dentists in Loreto?


maybe since there is a larger population and easier access via plane there are some well regarded dentists available there?
I stay in Mulege so this would be ideal really....any suggestions?
much appreciated!

yes, dentists in Loreto, but from your other posts it sounds like you are looking for major work, implants, etc. our dentists are generalists. one has an oral surgeon come up from La Paz every month or two to do implants, etc, but you might as well go to La Paz as play Russian roulette as to if/when he will appear.
cleanings, fillings, are local. other stuff is sent out....crowns need to be made elsewhere for example, and one of my friends is still working on fine tuning/filing his own dentures...he tried two dentists in town and neither got it right.
I checked with my dentist here awhile ago re implants (he's the one who has someone come in) he required a panoramic X-ray, which cannot be done in Loreto, nearest place is Constitucion, a get acquainted visit with said visiting doctor, then post implant, then wait, etc etc etc. as I recall the total price was to had been in the 1000US range, but that's been awhile




reality\'s never been of much use out here...

Thanks for this information...with limited time and money to spend hanging out in La Paz and trying to find someone that can do the work, etc .... I guess it is time to figure out Plan B....
