My Manchester private dentist quoted £34,000 for both arches. NHS couldn't help — six-month waiting list just for a check-up. Tressari connected me with Picasso Dental and I paid £10,000 for the lot including a fortnight in a serviced apartment.
Saved £24,000 compared to Manchester private quote · All-on-4 dental implants (both arches)

Harley Street wanted £17,000. I got the same E.max veneers at BFC Dental for £5,000 including a week in Bangkok. Best decision I ever made.
Saved £12,000 compared to Harley Street quote · 16 porcelain veneers

Budapest is two-and-a-half hours from Birmingham. UK-trained dentist, identical materials, a third of the price. Flew back to Birmingham that same week.

Birmingham · Helvetic Clinics, Budapest
Sample budget for a Brit flying to Ho Chi Minh City for All-on-4 dental implants (one arch):
| All-on-4 implants (one arch) | £3,000 |
| Return flights (LHR to SGN) | £550 – £850 |
| Hotel (10 nights, 3-star) | £400 – £650 |
| Food & transport (10 days) | £250 – £400 |
| Travel insurance | £60 – £120 |
| Total | £4,260 – £5,020 |
Compared to £18,000 at a private UK clinic, you save £13,000+ even after flights, hotel, and food. That's enough for a family holiday AND a new smile.

UK passport holders enjoy visa-free entry to Vietnam for up to 45 days (extended exemption in place through 2028), Thailand (60 days), Hungary (90 days, Schengen), and Turkey (90 days). No advance paperwork or medical-specific visa is required anywhere. If you plan to stay longer than 45 days in Vietnam, apply for the e-visa (90 days) online at evisa.gov.vn.
Standard UK travel insurance does not cover elective dental treatment abroad. Purchase a short-term policy covering medical complications and emergency dental care — providers like Staysure, Avanti, and World Nomads offer medical-focused add-ons. The NHS does not reimburse treatment taken abroad. Your Tressari clinic warranty covers treatment-related issues separately.
All Tressari quotes are in GBP. Clinics accept UK bank transfers, Visa, Mastercard, and cash (GBP, USD, or local currency). Notify your bank of foreign travel. ATMs are widely available everywhere. Exchange rates are favourable for Brits across all Tressari destinations.
Every Tressari partner clinic has English-speaking dentists and patient coordinators. Treatment plans, consent forms, and post-care instructions are provided in English. WhatsApp, email, and phone support before, during, and after your trip.
Vietnam and Thailand: October to April (dry season). Hungary: May to September is warmest. Turkey: April to October. Avoid Lunar New Year (late Jan–early Feb) in Vietnam as many clinics close for Tết. Budapest and Istanbul are pleasant year-round for treatment visits.

Everything you need to know before booking dental treatment abroad.
NHS dentistry in England is in the middle of an access crisis. More than 12 million adults cannot access an NHS dentist, and a BDA survey found over 90% of NHS practices are no longer accepting new adult patients. Private treatment fills the gap but at a steep cost — private implants average £2,500–£3,500 each, All-on-4 runs £16,000–£24,000 per arch. This two-tier reality is the single biggest driver of UK dental tourism.
Industry estimates suggest more than 250,000 UK residents travel abroad annually for dental care. Tressari's UK patient base has doubled year-over-year, driven by pensioners, families who have been priced out of private care, and professionals who want implants or veneers without waiting years for NHS referral or paying Harley Street prices. Typical UK Tressari patients are 45–75 years old and have been quoted £10,000+ at a UK private clinic.
Every Tressari quote is in GBP, support operates during UK business hours via WhatsApp and phone, and partner clinics are vetted against 47 safety criteria set by our Medical Board of Excellence. Many partner dentists trained in the UK, Ireland, or EU member states and follow GDC-equivalent protocols. Post-treatment, we coordinate records with your UK dentist and back every clinic with the Tressari Global Warranty.
Hungary and Turkey are 2.5–4 hours from the UK, excellent for shorter treatments or patients who want easy follow-up. Vietnam and Thailand offer dramatically lower prices — often 40–50% less than Budapest — but require 11–12 hours of travel each way. Most Brits choose based on treatment scale: big jobs like All-on-4 often justify Asia because savings offset flight costs many times over; single implants or a handful of veneers often go to Budapest or Istanbul.
Look for ISO 9001 or JCI accreditation, dentists with internationally recognised credentials (UK, Irish, German, or equivalent EU training is ideal), verifiable material sourcing (Straumann, Nobel Biocare, IPS E.max), and fluent English communication. Google reviews with recent dates, patient photos, and a written warranty you can take home are non-negotiable. Every Tressari partner clinic meets these thresholds.
Most Brits start planning 6–10 weeks out. Send your X-rays to Tressari, receive 2–3 matched clinic options within 48 hours, confirm your preferred clinic, book flights and accommodation, arrive a day before treatment begins. Bring your full dental history, a medication list, and your travel insurance policy. On return, share your clinic's treatment file with your UK dentist. If you're on an NHS plan, your records will still sit alongside existing NHS treatment notes.
