Dental Implants
One of the rising dental procedures in the past two decades has been the installation of implants into the areas where teeth were formally located in order to place more permanent dentures and bridges over these open areas. Dental implants range from placing a single implant to fill the gap of a missing tooth to a complete procedure that replaces all of the teeth with implants covered by dentures.
A dental implant is essentially an anchor point for your dentures or just a single new tooth. They are small posts where dentures can be attached without the dreaded fear of slipping. Everyone has different dental needs, so in some cases you may need one, two or three implants while in other cases you might need the full range of implants in order to fully secure your dentures.
For Americans looking to lower their dental costs for implants, the Implant Art Center is providing the means to do so. In fact, many patients are also vacationers who have combined their trip to the Implant Art Center with taking a vacation that has allowed them to enjoy their stay in beautiful Tijuana, Mexico. Considering that in the US, most if not all of that money would be spent on the procedures, no wonder so many people are taking advantage of coming to the Implant Art Center.
Depending on your situation, dental implants may be the perfect solution to your dental needs. The problem of traditional dentures is that they quite often slip out of place. Because a traditional denture uses a temporary bonding agent, they can often give way when biting or chewing food, causing a great deal of embarrassment. Dental implants however are a more permanent solution as the implants themselves hold the dentures or bridges in place. In this manner, they do not slip or fall out like traditional dentures, but they can be removed when need to clean them.
Cost of Dental Implants
One of the main reasons Implant Art Center was created was to offer a lower cost alternative to the US dental clinics that heavily charge for dental implants. For example, the surgical placement of a single dental implant costs on average around $2100 in the US, depending on where you live and the dentist that you select for the procedure.
At Implant Art Center, we charge only $750 for the same dental implant procedure using the same tools, equipment and materials found in the US. Plus, Dr. Vazquez has performed over 2,500 surgical placements of dental implants last year alone. His vast experience combined with the modern facility and medical practices of Implant Art Center means you get top quality service at roughly 1/3rd the cost of what you will find in the US.
Experience
Dr. Vazquez has received formal training for his dental implant procedures in the US. He is not only a DDS or dentist, but an oral surgeon complete with an MD in oral medicine. Many dentists on both sides of the border have little formal training when it comes to implant placement.
Location
One of the main advantages that the Implant Art Center has is our fine location. We are just one block away from the gate exiting Mexican Customs which means that we are a mere stone’s throw on the Mexican side of the border with the US. From San Diego, you can quickly drive across and take advantage of our wonderful services in a modern facility designed to meet your dental needs.
Modern Facility
One of the first things you will notice when coming up to our building is the modern appearance which also reflects what is inside our facility as well. We use modern, advanced equipment in a clean, large facility to help make your visit to the Implant Art Center as comfortable as possible. We want you to know that our low prices, often between 1/3rd and 1/4th what you would normally pay in a US dental clinic, does not come with any sacrifice in quality.
Other Services
At the Implant Art Center, we provide services other than dental implants. In fact, we are a full service dental facility and we pride ourselves in providing top quality service for a fraction of the price you would normally pay in the US.
Exams, Cleanings and Evaluations: We provide excellent cleaning services for your teeth which make us a great stop on your vacation to get you fully checked out and evaluated to insure that you are aware of any potential issues that may come up. Naturally, the choice is yours if such problems are discovered to have them taken care of quickly or if you want to schedule another visit.
Whitening: One of our most popular services, our teeth whitening procedure is quick and effective that will lighten your teeth by several shades and bring you a more youthful and healthy smile.
Fillings: Implant Art Center offers the latest white composite fillings which are tough, durable and almost invisible to the naked eye.
Root Canal Therapy: A root canal is no laughing matter, but at least you will not be crying over the cost of having a professional root canal performed for an average of 1/4th the price of the same procedure in the US.
Extractions: Whether you have a permanent tooth that is too far gone to be saved or your children’s wisdom teeth are finally coming in, you can get professional, high quality extraction services at Implant Art Center. Even if the wisdom teeth need surgical extraction, the cost is a mere fraction of what it would be in the US.
Veneers/Crowns: From porcelain standards to the new E Max Veneers, you can be assured that what Implant Art Center has to offer is of very high quality. This includes the newer Zirconium Ceramic crowns which are becoming quite popular for their color and durability. You can even have your crowns lengthened as well.
Dentures: We offer a full line of traditional dentures for full and partial use. Whether you need a temporary flipper, partial, metal frame or flexible full or partial, we have what you need at Implant Art Center.
Besides our many great services, we also do not charge for our standard oral sedation. Such charges are often standard in the US and this is one way we can help lower your cost and still provide you with high quality services.
Cosmetic Dentistry
One of the most popular and promising means of looking your best is having a smile that brightens the room. A brighter, more beautiful smile takes years off your looks and brings in a fresh, youthful appearance. At Impact Art Center we offer a complete cosmetic smile makeover that begins with fully evaluating your needs and how we can improve your smile. From simple whitening to offering crowns and veneers, we are here to help you look your best.
For those on a budget, covering your natural teeth with high quality porcelain crowns will help bring out the best smile possible while keeping your costs quite low. Although not quite as high quality in both durability and in appearance as the famed Zirconium or Lava crowns, porcelain crowns are still highly regarded and will help brighten your smile.
Another cost saving crown in the E max, which is a harder version of the standard porcelain crowns that are very chip resistant. E max crowns make for great looking teeth especially if you use them over the front teeth and they have no metal or ceramic base so they are quite translucent as well. The E max offers you a great smile at a lower cost than some of the more expensive materials that are used in crowns.
The Implant Art Center is here for you.

Not only do we provide low prices for our services, we also use the best materials available, have extensive experience with many dental procedures especially implants and can even organize your transportation and hotel accommodations in the city so that you will fully enjoy your stay.

Here are the dental treatments that we specialize in:
Dental implants in Mexico: Implant treatments are becoming very popular in Tijuana. This modern technology has been perfected by Dr. Vazquez, as he has had a lot more formal education in this specialization than the average dentist in Tijuana that is placing implants. Dr. Vazquez also has a lot of experience, surgically placing over 2,500 implants per year. American patients can take advantage of the close proximity our clinic to the border as well as our low treatment prices for dental implants in Tijuana. We can do both individual implants, dentures supported by implants, and fixed bridges over implants. Please contact us for an estimate of what the costs would be for your case.
Full oral rehabilitation: This is basically giving you entire mouth a makeover. This can be done with crowns over natural teeth, full restoration through implants and bridges, or a combination of implants and natural tooth restoration. When you come in for an evaluation, the doctor will advise you as to which plan of treatment would be the best in your case.
Cosmetic Smile Makeover: There is a real art involved, coordinating between the dental clinic, and the dental lab, to achieving the perfect smile. Many patients have come to our Tijuana dentists to get a smile makeover. We take a lot of pride in achieving a great smile for our patients. We offer a variety of materials to make the crowns, and so can have a broader price range to better accommodate the patients budget. we can use the standard PFM porcelain crowns, E.max all porcelain, and Zirconium or Lava crowns. The nicest looking crowns are the Zirconium or Lava crowns. They are high tech crowns, made with use of a cad/cam program, (computer aided design), to operate the milling machine that makes them. For crowns on natural teeth, they not only look nicer, but have the best fit and seal, and will last the longest. While the Zirconium looks the best, they also cost the most, (see our price list). However, for those on a budget, the truth is, the standard porcelain crowns still look good, and are acceptable for a great smile. The E.max crowns or veneers is made from a very hard, chip resistant porcelain. There is no metal or even ceramic base, and so it makes them very translucent. The E.max makes a great looking tooth. For front teeth, the E.max will give you a perfect smile, and they are less expensive than the zirconium, but more expensive than the standard porcelain.
Dentures supported by implants: Although it is normally in the patients best interests to save teeth, it is not always possible. Some people have problems with periodontal disease, or their teeth have deteriorated to the point that extractions are inevitable. The next step is what many people have been dreading for years, having their teeth all pulled out and having to wear dentures. Everyone has memories of their grandpa's dentures jumping up and down when he talked, and we dread the idea that we will be next. However, with the treatments that we can offer here in our clinic, we can give you a much more natural looking smile with dentures. By placing 3 or 4 implants per dental arch, we can give you dentures that are anchored solidly in place. The implants are capped off by a locator, a top with a nipple that inserts into an "O" ring inset into the denture. This way, the denture snaps into place, and stays put. No more flopping around in your mouth when you talk. It is a system that works, and is much more economical than using all implants and fixed bridges. For a person on a budget, dentures supported by implants, gives them a lot more confidence and a better appearance, and is something more affordable.
