Cone Beam CT Scan in Luxe Dentistry

Jimenez Dental Group is a full-service dental clinic in Los Algodones, Mexico. It opened in 2001 and operates from a single building in the well-known "Molar City" dental tourism hub. The clinic focuses on restorative and implant dentistry for patients from the United States and Canada.

Clinical Expertise and Statistics

The clinic has provided dental services for over 25 years. Four specialized doctors work together as one team. Because of this, patients get all their treatments in one place, without outside referrals.

Implant procedures here have a strong track record. The All-on-4 success rate is over 98%, according to decade-long studies. Surgeons usually finish an All-on-4 surgery in 2.5 to 3 hours.

Dental Specialties and Procedures

Jimenez Dental Group offers complete care through six specialized departments. Each one follows structured pathways to manage complex oral rehabilitations.

Implant and Restorative Dentistry

Dr. Jose Manuel Jimenez leads the implant department and has 25 years of experience. He completed an Implant Certificate at Harvard School of Dental Medicine. Patients can choose from several permanent tooth replacement options:

• Single dental implants with crowns
• All-on-4 dental implants for full-arch restoration
• All-on-6 dental implants for increased stability
• 3-on-6 implant bridges

With the All-on-4 protocol, patients get temporary teeth on the day of surgery. They return after three to six months for their permanent restorations. This healing period gives the implants time to bond securely with the jawbone.

Periodontics and Gum Care

Periodontal services cover gum health, from prevention to advanced surgery. Specialists treat both gingivitis and advanced periodontitis. This protects the foundation that restorative work depends on. Available treatments include:

• Periodontal scaling and root planing (deep cleaning)
• Gum grafting to correct recession
• Gum recontouring and crown lengthening
• Advanced periodontal disease management

Patients can return to normal activities shortly after these procedures. The team gives clear aftercare instructions so the gum tissue heals properly.

Endodontics and Prosthodontics

As part of its endodontic care, the clinic performs root canals under local anesthesia. Prosthodontic services restore function with high-quality materials. Patients can get custom-made crowns, veneers, bridges, and full or partial dentures. For smile enhancement, whitening and bonding are available too.

Technology and Diagnostics

Doctors plan each treatment with advanced imaging. The clinic uses CBCT (Cone Beam CT Scan) to create 3D views of the jaw. This helps doctors check bone strength and gum health before surgery.

Available diagnostic tools include:

• Panoramic X-ray (Orthopantomogram)
• Periapical and targeted X-rays
• Cone Beam CT Scan for 3D implant planning

For comfort during surgical procedures, the clinic offers IV sedation. This helps patients stay relaxed during extractions, cleaning, and implant placement.

Services for International Patients

Jimenez Dental Group is designed for travelers from the U.S. and Canada. Staff speak English and Spanish, so communication stays clear. To make the trip easier, the clinic offers border pickup for patients entering Mexico.

New patients get a free dentist consultation and a free X-ray. After patients return home, the team provides detailed aftercare support and follow-up guidance to monitor recovery.
