    Hi all - Any information you can provide here would greatly be appreciated.

    I need severe dental work done and I have been saving for the costs.

    I was wondering if anyone here has ever gone abroad for Dental treatment either for one day implants or the traditional implants and if they could advise of the general costs and there opinions on the quality of the treatment. Is there a difference between the 2 methods besides the time?

    I have seen a specialist in County Cork who quoted me €15,000 for the work in three installments and 11,500 if I pay up front.

    I require 4 extractions, 4 implants and 2 crowns.....

    Any opinions, advice etc. I can provide additional information if you request it.

    See here, read these carefully particularly read the thread where I and the other dentists get dogs abuse about saying dental tourism is a bad idea until the photos start appearing. I have another half dozen cases since then I must upload. See the thread where a lady ask the same quastion as you, does not listen to the advice and then a few weeks later returns with a destroyed mouth.

    I dont care where you get your work done (I really dont), but as I am sure the op has discovered this kind of treatment takes 8-10 visits over a period of maybe 6 months. So factor in 5 return flights, 20 days in hotels, food, entertainment, time off work etc. Usually the tourism clinics say sure lets just compress the proper treatment, healing times into a couple of weeks a few months apart, no provisional phase, no checks, no time to see if aesthetics work or the bite works and no aftercare except with maybe someone who didnt do the treatment. If dentistry was best done in a week then we would all do it in a week. Its not that simple, I wish it was and its tempting to think it is espically combines with a perceived bargain.

    Good quality dental treatment and a good service is expensive. Poor quality dental treatment is even more expensive if you have to get it redone, take the 11.5k you have been quoted and add 10k

    Would you go abroad to have a hip replaced? If not why is having dental implants inserted into your bone any different?

    Immediate loading of dental implants can work but you cannot plan on it, you can only tell at the time of surgery. There is enough unpredictability without introducing more for the sake of a few months. I do immediate loading but only under ideal conditions.

    Central Sopron...this I bordering on shilling, we know whats important to you. There are good and bad dentists everywhere, but unlike a walk on the street you can control the risks buy going to an operator that is well qualified (this is specialist treatment) and with whom you can get recourse and aftercare when small things do inevitably go wrong.
