Thailand Dental Holiday - Why Go to Thailand For Dental Care?
Thailand has become one of the globes epicenters for contemporary dental travel. It has become such a highlighted focus within the dental industry for many reasons, particularly the high quality dental services provided and the highly desirable tourism destinations on offer.
Thailand is an independent country located in South East Asia. It has excellent dental and medical infrastructure, provided by many large scale hospitals, with some being Joint Commission International accredited (this form of accreditation is discussed in further detail in later chapters). Thailand's rise to medical tourism fame came post 1997 when the national currency, the Thai Baht, severely devalued in price, causing a recession in the country, and forcing its health care providers to gear themselves towards international visitors rather than predominantly local Thai's.
Phuket, an island off the coast of Thailand, is a leading tourist destination and leading dental care destination in Thailand. Being favoured among tourists as the destination for less invasive procedures such as dental work and cosmetic procedures (larger, more serious operations such as dental implants are often carried out in the nation's capital, Bangkok), tourists are tempted by not only the high quality health care provided by Bangkok Hospital, Phuket, but as well by the glorious, amazing beach resorts on offer at nearby Patong Beach.
Thailand is where you can truly have a dental tourist holiday. Five star resorts along the beach are only a short taxi ride away from JCI accredited hospitals with fully comprehensive dental centre offering every possible dental treatment you could require. The blend of the highest levels of medical care combined with the unique Thai hospitality is very alluring to today's contemporary dental tourist.
Thailand is a logical location to go to for dental care. Whilst competing with other dental care locations such as Mexico and India, the draw card of being able to combine your dental work with a holiday set within a warm, tropical location is one of many benefits on offer.
Given the countries large gearing towards international tourists, there is often minimal to zero waiting time when booking in for dental care (this is another benefit!).
