Dental holidays or Dental travel -Money savers

Dental holidays…

 

Crisis propagates all over the world. The economy system is not stable. You never know what might happen tomorrow. As a result people are desperately trying to save more money. In the same time everyone’s body needs remain the same. We have to take care of our health, especially of our dental health. But when the time to act comes many of us have doubts about the real necessity of treating minor dental defects, considering the high prices of this kind of services. The solution to this problem is very simple, in fact, and it is known as dental holidays..

Today the dental travel or dental holidays and the crisis become closer one to another. These two elements of people’s world act together, even if seem to be total enemies. The first one saves money while the second makes them to be lost. But the popular dental travel is only the result of the recently appeared crisis. The dental travel , as a part of the medical travel , has existed for many years, of course. However the number of persons who began to practice it increases significantly. And the reason is obvious. Dental travel during crisis saves more money and allows you to travel abroad and to have a great time.

The formula is very simple. Dental work costs in your native country should be higher than costs of the same treatment procedure in the country you want to travel plus additional costs. The last ones include the costs of the departure itself, hotel rooms, food, some extra activities like visiting well known places in the country you travel. In case you live in the US or Western Europe it is very convenient to treat your teeth in Eastern Europe or India. On average, costs in dental travel countries are 70% less than in the UK and US.

Here are some examples.
According to Dr Seby , a UK returned dentist from India of Facets, Kochi , “A dental filling in the US or UK costs about $300-400 while in Eastern Europe or India it costs only $20-40. The treatment of your root canal will take $3000 in the United States and only $100-200 in Hungary, for example. A denture costs about $1000 in the UK and $200 in India. As you can see the difference is big, especially when it comes to treat many teeth.”

Despite the crisis and being developing countries, dental holiday destinations offer high quality treatment. The cost of dental care is low in these countries because of the low cost of infrastructure. The quality of the treatment is however comparable to what is offered in the West. In fact, some dental holiday destinations form part of the Europe and the European Economic Area. Dentists in these countries are bound by the same regulations that are in force in the rest of Europe.

It’s a different matter when the crisis causes the recession of the number of local dental clinics. In this case people have to travel abroad to take the necessary care. Usually this kind of journey is not as convenient and pleasant as the one described above, especially when quick help is needed. There are cases when the necessary type of treatment is not available and the person has no other choice than to access the help of abroad dentists. Being done in a hurry this treatment creates a lot of risks. However it also represents a way that increases the dental tourism during the crisis.

We can notice that the dental travel  has two big advantages. The first one are the much smaller prices in the developing countries, even if the quality is usually the same. The second one is the combination between the dental treatment and a nice and relaxing holidays . Considering these two we realize why the dental travel increases its popularity while the crisis is developing. Everyone has the chance to kill two birds with one stone ..

Dental Implants: Procedural Overview at Facets Dental Practice -Kochi

Dental Implants: Procedural Overview at Facets dental practice Kochi

  Compared to a routine dental filling or crown (cap), replacement of a missing tooth or teeth with implants is a more complicated and lengthy process. It will take several phases. A periodontist or an oral surgeon will place the implant surgically. Then we will place the tooth or visible portion.

Phase One In phase one of the treatment, the specialist evaluates the position, suitability, and strength of the bone that will surround the implant. This information will determine the length and width of the implants and how many implants will be necessary to replace the missing teeth. Impressions of all your teeth will be taken for study models in order to design the shape of the tooth or teeth to be implanted. A surgical guide will be made to indicate to the surgeon where the implants should be placed.

Phase Two Phase two consists of the surgical procedures to place the implant in the bone. A local anesthetic is given, and the gum tissue is lifted to expose the implant site. The implant is placed into the bone and the gum is closed over it. You will not see the implant while integration with the bone takes place. The integration takes 4 to 6 months. After this time, the site is opened again and a healing collar will be threaded into the implant. This will guide the tissue into a shape that is needed for the future crown(s). The time that the healing collar needs to be in place will vary from person to person, but will be at least several weeks.

Phase Three Phase three will begin once the tissue shape is sufficient. In this phase, specific attachments and components will be fitted to the implant. The implant components are similar in function to the wall or plaster anchors used to hang pictures on drywall. The healing collar is removed. Implant transfer copings, analogs, and other items are used to take an impression of the site. The healing collar is then put back on. The impressions and implant components are sent to the laboratory for fabrication of implant posts and temporary acrylic crowns. When the temporary crown or bridge is returned from the laboratory, the healing collar is removed and the implant attachments are fastened to the implant. The temporary crowns are then seated and adjusted. They will be held in place by temporary cement or with screws, depending on your certain situation. We will explain the advantages and disadvantages of each in your particular case at the time you decide to have the implant. Temporary crowns are placed because the bone that supports and surrounds the implant must be given the opportunity to be put into function gradually. Implant techniques dictate that the implants be slowly brought into biting function. This means you will be returning several times to have more acrylic added to the temporary crown. After the implant and temporary crown have been in biting function for a few months, the final crown(s) will be fabricated and cemented or screwed into place.

Maintaining All Your Teeth To keep your implants and your natural teeth healthy and functional for the longest time possible, clean the implant and your other teeth daily, as instructed. You will also need to come in for dental hygiene recare appointments at a 3- to 4-month interval. You have invested time and money in these state-of-the-art tooth replacements. Maintaining them as instructed will give you the best chance of success. We feel that the benefits of replacing teeth with implant-supported crowns and bridges far outweigh the inconvenience of the long start to finish time. This is especially true when the teeth on either side of the implant are sound, unfilled teeth that would not otherwise require dental treatment. Implants help you preserve your natural tooth structure.
