He is US Trained, speaks fluent English. and Ecuador is a beautiful country with very friendly people. I was quoted $24,000 for the bone reconstruction, extractions, implants and crowns and bridges here. I paid around $7,000 altogether - that includes round trip air fare for my wife and I and BnB and eating out.Your price will vary based on hotel or AirBnB you chose.

It's called dental tourism and some insurance companies will cover it.

I went out of country as well. I was quoted here for 8 implants $35,000. In Costa Rica the cost was $17,000 including air, hotel, and food. I was able to bring my wife and get in some tourism between treatments,

Dr. Arnaldo Anglada, like Dr. Acosta above, is US trained, speaks English, etc. By the way, not only is your cost of dental treatment tax deductible, but your travel expenses as well. In order to give you a quote, they will ask for a recent panoramic x-ray of your mouth. Dr Anglada's website - Welcome to Costa Rica Dental Implants | Dr. Anglada
