Dental Brush is a Dental Departures-verified, premium clinic in Tijuana, Baja California with a long track record of welcoming cross-border patients. Travelers choose this team for its friendly bilingual care and breadth of specialties, including oral surgery, full-mouth rehabilitation with implants and fixed prosthetics, orthodontics, endodontics, also called root canals, and family/general dentistry.
Expect modern diagnostics like digital X-rays, intraoral cameras, CEREC® crowns, and laser technology. Treatment plans follow common U.S. standards, such as ADA preventive protocols, and are explained in plain English and Spanish so you know what’s happening at every step.
Dental Brush is in Tijuana, Mexico—a short rideshare or taxi from the San Ysidro Port of Entry via I-5 or I-805. Many visitors park on the U.S. side, walk or drive across, and use Uber or taxis locally. You can also fly into SAN, San Diego International Airport, or TIJ, Tijuana International Airport, and arrange a short transfer.
The team works in English and Spanish. For payments, plan for cash and major cards; policies and any card surcharges can vary by clinic, so confirm details with your Dental Departures advisor when you book.
Request the clinic’s written warranty for lab-made work, such as crowns, bridges, and dentures, as well as workmanship before treatment. Keep receipts and post-op instructions for any follow-up coordination.
