Who wants to be troubled by weak, crooked, ugly or painful teeth? Who wants to be bothered with the inconvenience of the dentures slipping in and out of their mouth trying to grip a piece of food? Dental implants would solve the problem but they are very expensive. Add to that, attaching a crown and the price becomes astronomical. However, in Bangkok, crown and implant dentistry is very professional and very affordable.
The American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AAID) has determined that more than 30 million Americans suffer from missing all their teeth in either one or both jaws. In the US, there is a potential of spending $1 billion on dental implants. On an average, the cost for a single tooth implant is $2,000. Even in western countries with universal health care plans, implants are rarely covered. In Bangkok, the cost of dental implants, bridges and crowns is only a fraction of the costs in the US.
Medical value tourism in Thailand is on the rise, thanks to affordable and high quality healthcare offered in internationally accredited hospitals.
What a Bangkok Dental Clinic can Offer?
A certified dental clinic in Bangkok can help problem teeth by installing implants that work in conjunction with and support crowns, bridges or dentures without burning a hole in the pocket.
The dental industry in Bangkok complies with qualified international sterilization standards. Many dentists have their dental equipment autoclaved and maintained using CE certified sterilization units.
Also dental tourists may choose to visit a Bangkok dental spa that, in addition to dental work, offers:
• Relaxing massages.
• Luxurious lounges with music, TV and internet access.
• Delicious refreshments.
What to Do Before Engaging a Dentist in Bangkok?
• Do proper research before selecting a dentist. As in any country, care must be taken that the person or clinic has all proper credentials.
• Professional accountability may not be the same as in the home country. Legal advice is advisable to see what recourse is available for people who are not satisfied with their treatment.
Many thousands of dental tourists, however, have had their dental crowns and implants done in Bangkok. They are happy, satisfied and spreading the news. It may well be worth the effort to make the necessary medical and legal research for a low-cost permanent set of new teeth.
