Don’t let bad teeth ruin your day, or your health. Even if you don’t have dental insurance, you can find affordable dental providers and facilities to help you get back on track, and you can do it while you’re traveling for business or pleasure. Whether you’re headed to Europe, South America or Asia, world class dental clinics can help you out with your oral hygiene and care.

Traditional and cosmetic dentistry is a field that include such services such as:

• Repairing rough spots or chips
• Filling cavities
• Filling gaps between teeth
• Bleaching teeth for a whiter, brighter smile
• Covering and protecting broken teeth with porcelain crowns
• Improving dental health and function through bonding, bridges, and dental implants

Children, teenagers, and adults may benefit from a wide variety of cosmetic dental procedures. Procedures and treatments from braces to extending crowns and dental implants benefit those who have suffered tooth injury or loss due to genetics, disease processes or poor oral hygiene. 

Cosmetic dentistry can be expensive, depending on the procedure. In the United States for example, implants may cost $1,200-$2,000 apiece. Bonding may cost $300-$600 a tooth, and crowns may cost anywhere from $800-$1,000.

Dental professionals and clinics like High Tech Dental in Costa Rica, Alfadent in Cancun, Mexico or Twoj Dentysta in Croatia offer the same services for quite a bit less. For example, dental implants in India range from $750 to $1,200 and porcelain or metal crowns or bridges cost only $125 to $300 each. Travelers to Argentina can save up to 70% on dental procedures, and in Europe, travelers to Croatia will pay roughly $1,000 for dental implants and $430 for bleaching or teeth whitening procedures.
