Mr Stephen Hayes, 62, a businessman from Cheshire, thought he might lose his teeth because the expensive dental treatment he needed was not available on the NHS, but he managed to save £17,000 by flying to Hungary on a "dental holiday". Mr Hayes required a long course of treatment to repair his teeth, including gum surgery, implants, bridges and crowns. Unfortunately this work wasn’t available on the NHS, and a private dentist in south Manchester told him the cost would be £25,000.
His local dentist said there was nothing he could do about his gingivitis but when it developed into periodontitis - a deterioration of the membranes holding the teeth in the bone - Mr Hayes sought a second opinion. A quote from a top dentist in south Manchester totalled £25,000 incorporating gum cleaning, five teeth implants at £2,000 a piece and on top of the implant costs, gum surgery, crowns, bridges and numerous appointments and check-ups. Mr Hayes looked into having the treatment abroad and within a week he was on a flight to Budapest where his extensive dental treatment cost just £8,000.
