It’s no accident that the principals in Beyond Borders Dental got involved with cross-border dental tourism. The founders of the company have over twenty years’ experience in tourism and have developed several large businesses which seek to help people and communities.
We first heard about receiving dental care outside the U.S. when a friend needed about $10,000 worth of dental work she couldn’t afford. Her own local dentist suggested an agency that referred her to a dental clinic in Costa Rica. While the work was excellent, the costs and time to travel to Costa Rica were a separate challenge.
When the founders of Beyond Borders Dental needed $6000 worth of dental care, they began researching various options to save on quality care much closer to home. They were referred by friends in southern New Mexico to a dentist on the Mexico border. That resulted in getting four dental crowns done at a dental office in Mexico for a total of $920, a savings of over $5000. After one visit to Mexico for dental care, they knew they had to spread the word. There is no need to put off needed dental treatment because of the cost. This was the start of Beyond Borders Dental.

Our Community Service Projects
The founders of Beyond Borders Dental have developed close relationships with many people in Mexico. Because border towns are where the majority of the people live in poverty and education and employment opportunities are limited, the economic activity Beyond Borders Dental brings and the promotion of the quality services that can be acquired there can have a significant impact.
