Is it safe to get bone graft in Cancún?
That depends on the dentist doing it. Cancún has licensed, well-trained dentists, and it also has people working without a licence; a nice waiting room does not tell them apart. Check the cédula profesional in the federal registry, get the plan and the quote in writing, and ask who treats a complication once you are back home. The dentists listed on this page have their licence number and the date of the check published.
How do I check the dentist is licensed?
Ask for the cédula profesional number and the name as it appears on it, then look it up in the Registro Nacional de Profesionistas. Every dentist listed here has that number published with the date it was confirmed.
