Cost of tooth whitening in Poland

Tooth whitening for one dental arch (i.e. either the upper or lower set of teeth) in Poland will typically cost around the £100 mark. It is quite possible that you may encounter cheaper prices, but be very wary of any that waver around £20 or more below this average, as these costs may represent inferior treatment, which can cause all kinds of problems in both the long and short run. This is not to say such prices are invariably bad, but you must double-check the qualifications of the dentist and the accreditation of the clinic if you are interested in such costs – it may be that you end up with an excellent deal. Even these average prices are excellent when compared with those of the UK, where you will generally be expecting to pay over £500 for both arches. It is easily possible to arrange cheap flights and accommodation for far less than the difference, and therefore make a decent saving. Be sure you find out which of the two methods will be used, as a simple scale-and-polish job may not prove worth leaving the UK for, unless you are seeking the holistic medical tourism experience – and a brief holiday as well.

Cost of porcelain veneers in Poland

Of all the cosmetic dentist treatments detailed here, you should be most chary when considering a porcelain veneer treatment. This is because of the delicate nature of the procedure and the potential long-term dangers. Typically you can get porcelain veneers fitted in Poland from a extremely low price, ranging on average from about £200 – £250, which is so low in comparison to not only UK prices (around £500) but also prices in many other countries that you should only consider anything lower if you are absolutely sure that the accreditations (and any patient references) you have researched guarantee a successful and lasting result. With cheap flights and accommodation you will not entirely eat up this general price difference, so you can make some savings by travelling to Poland for this treatment. Be sure to find out how much subsequent maintenance check-ups will cost, but it is more than likely that they will be negligible in the UK.


Cost of gum contouring in Poland

At the right clinic in Poland you can have a high-quality gum contouring treatment done for less than £100 (although as always be careful with your selection of the doctor and clinic!). This is one of the greatest savings you can make on any dental treatment done abroad, as typically the same procedure will cost over £400 in the UK. The prices will vary depending on whether you have laser or scalpel treatment, but the latter will often be even cheaper.

Dentist Specialisation in Poland

Dentist training is rigorous in Poland, with three years of study followed by a further two years studying under a professional dentist. Although many treatments are covered by this standard course, if you are after a particular specialist you should make sure they have undertaken an appropriate specialisation course. Usually Polish dentists will take one of these additional courses from the Centre for Medical Postgraduate Education (CMPE), but if in your research you are quoted another institution, be sure to verify this before committing to the clinic. Your chosen Polish dentist may even have undertaken some specialist training in the UK, but again you will have to make sure all this information checks out before you proceed.
