10 Recommendations for a Great Dental Holiday in Asia: 

1. If you  want  a good price quote before heading off  to  visit a  dentist in Manila or Bangkok  -  email  a  copy  of  your  dentist's  treatment   plan,  normal x-rays  or  panoramic  (if  available)  to   the  dentist  in Asia.  Better yet, send them to the Board Certified Asia Dental Association and let them find a certified dentist in your planned dental vacation destination who meets your requirements. 

The  more  information  the  dentist  has,  the  more accurate quote he can make.   Photos of  your teeth are  almost  as  good  as a  clinical analysis.   If none of the above are possible - don't  worry, x-rays  (except panoramic x-rays)   are  gratis  at  most  Association  member clinics. Panoramic x-rays for dental implants  are only  $35us  in many clinics in Manila or Bangkok.


2. Try to know  how  many crowns, bridges, dental implants etc. you require and  detail it all  in  the Asia dental clinic's Contact Form.  Advise of any health issues, allergies etc.   

3. Be sure to visit the Board Certified Asia Dental Association site to find a certified  dentist in Asia qualified to do the type of procedure(s)  you  are  seeking.  Unless  you  are  having  a  routine  cleaning,  drilling  or  filling  -   you  will  be  assured of  the best results  from  a  certified dentist  rather  than  a  less-skilled  general dentist in Asia. And the vast majority of those advertising for large treatment patients throughout Asia, Mexico and Eastern Europe are general dentists.

4. Get   a   free   estimate  and  dental  travel  advice  from  a   Board  Certified  Asia  Dentist  Association staff member.  BCAD  Assn.  Member  dentists rely  on the  staff  to  quote  foreign  patients in  English  and  schedule  appointments.   Most accept major credit cards, dollars or local currency (natch).

5. Note your proposed travel dates with BCAD to be sure the dentist  can  accommodate you. Dentists take vacations too – especially at year end in the Philippines and Chinese New Years in other countries.   The BCAD  staff  will  check  dentist  calendars,  forward to you  resumes,  estimates,  and  set   your appointments  for  you  without  cost. 

6. Obtain a passport – it usually takes 3 days to 4 weeks depending on the service you pay for. 



7. If renting a car be sure to purchase short-term auto insurance. Many BCAD’s will provide local transportation for clinic appointments.

8.  Ask the dentist for advice regarding clinic local accommodations. Transportation can be very slow getting across town in some cities due to traffic congestion.

9. If planning a dental vacation to Asia be sure to bring sun bloc, hat and sunglasses.

10.  Let a Board Certified Asia Dentist Patient Adviser take the uncertainty and guesswork out of selecting the right dentist for your specific requirements. You will be assured that you will be getting the right dentist fully accredited and certified for the procedures that you need.
