Why is dental work in Cali, Colombia so cheap?

Share x-rays and/or treatment plans to get a quote

If you’re like many, you’ve explored getting cosmetic dental work back home but have been turned away by how expensive it is.

If these are not available, complete our free online consultation

If you don’t have x-rays and/or treatment plans available for us to examine, taking photos of your teeth is the next best option. We have a free online consultation form that can easily be done on your phone.

It’s a short form that will guide you in taking 5 specific photos we need to make a proper assessment. We’re looking at your bite, the straightness of your teeth, gaps, and other issues we can observe with photos.

Know that these photos will not replace the need of taking x-rays and/or having a physical clinical examination. This will simply aid us in making a more informed initial dental diagnosis.
