Important — about this score

Please read before drawing conclusions about this clinic.

This score is an automated, opinion-based assessment generated by SmileJet's proprietary AI algorithm from publicly available information — including aggregated third-party reviews, clinic-published materials, and other open-source signals. It is not a statement of verified fact, a professional medical opinion, or an endorsement, and individual experiences may differ.

How the algorithm penalises scores

Our methodology applies score reductions where signals are detected that, in the algorithm's assessment, may indicate: unverifiable or potentially overstated claims about clinical experience or credentials; review patterns the model flags as inconsistent with organic user behaviour; or limited independent corroboration of marketing statements.

These adjustments reflect algorithmic signal-weighting only and do not constitute an allegation of any specific wrongdoing by this clinic or its staff.

I wanted to wait to write a review until after my initial visits, and I truly have never been so pleased with a dental team. I traveled from California to get veneers, and after my consultation they recommended Invisalign for 12–18 months prior to the veneers to ensure I don’t encounter any future issues. They walked me through the entire process, and I can tell they work with integrity. I couldn’t have made a better choice.

We truly understand how important it is to receive high-quality care along with a warm and professional experience.

Very pleased on how they were able to accommodate me. Their initial exam, scan, X-rays, and cleaning are very thorough. After the exam, the Dr. showed me what areas to pay attention to and what areas can be improved with ortho. This was explained throughly and without pressure. Thank you Dr. Nuñez!

Frequently Asked Questions

Which US insurance plans does New Age Dental Clinic in Tijuana accept?
New Age Dental Clinic in Tijuana accepts several major US dental insurance plans, including Aetna, Delta Dental, Cigna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and MetLife. Accepting US insurance at a Mexican clinic is relatively uncommon, which makes New Age Dental a practical option for patients who want to use their existing coverage rather than paying entirely out of pocket. It is worth contacting your insurer in advance to confirm your specific plan's out-of-network benefits and any documentation requirements for international claims, but New Age Dental's team has experience assisting patients through this process.
How do I use my US dental insurance at a clinic in Mexico?
Using US dental insurance at New Age Dental Clinic in Tijuana works similarly to using out-of-network benefits at any US provider. You receive treatment, the clinic provides an itemised receipt with procedure codes, and you submit that documentation to your insurer for reimbursement. Because New Age Dental accepts the major plans listed on their practice profile, they can help generate the correct billing documentation. Coverage levels vary by plan and policy, so check your out-of-network maximums and deductibles before your appointment. The clinic's staff are familiar with the insurance filing expectations of US patients.
What is the border crossing experience like for dental patients travelling to Tijuana?
Crossing the US-Mexico border to reach New Age Dental Clinic in Tijuana is a routine experience for tens of thousands of people each week. The San Ysidro and Otay Mesa crossings are the most commonly used. Travel time from downtown San Diego to the clinic is typically 30 to 60 minutes depending on border wait times. Many patients park on the US side and walk across, which avoids vehicle queues. Others take rideshare services to the border and then a local taxi or rideshare from the Mexican side. The process is straightforward and New Age Dental can provide guidance on which crossing point works best depending on where you are travelling from.
Does New Age Dental Clinic offer same-day dental procedures?
Yes, New Age Dental Clinic in Tijuana offers same-day dental procedures for a range of treatments, which is particularly useful for patients who can only make a single cross-border trip or who are working within a tight schedule. Procedures such as extractions, fillings, cleanings, and some crown placements can often be completed within a single appointment. For more complex work such as implant placement, a treatment plan spanning multiple visits may be required, but the initial consultation and preparatory steps can often be handled on the first day. Calling ahead to describe your needs allows the clinic to allocate the right appointment length.
How close is New Age Dental Clinic to San Diego?
New Age Dental Clinic is located in Tijuana, which shares a border with San Diego, California. From downtown San Diego, the journey to the clinic takes roughly 30 to 45 minutes under normal conditions, including the border crossing. This proximity makes New Age Dental one of the most accessible international dental clinics for patients based in San Diego, and also a practical option for patients flying into San Diego International Airport from elsewhere in the United States. The short distance means patients can often complete a dental appointment and return home the same day without needing overnight accommodation.
How much can I save on implants at New Age Dental Clinic compared to US prices?
Dental implants in the United States typically cost between $3,000 and $6,000 per tooth when factoring in consultation, placement, abutment, and crown. At New Age Dental Clinic in Tijuana, the same components can be provided at a significantly reduced cost, often 50 to 70 percent lower. For patients needing multiple implants or full-arch restorations, the savings can reach tens of thousands of dollars. These savings exist because of the lower overhead costs in Mexico, not because of inferior materials. New Age Dental uses internationally recognised implant systems, and the savings can be further offset by applying whatever insurance reimbursement your US plan provides.
What should I expect when crossing the border to see a dentist in Tijuana?
For first-time visitors, crossing into Tijuana for a dental appointment feels more straightforward than many people expect. The main border crossing points are well-organised, and crossing on foot is often faster than driving. You will need a valid passport or passport card to re-enter the US. Once on the Tijuana side, transportation to New Age Dental Clinic is readily available. The clinic itself is oriented toward US patients, so English is spoken and billing documentation is provided in formats that US insurers recognise. Bringing your insurance card, photo ID, and any existing dental records or X-rays from a previous provider helps the appointment run efficiently.
What treatments does New Age Dental Clinic offer?
New Age Dental Clinic in Tijuana offers a broad range of dental services, covering preventive care, cosmetic treatments, restorative dentistry, and oral surgery. This includes cleanings and X-rays, teeth whitening, veneers, dental implants, crowns, bridges, dentures, root canals, and extractions. The clinic is set up to handle both routine care for patients who cross regularly and larger treatment plans for patients making a one-time visit to complete significant work. The combination of insurance acceptance and a wide treatment menu makes New Age Dental a viable option for US patients who want to address multiple dental needs in a single trip.
Can US patients use New Age Dental Clinic for dental emergencies?
US patients who experience a dental emergency and are based in or near San Diego can reach New Age Dental Clinic in Tijuana relatively quickly given the clinic's proximity to the border. Dental emergencies such as severe toothache, lost crowns, broken teeth, and abscesses can often be assessed and treated on the same day. It is advisable to call ahead if possible so the clinic can prepare for your arrival and prioritise your appointment appropriately. New Age Dental's team is experienced in treating US patients on short notice, and the clinic's US insurance acceptance means you may be able to claim emergency treatment costs back through your provider.
How do I handle insurance pre-authorisation before visiting New Age Dental Clinic?
Pre-authorisation for dental treatment at New Age Dental Clinic in Tijuana follows the same process as pre-authorising any out-of-network dental care. Before your appointment, contact your insurance provider to describe the planned procedures using standard ADA procedure codes, and ask whether they will provide a pre-determination of benefits. This gives you a written estimate of what your plan will cover before you commit to treatment. New Age Dental's billing staff can assist in identifying the correct procedure codes for the work you need. While pre-authorisation is not always required, obtaining it before travelling provides clarity on out-of-pocket costs and reduces the chance of claim disputes after treatment.
