Why British People Treat Teeth In Poland?
Why Poland?
Main dental travel directions in Europe are Poland and Hungary. Because Poland has better plane connections with UK, mainly due to Polish immigration, it is cheaper to travel there. Moreover Polish dental surgeons are considered far more better specialists than their Hungarian colleagues. I have traveled to Poland to have my implants done in January 2009. I'm satisfied, healthy and have saved more than 1000 GBP on whole surgery.
Cheaper?
Yes, it is cheaper. When I have compared prices of single implant surgery it shocked me. It is cheaper to travel to foreign country by plane, stay there for few days, go sightseeing and have implant done than do it in UK. Of course: bigger the surgery - more You save. For example in Poland You will pay about 1500 GBP for two implants, when UK price is 50% higher. Also small treatments are opportunity to save money. For example best teeth whitening treatment cost 187 GBP there. In UK You have to pay more than 250 GBP for this simple treatment. If You are wondering if this is legal, don't worry. Poland has entered the European Union since May 1st 2004. From then on, whoever is under the treatment in this country receives the same expense return from National Health Service as if he was treated in his own country - The Highest European Court (AZ: c 120/95, C 158/96)
Better?
Polish dental travel success is based on the fact, that their health-care institutions are well-equipped with valuable, high-end medical equipment but due to the lower staff salaries in Poland they can offer experienced doctors and a very high standard of services for reasonable prices. In best clinics like Indexmedica in Cracow (featured in BBC programme) all dentists have finished a postgraduate study in a narrow discipline of dentistry, this is why we are able to deliver the highest level of treatment. Their highly qualified medical staff, most advanced equipment and materials to work with make the most favourable conditions to offer a good health care. By offering good, experienced doctors for reasonable prices they came to a new definition of dental services. Also they use best quality materials imported from Germany, Switzerland, Japan and USA.
Also standards are high in Poland. Before the procedure patients, as well as their accompanying persons, can rest and relax in the waiting room, read some new magazines, have some delicious coffee or tea or use the computer with internet access. Children, who come with their parents, can play under our staff's careful supervision while their parents have the appointment. Dental clinics provide free packages, accomodation in best hotels and taxi from airport. Be sure that You will be treated there as very important guest all the time.
