Why I started Borderless

I once had the same questions.

My own dental journey took me to Mexico in 2021. I found excellent care, but getting there felt overwhelming. I started Borderless to be the trusted guide I wish I had.

My story

Built from personal experience, not a sales pitch.

The story starts in 2017, when my wife, Tracy, was diagnosed with Stage 4 lung cancer. For nine months, family, friends, and complete strangers helped our family in ways I will never forget. Tracy passed away in 2018, and the next year I retired to raise our two boys, who were 10 and 11 at the time.

Without dental insurance, I eventually needed quite a bit of dental work myself. Years of grinding my teeth had caught up with me. In 2021, I researched every option I could find and chose Mexico because I wanted the best value for my money. I was nervous. I did not know who to trust, whether the reviews were real, or what the experience would actually be like.

What I found changed the way I looked at dental travel. But I never forgot how overwhelming that first trip felt. That is why I started Borderless. I want to answer your questions, connect you with a carefully vetted clinic, and make the experience feel less overwhelming.

If you would have told me 10 years ago that I would start a company helping people travel to Mexico for dental care, I would have said you were crazy. But life has a way of changing your plans.

During Tracy’s illness, people brought meals, helped with our boys, and even helped us get to Boulder, Colorado, for one last treatment we hoped would change everything.

Raising the boys on my own taught me a lot. I am pretty sure I earned a PhD in school drop offs, grocery shopping, and pretending I knew what I was doing. They are now young adults attending college.

I have since returned to Mexico for care and brought my boys for cleanings and fillings. The modern technology, professional care, and personal experience gave me the confidence to help other people find their own way forward.
