I'm sure you could offer the Japanese dentist 10% of what the procedure would cost in the US and they would do it in one trip.

It cost about 25% of US prices to fly to Costa Rica, stay at a resort, and get the procedure done in a top notch facility. And that's if you just need 1 root canal and crown. If you need even more done the savings move closer to 90%.

And that is a really nice places. You could drive to Mexico and get it done at a decent place for comparatively nothing.

My dental work in Cancun was under $30K including flights from Seattle and 10 days at a higher end hotel (Westin), for work I was quoted up to $65K for in the US.

Honestly that seems high but I can see Cancun being a lot more expensive because people are comfortable going there.

The actual dental work was $23K, so about 35% of the US quotes.
