Real Reviews done by Real Patients.

I am at a loss of words for how good of a place this is.  I am scared of the... read more dentist for some reason and avoided it for 10 years, I felt perfectly comfortable the whole time.  My root canal was literally painless, and they did 5 fillings when I thought they did 1 it was magical.  My fillings are smooth and fit my jawline just right.  They actually cared to make my fillings fit, I now see how my previous dentists cut corners in the US.  My fillings in the US always made my floss fray, were bumpy and rough feeling.  These are talented dedicated dentists who are proud of their work, a real gem.  No communication issues what so ever, the opposite in fact. read less

My fiancé and I were very hesitant about going to Tijuana for dental procedures but it all worked out beyond... read more expectations. A dentist in San Diego told my fiancé that he would need a root canal on his chipped tooth and Dr. Thelma double checked only to find out that he actually didn't need a root canal. He just needed a fill and a crown. We ended up paying 1/3 of what they wanted to charge us in San Diego.

Dr. Thelma's office is very clean and the receptionist were very nice. The customer service here is amazing, they will direct you and walk you through every single step! I'm very happy we found a great dentist and we will continue to come here for any other dental procedures. read less

I was recommended to come to Advanced Smile Dentistry from a co-worker.  The facility is clean, modern and the staff... read more is friendly.  Additionally, the prices for their procedures were significantly cheaper than my dentist in the US with my dental insurance.  I had a root canal done and the procedure was painless. read less

Had a incredible experience with Advanced Smiles dentistry, I got quoted $7500 in my hometown LA for 3 root canals... read more and 4 crowns! I paid 1/3 here in TJ. Dr. Luis did my procedure and he was very polite and careful every step of the way!! Definitely recommend! read less

I can't say enough good things about this practice. I have been going here since December of 2017. I needed... read more a lot of work done that I had been putting off and couldn't afford in the US. This office is extremely professional and has the latest equipment. Dr Metzler finished 2 of my implants, filled several cavities and fixed a couple of my teeth with crowns. All the work is top notch and as good as I've had in the US. If you are looking for a good Dentist in Tijuana go here. You won't regret it! read less

In my opinion, Dr Thelma Toledo is one of the few dentists on either side of the border who lives... read more up to the title of doctor. While I can't give a general review of all Mexican dentists, I would whole-heartily recommend her to anyone considering going to Mexico to save on exorbitant dental prices in the US.

I just had a consultation today with a dentist on an unrelated issue, who was extremely impressed with the crowns that Dr Thelma did for me. She said they were beautiful. I didn't know how good they were at the time, since I had some jaw pain at the time, but after a few days when my jaw realigned, wow, what a difference. The crowns had been done right and now for the first time in my adult life, I feel like I have a normal bite. My jaw has aligned perfectly and I literally thank her in my mind when I eat something and have comfort chewing now.

Other people are reviewing other dentists in that office, so people may have their favorite dentists in that office that they like, I had a super experience, so I am partial and will only let her work on me going forward. read less

l lost one of the caps on one of my molars by eating into a jolly rancher. Mi jefe found... read more this place because of the excellent reviews! We are so happy. Prices still more affordable than the US. Dr. Julian who I recommend has great "dentist chair" manner. I barely felt a thing when he put the numbing shots. He is kind enough to warn you if there are spots which are less comfortable that he needs to inject. I never felt like I was waiting too long. Dr. Julian always explained what he was about to do and why it was necessary. So Thank you so much!!! I'm back today to get my permanent cap. I'm actually looking forward to it! read less

This was a wonderful experience for me. The staff was wonderful and patient and very knowledgeable. The facilities were spotlessly... read more clean and hygenic.

Highly recommended to anyone coming for dental services. read less

This was my second time here and it was a great experience. I had an $80 teeth cleaning that was... read more done correctly, my doctor back home had some rookie cleaning my teeth about 4 months ago and they did a lousy job. My insurance only covers two cleaning a year so rather than wait & get a lousy job from my dentist here in the states, I chose to take the drive and pay $80 bucks to have it done right. The service was great like the first time and they even used some numbing spray that I have never experienced but it worked great because I didn't feel any discomfort in my mouth. The numbness went away in about 45 mins. I will be back in October for another cleaning or maybe sooner if I decide to get my teeth whitened. If you want a good dentist for a good price, then look no further and try this place. read less

I came here for my root canal and crown to be done. I was quoted over $2k in SD so... read more I searched up the closest ones in TJ that had reliable reviews and was led to this clinic. Dr. Marissa was very helpful and explained the whole procedure to me and gave me reassurance. I will be coming back here in a week for my crown and would recommend this clinic to anyone looking for affordable but precise dental care! read less

My daughter just got a full set of veneers that look amazing. So pleased with the work that was done.... read more She will be going back to get implants in the future. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. read less

EXCELLENT WORK!!!

I have had some serious dentist phobia and refused to go to the dentists in the USA simply... read more because i did not trust them from my past experience.

I decided to try this clinic. The communication and organization was fantastic and i decided to make my way to Tijuana.

I was treated by Dr. Larissa who went above and beyond to make sure that i was feeling comfortable and calm. She knew about my past experiences with dentists  and she did something other than completely fixing my mouth (root canals, crowns, fillings), she ERASED the fear of dentists.

As a person who would refuse to see a dentist, my mind is now changed.

I will only go to Advanced Smiles Dentistry since they have my trust!!!

I don't usually write reviews, but this is the least i can do as a "Thank  You" to Dr. Larissa and the staff!

P.S. The front desk girls are so nice, they ordered a taxi for me as needed and made sure that all of my questions were answered.

Dr. Larissa took all the time needed to make sure that all is to the top of quality. She did not rush and was super attentive.

She is very skilled and is a master of her knowledge and application!

Very thankful!

Thank you!!! read less

Highly recommend the drive to this dental office! Extremely professional and great customer service. They tell you everything straight up... read more and don't ask you to get other dental work that isn't necessary like the ones in LA. The prices here are so reasonable and they give you enough time to return and continue getting things done. read less

The staff was very friendly, their office was clean and the dentist answered all our questions and made sure I... read more was doing okay throughout the treatment. I would definitely recommend coming here. read less

I had 4 wisdom tooth removed and general clean up done yesterday, 2 of the tooth needed surgery.  I couldn't... read more be happier with the whole experience, the staff and the doctors are truly professionals. Also, I was impressed with the state of the art equipment this facility has in place.

I was treated by Dr. Alejandra helping her was Dr. Cinthia and surgery was done by Dr. Luis. Not to forget Andrea at reception who repeatedly offered to call me an uber. I'm very thankful to this team, they really made my experience at this facility a great one. read less

For those patients who are wondering about the situation with the border today, no worries. I just crossed into TJ... read more and everything looks normal.

So don't miss your appointment! read less

Everything from making the appointment, consultation and service was amazing. Everyone spoke amazing English and the facilities were just like... read more you'd find in the states. I'll be coming back anytime I need dental care. Thank you Advanced Smiles! read less

Dental Adventure!

Everything here is straightforward & actually easier to understand than what I’ve experienced in the States. They provide detailed... read more printed info sheets showing whats what, where triage is necessary & what can wait. The staff has excellent communication skills & it’s really quick & easy to get to from LA. Just drive to the border, park at the outlet malls, cross the border & hop in an Über.

I said to the Dr., “ Should I just get an implant rather than replace my crown?” She said,” No, a tooth is an organ. Its a part of your body & if I were you I would keep it as long as I can.” That is a very human thing to say, & I really appreciate it. My old metal fillings are gone & my crown is better than its ever been. They were kind enough to numb me out for the cleaning too because my teeth are unbearably sensitive. read less

I was terrified of coming to the dentist, I avoided coming for almost 10 years but I'm so glad I... read more came to this dentist. They were so welcoming and made me feel very comfortable. I've needed a lot of work done and the ladies here gave me the best work possible. read less

It was an excellent experience! Everyone was very nice and helpful. They really explained everything in detail. We will get... read more all of our dental work done here from now on. I highly recommend them. read less

5 Star service and 5 Star expertise, the entire crew is all about servicing the client. If you are concerned... read more about going to a dentist in a foriegn country, don't be! I received better service, better work, and at a significantly lower price than in the US. Advance Smile's largest percentage of customers are from outside of Mexico. I was able to fly in to San Diego from San Francisco, get picked up from the airport, go to the dentist, fly back to San Francisco, all in one day and still have plenty of money left over. read less

Traveling to Tijuana is safe, people are kind and going to Advanced Smiles Dentistry is a must if your looking... read more for a high end dentistry office with a friendly staff. Is about a $4 cab ride from the border and I would highly recommend this place. I’m a blonde haired surfer from Calabasas which is the suburbs inland from Malibu. I don’t speak Spanish. The friendly staff all speak perfect English and every customer there are people from America. I have been there several times for work done and don’t generally give reviews this extensive but I want people to know that has been a wonderful experience for me. Painless, clean, state of the art equipment. Sitting in the chair you would think your in Beverly Hills or any other high end Dentistry office. read less

First of all, I want to Thank All the Doctors and Staff at Advance Smile dentistry. I had called on... read more Wednesday for an appointment to see a doctor, I was told the next available appointment was for next following week. I had mentioned I had a really bad toothache and wasn’t able to wait for the following week, the receptionist stated she was going to help me. She made it happen, the very next day I drove from LA to TJ to see a doctor. I had the very last appointment of the day.

The reason I mention this is very important because, there closing hours are at 6pm. The staff stayed open after 7:30pm including several doctors assisting me to make sure I wasn’t in pain anymore. They went above and beyond their duties and helped me find a local hotel.

They have a client for life read less

Spend the day in Tijuana getting my front tooth fixed. Root canal, post/core, Zirconia crown. I'm happy as a clam... read more can be. I can finally smile again. A Las Vegas dentist quoted me $2145 w/o insurance. Paid $720 and the work was done as good or better than any other dental work I have ever had done in the US. I was quoted $800 with 10% cash discount and that is what I paid. No up-selling. No extras. No taxes. Spend $80 on gas, $25 on parking on the US side, $5 plus tip on a cab ride, $3 for the best tacos I ever had. The temporary fits so well I can't even feel that I just had it all done. The whole experience was totally painless. The dentist Dr Larissa was super patient, gentle, and took her time to get it right. The entire staff was super nice. I now look forward to getting the rest of my teeth fixed. Well worth the long trip from Las Vegas. read less

UPDATE WAIT TIME: No problem crossing the border, was actually faster than usual at 1030am wed 11/21. Don't... read more be scared of the usual scare tactics by the media. However, if you're driving across, then yes, there looked like a significant wait, but not for walking across (either direction).

As usual, received great care by the dental team and will be returning for another visit. read less

First, I want to thank the staff for being so nice to me and my wife, and for taking such... read more good care of me.

My exam showed I needed a root canal and crown. About an hour after the exam, they were ready to start. The process was practically painless and I was very impressed with the meticulous attention to detail and the advanced technology they used. I was also impressed with the teamwork. At different stages of the process, specialists stepped in to take over. At the end of the day, I had a perfectly fitted temporary crown. Next week I look forward to getting the permanent crown with every confidence that it too will be perfect. read less

Great experience! They were very thorough and made sure everything was pain free. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone!

These fine folks are hands down the best dentist I've ever been to. Very polite, friendly, and kind. They will... read more assist with everything from calling an Uber to getting a milkshake . ? I had four root canals done in a week, not a pleasant experience, but they made it bearable. Thanks again. read less

I went to my appointment today everything is find in TJ nothing is happening with the migrants caravan, you can... read more come don’t loose your appointment. The best dentist in Tijuana get you free consulting today!! read less

Caring staff, beautiful and modern office, incredible prices!

I came here for a root canal plus a bunch of other... read more stuff. There were complications with my RC and they explained everything in great detail and made me feel as comfortable as possible.

The huge negative for me, which has nothing at all to do with this clinic or my experience with them, is the expense, hassle, and time involved with traveling to TJ so often. I live in San Diego (Alpine) so it's about a 45 min drive to the border. I park on the US side, and on Saturdays it's $25 to park plus $7 taxi to the clinic. They call an Uber ($5 with tip) for me to get back to the border. Then there's often a three hour wait to walk back across. It's an all day, exhausting, expensive, bummer. I think I've had 5 visits there so far with several more to go. I'm still saving a ton of money, but the inconvenience really isn't worth it for me. I have a crazy stressful job and spending an entire Saturday in TJ is not how I want to spend my day off.

With that being said, if you live out of state and need a lot of work, you can stay in a hotel in TJ for a few days and get it all done at once. I'm sure it would be a much better experience if done that way. read less

La atención súper linda. Nos recogieron en el borde San Isidro y Tijuana. En cuanto llegamos a la clínica nos... read more atendieron súper bien y no esperamos nada. Todo muy limpio y muy moderno. Mi recomendación es de 100%. read less

Went there because my Delta HMO plan sucks. Broke a molar over the weekend, really painful by Sunday...General... read more was great, but didn't do the root canal he thought was needed, referred me to endodontist who wanted to charge 50% than the plan copay, tried to steer me into a $3500 implant. I decided to have it extracted, first appt with oral surgeon was over a month away, emergency or not. Went to Advanced, great office, dentist said root canal not possible (no place to attached crown). Did extraction and bone graft. In six months, implant.

She also did treatment plan that didn't involve choosing being a new house and dental work. As good or better than any recent dentist I've been to up here. read less

I was here yesterday for my first time, i was worried about the caravan border situation, not sure how safe... read more it was & also was worried about the border not being open, but it was an amazing experience with Dr. Cinthya Narvaez and all the staff, she is so professional and so nice. I had no issues crossing back. Totally recommend it. read less

Excelente Servicio!!! Odio ir al Dentista y aquí no me dolio nadita...

Drove down from the LA area - facility, service, staff, and prices were terrific. I will definitely be going back.

My Husband and myself are from Tulare California.

The Dental Care in the area is so expensive, that we researched Dental... read more Care in Mexico.

The decision was not a mistake.

We decided on Advanced Smiles Dentistry.

The Office Manager Robert was very attentive. He was very well informed.

Starting from questions of our Dental Care to the Sites to see or Fine Dining to the best tacos in town.

The Office Staff is very Professional, but yet you are treated as Family as you walk in.

So I highly recommend Advanced Smiles Dentistry. read less
