That's helpful context. So all that for about 1 months salary in Mexico. Meanwhile the USA estimate was multiple months salary. Looks like about 4-5 months for the average American.

Sure, but 21,000 usd as he was quoted is closer to the average annual salary in America. So it's still disgustingly more affordable for a local Mexican to afford their own dental care.

Not to undermine your point, dental services are still kinda expensive for regular people, but this is also Tijuana, a border city where stuff is more expensive.

And that dental clinic probably inflates their prices since they provably service a number of foreigners.

plenty of people in the US live off that same amount

Walking into a hospital in America is a month of work for me before they even do anything and i make good money for an American.

US minimum wage $7.25 x 160 hours = $1160.

Guess what, that's also roughly a months salary for some people in the US too. Not only do we have shitty healthcare but we also have shit wages.

Yeah that's what I expected. Yes we're being fleeced in America, but also low cost of living, lower wages, and cheaper education can all drastically reduce the price of dentistry
