dental tourism
Dental tourism (also called dental vacations or commonly known as dental holidays in Europe) is a subset of the sector known as medical tourism. It involves individuals seeking dental care outside of their local healthcare systems and may be accompanied by a vacation. Dental tourism is growing worldwide:〔http://www.deloitte.com/assets/Dcom-unitedStates/Local%20Assets/Documents/us_chs_MedicalTourismStudy%283%29.pdf〕 as the world becomes ever more interdependent and competitive, technique, material, and technological advances spread rapidly, enabling providers in "developing countries" to provide dental care at significant cost savings when compared with their peers in the developed world.
== Reasons for travel ==
While dental tourists may travel for a variety of reasons, their choices are usually driven by price considerations.〔("Cross-border care in the south: Slovenia, Austria and Italy" ) WHO Report on patient mobility (retrieved 19 October 2007)〕〔("Catherine McNerney and Desmond Gillmor" ) Experiences and perceptions of rural women in the Republic of Ireland: studies in the Border Region (retrieved 19 October 2007)〕 Wide variations in the economics of countries with shared borders have been the historical mainstay of the sector. Examples include travel from Austria to Hungary, Slovakia, Slovenia and Romania,〔("Cross-border care in the south: Slovenia, Macedonia, Austria and Italy" ) WHO Report on patient mobility (retrieved 19 October 2007)〕 from the US and Canada to Mexico, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Peru, from the Republic of Ireland to Northern Ireland, Hungary, Poland, Turkey and Ukraine, and from Australia to Thailand and other countries of South-East Asia. While medical tourism is often generalized to travel from high-income countries to low-cost developing economies, other factors can influence a decision to travel, including differences between the funding of public healthcare or general access to healthcare.〔
