Have you ever had trouble finding a dentist you liked? Have you ever been “fired” by a dentist because he or she just didn’t seem to want to take the time or effort to treat your specific dental problems or issues? More people are finding themselves turned away from dental offices because their dental issues are too complex or too time consuming compared to reimbursement for such services.

Dental treatments in the United States are growing increasingly expensive, and individuals looking for traditional dental fillings, extractions, bonding, dental crowns or bridges or even more complex procedures such as bone grafts or dental cyst operations find that the costs of cosmetic dentistry are astronomical.

In the United States, a single tooth extraction may cost up to $650. Travelers venturing south of the border to Mexico, Costa Rica and even further south into Panama, Guatemala, Columbia or Argentina can save between 50% and 75% on the same dental procedures, with the same quality as those performed in the United States.

Dental medical facilities such as Wellness Dental, located in Costa Rica, or the Cancun Cosmetic Dentistry facility in Cancun, Mexico offer American and international patients superlative dental expertise at a fraction of the costs found in the United States.

Travelers to Italy, Turkey, and Thailand find excellent, world-class and JCI accredited dental facilities for treatments and procedures such as cosmetic dentistry veneers, dental crowns and bridges, mini dental implants, flexible dentures, custom dentures, and inexpensive cosmetic dentistry that offers choices and options to suit every need.

A large percent of baby boomers (those between the ages of 45-65) are currently uninsured. Many who belong to this age group have lost their jobs due to aging, unemployment or downsizing and are no longer covered by affordable health care or insurance.

 

Traveling beyond local borders offers this group, more than any other demographic, the opportunity to pursue and receive premium healthcare, alternative treatments and travel, all at the same time. Boomers are leading the way to more affordable healthcare, seeking medical care overseas to address such needs as knee and hip replacement surgeries, cardiac care, and alternative treatments for chronic conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, orthopedic procedures, and dental care.

 

American boomers needing dental care and prescriptions often travel south of the border into Mexico or even as far as Brazil, Argentina, and Costa Rica for their needs. Dental procedures as well as medications in Latin American countries is less than half of what comparable procedures and medications cost in the United States. Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia are popular destinations for those needing hip or knee replacement surgeries. Europeans are making trips to Hungry and Poland for dental and cosmetic procedures at great savings, even after including the cost of travel and hotel or clinic accommodations.

 

Hospitals in South America or Asia generally cost one half of the price charged in the United States and Europe. For example, cardiac and orthopedic surgeries performed in India can save health travelers nearly $20,000 or more with one surgical procedure.

 

The health and wellness industry is booming, and today’s older adults and boomers are leading the way to a new revolution in affordable health care known as medical tourism.
