∙ 12y agoProbably not. Medical standards differ all over the word. The dentist would need all the necessary schooling for USA standards and be licensed by the state in which the dentist wants to practice. Contact the dental association for the state in question.

How do you find a good dentist in Mexico across the river from Yuma?
I can't recommend a dentist in that area but have been using a dentist in Progreso for a couple of years and am quite happy with the care I have recieved.....and any US dentist is going to kick a fit when you say mexico....the US dentists are losing billions of dollars because of the cheaper prices in Mexico. All of my bad dental experiences have been in the US...not in Mexico. The only thing I will say about using a Mexican Dentist is to get your price agreed upon first

What are the requirements to become a dentist in the US if you are a practicing dentist in Mexico and a Mexican citizen?
Apply to, attend, and graduate from an American Dental Association accredited dental school. Pass Part I and II of the National Board Dental Exam. Pass a licensure examination. In a nutshell, your training in Mexico doesn't count for jack in the States. You have to start over pretty much from the beginning. == Alternatively, continue to practice in a border town in Mexico. US citizens will come over and use your services because you will be able to charge less. My dentist lives in Rio Rico, AZ and travels to Nogales, Mexico when he has appointments.

Why don't the dentists in Algodones Mexico practice in the US?
First, they probably don't have a US license to practice in the USA. Second, why should they? They probably live the same standard of living in Mexico charging Mexican prices as US dentists in the USA have, and they don't have all of the bureaucratic b.s. to deal with.
Can doctors licensed in Mexico practice in the US?
Licensure and certification. All States, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories license physicians. To be licensed, physicians must graduate from an accredited medical school, pass a licensing examination, and complete 1 to 7 years of graduate medical education. Although physicians licensed in one State usually can get a license to practice in another without further examination, some States limit reciprocity. Graduates of foreign medical schools generally can qualify for licensure after passing an examination and completing a U.S. residency.
