There are many factors that go into this but it mainly comes down to you saving on the cost of labor. Porcelain veneers in Colombia are a third the price because mostly everything else here is a third the price. Your dollar goes a lot further here.
Better dental care in Colombia than back home
Please understand that cheaper does not mean lesser quality. In fact, you should expect the same, if not better, quality of dental care than you’re used to back home. Learn how to take care of your veneers here.
Most Colombian dentists (like ourselves) use the exact same top materials and dental manufacturers as dentists in North America and Europe. We proudly use BioHorizons, Microdent, Zimmer, and Straumann.
Our dentists are also just as educated, qualified, and experienced as dentists back home.
Get porcelain veneers in Colombia faster than you’d back home
Most Colombian dentists will turn around porcelain veneers much faster than dentists in the US or Canada. Most have their own labs or work very closely with one that will prioritize your work over local work.
This is done to make the turn around time very short, enough for the porcelain veneers to be done in 2-7 days depending on the quantity and other work needed. Back home this process could take weeks, if not months.
Hotels and flights are cheap
Unlike going to Turkey or Thailand, flights to Colombia are a lot cheaper and more frequent. There are many direct flights to Colombia, and if there is a connection, it will most likely happen in Florida or Georgia.
We, like many dentists in Colombia, will also gladly pick you up from the airport, check you into your hotel, and take you to your first appointment for free. For many, this will be their first time in Colombia, maybe even abroad. Having a friendly face greet you once you arrive will make things easier.
Hotels are also high quality and inexpensive, again everything is about a third the price. Most Colombian dentists will have a list of recommended nearby hotels that their international patients frequent. Get a hold of this list while you’re doing your research. Airbnbs and hostels are also popular.
It’s a short flight and there’s no jet lag
Not only are the flights cheap, they are short. This is in stark contrast to other dental tourism countries like Turkey or Thailand. You can wait a full day just getting there.
Colombia is a lot shorter of a flight and because it’s in South America, the time zone changes are not that significant. Depending on the time of year, Colombia is either EST or PST as they do not observe daylight savings time.
Not having to battle jet lag will make your days in between procedure sessions be more enjoyable.
Colombia is a phenomenal country to visit
While you’re down in Colombia, you will have a few free days to explore the sites while the lab is busy custom making your porcelain veneers. During this time you are available to get to know one of the most beautiful, enchanting countries on this planet.
Cartagena is a popular tourist destination on the Caribbean coast of the country, with great resorts, beaches, and historic districts. Bogota is the vibrant capital in the mountains and Cali and Medellin are major cities in Colombia.
You will have no problem finding something exciting to do while you’re down here. The local food here is delicious as well!
