What Our Clients Say About Dr. Alvarez ?

Since my last review I have returned multiple times for my own follow up dental work – but also brought both my daughters to have all wisdom teeth removed. Again, the care was outstanding – and in one daughter’s case, her work insurance covered all costs. For the other who does not have dental insurance she paid less than a quarter the best cost quoted in LA – so well worth the trip. Finally, I want to give a special mention to Dr. Eric Romo – endodontist. I was referred to him in case I needed a root canal but he cleared me and I did inlays instead. Both he and Dr Polanco are a credit to this clinic. Thank you!

Still love my dentist! I wanted to give a shout out to Bianca Gutierrez. Any questions that I have ever asked, Bianca has taken the time to explain to me in detail and with great patience and I always know ahead what charges I’ll be looking at.

Bianca is a perfect example of the quality of the all the staff at Dental Alvarez.

If you need a dentist in Tijuana and go to Dental Alvarez, you will never have the need to look for another dentist again!

I highly recommend this clinic. The service here is swift and professional. Dr. Edgar Bravo was very thorough. He explained everything very clearly in English as I don’t speak Spanish. I came out of the office knowing I had highest quality care. All the staff were friendly and sincere.

Just great great great service if you have the opportunity to cross the border is just 10 minutes away from San Isidro…. They will take your teeth 100 %

We were recommended to this dentist by god friend that have been going here for years. After our American dentist told us that my husband and I would need over $12,000 of dental work, we looked into coming down from Northern California to Tijuana. The initial communication between Bianca at Dental Alvarez was fantastic and thorough. They gave an idea of what it would cost for the procedures the American dentist said we needed. We were very impressed with the office and the staff. We each got our own Dr that has stayed with us to complete each procedure needed. My husband had a couple teeth they needed puking and then implants, 4 crowns and more. I was told by the dentist in California that I needed a root canal and crown on my back molar that had cracked. Dr. Oracio said I only needed an inlay, which was $300. No root canal needed. The office has state of the art imaging and they have really taken good care of us. We felt heard by them and my doctor was super caring and gentle. I never felt any pain and he was very sensitive to notice and ask how I was doing at all times. Both of us really like our doctors.

As far as coming down to Tijuana, the office is in a very safe area. We park on the American side and walk across. Since we live 8 hours away, we have found that staying at the Grand Hotel Tijuana works great, and it’s a nice place. You can get great prices on booking.com for the hotel. The dentist office will pick you up at the border or the hotel and we just have the driver, Augustine, a tip. We will be back again to finish more dental work needed and we are very happy to have found Dental Alvarez.

I came here because of the excellent reviews on Yelp. I was visiting San Diego and decided why not? I crossed and made my way across to Dental Alvarez. The office is very clean and the staff I encountered was very friendly and professional. On my first visit I had x rays and a deep cleaning by Dr. Ledesma. I was very happy with the amount of time and the cleaning that Dr. Ledesma took with me. He explained what I needed to do to keep my teeth at optimal health. Dr. Ledesma is friendly, professional and very good at his job. I also want to thank Sandra at the front desk for always being amazing.

I have seen three dentists at Dental Alvarez over a period of several months early in 2021 for extensive work including root canals, implants, fillings and crowns. I am 68 years old and I can honestly say they are the best dentists I have ever seen during my lifetime. It is one of the rare occasions in life where superior quality comes with lower cost! They are much better dentists than any I have seen in my hometown.

They are a group of young, passionate, highly skilled dentists that work as a team – unlike the typical solo dentists I have experienced in the U.S. And their staff is extremely supportive, helping set up visits and very responsive to follow up questions. And their English is excellent. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking excellent affordable dental care! I am looking forward to returning to complete the work

Love Dr. Alvarez! His staff is great, everyone speaks English which helps a lot. Easy to find, close to the border. I recommend them definitely!

I wish I could give Dr. Alvarez 10 stars! I love this dentist! I’m having complete implants done on the upper and lower. The price was about 1/3 of what they wanted in the US. And more importantly Dr. Alvarez’s office makes you feel like family. They don’t have all the bells and whistles as some of the high priced places in the US but I found those things aren’t necessary. I will use and or refer this dentist to anyone I know. So happy to have found them .

I have been coming here for over a year. They are really helpful to get you the best care and the best coverage. They are a good team and work well together. The staff call you and leave detailed messages to remind you of your appointments. Dr. Polanco is cheerful and pleasant to work with. He is honest and communicates well about your dental needs. I recommend you to come here 🙂

A couple of weeks ago I went with my mom to Alvarez dental to get her two root canals and crowns taken care of. She flew from Sacramento to LA where we drove to San Diego, parked in long term parking and crossed the border by foot. It was our first time doing this. It was a whole journey to get to the dentist but it was all worth it. She had made an appointment the day prior to going there and Bianca (The Patient Coordinator) was helpful in giving her all the information she needed before embarking on the trip.

The prices for dental work in the US are absurdly high and so we found a great option in Dental Alvarez, not just because of their more reasonable pricing but they have a lab where they can make crowns in house. Although the prices are low, the quality of work that was performed was top notch. The way they treated my mother was wonderful especially since she came from so far away and was obviously nervous about what to expect. Doctor Sanchez and Doctor Estrada made her experience a pleasant one.

Although root canals are not fun, she was very happy and at ease under their care. They even assisted us with our hotel accommodation and getting us an Uber to take us back to the border. Their staff was very nice and mindful of keeping everyone safe while we are still in pandemic mode. Their three story building has everything you would ever need for all your dental needs. They have state of the art equipment and specialists on staff that do it all. I also met my namesake Mr. Alvarez and he seems like a very nice person. The office was very clean and had a good peaceful environment in the waiting area. The two root canals were performed the same day on my mom and the following day they put the two crowns on. During a little less than 48 hours in Tijuana in the care of Dental Alvarez, we can say that we now have a great dentist to come back to and recommend for anyone that has any need for quality and reasonably priced dental work.

We had an amazing experience at Dental Alvarez, Dr Cardenas was amazing with my 9 year old who needed a root canal. She was super nervous and crying because we had a bad experience at the super dentist. He won her trust in a couple of minutes. Explained every single step to her and was super patient. I would totally recommend this office for treatment. Staff is super friendly and welcoming.

I received an estimate from a dentist in Los Angeles for gum graft surgery. $7,000!!! With dental insurance! I’m a teacher. I absolutely was in no way financially able to cover that cost. A friend who grew up in Mexico City recommended Dental Alvarez. I went in for an evaluation and possible same day surgery. We decided to go ahead with the procedure and it could not have been more painless. I was terrified but the staff and doctors were incredibly kind and comforting. I had such a wonderful experience that I will continue to seek out any advanced dental procedures with Alvarez. They are the best! Shout out to Dr. Ramon! And Bianca!

I was having bad tooth pain & i was referred by a family member to this office and everything was great. Dr. Ricardo Alvarez Orozco and his staff were friendly and did the best they could to make sure I was out of pain and comfortable. Front desk was friendly and helpful as well, office was nice and clean, overall great service and will refer to family and friends.

I was referred by family member and decided to make the drive. The staff is very friendly and always helpful. Dr. Alejandro Sánchez explains what needs to be done & does great work. Think I found new dentist for my needs.

A week ago I took my 95-year-old mom to perform dental extractions, I am very grateful to the attention of Dr. Polanco, he was very kind to me and my mom, not to mention the kindness and professionalism with which I was treated

Good price and clean office I recommend all my family and friend to Dr. Polanco

Thank you Mrs. Ana for taking the time to share your experience and your opinion about us, we are very dedicated on what we do and I´m very glad you were happy and satisfy with the results.

I came because Yelp reviews, and location. I had toothache, and came in on a Saturday. All staff was very friendly, and very professional. Dr Ramón (I forgot his last name) make this visit very comfortable, even the anestesia, and all painful treatment. He was very attentive, and his service was exceptional! He work with my teeth fast, and very professional.

Inside is very clean, and all staff made me feel comfortable.
