Guatemala Dentistry

So you are travelling and you get that pain.  

TOOTHACHE!!!!! 

YIKES....It has to be the worst pain on this planet and yes that pain well it is all yours. It is personal, it is annoying and yes it HURTS!!

So whether you have an emergency toothache to get rid of, or you just want that planned dental work, you need to go to someone you can trust. 

Guatemala has only around 2000 licensed dentists. The rest are people that just pull teeth and put gold fillings over cavities.   

Here I want to recommend to you a real dentist that you can actually trust. 
He is Dr. Fredy Barrios.
The clinic is in Edificio Torre Professional Primer Nivel, Clinica 7, (7767-2707) <dentalguate@gmail.com> is on 17th avenida 4-42 zona 3, here in Quetzaltenango (Xela), Guatemala.

I personally had some dental work done there. An exam with an Xray cost me Q150 ($18.75). The tooth was a mess and so a root canal was suggested. A specialist did the work and my root canal cost me Q800 ($100).... Teeth cleaning costs Q100 so not really very much ($ 12.50).

But don't take my word for it, check it out for yourself.
