please - where is the best place for dental work in Baja?
We were thinking to go to La Paz and get it done (implants and other extensive work) but am having such a time contacting anyone (dentists) there that
I am just thinking to get it done closer to the border and probably more convenient to return to for my friend anyway, who will not be going further
south probably (though I will)....anyone have referrals for people in Algadones near ughhhh Yuma or San Felipe or Ensenada even and last (and least)
TJ...just do not like spending time there,
I know there are lots of answers to some of these questions somewhere in the archives...if there is a way to access them, that will work also
I will begin the search now...
thanks!

Tijuana dentist
I have been going to Washington Dental for years now. Many of my friends and relatives also go there.
Very nice work, very clean, very informative and helpful.
They speak perfect English.
Park at the border, take a cab once you have crossed and they will reimburse you for both and then they also pay for the cab ride back.
All prices are set and they have a menu, simple easy quick.

My choice is dentista Lizarraga in Ensenada. Absolutely superb techniques. According to his staff the good doctor is a real hunk so his staff could
rate darn near as Playboy Bunnies (no this isn't a joke).
His office is almost but not quite across the street (Calle Delante) from Haliotis restaurant. On the same side as the office is one of my favorite
resaurants SOFIA Y ALMA. Look for the "BIG SMILING TOOTH: sign. Get a short taxi ride from your hotel to Haliotis. Every taxista knows the way.

The absolute best is Dr. Samuel Velazquez in Tijuana

And without a doubt, it's the easiest to get to from the border.
Here is a map and even a video with driving instructions
