My husband is a dentist and your post scared the heck out of me. I'm very glad you had good results but I would be hesitant to suggest others go outside of the US (I have assisted him while he corrected work done in other countries). One of the things that scares me is the fact you have no recourse...and, in spite of their credentials you have no way to verify. As far as 'dental insurance' I would not use that as a reason. Just please be careful, many countries do not have the same standards of care or the oversight with things such as suppli
es, medicines, cleanliness, or malpractice insurance that is required by dentists here in the US. Again, I am very, very happy that you had good results. Unfortunately I have seen the other side.
