Dental implants in Cancún

A titanium post placed in the jaw to carry a single replacement tooth, with a crown fitted on top once the post has integrated.

Trips needed

Usually 2 trips, months apart

Getting there

Direct flights from most large US and Canadian airports

Follow-up

A check at 7 to 10 days after placement, then again when the crown is fitted. Plan for the second trip three to six months later.

What it involves

The dentist places a titanium post into the jawbone, lets it integrate with the bone over several months, then fits an abutment and a crown. Most patients need two trips: one for placement, one for the crown.

Before you travel

A CT scan or panoramic X-ray to check bone volume. If there is not enough bone, a graft or sinus lift comes first and adds months to the timeline.
