⚠️⚠️The worst experience of my life was at this dental clinic. I went in for a minor problem with a tooth; I wasn't in pain, I was just having trouble flossing. Once I was there, they told me I had problems with five teeth and that I needed crowns on all five, plus the five adjacent teeth they were touching. They said those adjacent teeth were fine, but they needed to be crowned to "match." I…

believed them, and they ended up putting ten crowns on me. Now, the only thing I can eat is something like a lukewarm smoothie. I have constant pain in my jaw. I can no longer sleep on my side like I used to. Every time it's time to eat, I panic because it hurts terribly in my mouth. The crowns they put on aren't shaped like teeth; they look more like plates of different sizes. It's the worst nightmare I've ever had. I went back, but they only give me pills, and when I stop taking them, the pain returns. Besides, with the teeth they put in, I can't grind my teeth properly. I would pay them again to get my old teeth back, the ones that never hurt, but I know that's impossible. To anyone reading this, I recommend that you really understand the problem you need and don't necessarily accept recommendations from dentists in Mexico, because they'll try to make a sale and recommend work you don't necessarily need.
I don't think anyone ever expects go to the dentist and get a good experience, but these guys actually did it. Thank you so much for your excellent work.

MARA!! The front desk receptionist is really friendly and helpful. I'd like to start off by saying how this experience has been one of my best dental decisions in my life. (Why did I wait so long) Dr. Edgar and his wife Dr. Nalleley are super gental and work very quickly. They have a great team! I had 5 root canals and 5 crowns done in a 2 day visit. No issues! I'll be back again very soon.

We really appreciate your review and your trust. Thank you so much Crystal.
Truly a Hidden Gem Dr. Acosta and Dr. Pelayo made dental work feel effortless. I had 15 zirconia crowns and 6 root canals done seamlessly, with no pressure, no upselling, and transparent pricing. They both take pride in their work and the results show. St. Thomas Dental is a SOLID choice. Doctors, Mara and the team, Thank You. These are MY PHOTOS.

I needed an extraction & bone graft to start my journey to an implant. I sent tons of questions to Mara and she always answered them with a quick turnaround! You’d NEVER get that service in the states. My extraction and graft took roughly 40 mins and I was nervous I cried, but Dr. Nalleley L. Acosta & her assistant literally wiped my tears away. I was stitched up handed my treatment, post…

I had the best experience at St Thomas Dental, starting with Mara the office manager, she was so friendly and knowledgeable. Dr Pelayo was so kind and explained everything to me in detail, I so loved that. I had a total of 10 caps 8 for a lifetime wanting a pretty smile and 2 that were needed. The office was nice and clean and Dr Pelayo's assistant was always making sure I was comfortable. There…

was no pain and it took only few days, it helped that his lab was right there. When I returned home my regular dentist said she was very impressed Dr Pelayo did a Beautiful job. I have recommended St Thomas Dental and Dr Pelayo to friends and family. My husband is going to have some work done when we return next year. I love my new pretty smile and am so Happy I found Dr Pelayo.

I've now been to Thomas Dental three times, and during my latest visit, they upgraded my 12-year-old partial to a few implants. I'm beyond satisfied with how everything turned out—finally, no metal in my mouth! Huge thanks to the whole team!

This place was recommended to me by my Aunt and I'm so glad I took her word for it. I had two implants last winter. I went back for the second step. Everything was excellent. As far as implants go, I highly recommend them.

Thanks for share.
Great service, spacious and super clean clinic. The dentist's work was excellent. My crown was ready after two hours. The prices are very affordable, especially compared to other dentists in California.

From the very beginning, Mara was incredibly helpful. I honestly lost count of how many emails I sent her, yet she replied to each one promptly and with genuine kindness. By the time I met with the doctor, they were fully informed about my situation. It's really reassuring to see how much care they give to each patient. Many thanks!
