When it comes to healthcare, costs always vary depending first on your location, country or
State. This is because of a myriad of reasons which include;
- Cost of living in that State
- The economy of the Country
- Fees paid by clinics for their space
- The doctor
While the cost of living in certain states might be low, others could be quite high. Developing
countries also have more expensive healthcare as almost nothing is manufactured within their
State. Also, a doctor’s level of expertise contributes most times to the charged amount of
healthcare. Most doctors charge by the hour.
The rate of dental tourism has increased worldwide because of the significant difference in cost
of treatments. Countries such as Israel have witnessed a wave of medical tourism. Statistics show
that as many as 3.45 million foreigners visit Israel annually and a steady one percent are medical
tourists. Over the years this number of medical tourists has doubled.
It is not just the affordable health care that pulls people, but the appeal of a country with such
rich history. After all, what’s not to like about getting cheaper healthcare, without sacrificing
quality and gaining the experience of a lifetime. In Israel, patients testify that the cost of dental
care and the dental implant is less than half of what they are usually charged in the United States.
Israel dentists can offer advanced dentistry ranging from simple tooth extractions to complex
oral reconstructive surgery. Below is an overview of the estimated price for dental procedures in
Israel;
Extraction of teeth- ranging from 350NIS to 2000NIS, you can get a damaged or a broken tooth
removed. The price also depends on the difficulty and surgery involved.
Dental Implants- the average price of an implant in Israel is about 6000NIS this is an equivalent
of about $1700. In the United States, this price is tripled for the entire process.
All-on- 4 implants per jaw- The cost for this procedure is about 47,284NIS per jaw, that is about
$13,513. In the United States, we are looking at an almost tripled cost of $40,000
Save your smile and visit Israel for quality dental care that costs much less. Language is no
barrier because doctors now run clinics that cater specifically to English, Russian, French or
Anglo dental tourists.
