Crossing
Gateway International Bridge, opposite Brownsville, Texas
Who travels here

Worth knowing

What each procedure involves, what it costs, and how many trips it takes. Prices are the part worth reading twice: a quote that beats every other quote in town is usually quoting a different procedure.

Questions patients actually ask
How do I get to Matamoros?
Matamoros is a land border crossing at Gateway International Bridge, opposite Brownsville, Texas. Tamaulipas carries a US State Department travel advisory. Check the current level before you go, cross on foot in daylight, keep appointments near the bridge, and ask the practice how they handle patients from the Texas side. Most do it every day. Check the CBP border wait times page on the morning you travel, because the wait is the least predictable part of the day.
How do I check a dentist in Matamoros is really licensed?
Ask for the cédula profesional number and the name exactly as it appears on it, then look both up in the Registro Nacional de Profesionistas. That licence is what makes dental practice legal in Mexico at all, and it is public record. Every dentist listed here has their number published with the date it was confirmed, so the check can be repeated rather than taken on trust.
Do I need a passport?
To re-enter the United States, yes: a passport, passport card, or an enhanced driver's licence from a state that issues them. Canadians need a passport. Going into Mexico is the easy part; the document is for the return.
Can the work be finished in one trip?
It depends entirely on the procedure. A crown or a root canal often is. Implants are not: the post has to fuse with bone over months before the final tooth goes on, so that is two trips. Anyone offering full implant treatment inside a week is describing something other than a standard implant.
