Great Prices and Great Service at Wellness Dental

by PlacidWay | Wellness Dental Group

Tina found that it became increasingly difficult to find affordable dental providers in her neighborhood of northern California and started looking elsewhere. “When it became clear that my dental issues were too expensive to resolve in the United States, I started researching possibilities for dental care a outside of the states. I ended up choosing Costa Rica because of the fact that it is known to be one of the more stable countries in Central America. In one of my searches on the Internet, I came across Wellness Dental Group and started learning about Dr. Barquero’s qualifications.”

Tina is among a growing number of individuals accessing the Internet for affordable, experienced and effective dental and health care abroad. PlacidWay, an international medical provider and medical tourism portal based in Denver, Colorado, offers information and resources to such customers. “We’re happy to be able to provide resources and information regarding treatments, procedures, and accredited facilities offering expert, experienced and affordable dental care,” says Pramod Goel, CEO and Founder of PlacidWay.

Dental Cosmetics in Latin America

by PlacidWay | Dental Cosmetic Costa Rica

The growing popularity of dental cosmetic tourism is rising at an equal pace as the cost of such care in the United States. Regardless of what brings you to the dentist in the first place – whether it’s cavities, whitening, bridgework, root canals, or replacing crowns, dental cosmetic surgery and procedures are expensive. Often, the wait time for such procedures in the US is long and patients must endure discomfort while waiting for openings. Take into consideration the fact that many people don’t carry dental insurance, and that there are limits to what dental insurance will cover, and it’s no surprise that many consumers are looking elsewhere for their dental or cosmetic dental needs.

One of the most popular and beautiful destinations for dental procedures is Costa Rica. Costa Rica is a land of gorgeous jungle terrain, pristine white beaches and more activities in different environments . Costa Rica is ideally situated between the Pacific Ocean to the west and the Caribbean to the east, and offers visitors lush, endless beauty.

Costa Rica has rightfully earned a reputation as one of the best tourist destinations in the world for excellent care and facilities in the fields of plastic and cosmetic surgery, dental implants and dentistry. Medical travelers to Costa Rica may enjoy as much as a 75% savings on surgical procedures over prices generally charged in the United State

Colorado Woman’s Dental Experience In Costa Rica

by Jan C. | Wellness Dental | PlacidWay

Jan, a Colorado native of 49 years and a Greeley resident for six,  found herself in a difficult situation after she was figuratively “fired” from by her third dentist. Jan suffers from trypanophobia, defined as an irrational fear of medical procedures, and that includes injections, tools and syringes that are commonly found in a dental office. Studies have found that roughly 10% of Americans suffer from this phobia recognized in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM-IV) in the early 1990s. Unfortunately, the condition made it extremely difficult for Jan to receive the dental care and supervision she so desperately needed.

“I suffer from severe trypanophobia and am terribly afraid of injections, needles, pain or any situation involving those. Unfortunately, I’ve received numerous dental procedures which, inexplicably, had to be repeated, sometimes several times, with the result that pain never stopped following treatment. I saw another dentist and endodontist who informed me I would need to have all the dental work repeated over again. Naturally, I was disheartened.”

After experiencing repetitive dental procedures and extreme costs for those treatments in the United States, Jan was understandably concerned about finding a dentist who could deal with her dental problems that didn’t lead her into bankruptcy. After being informed that the latest round of first phase treatment for her dental issues would cost a minimum of $11,000, Jan took to heart stories told by her friends of their dental treatment excursions to other countries.
