About three quarters of American adults suffer from some form of dental problem.
It would be expected therefore that the majority if not all of them seek dental treatment at home. Ideally, dental insurance should make it easier to access dental treatment as the patient is relieved of a big part of the cost.
So in this setting where there is available dental treatment and dental insurance, why is it that still many Americans are having difficulty accessing dental treatment?
Well, the policies surrounding healthcare insurance are to blame. This is because the higher premiums placed on insurance have made it difficult to access affordable dental care especially following the institution of Obamacare in the health industry. Inability to afford dental insurance therefore leaves a significant number of Americans uninsured.
Affordable dental treatment with medical travel seems to offer the best of alternatives for uninsured Americans.
As a matter of fact, 400,000 Americans chose medical travel for dental procedures in 2012 and with this choice they experienced average cost savings of up to 70%.
The main reason that motivated such a massive group of people to believe in medical travel is the success that is connected with it. When an individual finds the right dental facility abroad, they can be assured of experiencing high quality dental care at very affordable costs. A simple way of identifying the right destination that matches the individual’s needs is to engage an authentic medical travel organization.International Med Retreat is a reputable medical travel organization that serves in helping individuals to find affordable dental procedures with dental tourism abroad.
Depending on the individual’s dental needs and personal preferences, one can choose from many of IMR’s facilities in Europe, Asia and South America.
IMR offers unique dental procedures such as the all on four dental implants which involves surgical fixation of a new set of non-removable teeth. By replacing the entire mouthful of teeth it covers for repair of broken teeth, replacement of missing teeth and simply restores a flawless smile. These affordable dental implants can be accessed at a cost of about $15,000 which compares with the cost of the same implant surgery in the U.S. ($25,000- 57,000).
Other commonly performed dental procedures such as dental bridges and dental veneers are similarly performed at affordable costs. These procedures prepare the patient for dental renovation for attachment of artificial teeth. It is also used for replacement of decaying teeth or teeth lost due to trauma and other periodontal diseases.
