The dental tourist in Colombia is a person who comes from various places in the world attracted by quality, professionalism and technology. In this South American country, all these elements are combined with competitive prices, which in some very popular treatments can be up to 60% lower.
That is why people from countries such as the United States, Canada, Mexico, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Germany and the United Kingdom arrive in Cartagena every week. They all come with the intention of obtaining the best treatments, with technology similar to that of their countries of origin, in a paradisiacal place.
Unbeatable advantages for the dental tourist in Colombia
Colombia offers many attractions to its visitors. First of all, there is the fact that it is a nation with a privileged geographical location. Located in the north of South America, this country is the only one in the sub-region that has coasts on the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. This places it in an equidistant location from all continents and most countries.
Its main cities, such as Bogotá, Cartagena, Medellín, Cali and Barranquilla, are hyper-connected cities with the main air routes and the largest airlines in the world. Getting to the country is extremely cheap from practically anywhere in the world because the flight offer is permanent and abundant throughout the year.
Within the territory, Colombia has become one of the safest places to visit. In recent years, the State has developed a series of assertive policies to limit the action of criminal groups. This security is particularly palpable in metropolises such as Cartagena, which have a wide tourist vocation.
Another important advantage is the hotel infrastructure. Cities such as Cartagena offer a range of accommodation that adapts to any type of budget. Additionally, as this city has become an important dental health destination, it has hotels strategically located near the main dental clinics. That is, the patient only has to walk from their place of accommodation to receive their treatment.
In Cartagena, neighborhoods such as Bocagrande offer an entire ecosystem of services designed for dental tourists in Colombia. Within a few blocks, visitors will find the best clinics, such as Sonrisa Perfecta Dental, good hotels, restaurant services, banks and executive transportation. In other words, everything necessary to make your experience safe, calm and above all pleasant.
Most requested treatments by dental tourists in Colombia
Generally, dental tourists in Colombia come with a more or less clear vision of what they need to improve or transform their smile. However, taking into account the statistics of the Sonrisa Perfecta Dental spa clinic, there are some procedures with greater demand. One of the most notable is smile design, which is a comprehensive, state-of-the-art procedure that involves several treatments.
These vary depending on the patient’s initial condition. It usually involves the placement of dental veneers, crowns, implants and laser teeth whitening. In some severe cases, bone or membrane grafting is required to support the placement of the implants. The end result is a dazzling smile, highly aesthetic and in the style of the great movie stars. This is what is known as the Renaissance Hollywood® Smile.
Other individual treatments that dental tourists in Colombia seek are dental implants, veneers, invisible orthodontics (Invisalign) and whitening with LED or UV rays. These are procedures that can be found in their countries, but which can be obtained in Colombia at affordable prices. Additionally, many take advantage of their time there to get to know one of the most beautiful territories in the world.
