty six thousand dollars just to fix my upper teeth with something like Snap-In-Dentures, and even in my country where doing dental work is much less expensive than the United States I was quoted fifteen thousand dollars, it was cheaper than the L.A., no doubt, but then I started to do some research, and then I came across a lovely June, and I followed her.

 

Hi June!

 

Hi June! I am here again! So I followed her journey and all the work she did with you, I looked into it, I looked into it about I would say like four or five months, I must have seen each video for about twenty to thirty time. And then I said: “No! This is the place that I have to go!”. I contacted the doctor, I sent them photographs of my teeth, of my mouth, various problems I was having. He sent me a video, he told me what solutions he could have for me. We went along, we did it, I booked my hotel, I came here and it was done in one week, at the best place, at the best care, and three years later, “Ding, ding, ding!” the doorbell rang again, and I have to take care of my lower teeth.

 

This product called Snap-In-Dentures, how hard it was for you to get used to it? Because it was a big compromise, she told me “I have speak to many people” so imagine when she came the first time it was like “Oops!”.

 

So, obviously again, I would like to thank June Penny because she helped me out a lot, she answered millions of questions I asking to her, about her experience, so I felt much more comfortable. So it was the same, this time around, I was completed today, here I am talking, and I am making plans on going to dinner and having food and having drinks, cause I have stopped my antibiotics.

 

You deserve it!

 

And I can’t wait!

 

Well, you don’t wanna see the surgery, we did a big surgery, I placed eight implants in lowers, and see, I was concerned about “Wow! She is going to bruise a lot!” but no, none of that.

 

No, I took Arnica. You take Arnica for one week, a full week of before you come to the doctor to have your procedure, and here I am! No makeup, no swelling!

 

And making videos!

 

Nothing!

 

In seven days ago you were in surgery? Well that’s one of the cases with Snap-In-Dentures, we do lots of procedures, but with Snap-In-Dentures this is what you can have, I mean like if you still have some remaining teeth, if they look bad or they are rotten or you don’t like those teeth anymore and you don’t know what to do, this is great option.

 

It is great, and I have to say I wasn’t one of those patients, because there are people that never had good teeth to begin with. I had beautiful teeth, I had very very beautiful teeth.

 

Do all you listeners in the radio have told you what have you done to your voice or something?

 

Not my voice, but my teeth I have had tons of compliments. When I had my first procedure had my first procedure done three years ago and I went back, because I do public speaking at events they were saying: “Wow! Did you do something to your teeth? To your smile?”. And I said: “Yep, I went to Cancun, I had a smile makeover on the upper and everybody was extremely impressed and that’s why many people came over, because they wanted to get the same thing”.

 

Why should I got there? They say on the news say that it’s not safe and all that. Have you seen anything on the times that you have been coming to Mexico, to Cancun, like three years ago and all that. Have you seen anything?

 

No, and been honest I have seen nothing, no problem, no fuss, nothing, I have gone out to dinner with my friend, you know, you have to be careful no matter where you go! Even in California and Irvine. Where I live, which is considered the safest city in America, you still have to be careful, there is nothing happening whatsoever, I haven’t seen a thing. This is my seventh time in Mexico, and my third time in Cancun, so I have nothing to say but the best.

 

Thank you! Thank you Andriana!

 

Thank you!

 

Thank you! It’s a privilege to have you here. Beautiful smile! Here we are in sunny Cancun. I am Dr. Arzate, thank you for giving us your likes in our social media. And here we are in beautiful sunny, turquoise waters in sunny Cancun!

How do eating disorders affect my teeth Cancun Cosmetic Dentistry

 

It’s very important that if you have or had an eating disorder condition you take special care of the state of your teeth. More than 10 million people in America are affected by eating disorders, such as anorexia, bulimia and obesity and each of these diseases affects your body and oral health differently:

• Anorexia: This disease can weaken teeth and bones, even causes xerostomia and osteoporosis. It also causes tooth decay due to dehydration.
• Bulimia: When you induce binges and then purges, you can hurt your teeth due to the acids that come from the stomach. This causes loss of pigmentation and resistance. Eventually all the teeth could be lost.
• Obesity: This is characterized by weak control of hunger, it is a disorder mixed with anxiety and depression. You could have cavities if you do not clean your teeth properly. This is the least harmful disorder for the teeth, but that does not mean it is better, because overeating is dangerous to overall health. Some bulimics use dentures and some anorexic patients may need them.

The best thing to do is have a balanced diet full of calcium, vitamins, minerals and proteins. We recommend you follow the instructions of doctors, psychologists and dentists. Some of the solutions we can provide to patients who’s teeth are affected by eating disorders and have decayed dental pieces could be the use of crowns or bridges. If you have lost some already, dental implants would be the best option if your bone is healthy enough. We always do evaluations to see if you are a candidate for these procedures.

Are there any complications with dental implants Cancun Cosmetic Dentistry

 

There is very little chance that dental implants will fail after their placement, in fact, the success rate is close to 95%. Even so, as in any treatment, complications can occur, usually related to persistent anesthesia in the adjacent nerves or if there was penetration of the maxillary sinuses and the nasal cavity.

These complications are not frequent as long as a specialist is the one who places the implants. But the most important thing is to perform a previous medical evaluation, to make sure that dental implants are the best option depending on your overall health and medical conditions. Currently, although there is more information on this subject, there are misconceptions that most people believe when choosing dental implant treatment, the most common are:

• That dental implants require less care than natural teeth.
• That implant treatment is appropriate for all patients who have lost teeth.
• That dental implants last longer than natural teeth and that there are no risks or complications in the treatment with implants.
• You can eat whatever you like no matter if it’s too hard.

These ideas could lead to problems and ultimately losing your dental implant. You should still be careful when eating hard foods… remember, you have already lost a tooth. Even with a dental implant you should be cautious to avoid fissuring the crown.

 

Regarding general health, there are relative contraindications that it is important to consider before carrying out the treatment, it is important to proceed with caution with patients who have suffered a heart attack, suffer from angina, patients undergoing anticoagulant treatments, patients with renal insufficiency , arthritis, rheumatism, anemia, lupus, respiratory failure, osteoporosis and with patients suffering from psychiatric diseases.

 

As in any treatment, there are risk factors that can hinder the success of dental implants. For example, survivors of cancer need to be very careful if they got radiation therapy in the area of the head or mouth as the success rate will be somewhat lower, the same happens with diabetic patients. In patients with heart disease, an adequate and detailed clinical history should be made before starting treatment. And finally, as we all know, smoking is harmful in all aspects, so it is expected that smoking with dental implants, especially during the process of osseointegration, will increase the risk of failure of dental implant treatment.

Inlay onlay overlay dental crown cancun cosmetic dentistry

 

While one of our most popular treatments are Zirconia Crowns, you might need an inlay, onlay or overlay instead. Crowns are not the same as inlays, overlays or onlays. Crowns envelop the entirety of the tooth, while the later usually deal with a small section. Perhaps you got a small cavity and want to restore that part of the tooth. Is it possible? Well, in all cases, the dentist will have to take a good look at you, take digital x-rays to check the integrity of your teeth and then decide what’s the best course of action. In many cases, your teeth might be in need of full restoration with crowns but it can also need just a partial restoration of its structure. The names are indicative of the form and space they will cover. They are made of different materials, usually porcelain or metal, but can also be made with a special composite filling that hardens. They can also be used to replace old or damaged metal fillings. In a way, they are more similar to veneers than to crowns, but fulfill almost the same function.

• Inlay type restorations are indicated for premolars and molars with medium structure loss.
• Onlay restorations are usually indicated for premolars and molars with structural loss greater than a third of the surface area.
• Overlays are a little more extensive than onlays, being almost like a crown but not quite there.

 

In either case, if you want a porcelain inlay/onlay you would have to get impressions to redo the missing form of the tooth and make sure it fits correctly. The complete procedure is carried out over two appointments within the same week so it fits neatly on your dental vacation schedule. Perhaps the affected area could also get a resin filling instead of porcelain. Your dentists will suggest you the best course of action and any other alternative treatment you might need.
