Understanding your Costa Rica Dental Treatment Quote … What’s included what’s not!
People often ask what is included in the treatment quote and the simple answer is each clinic is different.
Some clinics, such as DaVinci’s Dental Care, include all as a package price which includes anticipated x rays, medications, and consultations for your proposed treatment giving you all pricing upfront.
Some only include the mayor procedures leaving out x rays medications, consultation and other treatments required, it may seem like the price is lower but when you add it all up at the end of the day all those incidentals have increased your treatment plan quote by 25% and sometimes higher.
Some clinics charge as a unit price based on procedures and their insurance code and then charge out for everything including simple stuff like a quick mouth rinse.
Understanding the treatment quote is essential to making sure your budget is correct, and in making sure there are no surprises on the back end of your treatment. The best way to avoid this is to give as much information to your dental clinic team as possible, limited dental information means limited estimate.
Here are some Tips to ensure you are getting the most comprehensive quote for your Dental treatment.
If you have X rays or a treatment plan from your current dentist then share it with your Costa Rica dental team this will provide you the benefit of 2 key points of information; A) a 2nd opinion B) a treatment by treatment price comparison.
Take the time to have a conference call with the Dentist, talk about anticipated procedures and the cost thereof, get a feel for their manner and expertise, this will help you feel excited and confident about your anticipated Dental Treatment.
Make sure you get your quote in writing and review it when you have your in clinic consultation before you start any procedures, this will ensure there are no surprises at the end of your treatment … of course other than your new perfect smile!
