Treatment abroad: real prices, and what clinics actually promise
We read clinics' own websites and record two things: the published price, and four terms that matter when something goes wrong — the guarantee, the redo policy, aftercare once you are home, and the name of the doctor. 3,417 prices from 791 clinics in 21 countries, each with its source and the date we checked it. We do not give quotes, take bookings or give medical advice.
Example: All-on-4 and All-on-6 full-arch implants
In short
- India is the cheapest: median ≈ CAD 4,422 per arch (6 clinics publish a price).
- Mexico has the most choice: 19 clinics, median ≈ CAD 12,204 per arch.
- Only 26 of 70 clinics publish their guarantee terms, 14 more partly. Ask for the guarantee in writing before you pay.
