Is It Worth Traveling to Mexico for Dental Treatment?

Price Comparison (Miami vs. Cancun)

Let’s Break Down the Numbers:

Same treatment type. Clear savings.

Average Cost In Miami

  •  Comprehensive implant treatment (per jaw): ≈ $22,000
  • Required imaging (Panoramic + CBCT): ≈ $700


Estimated Total: ≈ $22,700

Shtern Dental Clinic Cancun

  •  Comprehensive implant treatment (per jaw) ≈ $10,300
  • 1 – week hotel stay: ≈ $650
  • Round-trip flight (average): ≈ $300


Estimated Total Including Travel & Stay: ≈ $11,250

💰 Estimated Savings:  $11,450

Even after including airfare and accommodation, patients can still save significantly compared to average treatment costs in Miami.

How Much Can You Save on Dental Treatments in Cancun?

The savings come from lower operating costs in Mexico — not from compromising quality

Zirconia crowns$520 USD$1,000–$2,500 USD$1,000–$2,500 USD$1,980 USD

When Does It Make Financial Sense?

For minor procedures like a single filling or simple crown, staying local may be more convenient.

However, when it comes to extensive treatments such as:

Full-mouth rehabilitation

All-on-4 / All-on-6

Multiple implants

Full smile makeovers

Multiple crowns or bridges

The cost difference becomes significant!

High-Quality Care, Not Just Lower Prices

For many patients from the U.S. and Canada, traveling for treatment is not just affordable — it’s a smart financial decision.

Had a really good experience at Dr. Mark Shtern’s clinic The staff was friendly, the appointment started right on time, and the office was clean and well kept Dr. Shtern took the time to explain what needed to be done without pushing unnecessary treatments, and the procedure itself was quick and painless. Definitely a solid clinic if you're looking for a reliable, straightforward dentist.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My wife and I would like to express our heartfelt thanks to the entire team for taking such wonderful care of us! We came to Cancun and decided to get our dental work done here, and we are so glad we made that choice. From our very first visit, we felt welcomed and comfortable. Everyone was so kind, patient, and attentive. They took the time to explain everything, answer all our questions, and make sure we felt at ease throughout the process. We are very happy with the quality of the dental work and the results. What really stood out to us was not only the professionalism of the doctors but also the genuine kindness and care we received from everyone at the clinic. Thank you for your hard work, your skilled hands, and, most importantly, your warm and personal approach. It means a lot to find such wonderful people when you’re far away from home.
