How about one who had done over 9,000 implants and has taught the technique to other dentists? Getting what you pay for IS so important; yet this type of work doesn't need to be so outrageously expensive here in the U.S. It's a new paradigm, I know, yet you can get the same or better work done for your money elsewhere. It's not the paradigm I grew up with but I still like rock & roll.

Don't forget the anesthesiologists nor take lightly the "sterile stuff".......the anesthesiologist.....or nurse in another country...is more important to your staying alive than the carpenter replacing the hip.....and infection and or MRSA in the bone due to unregulated sterilization and sanitation standards would make it ALL the disaster of a lifetime. All because of trying to save a couple thousand dollars.
