Needed: dental reccomendations


J.Miller

Recommended Posts

I am inquiring for a friend who is in need of a "dental makeover".  She is terrified of Dentists but needs some "pain free" work done (fillings/extractions maybe) and would like to discuss some cosmetic procedures; possibly some porcelain veneers and definitely some thorough cleaning to remove stains from coffee, smoking etc..  Please P.M. me with any personal experience you would like to share!  Someone who speaks English is preferable.

I highly recommend Dr. Eloy Barragan at Chapala Dental in Mirasol, 765-5584. He speaks excellent English. He is a dental surgeon, meaning 3 more years of training than a normal dentist, and he can use different medications. A normal dentist cannot freeze me. Dr. Eloy can. He makes sure all treatments are pain free, and when necessary prescribes meds to keep me relaxed, most recently for implanting a tooth. His office is modern and has the latest technology, including digital xrays.

For the past 15 years I I have been going to  Ajijic Dental - Dr. Rosio Vidrio. Plaza San Juan. Upstairs across from Telmex. 

Have had cleanings, fillings, crowns, one extraction and a bridge done by her. Super attention to detail. A great dentist!

Second and third Dr. Eloy Barragan in Mirosol. He might be a few more pesos and his appointment schedule might be farther out due to popularity and skill set and his perfect English, but I would let him do anything dental for me and I can't say that about all other dentists I have visited at Lakeside.

Dr.Haro or his staff have been our Dentists for 20 years, and we have been given excellent care and had few dental issues due to the thoroughness of this office.  If there is a need for a specialist..they refer you to those in the city with excellent recommendations and are highly educated in their specialty.  I agree with those above.. also using purified water in the clearing is something few even think to check on...but that is important and this office does it correctly.  Your teeth and their health can affect the entire body.  I hope your friend will have a great experience and I share the fear of Dentists..but not since I have been with these highly trained Dentists.  They will tell you there is no reason to suffer pain in the dental chair and I never have since going to them.

Dra. Pilar at Dr. Haro's office is my favorite--very gentle, I don't flinch when she is cleaning my teeth, but she does a very thorough job. I think it helps that she has small hands.

I've been seeing Dr. Pilar at Dr. Haro's office and give her a very high rating.  Very professional.  Two thumbs up.

Dr. Harrow office now charges US Dollars and fees are very high.  We use Dr. Candy - she is an excellent dentist and very reasonable.
