Shtern Dental Clinic

Shtern Dental Clinic, a boutique practice in Cancún

Shtern Dental Clinic presents itself as a boutique dental practice in Cancún that deliberately distances itself from what it calls the "assembly line" dental model. Its proposition rests on a multidisciplinary team working under a single roof, so that oral surgery, implantology, periodontics, endodontics, prosthodontics and cosmetic dentistry are planned and completed by the same group rather than referred from clinic to clinic. The practice states that its specialists bring more than 30 years of experience, including a maxillofacial surgeon with fellowship training at the University of Maryland (USA) and a Fellow of the International College of Dentists.

Clinical scope: surgery, implants and cosmetics

The service list covers both surgical and restorative work. On the surgical side the clinic lists dental implants, surgical extraction and sinus lift. The restorative and aesthetic side includes dental crowns, veneers, smile design, periodontal treatment, root canal therapy, general dentistry, dental cleaning, laser teeth whitening and composite fillings. The practice describes having its own laboratory and a 3D CT scanner on site, which it presents as the basis for planning and completing treatment within one team.

Published treatment packages

The clinic publishes all-inclusive pricing for several of its main treatments, stating that evaluation, imaging, the procedure itself and follow-up care are covered with no additional fees, hidden costs or added taxes. The figures shown at the time of writing were:

• All-on-4 dental implants: 10,300–11,300 USD, including evaluation, digital X-rays, 3D CBCT scan, four titanium implants, surgery, IV sedation, bone grafting when clinically required, plasma therapy (PRF), a temporary denture, one fixed zirconia hybrid superstructure and follow-up care.
• Porcelain veneers (E-max), 20 units: 10,400 USD, including evaluation, digital X-rays, 3D CBCT scan, personalised digital smile design, the 20 Emax veneers, the complete veneer process and follow-up care.
• Full mouth dental crowns: 10,400 USD, including evaluation, digital X-rays, 3D CBCT scan, personalised digital smile design, a mix of 20 Emax porcelain and zirconia crowns, the complete crown process, customised shape and shade, and follow-up care.

The practice frames these rates against U.S. and Canadian prices, stating that care is available at up to 70% less than in those markets.

The team

The clinical staff is presented individually on the site. Dr Mark Shtern leads the practice as oral surgeon and dental implants specialist. He is joined by Dr Dan Kopeliovich, oral and maxillofacial surgeon with a focus on head and neck surgery; Dr Gilberto Galvez, root canal specialist; Dr Andrea Revilla, aesthetic specialist; Dr Kevin Ishibashi, cosmetic and restorative dentist; Dr Cecilia Rodriguez, periodontist; and several prosthodontic and rehabilitation specialists, among them Dr Maria Virginia Parra, Dr Yurima Puente, Dr Jacqueline Russek Schwarzblat and Dr Bárbara Salomé Uribe Velalcazar. The roster also includes Dr Brandon Fabricio Garcés Vergara, general dentist with an aesthetic and digital dentistry focus, and Dr Nazly Ivette Méndez González, aesthetic physician specialising in facial rejuvenation. Juli Girshberg appears as office manager.

Dental tourism and international patients

A substantial part of the site is addressed to patients travelling from abroad. The clinic dedicates sections to how treatment for international patients works, whether the trip is worth it, travel support and its warranty policy. It states that staff are multilingual, and the site itself is published in English, Spanish, Russian and Hebrew. Post-treatment follow-up is offered remotely: the practice describes complimentary virtual consultations to guide healing after the patient has left Cancún. It also reports serving patients from Tulum, Cozumel, Playa del Carmen, Puerto Morelos, Isla Mujeres and Holbox, in addition to Cancún.

Patient feedback and other details

The site displays a rating of "Excellent" based on 650 reviews attributed to Google, with individual comments from patients describing implant, restoration and filling treatments. The clinic also references a presence at SHA Wellness Clinic. Its stated priorities include premium materials and brands, an in-house laboratory, safety and quality standards, and what it describes as a welcoming family atmosphere alongside clinical precision.
