Getting Dental implants in Sydney is costly. Therefore, many people are now opting to travel overseas to get cheap dental implants. It is important to remember that they are trying to save a few hundreds of dollars at the expense of their oral health. There are plenty of clinical websites online claiming to be of international standard and offering promises of 60% savings on safe, clean and cheap dental implants. Sometimes they go too far and provide additional packages of lodging and tour on those destinations that are very cheap when compared to the dental implants in Sydney. Unfortunately, few people are falling for these traps and are returning from those places after receiving low quality service. Things to know before travelling to other countries for dental procedures,

  • Dental implants often include surgery and hence require stringent infection control. Australia practices the best infection control standards when it comes to dentistry. However, one cannot expect the same from other places where the requirements on infection control may be less rigid.
  • Dental practitioners in most of the other countries who offer cheap treatments are not under the control of the high standard dental policies of Australia. The rules and regulations followed here ensure safety and excellence in care.
  • Recent studies claim that an invulnerable bacterium that is highly resistant to antibiotics has been found in Australia. This bacterium which is known as "NDM- 1" is reported to have originated from India. These infections were also seen in Japan and Pakistan.
  • A good Communication between the doctor and the patient is very important in a complicated procedure like Dental implants. The dentist may find it difficult to understand the needs of the patient because of the language difference. This makes the procedure more complicated.
  • It would be easier for patients having any problems with their treatment to seek any alterations if they were treated in their home city. Their medical rights are easier to protect and they have easy access to their dentist. Australian health funds do not cover any reparative procedure as they do on dental implants in Sydney.

These problems end up costing more on repair procedure than what original dental implant in Sydney cost. In order to have a successful dental implant procedure, it is advised to choose the dentist carefully.
