Posts: 3510If you need eyeglasses, I recommend "Ópticas Hugo." Talcahuano 26. Hugo is uruguayo and is very funny. Has seven daughters and two work there and are cute, although they have "expanded" a bit over the years.
When I was there last year, I hadn't seen him in five years. I walked in the door, he looked at me, and said my last name. I complimented him. He pointed to his bald head and said, 'El lobo pierde el pelo pero nunca las mañas.'.
Doesn't really translate well but for those who speak castellano, pretty droll.

Posts: 3510I had one done and was satisfied with the work and quality, although I don't remember the exact cost. I think it was $550 US given the rate at the time but would not swear to it.
The dentist's office was right by the Aristóbulo del Valle train station, on the same side Avenida Maipú, facing the ring road. I think it was on the street called Aristóbulo del Valle but it might be one block farther away. You will find cheaper prices if you go outside the city limits. Another dentist I can recommend is named Torchio or Torrchio and his office is in Martínez barrio, I believe. He may have more than one office. His son is also a dentist.

Has anyone had dental implants done in Bs. As.? I've been in contact with Dental DAS and their prices seem very good.

I live in the S.F. Bay Area, so my costs for what you had done would have cost me $255 without insurance.
I had a filling done yesterday, it would have cost me $180 without insurance.
It is too bad you did not pay in pesos, you would have save lots more.
When I was there my bridge fell out, they glued it back in for $150. At home they would have charged me for a new one. Most likely a few thousand dollars.

Posts: 61Dental DAS Group
Gentlemen: Went for a check-up and cleaning at Dental DAS Group which is located at Lapirda 1621, piso 2B , the cross street is Beruti and it is near the German Hospital. The facility is state of the art with new dental equipment and digital dental X-Rays. Most of the staff speaks English. The prices are quoted in dollars online but you can pay in pesos. I misunderstood the pricing during my telephone conversation scheduling my appointment. I thought they only accepted dollars and I foolishly paid by credit card which was unnecessary. Regardless the visit cost less than just a cleaning in San Francisco.
Cost: Examination 350 Ar.
Panoramic X-Rays 350 Ar.
Cleaning 770 Ar.
The Cleaning was done by a cute little female dentist and the exam was done by the head of the clinic. The dentist who appeared to be the boss spoke superb English and I believe he was US trained by his mannerisms. The clinic is completely digital and staff communicate with each other with walkie talkies, so there is no wasted time with the staff waiting around for instructions. If the dentist wanted something she merely used her voice pager and someone brought what she wanted.
The facility is so nice and efficient that I am going to have all my dental maintenance work done there and have my cleaning done every 60-75 days instead of the usual 90. I need to avoid any peridontal problems.
BTW: the clinic lists its pricing online. There were no changes at the office.
Paladin.

Posts: 27Dental fees in Argentina
Are the fees for services substantially lower in BA than in the United States? I'm going to be in Argentina for a month, so I would have time to get some dental work done along with the more interesting things I have planned. Thanks in advance!
