HOW TO MINIMIZE RISKS INVOLVED IN DENTAL SURGERY ABROAD 
 
Dental Treatment Abroad If you are thinking about having a dental surgery abroad, there are a few important things for you to consider. First and foremost, take note that every dental surgery, even just mere tooth extraction, has some risks – something might go wrong. There are more risks involved with more complicated dental surgeries, more so with procedures done abroad. Even in countries where there are strong medical regulations, there are still some cases of incompetent dental centers and inexperienced dentists botching surgeries. This does not, in any way, mean that dental surgeries abroad are dangerous. The danger involved when having one abroad is just the same in magnitude as when you have it in your country, or anywhere else. But there are ways that you can set the risk to a minimum, and here are some of them: Trust the word of mouth. Recommendations, assuming they are impartial and unbiased, can be very important. Ask people you know who have already tried dental surgery abroad, or people who know people. You can also check online forums and ask people about their experiences. Do not get yourself fooled only by some smart advertising. Make sure you do your research well before choosing a dental care center. Never settle with a dental surgery or surgeon just because it is affordable. The price should never be the sole deciding factor when looking for a dental treatment option. Use your common sense: if something looks a lot cheaper than they should be, start looking for another option. Also, make sure you check the price inclusions – you do not want to be met with unpleasant surprises along the way! Make sure to deal only with a dental surgeon and staff that can speak good English. They should have at least a good translator that can help explain the entire procedure. Remember that dental surgery involves the same amount of risk that other surgeries have, so make sure you are well-informed and the surgeon can answer all issues and questions. Make sure you see your surgeon before agreeing to an actual dental surgery. Many dental centers abroad arrange face-to-face consultations before the surgery is arranged. This set-up is ideal as it allows you to develop trust and ensures that your surgeon is well aware of the exact kind of treatment you need. Do a background check on your prospective surgeon. Your dental surgeon should have the right credentials and should be duly qualified to perform the dental surgery you need. They should be more than willing to provide this information with you, to gain your trust and your peace of mind. Check the kind of post-operative care available for you. Since you will have your dental surgery abroad, post-operative care becomes more significant. Note that most dental surgery, especially the more complicated ones, will require some future check-ups. Also, should you experience complications when you get back to your home country, it can be quite impractical to get back there for consultation. Check whether they have after-care treatment available in your home country. Also, check whether any post-operation that will be done should there be complications will be free of charge.
