Find out how Ogg, from Brooklyn, saved about $66,000 on his dental surgery.
Pretty convenient for international patients, Dental Cosmetics is surrounded by hotels and restaurants, with everything within walking distance. It's not expensive and its also very safe, close to the beaches, and with less traffic.
We try to make it more personable, more client-oriented, feel them at home. I don't expect it to be an easy decision to leave your country to get a treatment like this, it's understandable that the cost difference is important, but also the quality. We try to make the best combination out of it all, not have to decrease the quality but don't have to increase the prices.
We have a full team of specialists, we have a full range of dental procedures, starting with the most basic dentistry for cleanings, a periodontist for gum and bone treatment. We have an oral maxillofacial surgeon, that can treat everything from a tooth extraction to the most complex dental implant procedure. I'm a prosthodontist so I work in areas of cosmetic dentistry and restorative work, I think we have every area of Dentistry covered.
Most of the patients will come in and you have got to put yourself in their place make them feel welcome, in a friendly environment, making sure if needed we can go and walk in from the hotel to here, that service and that familiar feel is really what continues to drive patients coming back.
An important part of dental tourism is to be able to provide quality of services at an affordable cost, but you need to be able to do that in a specific amount of time. We have learned that through technology you are able to do things in a more predictable way. The CT scan unit is definitely one of the best tools we have, honestly, we don't remember how we did things before the 3D Scan.
The second part, it's very important to have a lab that understands the patient's needs and that can deliver the quality of work that we can expect in the timeframe that we need it. We have a CAD / CAM unit that allows us to design your crowns or veneers digitally a machine will manufacture them. Having again all this technology allows us to do quality work at an affordable price for a specific amount of time.
