Why is Dental Tourism it's chosen?

Image
Have you ever thought about choosing a dentist abroad to treat your teeth? Dental tourism, as we have often written in the blog, is a phenomenon that has taken hold for several years now. More and more people are willing to and one of the countries, most chosen by North Americans and Canadians, it's Costa Rica.  It is the desire of many patients, but a fatal mistake is to jump on the first foreign dentist who is online and blindly relies on his care. It is the first step to take: find dentists that operate according to the American Dental Association (ADA) regulations on hygiene, safety, and reliability of tools and materials used.  And Patients must be more cautious now during these times of Pandemia!! In times of crisis like these last nasty pandemic, patients are looking for quality dental services at lower prices than in their own country . In addition, there is the advantage of a holiday abroad, and in this, they see greater benefits: they combine dental care w

The trend is delivering estimates that includes all possible costs and maintain the quote as written in stone!

If you have this in your mind, you are probably looking for implantology and intend to find a good quote for 4-6 implants.  In this article, you will discover all the information you need to understand the costs of implantology and to choose the best proposal. The connection between price and type of installation Dental Implant sets can be compared to common screws; if we decided to buy some in a hardware store, probably at our request of the type: "I would like 6 screws", the shopkeeper would reply: "We have so many, what length, step, thickness, and quality do you need?" This problem is much more complex when it comes to titanium dental implants. In fact, each patient has different bone anatomy that requires the use of different types of implants. Some types are produced exclusively by certain companies and it is common that there are significant price fluctuations between different plants and manufacturing companies. This could be enough to understand t

Teeth Diseases: The 5 Pains You Should Never Try

Image
I wrote dozens of articles about the dental experience and I realized now that I forgot the first reason people go to the dentist! --- TOOTHACHE! So let's try to explain what can happen to you in your mouth if it goes wrong!  I think that's why you're documenting yourself on the web and reading this article. Basically, the types of toothache for which you go to the dentist in an emergency are 5: Pain from caries near a live nerve Pain from an abscess or acute apical periodontitis Gum pain The pains from cracks in the teeth Muscle pains Ok, two are not Toothache, but I have to write TOOTHACHE often, otherwise you will not find this article when you look on Google for Toothache and so I went ahead because I wrote toothache 4 times in 3 lines. Before talking about toothache (and we are 5 times in 4 lines), however, let's debunk a myth. CAVITIES DON'T HURT ... unless they are very large or that they create a hole in which food can enter,

Intraoral Fingerprint Scanner: what is it and how does it work?

Do you get the vomit reflex every time you get the impression? Can't stand that terrible taste of the impression material? Through this article, you will dive into the world of fingerprints, the new frontier of dentistry. The first question that arises is: "why to use something digital?"  The answer is the same one that you would give yourself asking yourself why to use a smartphone, a computer, digital photography, or GPS. All of us, whether we like it or not, we are catapulted into the digital age. Intraoral Fingerprint Scanner Digital technology has changed the dental profession so radically that in the not too distant future, the art of taking conventional impressions will no longer be so necessary. In fact, spoons for fingerprints and related materials are increasingly being replaced, especially in the most advanced dental practices, by the use of the scanner. Conventional Impressions vs. Intraoral Scanner Normally, when a traditional impression

Dental costs in United States are considerable?

That is why today many patients turn to Costa Rica, where dental care is of excellent quality, very fast times, and significantly lower prices; and for those who rely on our organization, airport shuttle and hotel accommodation can be free.  We believe it is important to rely on a real organization like Freer Dental Implant Center , not hidden behind only mobile numbers, with offices and a solid structure made up of people with proven organizational experience. For patients who contact us or visit us at our San José offices, I usually explain in detail all the essential and organizational aspects of care at the  Freer Dental Implant Center. Dentists: their professionalism, the studies and qualifications they've received, their experience, and their specializations. All operate in compliance with the strict hygiene and safety standards imposed by strict country regulations. Cures and treatments: How much they cost? What they involve, how and when they are carried out?

The Importance of a Complete Dental Service

Image
Today I would like to help you to think about the importance of a complete dental service. Often the information about the quality of services we rely on is poor and this causes us to lose huge amounts of time and mental energy. Our brain, in fact, cannot close that chapter but the "file" relating to the service we would like to obtain must remain open until perhaps, one day, we will come to terms with it. Today I'm on vacation because I decided with my wife to use the morning to buy a piece of furniture that she is asking me for a long time. -- Since I already know how it ends up in these cases I don't go directly to the store but, as a shrewd person, I call first to ask if they can provide me with that service. Answer (I swear I'm not kidding !!): "Look ... call our representative (???) so she will tell you what you want to know. I'll give you the number ... " The representative listened to my large explanation on the phone and, in an equ

Differences Between Professionals in Dentistry: Who Can Do What?

Image
Have you ever wondered what the difference is between a dentist and a dental technician? Or between a dentist and a dentist? In this article, we will reveal the real differences between the various figures operating in the dental field.   All the operators belonging to the world of dentistry have different roles and each of them has well-defined competencies and specializations. The patients, however, not working in the sector, are not always able to distinguish the differences between one professional figure and another, for many the word "dentist" contains many all the tasks related to dentistry. In this article, we try to clarify and get to know the people to whom we entrust our smile. The cases of false dentists who practice the profession without having the qualification and above all the skills are on the agenda. This abuse of the dental profession causes enormous risks for patients: postoperative complications, lacking hygienic-sanitary conditions, failure to ev
