Advantages of dental implants abroad :

– Cheaper treatment in abroad.
– Treatment is often combined with a holiday in abroad.

Disadvantages of dental implants abroad :

– A consultation should always be carried out prior to any surgical procedure, in the UK there is usually a ‘cooling off’ period after the consultation to allow time for the patient to make an informed decision. Without this cooling off time one may feel more pressure to proceed with implant surgery.

– Lack of aftercare and follow up from the implant surgeon. It is possible there will not be a UK based contact to offer aftercare.

– If any problems arise following the treatment, you would need to travel abroad to see your implant dentist.

– Dental implants abroad can be sold as part of a holiday package to entice people to buy. It is likely that the person selling the package is a sales representative and not a surgeon. Is important to meet your surgeon and understand the procedure before parting with any money or going ahead with any surgical procedure.
