Clinica Dental Plaza Marina - Puerto Vallarta Dentist - 48335 Puerto Vallarta

I got lucky, very lucky. I'd been in need of serious dental restorations for many years, and so when I "stumbled" upon the Penalvas several years ago in PV, I met the right outfit for the job. I called two other dentists in PV, and after interviewing them on the phone, I choose Clinica Dental. Quite frankly, initially, I was surprised at the World Class physical set-up of the practice. State of the Art equipment, with a highly competent staff on hand to make me feel comfortable very step of the way. (and, any music I wanted to hear!) A World Class set-up, in a very convenient shopping center. The office was sparkling clean, the staff genuinely friendly and concerned about me and my well being. It was a big job...many extractions and 7 implants, and after several necessary trips to PV, I was able to smile again for the first time in many years. Perfectly matched new teeth, my "Chicklets" are now out there front and center. (Not to mention the great crusty French breads I'm able to enjoy again....I was getting very tired of smoothies!) The cost was very reasonable compared to costs in California. I saved around 40-50% off the cost for similar work in Santa Cruz, CA. , and after many years of hard self employed work, I had some well-earned "mini-vacations" on the beach in Los Muertos, (really fun area of PV), and got to visit long lost fiends in Bucerias, the next town over from PV) During each office visit, I'd see many really happy returning clients from the US and Canada who I know felt as I did, that the Penalvas were like family. Hugs all around. So, I'd be happy to personally share my experience of Clinica Dental and the wonderful Penalva family and staff. You can Email me at: [email protected] and I'll answer any further questions you might have. Happy travels, when you can, Richard D Santa Cruz, California

Terrible, you are terrible at health care. My oral health declined when I walked into this office. Carla Salgado had done work on my mouth and the fillings fell out. How do you sleep? Edit: Within the week of my initial visit went back in to have her fix them, and they fell out again. I went in to demand my money back and they made everything difficult. So "Dr" Carla, did "fix" the fillings that fell out they fell out again. I got my $300 back for the two teeth she really made them worse and caused me much pain since I couldn't see a dentist due to COVID-19. Really a traumatic experience for me, seeking help. Edit: I'm glad this hasn't been deleted, like the past three

It’s rare that you find both a competent and concerned dental clinic strictly by chance in a foreign country but that is exactly what we discovered when we needed emergency dental service while in Puerto Vallarta. Add to that a group of dedicated, compassionate friendly staff and you have a winning team. Excellent service, modern equipment, and a wide range of dental procedures are provided. As we visit PV every year we have scheduled regular check ups and cleanings with them. 5 star recommendation!

Ten years ago while talking with friends from our California friends in Puerto Vallarta they recommend us to Dr. Penalva’s dental clinic. I remember her saying, “You’ll never be disappointed.” We have gone to the clinic ever since and have never been disappointed. Our teeth are cleaned there by very competent, skilled technicians with very modern equipment. We have also had major surgeries and crowns built and all results were more than satisfactory. Now we, like our friends who recommended the clinic to us, say “You’ll never be disappointed.”

Excellent, thorough and professional dental care. Amazing staff, very friendly and helpful. My husband and I are so pleased with our new smiles. Thank you Dr. Carla and staff! Highly recommend.

I recently bought a condo in PV and travel there from Colorado often. My teeth were yellow from using tetracyclyn (antibotic) as a chld. My dentist in Colorado wanted a small fortune to help me with implants and veneers to make them white again- plus a long process. I consulted with Dr. A. Carla Salgado.I was aprehensive at first but once I went to her office- it was state of the art. OMG- what a fantatstic dentist and person. She was awesome. (bi-lingual) She helped me with new implants/ veneers- reasonable cost yes- but so professional and caring. I cannot say enough about how happy and pleased I am with her professional services. But, being an attorney, I know it was not just her but the entire support staff--she has a fantastic back office staff and technicians that helped me through the experience. From now on, regardless of whether I am in PV or in Colorado, I will only seek her professional service. I highly recommend that you consult with this clinic if you in any way seek dental services.

Had a crown break while on vacation. Dr Fernando did an x ray and discovered and infection under the tooth. Instead of just putting on a new crown, he recommended pulling the tooth and getting an implant down the road, once the infection cleared up. He knew I wouldn't be using him for the implant because we leave in a day but that didn't matter. He did what was best for me, not what was most expensive. And Dr. Omar was about the best dental operator ever. Pulled the tooth, didn't feel a thing. This place is amazing

Absolutely the best dentist clinic! Everyone has amazing customer service and truly cares about the client. I had several bondings done on my front teeth and I can’t tell you how wonderful of an experience it was. They fit me into the schedule and truly made magic happen. The cost was very reasonable and the quality was outstanding. I can’t recommend this place enough. Totally worth it and will definitely be back and recommend to everyone. Thank you!!!
