How to avoid your dental implants going sideways when you get home from your dental vacation.
Dental tourism today faces new challenges according to Ms. Carla
Helena Sanchez the new Director of Certified Dentists Internationale.
“The expanding dental tourism industry is in danger of getting a
black eye with many dental tourism websites and dental travel brokers promoting
any dentist who is willing to pay their annual membership fees.
The websites cannot possibly screen the credentials of the 1,000’s
of dentists some agencies claim to list. Consumers are often getting
shoddy work from general dentists anxious to bag lucrative treatments by
misrepresenting their qualifications to unsuspecting dental tourists.
The problem for the consumer is that over 85% of dentists on the
planet are only general dentists - not formally trained or certified for the
kind of advanced dentistry that most dental tourists require.
The American Dental Association notes…”most dental tourism takes
place in developing nations (Mexico, The Philippines, Thailand, India etc) and
most of these countries do not restrict general dentists to performing only
general dentistry" (cleanings, drilling and pulling teeth.) In the
West, consumer protection laws prevent less-trained general dentists from
attempting dental implants, root canals, oral surgery and other complicated
procedures.
Ms. Sanchez continued: “Certified Dentists Internationale (CDI)
endeavors to select only the very best board certified dentist applicants to
join our association – we don’t approve
every dentist applicant who wants to join us. We are very selective and do our
due diligence on behalf of the patients.
Our Certified Dentist International members are among the very
best with many being Presidents of their dental associations, dental specialist
college professors, hospital maxillo-facial surgical department chiefs, award
winners and distinguished lecturers at dental conventions.
In America general dentists often play fast and loose with
the term "cosmetic dentist" as the field is not an ADA recognized
specialty field and not taught in dental colleges as it is in Mexico and other
countries.
Certified Dentists Internationale (CDI) is the new parent entity
of the recently combined Board Certified Mexico Dentist Association (BCMD) and
Board Certified Asia Dental Association (BCAD). The merger took place early in
2015 after winning the approval of their respective directors located in Mexico
City and Manila’s Global City Philippines.
Certified Dentists
Internationale staff assists potential dental travel patients select the right
dentist for their case, gets free estimates, resumes, referrals, gives dental
tourism advice and sets appointments without cost to the patient. And the
patient doesn't lose sleep worrying about inadvertently ending up in a general
dentist's chair for their dental implants or oral restoration.
Carla H. Sanchez former Presidente’ of BCMD will assume a
Directorship in the new entity and will be responsible for overseeing the
growth of Certified Dentists Internationale.
