A dental Vacation is a simple concept of a combination of going on Vacation, while undergoing dental work on pre scheduled appointments. See simple!
The benefits to this combination are counted mainly in the financial savings a patient can make on their dental work which contributes to the overall savings even when factoring in the Vacation part (Cancun / Mexico) has more variety and choices for budgeted vacations than most, due to its proximity to the United States and Canada , infrastructure, air connectivity and its cost-benefit advantage.
Making this the ideal dental vacation destination, dental clinics and dentists soon seen the opportunities of this beneficial combination and started to focus their efforts on providing dental services to the International patient, in the majority they provide more affordable dental treatments than their colleagues based in the united States and Canada for numerous reasons which we have mentioned in previous blog posts —
So instead of doing what the majority of patients do after a dental visit back home, which is to check and double check the treatment plan costs they had been given during their lunch break to make sure there has been no mistake, usually in disbelief, reality sets in, and then the worry, how can I afford this work, even with “comfortable" monthly payment plans, insurance deductibles and so on, it is more prevalent that people often turn to options outside of their country , not county, Country.
The financial costs of dentistry in the United States and Canada are in a word, astronomical, when comparing the national average household income. We are not here to judge, condone or point fingers, we just know that for the majority, even those with dental Insurance plans, a respectably paid job, or even a comfortable savings pot and or pensions, the costs associated with dentistry are ones that people can ill afford. Statistics continually show the problems on a Country wide scale and with uncertain times especially now with a worldwide pandemic, the future for most is uncertain and people do not want to or cannot financially cripple themselves through such procedures.

And who can blame a person to not want to pay tens of thousands of dollars for dental procedures when there are tried and tested alternatives at a fraction of the cost.
Mexico is not some backwater country that certain media sources would imply or have portrayed, when it comes to health care and private medical and dental clinics, On the contrary Mexico is just as advanced and offers private medical and dental services recognized on an international level. So you are thinking of traveling for your dental work, You go out of country you have no recourse, You don’t know the doctors education, you cannot be sure they are using quality materials, what happens if something goes wrong, All are phrases we have heard at some point along the way, and some rightfully so, but we ask you, how do you know the same applies to any local dentist, because they told you, showed you? They have certificates, are registered with professional bodies, Well the same goes for dental clinics in Cancun and Mexico in general. Of course you have to research a medical / clinical establishment and the specialists prior to going or undergo any treatments, their qualifications, their background, the clinical facilities and work performed and previous patients. All which are readily available to be provided by any reputable dental clinic wanting to have you as a new patient (anywhere around the world)

Performed by a dental Implant trained specialist (Brand has not been established but one of the market leaders) this does not include any additional Implant related treatments like , Clinical evaluation and consultations, extraction(s), CT Scan Imaging, Bone graft, PRFG.
