Dr. Alejandra Paz
Cosmetic Dentistry D.D.S. — Prosthodontics and Implantology
Dr. Alejandra Paz is the cosmetic and restorative cornerstone of Smile Makeover Playa del Carmen. She holds a Master’s Degree in Prosthodontics and Implantology from the Universidad La Salle Bajío, one of Mexico’s most respected dental institutions and has built her career at the intersection of science and aesthetics.
Professional History
Her academic and professional reach extends well beyond Mexico. Dr. Paz has taught at multiple universities across the country and has attended advanced international courses in Los Angeles, Jerusalem, and Liechtenstein, staying at the forefront of cosmetic dentistry innovations as they emerge globally.
Her experience spans both simple and highly complex cases, including full-arch restorations, implant-supported prosthetics, and complete smile makeovers.
At our Playa del Carmen clinic, Dr. Paz approaches every patient with the same philosophy: that a truly great smile is designed around the individual, their facial structure, skin tone, gum line, and personal vision, not a template. Her work reflects both technical precision and a genuine artistic sensibility that consistently delivers natural, long-lasting results.
