Terrible Experience at Stetic Implant & Dental Centers

hi i wanted to share my experience with stetic ... first off manny is great . the dentists i have seen have been very helpful and patient with my case . my treatment has been pretty difficult as i had no teeth on my upper ridge and needed implants and a fixed arched placed with also several implants in m y lower jaw . they have not only helped me with my hotel costs because the treatment is taking longer then expected, but i have been taken out to eat on a few occasions . i respect this clinic and have and will be continuing to refer people to them . the cost of the work at stetic was about 30, 000 cheaper than i could have gotton in done my home state . nebraska. i am almost finished getting the permanent teeth and couldnt be happier at this point . i will include my email address so if anyone wants to see photos or have any questions i would be more then happy to talk more about my experience . holly

Terrible Experience at Stetic Implant & Dental Centers

I wrote a good review which was all true from [email protected] but did not know that I would get an infection on my implant. My bone and tissue were infected, red, swollen and painful. The implant that was placed was too large and of poor quality and worked it's way out due to infection. Dr. Tacher is not a good doctor and I doubt he is an implantologist. I would never go again to Mexico for dental or any medical. Our doctors in the states have more controls set on them and graduation requirements. I am a dental hygienist whereas by law I can't fill teeth here but in Mexico I could fill, pull or do whatever. My daughter who is a dentist tried to warn me and I would not listen. It does not matter how nice Manny and Theresa are (and they are), you will receive awful dental work that will have to all be redone. I have 3 other teeth they worked on that were simple tooth colored fillings and all had to be redone. They offered to redo the IMPLANT and i just told them no thanks. I don't know if they filed with my dental insurance company or not and don't care. What goes around, comes around. Dr Tacher would not call me back after putting in an inadequate implant. Also, a dentist told me that they do not have the proper machinery (xray, cat) to measure the jaw bone to do an implant properly. Stay away from Mexico and get it done right. No room sometimes for mistakes. It is not far into the pulp chamber of a tooth and when you get there it has a nerve and then it goes into a root canal. Please remember that I am a US Registered Dental Hygienist and know what I am telling you. When you read good comments, they are coming from " invented" customers. Call for info 254-493-1796. Brenda

Terrible Experience at Stetic Implant & Dental Centers

Well... My dentist stated that he had never heard of an implant failing and if Dr. Tacher was SO SKILLED, then; why did my implant come out and I had to suffer infection? He does not have the proper equipment (as I state previously, as I was informed by another implantologist in the states). He used too large of an implant and of poor quality, did not have the proper xray machine to measure the bone. I showed it to my implantologist after it came out. Dr. Tacher may be all this but my experience was bad and his work was inferior. They never reimbursed me for travel expenses, motel, etc. I had one month of suffering with the infection that came from using their office. I do not think his staff was well trained like the ones in the state and I know that all these comments are corrected by the STETIC DENTAL TEAM. Theresa and Manny told me so when I was going to promote their business, which we talked about while I was there with two other ladies at the hotel lobby. It is ashamed that things turned out like they did but I am certain that the work is definitely inferior. The female dentist did a sloppy jon on my tooth colored filling, and I had to have them redone here at my local dentist. Now, they look great. Dr. Tacher never responded about my travel reimbursement. Save your money or you will be sorry. Go to an American dentist and get an honest opinion so you don't have tohave it done twice and lose more tooth structure. And most of all read the other bad reviews, they are true, contact them not the good ones. The good ones are the Stetic Center posing to be someone else.
thanks and hope this helps everyone. The lady Holly strehlow is connected and they have people all over advertising for them and you get a 10% commission for anyone that visits their office for work. Just exactly as I said while I was there. I am not the kind of person to recommend a bad dentist to anyone for a ten per cent commission.They can have any doctors in Mexico do anything they want! All of these degrees stated are incorrect and if you call Houston, you will see that he is not currently an assistant professor to the University of Texas of Houston. Just look it up like I did and they will tell you NO that he is not on their staff!

i am not connected to stetic in any way . i have not exchanged money with them for any reason other than paying for my work . i didnt say you did not have a bad experience i suppose it is possible . i said my experience has been good . implants do not have a 100% success rate, it is possible for an implant to fail . with anything medical dental related there is a chance for infection . it happens .my treatment is not complete as of today . i will update when it is.

Terrible Experience at Stetic Implant & Dental Centers

I recently had work done in Progresso and my experience is positive. I had 5 implants and crowns and am happy with all the work that was done there. If they were here in New Orleans, I would actually use them for my primary care. I have personally spoken to other patients who had work done there. I believe I met the young lady from Nebraska who was down there getting work done the same time as me...
In one of the reviews, one of the patients making a negative post said that her daughter was a dentist. My question is why didn't she get the work done by her daughter or from someone in her daughters network. I would have thought she could have received fair cost and excellent treatment? Some of the things posted just doesn't make sense...

Terrible Experience at Stetic Implant & Dental Centers

13 of Feb 2012 I had some work done in cancun stetic implant centre. I had 8 mini implants put in. I was in so much pain for 5 grulling hrs. The docktor asked me can u feel this. And he continued (What a question) I was almost out of my seat. After about 2 weeks I called back saying 1 implant just pulled out. I came back down for the warranty work. Paid out of pocked flight and hotel. Was told that I would get it back. Have been talking with teresa at least once or twice a week. NOTHING IS HAPPENING. Manny wont even return my calls.I think manny is not all what he says he is. All I want is the work done properly. Or give my money back so I can get the work done $ 5000.00 is what they took from me. I would not recommend anyone going to cancun for any work done. The speach theey give u is all fine and dandy, but when something goes wrong they brush u off and take your money. Dont go there for any work done.They run a company and provide a service, maybe they should ack llike one. If you wish to call my number is 1-705-987-0329. More comments will follow.

Hello Viki

If you are thinking about getting work done in cancun DONT Melissa will tell you yes its all under waranty, Dont worry about it. DONT believe her.

I was there and am still getting screwed and the run around. I would not recommend stetic to anyone.

Stetic Implants in both Progresso and Cancun are 2 places to stay away from. You have been warned. These people just want your money. Melissa blows her own horn outta Cancun and when your problems begin, and they will, she will throw you at Manny and Thresa in Progresso. You will get nowhere with these 2 swindlers. Once these 2 get their hands on your money, their not so nice.
Perhaps when Manny greets you at the airport with no front teeth, you might figure it out.

Terrible Experience at Stetic Implant & Dental Centers

A real good thing to know when paying for services that are questionable is to make sure your Credit Card Co. will back you up if you are cheated ! TD Visa is very powerful and doesn't turn their back on you if they feel you've been deceived. Another thing to watch out for is false advertising. This is when Stetic announces that their having special prices on implants along with special Surgeons. Watch out for that trick. If they try to give you a 3 year warranty, tell em to get lost. I don't know about you, but I don't intend to get my implants replaced every 3 years. Crap. Are they going to pay for your flight, time off work, motel and have a decent dentist to replace them every 3 years? The ride to and from the airport didn't happen either.

Stetic is a nightmare. write me for any and all details. There are probably 100 more cases out there. There are problems I am aware of that may explain how any dentist with such credentials can have such terrible results.

stetic implant and dental centers

Update, after trying to buy my silence, Stetic has admitted that he never had any intention of paying me. Check Dr. Tacher's credentials, especially University of Texas. How could a company hire someone with unverified certs, called U of Texas, no one by that name associated with them. I've heard of a ridiculous amount of infections. Also, be sure to pay with VISA or another charge because you will have protection. My US dentist is trying to work around what they did, which became infected, and still hasn't finished , prognosis is poor. Many good Mexican dental places, but this isn't one of them.

warning

In addition, after running out of proper sized implants, instead of telling patients to wait, they put wrong size in. Also, they never asked me any medical information ahead of time, I had to remind them, also educated them on what supplements to NOT take prior to surgery. Have documented proof of all this. Guarantee? that the same incompetent person will redo the work. NOT that they will cover damages. Although he was to pay me off, Manny , one of the owners, let this drag on so that they could get more "patients", knowing I will post and alert all authorities.
When I told them about my infection, they had the audacity to claim it was coming from elsewhere, even after I had extensive surgery to correct this? Their callous disregard for very important dental issues is astounding. It has to stop somewhere. Even if they hired someone else, I was told Dr. Tacher is not there any longer, they use his impressive sounding credentials to lure people in.
And the posts supporting them are either employees or people too scared to say otherwise.

horrible

i left positive reviews for stetic . and im here to correct them! my experience started out good , as it seems everyones does .however when i returned to get my arch is when everything turns for the worse. when you have implants placed there is minimal pain and you are sent home to heal .well in my case when i returned . i find out 2 of the 6 implants placed on my upper jaw werent placed in the proper spot and were unusable .this in turn makes it impossible for me to have the arch of porcelian teeth i paid for . so had to go to a denture . the doctor at their clinic dr tacher informs me they used the wrong abutments and the denture wouldnt be correct . they never orderd what he told them to . so of course the denture didnt work out i again go back to have another made AGAIN on the wrong abutments . i was sent home and 2 days later i am in so much pain i go to the emergency room . they called a oral surgeon in and had to remove everything because the denture that was cemented on was cutting blood flow off to my gums , and my gums were dyeing . now i am healing but am told i lost so much bone i can not even wear a regular denture with out further bone grafting and surgery . this is unreal . i paid 11125 dollars and i have nothing , i can not eat or function as a normal person . my email is strehlow@abbnebraska and i will share doctors reports pictures and further details of my story .

Stetic

Manny will never pay you. He is a liar . His office in Mexico commits dental malpractice over and over. We both sold our soils to the devil when he demanded we write retractions. In y case he stupidly lied too many times and anyone who chooses this office in light of all the documented damages is crazy.
