US dental clinics send patients to Mexico

Chicago dental clinics partner with dental tourism agency to send patients to Mexico for treatment.

Beyond Borders Dental, a cross border dental tourism agency is piloting a programme with American dental clinics to serve their patients who cannot afford dental treatment in the US. The first clinics to join the partnership are two in Chicago operated by Dental Salon.

Many Americans cross the border for more affordable dental care. US dental clinics often have a backlog of patients needing extensive care who cannot afford treatment.

The pilot establishes a bridge between a dental tourism company and US clinics. Beyond Borders Dental coordinates care with dentists in Mexico, at a savings of up to 80% for the consumer, and American dental clinics can participate by partnering with Beyond Borders Dental.

US clinics now have an affordable option to offer their patients who need extensive treatment and they will be able to get a share of the money that the patient spends in the clinics in Mexico.

The US clinic maintains control of its patients by providing the examination and evaluation services and preparing the treatment plan for Beyond Borders Dental. The patient then receives the treatment recommended by their American dentist at approved clinics in Palomas, Mexico. Beyond Borders Dental arranges lodging, transport, and shuttles the patient to the border, with accompaniment to the Palomas clinic and back after treatment.
