Martin,

I appreciated your post, as I do all your posts. For many years I was a fulltime RVer, I know that thousands of American RVers slip over the Mexican border for dental treatment. There are a few towns, that have American trained dentists that, like Ecuador, charge a fraction of what US dentists charge. The most famous border town to get dental work done in Mexico is Los Algodones. It’s a small town that borders Yuma, Arizona, and is by far the most popular border town for RVers. Because so many people go there for dental work, you might hear it called Molar City. There are over 350 dentists within a few blocks of downtown.

Los Algodones thrives on dental tourism, and the money tourists spend at shops, restaurants, and more. There are other border towns, you can find them where large percentages of RVers winter, like Yuma and the Rio Grande valley of Texas.
