Tourism - India |

Millions
of people fly from USA, Europe and Australia etc. every
year to get Dental treatment and have a splendid holiday
as well. The cost of dental treatment in the western
countries is 7-10 times more than that of Kerala/India.
This cost advantage and beautiful tourist spots will
definitely help to develop the Dental tourism in Kerala/India,
if proper tour packages are made available.

Dentistry
practiced in India is definitely at par with the rest
of the world. The materials used are of inter national
standard, the clinics and equipment are constantly upgraded
and the instrument sterlisation done with the most trusted
and proved methods. The reason for low cost is nothing
but cheap labour.
