Loved the place after my first visit. Unfortunately my second was a nightmare... He got his assistant to help fix a tooth that had about 30% missing. He just patched it up, not cleaning it whatsoever. So not even 3 weeks later, the "patch" just falls out while I'm eating. Worst part is the cavity is still there and now my tooth needs pulled. I felt like they just wanted my money.

Made an appointment via online chat with 2hrs notice. Laser whitening took about an hour. Super happy with results. Great Job!

I've been wanting to correct my smile with veeners as I had gaps. Coming from Orlando to Puerto Vallarta I came across this site after researching good dentists. I was welcome at the door by Dr Sanchez with a big smile. Clean and super friendly staff. He talked me through my process to determine best way to move forward and was immediately comfortable with moving forward with my decision. The…

outcome 100% satisfied. I can now smile with confidence without hiding my teeth. My only worry was I did not want them to look fake. Proof was given when I arrived back to my resort and people I've met asked where did I go. I said oh the dentist and respond was oh they did a great job with your deep cleaning...nice😁😁😁😁 yup all natural..lol....thanks Dr Sanchez🙏🏽

Dr. Sanchez was straightforward and wasted no time. We discussed options and then he went to work on a lower bridge that is working out perfectly so far. Thank you Dental Departures and Smile Vallarta! Barry - Seattle

I came to Dr. Alejandro Sanchez June 2022 to have composite veneers. He was so kind and non judgemental and every single detail he seemed to beam with joy for me. I felt unbelievably comfortably with him as my oral health had taken a turn for the worse. He was patient and followed the best treatment plan. A year later I came by his office just to get a quick polish and routine cleaning and I am…

still very much pleased with my smile and I get compliments everywhere I go! A friend traveled with me and wanted to brighten her smile as well as have an extraction and he immediately sat her in his chair to take care of her. You just don’t find this kind of human let alone dentist anymore. I have referred so many of my friends and family to Dr. Sanchez and I’ll continue to do so! Thank you Smile Vallarta 🫶

Dr Sanchez is the best, he did my veneers while I was on vacation, and his customer service is awesome and his prices are the best. Extremely pleased with his work.

I went to Dr. Sanchez in August of 2022. Although my teeth were healthy, they had lost much of its length and bright coloring due to grinding my whole life. I reached out to several dentists about options and pricing, including Dr. Sanchez and after careful research, I decided he was the Dentist for me to see. His referrals, reviews and pricing was what made me choose Smile Vallarta. I came down…

to Mexico to see him, he thoroughly looked at my teeth. I originally wanted implants, but Dr. Sanchez told me that due to the fact I had all my teeth and my gums were in good shape, that he would recommend Zirconium Crowns. Dr. Sanchez recommended the Zirconium Crowns as I have a very strong bite and to handle the pressure and grinding that would be the best option. I was initially not sure of how to feel about this but boy oh boy, I cannot believe I wanted to remove my teeth. I am so glad about his recommendation, but I will get to that soon. After his initial examination, we took molds of my original teeth, ground my teeth down to the level to add crowns on all of my teeth, top and bottom. He then made a mold of my original teeth to have temporarily. Then shockingly, all my brand new teeth were ready in 5 days! In the US, it takes at least 2 weeks until they are ready. When I came back we started the process of putting them on, which only took a couple hours. It was so easy and not painful. He would show me every couple teeth, on how it looked, to make sure I was satisfied. After we were done putting in all the teeth, and when I looked in the mirror the first time, I teared up. I have not seen a smile like that on me in at least 15 years as I have been hiding it. My teeth look so natural and perfectly fit my face. I still look in the mirror and cannot believe it really happened. They still look like the first day, they are still white and bright. My jaw pain I had for years is gone as it now has the support it needed from my teeth. My friends and family still can't get over how they look. Other friends, co-workers who do not know me as well, did not know I had them done, due to that fact that they look so natural and mimic the original look of my teeth, from the molding and from looking at pictures when I was younger as Dr. Sanchez wanted to make them look as natural as possible. I originally wanted to look the "Hollywood" look, which is the bright bright white, perfectly straight teeth, but he talked me down from that idea to what I have now and I am so so thankful he did. Dr. Sanchez knew what was best for me. For anything who is thinking of going to Smile Vallarta, I would emphatically recommend them to anyone. Dr. Sanchez changed my life and I have reached out to him since my procedure to thank him again for what he did for me. I have attached pictures of my teeth. The purple molding is what they looked like, so ground down, almost to the gum line. And all the other pictures were after. Thank you :)

BUYER BEWARE WHEN CHOSING A DENTIST in MEXICO! He is a one man operation and lacks up to date knowledge and current dental procedures. He informed me to get a root canal. Any cardiologist will tell you that unless it is an abscess you never perform a root canal. This can cause heart issues. His reason was to hold the crown on the molar. Today in North American a dentist would not ever tell you…

to do this. The tooth today is measured with a lazar and the crown in bonded to the original tooth. Dr Sanchez procedure would cost almost the same as in USA or Canada. Root canals are costly and he wanted this done at another office. He does not have a dental hygiene technician to do the tooth cleaning. He charges equivalent to North American pricing and does not provide the service we get in Canada or the USA. He gave me a filling originally on that molar which fell out immediately. THERE IS NO RECOURSE...NO MONEY REFUNDED or repaired! DR B PV Fortunately I am educated in medicine...BUYER BEWARE!

Dr Sanchez was great and honest. No upselling. I am thrilled with my veneers and smile...highly recommended
Kathy Gerwin via Google 5.0 out of 5
Generally speaking people don't like visiting the dentist, but this was a great experience. I broke a crown a couple of months prior to my trip to Vallarta and on a friends recommendation decided to wait. I am very glad I waited. Dr. Alejandro took great care to make sure I didn't have any pain and my crown was done in record time. I highly recommend.

The best dentist in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, excellent service 😁 …
Ryan Lee via Google 5.0 out of 5
Alejandro went above and beyond to make sure my double crown/bridge was made in time, fit & sealed properly and was done right. We needed to make a final adjustment as the lab didn’t quite get it right, and he was willing to squeeze me back in at 9:30 at night just to make sure it was done right. He even came & picked me up from my condo himself! Reasonable priced, excellent level of service…

ce and care. Highly recommend him! Update Oct 2022: Seen him twice now! Cracked a molar and needed an emergency crown! It fit perfectly and put in quickly and was reasonable priced - again!

A doctor with extensive experience and high-quality dental work, highly recommended!
Amir Idriess via Google 5.0 out of 5
Best dentist I’ve ever been to great attention to detail very reliable and just a great person overall. Lost my mouth guard that he made for me and May after getting my top teeth done with composites, Therefore I couldn’t sleep at night due to clenching And woke up with major headaches due to TMJ for those two days. So I decided to go down to PV two days later and decided to get my bottom teeth…

done in resin composite veneers while I was at it so the new mouthguard would fit in the bottom new veneers. He went above and beyond as soon as I landed in Mexico the next day he took me in as his last client before he headed out of the town. He did an amazing job on my teeth and was patient to get the job done properly. Also he made me The night guard I needed with the new dental work made to fit! He also did an amazing job on my father’s post and tooth , Also made sure my dad got around of antibiotics before the work was started unlike the Dentist back in Calgary who decided that once my father decides that he will get his teeth done with them in the clinic in Calgary that he will prescribe him antibiotics… Says a lot about our system in Canada when it comes to dental and affordability. Trust me the matrix that we are living in thinking that Canada America and all this are the best of the best is pure propaganda that they put in your head unless you get out of your box you’ll never know what’s out there and you’ll never know what good people and doctors are out there. I learned this from my experience we are not to be all and all in Canada of anything. The more you pay the more taxes they get lol what a joke glad I got my work done here I’ll never ever get my work done in Canada ever. Thank you Dr.Thank you Dr.Alejandro Sanchez !

Thank you for the excellent experience. Dr. Sanchez, thank you for your expertise; your gentle approach and for the reasonable price. We will be back for sure and will send our friends and family members your way!
Kris Kristianson via Google 5.0 out of 5
Excellent job! Alejandro is a very good smile designer. I got a composite veneer on one of my front teeth which was very dark. Now, almost a year later it still looks perfect. Very natural look, impossible to tell the difference from the other teeth.
Ginta Sica via Google 5.0 out of 5
Highly recommended! Alex makes you feel like you are in a SPA not at the dentists. :) Dental services at the highest standards yet very affordable.
a j via Google 5.0 out of 5
I’m so glad I went here, love my new smile and it was extremely affordable compared to the United States. I received 16 composite veneers and couldn’t be happier with how they turned out.
Kyle Kornegay via Google 5.0 out of 5
I recently was in Mexico for a vacation and fell while getting out of a pool and broke one of my front teeth in half. As someone who prides themselves on having always had great teeth with little to no issues it was a very traumatizing experience. I contacted Smile Vallarta immediately and met with Dr. Alejandro Sanchez who was AMAZING! Not only was the cost great but my experience with…

Alejandro was so comfortable - he felt like someone I had known for a long time. He was very gentle, open and honest about the work that was about to take place. He was also very funny and REAL. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone!

My initial impression was very good fluid in English and came across as very professional, I needed a five tooth bridge put in my upper jaw their was a small preexisting hole in my gum to my sinus from a previous extraction that was closing slowly, I asked Dr. SANCHEZ i this a problem he assured me it was not! The bridge was put in and he ground it down right to the metal in the bridge, it was to…

big and pushed against the tooth new the front of month when I got back to Canada a filling popped out but was just the beginning I started getting extreme pain in my Jaw and teeth as it turned out my sinus has become extremely infected that led to poisoning! I have had for different antibiotic treatments to kill the infection, ive needed Dental surgery to close the hole and remove the bridge the costs have run into thousands of Dollars! Although he has glowing reviews I haven't doubts about their credibility! He put in a bridge that he knew was to big and the wrong color which caused me severe pain over a number of months! This Doctor is incompetent and uncaring and a skilled lair! Avoid him at all costs! I was told in Canada that you never put a bridge over a hole as food will get lodged and it will most certainly cause an severe infection he knew this without a doubt!

I am extremely happy with my resin/composite veneers! I had my top teeth done, and they look amazing. My teeth were discolored and had stains, so I was always embarrassed about them. I was in Puerto Vallarta on vacation and had done my research ahead of time to schedule an appointment during my trip. There wasn’t much setup before getting started, but I believe that was because I had previously…

been in contact explaining what I was hoping for as far as matching two crowns I already had. Unlike porcelain veneers, resin veneers don’t require any numbing of the mouth or grinding the teeth down. I do have a couple of extremely sensitive teeth, so looking back I probably should have opted for an added cost of numbing. Dr. Alejandro Sanchez was very warm and welcoming. He even gave me a hug when I finally saw my teeth and cried out of happiness! (I am not a cryer but I was shocked my teeth could look so good) If you are self-conscious about your teeth/smile, I highly recommend making an appointment with Dr. Alejandro Sanchez.

Terry Gabel via Google 5.0 out of 5
Dr. Sanchez is an outstanding dentist. After having several extremely frustrating evaluation experiences in the US, when I arrived in PV, I made an appointment with Dr. Sanchez. Without question, it was a good choice. He is professional, highly skilled, very experienced and fluent in English. My problem (having a missing tooth replaced with an emax 3 unit bridge because the gap left by the…

missing tooth was too small for an implant) was solved in two consecutive visits. I spoke with my cousin in the US (who runs his own dentist business in Milwaukee) and he was also impressed with the work Dr. Sanchez did (he reviewed the pictures I sent him). I would highly recommend Dr. Sanchez to anyone who was considering dental work. As an added bonus, the price was approximately 75-80% less than it would have cost in the US.

Ann B via Google 5.0 out of 5
My husband and I honestly made an unprecedented decision when choosing Dr. Sanchez. We were nervous and very concerned since my husband has a severe phobia about the dentist. We arrived during the holidays, and Dr. Sanchez was hospitable and made the time to see us. Dr. Sanchez had a plan and made it all work in three days. Dr. Sanchez is a one-person show; he doesn't have a dental assistant…

tant or dental hygenist; It's all him. From the moment Dr. Sanchez greets you, and you sit in his chair. The magic happens.....with a gentle hand and years of experience, he transformed our smiles. Dr. Sanchez’s family tree speaks for itself. He comes from a family of a dentist and orthodontists, so you know his work is impeccable. Trust me when I say I'm never going to any other dentist. All of our future cleanings and check-ups will be by Dr. Sanchez only. Dr. Sanchez, you had me at spit in the bowl...

Christine Smith via Google 5.0 out of 5
Dr. Sanchez is mazing!!! I have a serious phobia about dentist and he immediately took that into account and talked me through everything. Took breaks when I needed it and was constantly checking in to see how I was feeling physically and emotionally. Not only was he very kind and patient with my fears, he is a great doctor. Since I hate dentist I usually never go and when I do they always tell me…

I need Soo much work. Dr. Sanchez explained everything he found with his state of the art equipment he also showed me as well. On top of all of this amazingness he is generally a kind person. I got a little too anxious to drive home and I was his last appointment. He stayed late to make sure my husband picked me up safely. He is a fantastic dentist and person.
