Risk and safety considerations
The most common concern is access to follow-up care after returning home. SmileJet addresses this by: providing a complete digital treatment record (X-rays, procedure notes, materials spec sheet) that any Australian dentist can use; offering a direct communication channel between you and the overseas clinic for 12 months post-treatment; and partnering only with clinics that use globally supported implant systems with local warranty services.
Travel health insurance that covers dental complications is recommended. Most Australian travel insurers offer this as an add-on. SmileJet can provide a list of insurers familiar with dental tourism claims on request.
