Q: Dental care abroad
asked by: clair100300500 on February 22nd, 2009

After many years of neglecting my teethes, I ended up in a situation where I could hardly chew my food. It also caused damaged to my digestion system,
All of this because of my stupid dentist fears since I was a girl.

When I realized I can't hold it any longer I went to see couple of dentists here in NW London. I got the estimates, both of them above 20,000 pounds. A friend of mine told me about dental care outside the UK. At first I doubted it but going online .I got few price offers that were about 30-40 percent of what they asked me here.

In a couple of weeks, I've arranged it all including flights and hotel. Accompanied by my friend we went to Turkey for two weeks of treatment. The dental care was very professional and I even managed to overcome my dentist fear. After that, I ended up having a shiny new mouth, did some site seeing and all that at less than half of what I needed to pay in London.

Quite recommended

I do not agree. I have met many people who fly to eastern countries and they are very happy, Germans , norwegians, and English. Visit the website and see dentalpoland.com , and really trust me: those ones I have met so far were very happy about dental care which was in their offer.

Just make sure you ask about what they use in root canals especially. There are places in this world where arsenic is still used in dentistry. And I really should clarify because you really can't trust the US system to do right by the patient all the time either. Our state dental boards know that this formaldehyde crap is being used, that the science does not support its safety, that the FDA rejected it in 1993 since they did not prove it was safe and they still turn a blind eye until someone is seriously harmed and knows to report it to them. Then they deal with only that dentist and that patient. Nothing is done to protect the next patient that sits in that same dentist's chair. If you didn't go to the website, you should and watch the video on the front page.

I do not know what types of clinics you mean as the one I go to uses the most innovative methods. I do not care what you think about Poland and their methods but what I can say is :go to the page and see it yourself. Poland may be far but not backwards and doctors do not use rusty equipment there!
