hi mf
sorry to hear about your terrible experience. unfortunately, this happens all too often

i am sure there are some excellent dentists abroad and the low fees must make this approach very appealing
however it does not matter how cheap it was if it doesn't work or has been done badly, i have seen one women who had 18 implants placed of which 15 had failed and the other 3 had to be removed as they were in the wrong place
if you want to go abroad for treatment do your research
find out what implants are they using...
what qualifications they have...
how many implants have they placed...
what their failure rate is (don't believe anyone who tells you 0)...
what lengths of sterility do they go to
can you talk to some one who's had the treatment
how long they guarantee their work & what happens if things go wrong
how long they have been in business at that location etc...
Hope that helps
Nick
