Catherine's Journey to a Beautiful Smile in Costa Rica

I’d like to share the inspiring story of Catherine Brenner, a 61-year-old retired teacher from Bonita Springs, who recently transformed her smile with dental veneers in Costa Rica. 🦷✨

Facing prohibitively high dental costs in the US, where quotes ranged from $1,000 to $2,500 per tooth, Catherine started looking for more affordable options abroad. After thorough research and with the help of PlacidWay, she discovered that Costa Rica offered high-quality dental care at much lower prices, ranging from $250 to $600 per tooth.

With careful planning and coordination through PlacidWay, Catherine traveled to Costa Rica and was welcomed warmly by the clinic staff. The advanced technology and professionalism of the dental team impressed her, and the veneer placement procedure went smoothly.

Now, Catherine is back home with a beautiful, radiant smile that has significantly boosted her confidence. She is more social, attending events and reconnecting with friends and former students, and she feels that her new smile has truly changed her life.

Catherine's story highlights the possibilities and benefits of seeking dental treatment abroad for those facing high costs in their home country. It’s a testament to the quality of care available and the positive impact it can have on one’s life.

Wonderful fairy story.

The only problem is that Catherine's friend who went on a similar journey had a terrible time.

After getting mugged in the street, and painful treatment, she returned home having to get the work redone at horrendous expense - and lucky that she could find a dental surgeon who was prepared to take on such a sad case.

The woes of medical tourism are well documented -- just ask Dr Google.

Besides-- I thought that shilling was frowned upon by HU???😎
