Dental health is an essential part of overall health, yet the majority of dental procedures in North America are not covered by healthcare or insurance. Patients are forced to pay ludicrous amounts of money to attain even the most basic of dental procedures, procedures which have an enormous impact on their physical and psychological wellbeing.
Inadequate dental coverage has many Americans considering medical tourism, traveling around the globe for more affordable medical procedures. With the economic recession taking its toll and the noncompliance of insurance companies, Americans are now finding it easier to obtain dental care abroad.
Often, those considering dental care abroad are concerned that the reduction in price of treatment translates into a reduction of quality. In reality, the affordable prices of dental tourism have to do with the lower cost of living in other countries, resulting in more affordable labor and substantially reduced material costs. This is the real reason behind affordable treatment for dental care abroad; it is not the result of “cutting-corners.”
Medical Tourism, although convenient financially, can be nerve-racking concept for some. Planning where to go, when to go, and obtaining the necessary information on medical facilities can be stressful.
Patients considering travel for medical treatment should turn to a reputable medical tourism agency for guidance. Passport Dental is one such agency, organizing dental vacations to Costa Rica, Cancun, and Los Algodones Mexico.
