re: Any baw ever gotten major dental work done in a 3rd world country?

Ex mother-in-law had grade A insurance because my ex FIL was a PGA-level golf exec. It was still cheaper for her to fly to Texas and my ex would drive her down south of the border for dental work. They'd stay on the US side overnight and drive back and forth over the border. It was at least 5 or 6 trips down to Mexico for all the implant work. She was happy and nothing shady happened. This was 2015-2016ish, so the border was probably not in the same shape it is now. We were together for a few more years before the divorce, and I don't remember her mom having any issues. Airfare, hotels, gas, meals, all that on top of the dental work was still thousands cheaper than going through their insurance.
