Traveling to Tijuana, Mexico to get your Dental Work is Safe, Easy and Affordable



  If you have done any checking around or looked on the Internet, you already know that you can save a lot of money by getting your Dental Implants done in Tijuana, Mexico.  However, you may be unsure about how to safely and affordably get across the border.. This is especially true if you have never crossed the border before, don’t speak any Spanish or have apprehensions about Mexico and Tijuana 

There are many false conceptions and irrational fears about crossing the border and going into Tijuana. Yes, there is some violence, like in any major city in the USA, but it is targeted at those that are actively in unlawful activities and those in law enforcement who are fighting the criminals. If you are not involved in illicit activities, there is nothing to worry about. Life continues “business as usual” for most people, residents and visitors as well. Whenever you travel to any city in the world, you should know which areas are safe and others not recommended to be visited. Any local hotel or business should be able to guide you. 

Over the past several years, there has not been a single incidence of a medical tourist coming across the border being injured or attacked!  None of the thousands of patients that visit us every year has reported any problems or incidents. That is good news. 

There are several safe methods to cross the border to visit our office as well as any of the other medical facilities located in the neighborhood. 

 

US Hotel and Shuttle 

Staying in a nice Hotel on the US side of the border and crossing over in a shuttle is especially suited for those who do not live near the border.  Many of our dental patients stay at the Best Western Americana Inn  located nearby in San Ysidro, CA. They offer a shuttle service that takes you directly from the hotel to the clinic of your choice and then, after your work is done, picks you up and takes you back across the border. This door to door service is very convenient and safe, especially for those who have concerns and/or do not speak any Spanish. Their room rates are about $79 a night and includes the shuttle back and forth. Call them at 1-800-553-3933 or 619-428-5521.
