So we do an…sterilized, reusable materials. And whatever we can use disposable, we use disposable. Autoclave is known to kill all bacteria, spores, viruses and everything so, infection control…is at par with international standards.”

“Every tooth in a man’s head is more valuable than a diamond.”
~Miguel de Cervantes, Don Quixote, 1605

 

It is now time to put an end to the embarrassment caused by that less-than-perfect smile of yours! DentaVacation facilitates high-quality, affordable treatments in dental implant centers in Phuket, Thailand. Medical and dental tourism in Thailand has seen an upward trend in recent years, with an estimated 1.4 million medical tourists visiting the country per annum (data source: “Medical tourism under threat.” (2012) by Sutapa Amornvivat, Bangkok Post, Published 20/06/2012). Good service, coupled with affordable rates, has quickly turned Thailand into one of the premier hubs for dental treatment in Asia.

 

What is the Cost of Dental Implants in Phuket, Thailand?

One of the principle reasons for the surge in patients to dental clinics in Thailand is that the price of dental implants in Phuket and other Thai cities is often considerably less than in countries like the USA, the UK, Canada and Australia.
Dental Implant Center in Phuket - Thailand

  • Fees are determined on a case-by-case basis, but it would not be unusual to find that teeth implant costs in Thailand are approximately 50% lower than those found in the USA, the UK, Canada and Australia.
  • Easily affordable dental implants in Thailand are result of difference in the cost of living, rather than a lowering of standards.
  • The Thai dental clinics in DentaVacation’s network are renowned for using only high-tech equipment and state-of-the-art facilities, and boast of accreditation for excellence by the Joint Commission International (JCI).
  • Even when you factor-in the price of transport and accommodation, the total cost of dental care in Thailand could still allow significant savings.

Benefits of Choosing Dental Implants in Thailand

  • DentaVacation works only with reputable dentists in Phuket, Thailand who have a proven track record in the field of dentistry.
  • The Thai dentists who associate with DentaVacation are skilled in all of the latest implant techniques ensuring that you can have the surgery you need. This includes having relatively quick treatments like immediate load implants in Thailand.
  • Long waiting lists in your own country might play havoc with your schedule. However, booking your treatment abroad often means that you can specify your own timetable. So, when you book for all-on-6 implants or immediate load implants in Thailand, you can do so for a time and date of your choosing.
  • One of the main concerns you might have when organizing your porcelain veneers procedure or all-on-4 dental implants in Phuket is that there may be communication issues. However, DentaVacation deals with dental clinics where staff is well-versed in dealing with English-speaking patients.

 

Planning Your Dental Trip to Thailand

  • Carry out your own research. Performing a quick and easy internet search will help verify that your chosen dental implant center in Phuket meets your expectations and requirements.
  • Although dental implants are a popular and permanent solution to missing teeth, some people don’t have sufficient bone for the procedure or have medical problems which preclude treatment. Heavy smokers, pregnant women and young patients without fully developed jaws may not make appropriate candidates and it’s therefore important to speak to your Phuket dental implant center to ensure your suitability.
  • Make sure you are fully aware of the risks involved with having dental implants. In some cases, this might include the implant not fusing correctly with the bone, infection, soft-tissue damage or nerve damage.
  • In Phuket, dental implants information can be provided by your dentist. Advice on how best to manage your implants might include taking antibiotics or antiseptic mouthwash to reduce infection or over-the-counter painkillers if you require pain relief.
  • It’s best to have all of your travel documentation in place prior to your trip. Passports and VISAs can take time to organize.

  • Following your arrival for affordable dental implants in Thailand, remember to take appropriate precautions. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggests making sure that your routine vaccinations are up- to-date, taking anti-malarial drugs as required, drinking only bottled water, wearing insect-repellant and packing sunscreen.
  • Traveling to Phuket doesn’t need to be taxing as the city is served by its own international airport (Phuket International Airport), the second largest in Thailand. Direct flights are available from a number of international destinations including London, UK (less than 12 hours) and Sydney, Australia (less than 10 hours).
  • Factor in some recovery time to your trip and take the opportunity to enjoy the numerous delights that Phuket has on offer. Whether you’re interested in a jungle safari in the Khao Sok National Park, a world famous Thai massage or a tour of the city’s historical sites, Phuket has something for everyone.

If you’re looking to join the ever increasing ranks of medical tourists traveling to Thailand for treatment, DentaVacation offers to facilitate the process. Missing or broken teeth can interfere with your quest for a dazzling Hollywood-star-like smile. However, visiting a dental implant center in Phuket, Thailand can offer an affordable and high-quality alternative to treatment in your own country.

Dentist in Cancun Explains Aesthetic Dentistry

Posted by: Deepika on August 29th, 2012 no responses.

The video shows a leading prosthodontist talking about Aesthetic/Cosmetic dentistry as practiced in Cancun, Mexico. Many patients testify that dental work in Mexico is equivalent, if not better, to that in the US or Canada.

 

 

Narration – “Cosmetic and Aesthetic dentistry are basically the same, some people call it cosmetic, some people call it aesthetic dentistry, but basically what we’re talking about here is enhancing the smile of the patient, right. There are several ways to do that and each case is different of course. So, it’s very important when you’re talking about aesthetics to have a pre-determined aesthetic analysis, has smile line of the patient gingival architecture…precision, arch precision, type of occlusion, there are so many things that are involved because you cannot just do an aesthetic thing without thinking of function. That’s so important.

 

Some people overlook this, they just think they’ll make you look nice, that’ll be good, but in long term if you don’t take special care of function of the patient, you can deliver something very nice that would not last long. So, I do believe that aesthetic dentistry goes hand in hand with function of course but we can internally do that, what we call the ‘smile makeover’ very successfully nowadays but you do need to have aesthetic analysis to see you have to involve…in order to take care of the gums because sometimes it’s the gums that are not looking good. You need to understand that some teeth will not be in the right positions, so sometimes you have to think about orthodontics in some cases. We can almost always provide very very good outcomes to our patients who’re looking for aesthetic dentistry.”

Dentist on Dentistry with CAD/CAM Technology in Mexico

Posted by: Jason on August 29th, 2012 no responses.

The video shows a dental implant surgeon talking about the use of modern technology to assist dentists at his dental clinic in Cancun, Mexico.  He also discusses the CAD/CAM technology used at his dental center. A review of Mexican dental services reveals that Mexican dental centers – Los Algodones, Cancun, and Tijuana – offer first world quality at third world prices.

 

Narration – “An excellent…for example, as far as radiography, we only do digital. We have the newest as far as surgical kits for implants either for…or regular surgery. We do have, as far as softwares, computer softwares, we have one that clinical administrative part as well as the odontograms so that we can explain to the patients treatment plans that throws away exactly the budgets and everything so that they can have the copies of this.

 

And as far as softwares for surgical implant planning, we have software that is excellent, we have iCAD in town, that’s where we send all our patients for the iCAD with this iCAD and software to do our surgeries before we do anything on the patients. That allows us to go in knowing what we are going to find, knowing quality of the bone that the patient is gonna have, know exactly what type of implant we’re gonna use, what’s the position of the implant. It facilitates a lot of things for us and for patients of course.”

A Top Cancun Dentist on his Dental Staff

Posted by: Jeff on August 28th, 2012 no responses.

The video shows a leading Prosthodontist from Cancun, Mexico discussing the qualifications of his staff. It makes a lot of common sense in getting dental work in Mexico since the staff is competent, facilities are world class, and the prices unbeatable.

 

 

Narration – “In my clinic, we are several doctors, myself included of course, I do most of the surgical part of implants and…To do we have an excellent prosthodontist, surgeon from Venezuela, she did her post grad in Mexico, she has been working with me for several years now. We have a periodontist, he was the one that started the implant post grad at the university, national university in Mexico. He’s an excellent surgeon and periodontist. My associate in the…office is a prosthodontist again, she’s from Mexico, she did post grad in Mexico. She has many years of experience, excellent, very kind person. And, we have two general dentists too, that do the restorative part.

 

We try to do several goo conventions, when I say good conventions I mean more than anything the academics, Academy of …, Academy of restorative to prosthetic dentistry. These are the main courses that we go to mainly because they are exposing us to newest parts of dentistry, me being here doing …for four residents, when I go there we get together, we discuss cases, we go over new techniques, whatever we are seeing, that’s the newest part of this dental we can do for our patients.”

 

It’s not just US nationals that find Mexican cities of Cancun or Los Algodones appealing for a dental vacation. Canadians – aghast over the dental prices back home – also frequently take a trip down south for getting dental work done. Here’s a testimonial of a Canadian lady Cheryl reviewing the dental work in Mexico.
