Case Description
due to cost I went to Mexico two months ago I had a lot of dental work done, but now my bridge has broken off from one of the teeth it was anchored to in front ; and my crown came off my back tooth back anchor. So I now have the crown and teeth in my purse. OW! air and cold hurt Nothing on the teeth are broken the back crown is gold on gold and the front are porcelain on gold. Any idea of price range to correct this problem. I had expected bridge to last for quite sometime, Could it be my fault or something I did, that this occurred so soon, sometimes i grind my teeth? flossing with floss designed for bridges?

Are You This Patient?
When selecting a new doctor, consider the following:
Quality of Explanations: Compare dentist replies. Give preference to well-reasoned, detail-oriented, transparent explanations.
Experience & Qualifications: If a dentist has a practice listing, check their practice description,
special training, typical office procedures and before & after case photographs.
Other Patients' Freedback: If a dentist has reviews, read other patients' reviews. The more
reviews they have, the more likely it is that other patients' feeback is accurate.
Treatment Costs: Dental procedure costs vary from practice to practice and depend on a variety of factors.
Because quality of patient care and treatment results vary from practice to practice most dentists will not "price-match" treatment fees of others.

Cost Estimate: $849.00 per tooth
Well although we strive for excellence in the us sometimes patients go outside of the country for less cost efficient dental work. Although some of the dental work may seem great at the time usually the patients end up having to see another dentist to correct the problems which they have when returning to the us. The mexican dentists do not have the longevity of school that dentists in the us have. A bridge is 849.00 per tooth. We accept any ppo dental insurance and we offer care credit in our office which you apply for based on your credit scores. Please give our office a call and we will gladly try to help you out.Cissy @ Arlington Dental 817-557-0095
