June 2025I recently had an excellent experience with a wisdom tooth removal by mini surgery performed by Dr. Joel Laga in Algodones, Baja California. From start to finish, the appointment was handled with utmost professionalism and care. Dr. Laga demonstrated exceptional skill and precision during the procedure. The mini surgery to extract my wisdom tooth was done efficiently and with minimal discomfort. He took the time to thoroughly explain the process beforehand, which helped ease any anxiety I had. The use of modern dental technology and sterile environment at the clinic contributed to a very smooth and reassuring experience. The staff at the clinic were friendly, attentive, and supportive throughout the visit. They ensured I was comfortable and well-informed about post-operative care. The facility itself was clean and well-equipped, reflecting high standards of dental care typical in Algodones, a place known for quality dental services at reasonable prices. Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Joel Laga for anyone needing wisdom tooth removal or similar dental procedures in Algodones, B.C. The combination of expert care, clear communication, and a comfortable environment made this one of the best dental appointments I’ve ever had. The value and quality of service here stand out compared to typical experiences elsewhere.

May 2025My 81-year-old mother needed dental care as she was missing several teeth, which made eating very difficult for her. From the moment we arrived, Dr. Joel welcomed us warmly and made us feel completely at ease. He took X-rays and provided a precise diagnosis. The first step was extracting the remaining upper teeth and placing implants to support a zirconia bar. In the meantime, she received a temporary full denture. For the lower arch, implants were placed for individual crowns, and root canals were performed on her front teeth. We returned for the final restorations. The upper zirconia bar was securely attached, and the lower implants were restored with individual crowns. Additionally, crowns were placed over the implants and on the natural teeth that had undergone root canals. The results were outstanding! She can now eat anything without difficulty and looks much younger thanks to the beautiful aesthetics of the work. We are beyond happy with the results and highly recommend Dr. Joel Laga. His professionalism, attention to detail, and care throughout the entire process were truly exceptional.
