Is Going to Thailand or Bali For Dental Implants a Good Decision?

Dental implants and the procedure going with it are expensive in Australia, all the more if you compare prices with what is offered in Thailand and Bali.

A lot of Australians have made their way abroad so they could get the procedure done at a lower cost. It has become such a trend that some companies now offer packages, holiday + dental implant treatment, and the term Dental Tourism has become a generic term. 

The prospect of a holiday and having the procedure done for the same price as what Australian dental practices offer is tempting. One must wonder though, is it that Australian dental practices over-pricing or Bali or Thailand practice offer prices too low to be true? As it happens, there are a few things that you should keep in mind when being given a cost.

Here are a few things you should think off before signing up for a dental tourism trip: 
- the time off work you take that you can't get back for real holidays
- the additional costs and time off for another trip if there are complications with the surgery and you need to get back to fix it. 
- Several consultations over a few months are required to make sure the implant has taken properly, the gum has healed, and for the abutment to be placed on top of the implant.

This is just the top of the iceberg, read through our comprehensive dental tourism article to decide whether it is worth the risk.
