About Merida Smiles

At Merida Smiles, the team of well-qualified dentists, hygienists and assistants is dedicated to providing personalized care with accurate, impressive treatment outcomes–particularly for Americans and Canadians seeking more affordable dental work in this attractive part of Mexico.

Located in the capital of Yucatán, Mexico’s most-visited state, Merida Smiles by Ideal Dental offers a wide range of dental services performed by skilled, fully certified professionals. This is a sister clinic of the highly-regarded Ideal Dental Mexico (Mexico City), which has been welcoming local and international patients for nearly 35 years.


They offer a comprehensive range of general and specialized dental services, including everything from basic extractions, fillings, and laser teeth whitening to more complex full-mouth restorations and smile makeovers with the application of dental implants, crowns, veneers, and fixed, full-arch prosthetics, such as All-on-4s.


The dentists at Merida Smiles are highly trained and hold professional memberships with both domestic and international boards. Across their two locations (here in Merida and the main Ideal Dental branch in Mexico City), the group works with specialists in orthodontics, endodontics, implantology, cosmetic dentistry, and prosthodontics.


Experienced in treating international patients, the dentists at Merida Smiles speak English and Spanish, as well as American Sign Language (ASL).
