I am sitting at the dental office after getting a filling and an impression for a night guard, so of course it's too soon to say anything about the quality... read more or longevity of the work I got done. However, I've had such a seamless experience getting to ASD and all of the staff and my dentist, Dr Narvaez, have been so kind and accommodating, I just have to write a positive review for them!
I live in San Diego, so getting to the border was an easy 20 minute drive. I chose to cross the border by foot since I know driving around in Tijuana can be a little tricky. Getting to TJ was so easy: parking is $9 during weekdays and the border patrol is a quick 10 minute walk across the bridge. Once you exit the patrol and walk onto the main street, you simply give ASD a call and they order an Uber for you. I had to wait maybe 5 minutes for my driver and the ride was $5. I was seen very quickly and of course all of the costs I was presented with was affordable (Consultation which includes an x-ray and CT scan = $45, Night guard = $150, Filling = $60). I was also suggested a cleaning ($100) and wisdom teeth removal ($270), but as I'm a graduate student who's always looking to save money, I decided to push these procedures off. The total for everything was $255.
Dr Narvaez was soooooo gentle, kind, down to earth, and attentive to details. I am so happy she was assigned to me. She really seems to know what she's doing and also seems to respect teeth--she did not suggest any work I wasn't aware of (minus the wisdom teeth of course) and was very deferential towards all of my needs.
All in all, I couldn't be more satisfied with my experience at ASD. I will be updating my review about how the filling and night guard last, but I have a hunch that all has gone superbly and that I will be a repeat patient.
Thank you, Dr Narvaez and ASD!Anna K.
1/17/2023The process, scheduling, location, the support staff and dentists are amazing! My dentist used plenty of Vaseline during the process (which they never do elsewhere) let me rest my jaw... read more often (that never happens), used numbing gel and applied a varnish for sensitive teeth at no extra charge (I've never been offered sensitivity varnish...like wth???) Dr. Alejandra Ponce was so thorough in her exam and even took photos just to help with a treatment explanation. She did a very extensive cleaning (deep gum scraping and polishing) and all this for $145! My BF is getting two crowns in three days for a third of the cost in California where we live.

12/05/2022If you're American please be aware that this business does not have your best interest in mind all they see us as are dollar signs $$$.
I scheduled an... read more appointment, my scheduled date was 3 weeks out. I was called the day before; but I missed their call, as I was at work. I received no email and no voice mail advising me of a failure to confirm appointment; would result in a additional $30 fee! -and never advised that my appointment would be cancelled!
The following day (appointment day) I called while driving to my appointment into Tijuana to ask the location on my GPS; to my surprise I was told they did not have an appointment scheduled under my name!!. I told them I had even received a call the day before; the operator said, because I had not confirmed my appointment the night before; my appointment was cancelled and if I wanted to re-schedule I would have to pay a cancellation fee!! In addition to the $40 consult fee a total of $70 Although I had NEVER cancelled my appointment!
In addition to the ridiculous fees; on the supposed fake cancellation fee.. that by the way I had never cancelled! Also, there were even more surprises in $$ charges; I was told I would be charged a consult fee, plus a cosmetic evaluation fee, and X-rays!
I am thankful that they cancelled my appointment because I found a great reputable dentist that honors his word and is CERTIFIED!! Please do your due diligence and review all REAL Reviews that have been taken advantage by This business, they do not honor their word or prices!
instantly after my call was cancelled I realized this place is a fraud an American Bate trap!
You will be told one thing and then another by whom you get on the phone, and charged other amounts
Be very aware this is a bate trap for Americans..Amy L.
8/09/2022When I initially spoke with the dentist I was assured that once I had my permanent dentures I would be able to bite and chew normally. Not true! My permanent... read more dentures are too big for my mouth, dig into my gums causing great discomfort, and pop off whenever I bite into anything harder than a banana. Even though they were the priciest I went with them because I believe you get what you pay for but apparently not. I gave them 3 stars because the people are all very nice, professional and competent and the office is clean and modern. They also did a great job on my extractions. If you need extractions and don't mind paying more than the other dentists in the area I would recommend them. If not for this I would have given one star. I would not recommend them for dentures.

I'm a SoCal resident and have made the drive down here when in absolute dire straits.
The staff and personnel here are all top notch and highly qualified in their... read more respective fields. Their customer service is extremely helpful and they make you feel completely welcomed and comfortable. They take insurance and even no insurance/out of pocket and their services are not as financially brutal as they are in the states. Unfortunately, I am uninsured and finding adequate coverage and dentist offices to do a great job at an affordable rate is like pulling teeth in and of itself.
All the staff here are the utmost professionals, most if not all are educated, trained, and certified all in the USA. You're in absolute great hands here. As long as you have a passport, you should have no problems with whatever services you need done.Mike P.
1/11/2022I had Major work done here and let me tell you these people are GREAT!!! Special thanks to Maria Alexandra!( I hope I spelled it correctly) she was very patient... read more and knowledgeable! Even though I'm beyond scared of dentist, I was completely comfortable with them. Highly recommend to all my Peeps on both sides of the border.

12/31/2021Just to update my review.. it was Dr. Jose Metzler that did my fixed implant denture and just to reiterate I couldn't be happier!
Matthew A.
11/04/2021First, I want to say that I have read some of the negative reviews and that they are nonsense.
I have been going to this office for almost 3 years.... read more I had severe dental issues, including missing teeth and bone loss. I was quoted huge amounts of money in Los Angeles. House refinance amounts of money.
I had a referral to another practice in Tijuana, but I did not have a good feeling about them. Went to Advanced and they took me in immediately, as I was already in Tijuana.
The office was well appointed, the staff was professional, and Dr. Julian was a complete professional.
Their work was as good, if not better than any dentist I have visited in the States. They now even have their own Laboratory to produce crowns in house.
I estimate that my work cost about 30%. This was the difference between doing the work and letting some dental issues continue to deteriorate.
None of my work has failed and I am in the home stretch to finally have a complete smile.
Thanks Advanced Smiles Dentistry.Paul O.

I chose Advanced Smiles Dentistry upon referral of a trusted friend and I could not have been happier with my experience here. Dr. José Metzler was not only compassionate and... read more friendly but an extreme perfectionist who would not let me leave until my teeth were absolutely perfect. I had a full-blown upper arch overhaul So after about 3.5 days of work (over two weeks) and 30 hours together in the chair together I was fully convinced that he was the right person for the job. He was a tentative to my every need, noticed my body language & constantly checked in with me to make sure I was OK and if I needed anything. I have never been treated by a dentist so well in my life. I have very sensitive teeth and have always had extreme dental anxiety which was lessened by my Experience here. If you are like me I cannot afford major cosmetic dentistry in the United States, this is your place! The staff is extremely knowledgeable, polite and helpful. The facility was extremely clean, sanitized and worked like a well oiled machine. Something I have yet to experience in the United States, and I have been going to the dentist for over 30 years. I hope to come back and get my bottom teeth on soon in the near future! Thank you Dr. Metzler and everyone else at the facility who made my journey an incredible one. ¡Much as gracias! To the entire Advanced smile team! - And you'll have to excuse my slightly Elvis lip photo I was still a bit numb hee hee.

10/05/2021This place is trash, save your time, save your money. It's not even worth the way cheaper Service then in the US. If you are coming across the border don't... read more bother. They act professional but they aren't whatsoever.
They lied to my face. Claiming they said something which they did not say. Definitely will never be back here or tell any of my friends to come here.Alan A.
9/28/2021Best dentist I've ever been to!!! Hadn't been to a dentist in several years and was quoted $1,200 for a deep cleaning (dental code D4341) by one dentist and $900... read more by another in the Washington D.C. area. Was in the San Diego area on vacation so decided to check out Advanced Smiles given the awesome reviews they get here. Couldn't have been more pleased! First of all, was quoted a grand total of $200 for the cleaning - less than 25% of the lowest price I was quoted in the States. The price included free FMX full-mouth dental x-rays (D0210) and some other photographic images (D0350).
All the dental staff was extremely friendly. For some reason, my internet connection wasn't working on my cell phone so I couldn't connect to Uber. No problem - after I called the dental office to explain the situation, they contacted Uber for me and had them come to my location to pick me up and drop me off at the dentist. (Paid the Uber driver in cash - cash is a much more common payment method for Uber in Mexico.) Uber ride from my hotel on Revolucion was only around $2 each way - Uber rides from the border are less than $5 I think. You can also take a taxi from the border for $10-$15 which isn't too bad but Uber is always going to be much much cheaper than a taxi anywhere you go in Tijuana.
The actual deep cleaning was smooth and painless. Most places in the U.S. do deep cleanings over the course of two dental visits; here the entire cleaning is performed in just one visit. My dentist was a younger lady who was very friendly, knowledgeable, and explained everything involved with the process clearly. The entire cleaning took a couple of hours, but again was painless and much smoother than I expected. They also accept American credit cards which was nice. Also want to mention that all of the staff - from the dentists to the hygienists to the front desk staff - spoke clear, understandable English.
I 100% will come back here for any dental procedures I may need in the future not covered by my current insurance in the U.S.Jose A.
8/07/2021Important alert: Only use this clinic if you already have a treatment plan, you know what you need, and you don't mind the high prices, because this clinic appears to... read more operate like a factory with focus on profits. The dentist who treated me extracted two teeth unnecessarily, and recommended another unnecessary extraction, most likely in order to increase profits (?). When showing the treatment plan from this clinic to other dentists, I found out other unnecessary costly items in it. Be aware: The dentist who treated me in this clinic appears to have an "itchy extraction finger."

It has been 2.5 years since my Significant Other and I went to Advanced Smiles.
I had to get a crown done, and so to save some money, I was... read more looking for a place to go to in TJ, and based on the yelp ratings and reviews I saw, we ended up here. initially, I thought our experience was actually pretty awesome. Pretty much the entire staff was very nice, and it felt clean. Most of the patients there all seemed to be from the States when we were there.
As for the actual experience regarding our teeth, i was told I needed a a few fillings replaced in addition to the crown I needed and my SO was told that she needed a ton of her fillings replaced - she wasn't any feeling any pain or sensitivity at the time, but in trust, we both went forward with our recommended procedures.
My overall experience seemed to be fine, but my SO, not so much. she told me that her dentist kept complaining that her mouth was too small, and they eventually put in some kind of mouth opening device, and she said the doctor was not gentle with her. That was sad to hear, but with the low prices, we chalked it up to just dealing with it. After 3 separate trips from LA, we were done.
Over the last yeah, both our mouths started experiencing growing sensitivity and discomfort and pain, and unfortunately, a few weeks ago, i ended up just going to a local dentist in Los Angeles, and I had to get a crown on one of the teeth they worked on due to excessive decay under one of fillings Advanced Smiles did on me, and the other filling that was done by Advanced Smiles will also need to be replaced soon. Also, today, my SO just found out from the local dentist that every single filling done from Advanced Smiles have to be replaced due to decay underneath all of them.
I'm really surprised and unsure why nearly every single tooth worked on both our mouths have a decay problem - our dentist here in LA suggested it could possibly be due to different regulations or inexperience?
Overall, our discount prices so far looks to turn out to be a much more expensive outcome.
Due to the outcome of our teeth now, i would probably opt for a 1 star rating, but I'll give them 2 stars because their staff, minus my SOs dentist, seemed to be very nice, and for folks who need a cheap option for emergency work, this might still be a viable option for them - i just warn that the work done there might need to get replaced or worked on much sooner than you hope.Yankee R.
5/24/2021Had a root canal along with veneers done a few months ago. I went here due to great reviews and affordable cost. Unfortunately, after a few months of bad cold... read more sensitivity, I developed extreme pain and I had to have another emergency root canal at a US dentist due to a serious infection that had developed. Ended up spending more in the long run.

4/12/2021These people are the best from the state of the art equipment to the lovely people at the front desk you won't find a better place to have your dental... read more work done. No sitting around waiting for hours. Xrays ct scans everything done right there Julian is one of the best dentists I have ever had (and I hate going to the dentist) You will be glad you went here trust me
Jim F.
4/10/2021I've been coming here since 2019 and I've had nothing but great experiences. I've had root canals, crowns put on, and more cavities filled than I'd like to admit. Everyone... read more from the dentists, surgeons, assistants, and front desk staff has been incredibly professional and helpful.
They take their time to explain anything you might need to have done and every step along the way. They never tried to get me to do any dental work besides what was strictly necessary (or informed me of the options). There were times where they thought I might need a procedure done, and I was prepared to do it, but upon further investigation it turns out I did not need the procedure. The specialist showed up on sight to do it but, but happily informed me it wasn't needed. This saved me a lot of money and mouth soreness.
I've been recommending Advanced Smiles Dentistry to friends and family and everyone has had a great experience. I don't speak any Spanish and it's very helpful for me that every employee I've talked to who works in the office speaks great English.
Cons:
The only con is about dental work in general. Sometimes procedures take multiple trips to complete. It is a 5 hour drive one way for me and coming here is still my number one choice (even for routine check ups).
They offer a 10% cash discount but you have to mention it specifically when getting charged out.Tyler A.

I had an amazing experience at advanced smiles. The staff were all friendly and informative from my very first call to inquire. I was so grateful to have a few... read more friends who recommended this place. Crossing the border to Tijuana was easy and the office was a 15 minute uber ride from the border. Crossing the border was easy and quick. Arriving at the dental office I sanitized my shoes and had my temperature taken. All of the staff were wearing masks and the office didn't have too many people.
There 3d x- ray imaging is the newest technology I've ever seen at a dentist. They took my x- rays and pulled them up on a big screen to show my and talk treatment plan. I appreciate how straightforward the process was. No hidden costs, and I saved over$1k on the work I had done.
This is a dental office to trust.Gravity W.
3/05/2021My experience wasn't very good. I wanted it to be good. They preformed 3 root canals at the same day. That part was done very well. Came back a few... read more weeks later. My crowns didn't fit well. 2 weeks later 1 crown crumbled. The second one was too big and crumbled as well. Now can see the metal fitting. He shaved down one of teeth to make the crown fit. Guess what, that tooth has a cavity now and I need a root canal. So I need 1 rootcanal and two new crowns. They charged me 2300 dollars. Will not be back unless they fix their mistakes.

2/18/2021Words cannot explain the amazing dentistry they offer. I've been avoiding dentists all my life. I came to Dr. Julian wanting to start fresh with permanent new sparkling whites Finding... read more the right dentistry and finding one that does sleep dentistry required extensive research. After reviewing all the past patient's reviews I decided to make an appointment for my consultation. From the first time meeting the amazing staff and doctors I knew without a doubt that I trusted Dr. Julian and the team of amazing doctors to help me achieve my lifelong goal of having a gorgeous Hollywood smile . Thank you to everyone here for their patience, compassion (for my scared little child inside of me who was terrified of dentists ), phenomenal professionalism and genuine care they've shown me and my wife and continue to show even afterwards. Truly the best dentistry not just in TJ, but all over the WORLD
