Dental Tourism Nepal

What is dental tourism?

Dental tourism, a subset of medical tourism, involves individuals seeking dental care outside their local healthcare systems, coupled with a vacation. There is a rising number of foreigners choosing dental tourism holidays. Nepal has become a popular destination for foreign patients in recent times, particularly in dental care. Nepal’s accessibility and availability of quality assured and cost-effective dental treatment, amalgamated with its culture, heritage and the beauty of Himalayas have exponentially fostered the bloom of Nepal in “dental tourism.” Nepal is also budget-friendly in terms of airline tickets, visas, hotels, food, and car rentals.

What Is the Benefit Of Dental Tourism?

For the most part, the biggest benefit of dental tourism is the potential for cost savings on needed dental treatment. If you can get quality care and there is a potential for savings, then dental tourism can be worth it. Dental treatment is very expensive in most of the Western and American countries compared to this fraction of the world, they charge 7-10 times more. A dentist can charge $300-$400 for a dental filling in the USA and Europe while it costs only $20-$40 in Nepal. A root canal is $3,000 in the West but only $70-$100 in Nepal. With the idea of saving thousands of dollars and the quality at par with the international standards, it is worth a thought to fly to Nepal for good, affordable dentistry. However, do your research and smartly choose the best dental clinic in Kathmandu for your dental work.

Why is dental cost less in Nepal?

Dental cost is less in Nepal because labor and real estate cost less.
