What is a Dental Holiday?
The idea of a dental holiday was new to me four years ago. I recall asking my friends if they have ever heard of a dental holiday. No one in my immediate social circle had any idea what this was. The best guess was a dentist going vacation.
I still remember one week before sitting and talking with my family dentist that I’ve being visiting for over 30 years now. He was explaining to me why my insurance refused for the second time to cover my much needed dental work.
Little need to say, I was upset and asked my dentist if there are any other options available to me. He knew my financial situation and told me I could either put in on my credit card or travel abroad to have the work done. He called it a dental holiday.
Never even leaving the country, the latter of the two seemed unrealistic for me. But a week later I realized that something needed to be done and putting it on my nearly maxed out credit card was out of the question. So I started my research on dental holidays.
Simply stated, a dental holiday is where an individual travels to another country and gets their dental work done. This is mostly done to save money. However, another major benefit is taking a vacation at the same time.
The combination of the two is very convincing. Especially in America where most people go on one holiday every few years, a vacation is much needed.
This gives those people an important motivator to stop putting off that holiday and finally take action towards it.
I went for the first reason due to my financial benefits. However, when in Thailand I learned that there was so much more to it. Never being out of the country, I learned there is so much more to this world. I got the bug for traveling.
If the situation comes up where you need dental or health work and your insurance does not cover it, remember that you have options.
