Grupo de Especialidades Dentales is located Nuevo Laredo in Tamaulipas, Mexico. We offer affordable general and specialist dental services to local and international patients.
Lying on the banks of the Rio Grande, Nuevo Laredo is a convenient destination in Mexico for your dental work – particularly if you live in Texas – with three international bridges and a rail bridge connecting the city to Laredo in Texas.
We understand going anywhere for dental treatment, let alone to another country, may fill you with apprehension. But don’t worry – we endeavour to help you feel safe and welcome, ensuring you leave us feeling happy with your dental health.
Prior to any treatment, your medical and dental history will be reviewed by one of our dentists, with appropriate x-rays and a thorough examination of your teeth and mouth examination. Once a diagnosis has been established, your dentist will discuss the findings with you and recommended treatment alternatives.
Our services include a comprehensive range of everyday dentistry to maintain your dental health, including fillings and teeth cleaning. We have a range of solutions for decayed or damaged teeth, such as crowns and veneers. If you have lost teeth, or need an extraction, we offer dentures and dental implants. Our specialist services also include orthodontics (braces) and periodontics (gum health).
We accept a range of insurances, so if you’d like your money to go further then we’d be happy to see you at the Grupo de Especialidades Dentales.

October 2021A first class operation. Chosen based on reviews. The office is simple and functional. I want a competent dentists. I do not need 'Gucci' surroundings. The dentists are younger, but they know their craft. From the receptionist to the dentists, everyone was friendly and they took time to answer questions. Being over-charged for a taxi? They will see that does not happen again :). I had a totally painless molar root canal and was prepped for 7 crowns (also totally painless). Returning later this week for the crowns to be fitted and more work: a bridge and veneer preparation. I will report on progress.

November 2018Overall we are very pleased with this clinic: the staff all seem knowledgeable, courteous, skilled, enthusiastic, and proud of the work they do. We are midway through our treatment plans; when we are finished we will update our review. So far, we would certainly encourage anyone needed complex work done to come to this clinic. Here are some of the definite pluses: Dental Departures was helpful throughout in arranging appointments, finding the right specialists, and forwarding our records. Very pleased with their help. Then, the dentists at Grupo de Especialidades Dentales take a team approach to the work. They are all on site at once, and they consult with each other right then and there to determine the best treatment plan. No multiple visits to the periodontist, the endodontist, etc. This team works Mayo Clinic style. They seem to be most prudent and careful in recommending treatment. As mentioned, the staff all seem skilled. I noted some superior techniques to those I have encountered in the U.S. For example, when Luis, the periodontist, applied the lidocaine to my gums prior to the shot, he waited a few critical minutes before proceeding. That gave the lidocaine time to actually work before the shot went in. After that, somehow, the numbing agent they use works very fast. I was not left sitting for 15 minutes waiting to be numb. Other small things: When Luis was working on my gums, he was careful not to pass the instruments over my face when he reached for various angles. This may seem like a small thing, but I recall one periodontist who was waving sharp instruments right over my eyes the whole time. That was more anxiety than I needed! Everything they proposed to do for me and my husband was explained carefully and patiently. We do not speak Spanish, but the staff all speak English to some degree, so we were able to understand the clinical goals well. Javier started the work on my veneers, and Ignacio did my husband's root canal, and then they laid out specifically when we would need to return for the final restorations and further work. In short, we would recommend this process. HOWEVER: Please ensure you understand and agree to the prices of services BEFORE you embark on the work. In my case, I was disconcerted when I realized that the price for my veneers differed from the price quoted before we went there. Let me reinforce that the misunderstanding was my fault. I was presented with an estimate after my initial visit that I was too confused to question and clarify. Although the final price will be higher than I first thought, the explanation was rational (I was getting a master's-level specialist), and the price is still WELL below what this work would cost in the U.S. Just be very sure you understand the exchange rate; what is or is not included in the estimate; and what options there might be with your treatment. On reflection, perhaps the only people who need this caution are those like me who are so charmed and relieved at finding affordable dentistry that they lose all their knowledge of arithmetic. And even with the misunderstanding, we have found our dealings with this clinic to be FAR superior to how our stateside dentist's offices work. (For example, we had to ask them for an itemized estimate at least three times, over a period of weeks, before they gave it to us.) We are looking forward to continuing the work, and hope that it turns out well. Given the fact that my husband's stateside dental work has repeatedly failed, we are willing to take a chance with a practice that seems promising. We hope to be able to report complete success in a few weeks.
