Would you trust this shop?

Snapped during a brief visit to Mexico. I actually had an abscessed tooth at the time, but didn't go in...

Free Estimates :eyebrow: makes it sound like a building or some sort of repair company.

I wonder if the dental tools inside are as old as Felix himself. Still with those small pupils it looks like he's been gassed up nicely. :lol:

Right with ya, Starlac- I'm not sure I'm willing to take my chances with that place. :lol:

They should advertise, " It may be a jacked up drawing but we'll fix those jacked up teeth !"

It was on this trip that I eventually had two root canals done - in one session - in Foix, which is a small town in SE France. On the plus side it cost $40. On the down side, the surgery looked like a bombed out building in Kosovo, and their method of deciding which teeth were abscessed was to drill into them without anaesthetic, and ask me which one took the longest to stop hurting. And when I got back to Australia my dentist told me that they'd buggered one of them up and I had to have it done all over.

Sometime later in this trip a Californian dentist (Californian dentists all talk like Mr Garrison from South Park, BTW) told me that there were only three countries in the world which you should have dental work done in: the USA, Australia and Canada.

I'm dubious about this, since I had a filling the size of Lake Ontario done in San Diego, and after it was finished I discovered it was mercury-amalgam. Nobody in Australia that I've visited still does mercury fillings.

And since then half of it broke off.
