Dental tourism for international patients
Save 50-70% vs. the United States: a 2-4 hour flight, no visa, the same time zone and no jet lag. We treat you in Roma Norte and, between appointments, you take on Mexico City.
Dental tourism means traveling to another country for high-quality dental treatment at a fraction of the price you would pay at home, and using the trip to discover a new destination. Mexico is today the number one destination for patients from the United States.
It is not about cheap clinics: it is about the same materials, the same protocols and prices 50% to 70% lower, because the cost of living and doing business in Mexico is different. And in the case of Mexico City, the destination itself is one of the great cultural capitals of the continent.

Turkey has good prices and a good reputation. But if you live in the Americas, Mexico City's logistics are in another league.
Houston is 2h30 away and Los Angeles 3h45. Istanbul is more than 12 hours of flying, usually with a layover.
Mexico shares the same time zone as the U.S.: you arrive, get treated and keep your normal rhythm. Turkey is 8-10 hours off.
U.S. and Canadian citizens enter Mexico for up to 180 days without a visa. For Turkey, most travelers need an e-visa.
Office, hotel, museums and restaurants within a 25-minute radius. With Turkey packages you depend on the tour's transport.
Bilingual medical team and clinical documentation in English. No middlemen, no translators and no misunderstandings about your treatment.
Mexico City is one of the world's great food destinations: from street tacos to fine dining, all minutes from the office.
In Turkey they fix your teeth and you stay in the hotel. In Mexico City they fix your teeth and you take on the city.
Same materials, same protocols and the same results. The only real difference is the price.

Yes. More than 1.2 million Americans travel to Mexico every year for dental treatment. At Dentalisima we use FDA-approved materials, COFEPRIS sterilization protocols, an equipped surgical room and we have 421 verified reviews with 4.9 stars.
Proximity and logistics: 2-4 hours of flying instead of 12, the same time zone (no jet lag), no visa for U.S. and Canadian citizens, and office, hotel and attractions within a 25-minute radius. In Turkey you depend on the package's transport and you talk through a translator.
Between 50% and 70%. A single implant costs $3,000-$5,000 USD in the U.S. and from $900 USD at Dentalisima. An All-on-4 goes from $30,000-$45,000 to from $8,900 USD. Even adding flights and hotel, the savings remain very high.
For a cleaning or whitening, one day is enough. For implants, the typical plan is 2-3 days of surgery and a second trip of 2-3 days, between 3 and 6 months later, for the definitive crowns.
No. U.S. and Canadian citizens can enter Mexico for up to 180 days without a visa. You only need a valid passport. For Turkey, most travelers need an e-visa.
