I would highly recommend Dr.Francisco Tapia DDS who I have been going to for about 5 yrs.I have had dental implants,fillings,cleaning,etc.His phone number is (520)270-7590.He is in a building with other dentists (multi-story).It is a short walk (few blocks) from the border.They can give you directions.He speaks English,and everyone in the office is very professional.
If you just want a check up and cleaning for your teeth you might look into a college or tech school that has a dental hygiene program. I can't speak for your current location but here it costs $10 to have a student do a cleaning and xrays. They are hovered over by an actual practicing dentist. One thing, it does take a long time to have a student clean your teeth, they are scared and all don't you know. Anyway, if they find you need more work they will tell you, then you can go to a dentist for other work. Just a thought. Nancy
This guy got recommended on the blog post I did on dentistry in Mexico: Dr. Espinoza of Dental Periogroup http://dentalperiogroup.com/
Don't know any others unfortunately. I am ALSO looking for a doctor in Mexico. Thinking about switching our entire primary care south of the border. Nina
By the way are you ducks still in Tuscon? If so we're coming your way this week-end and staying for ~9 days. Would love to come meet you if you're up for it. Nina

Can't help you with a recommendation but I did enjoy the graphics!!

Having worked in medical, I hate to say who not to use is often the most important info. I'd use a MD for eye though, it does make a difference. ~Mary

OMG!! Are stepping foot on Mexican soil? Is this the first stop to a 15 hour drive from Nogales to Mazatlan? YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nina: YOU BET! You have our email, right? whotookmybucket at gmail dot com.
I hadn't considered an MD in Mexico. Duh. I wonder why that slipped past me. Will you concentrate in one city or another?
Lol, Contessa! Yep, we're stepping towards Mazatlan...a little. We're following up our Endless Algodones Tour with Less Nogales.
Nancy, that's a good idea - thanks for that. I just want a cleaning, and Annie may or may not have something more done.
Mary, do you mean an opthamologist, or an optometrist? I used to have those.
Good, Karin - that's two for that practice. Thank you.
Margie, thank you for that. So, you have been happy with a wide range of his services.
Ha, thanks Donna!
AWESOME!! E-mail coming your way...
