Dental care abroad If you go abroad for dental care: -- Check with the appropriate government agency in the destination country about its national dentistry guidelines. -- Find out what recourse is available if something goes wrong. -- At the dental office, look for infection-control procedures, including instrument sterilization and use of protective gloves, mask and eyewear. -- A traveler's guide to dental care is available through the Organization for Safety and Asepsis Procedures at www.osap.org. Source: American Dental Association. Why is dental cheaper in Mexico? - lower operating costs, dentists are not required have malpractice insurance, dentists are less advanced and use less expensive technology and infection control procedures. Dental treatment performed abroad although less expensive, also carries an increased number of associated complications and risks. Travel, Dental Care and Dental Tourism There is a growing phenomena called "Dental Tourism" in which people travel to a destination that offers less expensive dental care. The decision to visit another country for dental care should go beyond simply comparing prices or even evaluating the dentists' expertise. Countries differ in their standards for infection control and safety. The use of fresh gloves, sterile instruments and safe water are not standard practice in all countries. Without these precautions, patients could be infected with diseases such as hepatitis B. Before considering such trips, it is important to be prepared by using information such as that contained in OSAP's Traveler's Guide. Additional information may be obtained at www.ada.org, www.iamat.org and www.adse.co.uk. Have you seen the dental health of people in the third world countries you mentioned?

All dental treatment, with the exception of the emergency tooth extraction, is elective. That means people can and do live without dental care all around the world. It also means that dentistry is a market-driven industry. Consumers in a free-market pay whatever the market price is for the goods and services they desire. Dental patients are free to shop around for cheaper dentistry. They can even travel to third world countries for their dental care if that is what they want.

There are several factors that impact the cost of dentistry in the U.S. Here are a few:

1. Overhead costs. The average dentist's overhead costs in the U.S. are somewhere between 65-80% of their fees. This includes their rent, office maintenance, staff salaries and benefits, all kinds of insurance costs, lab fees, supplies, utilities, etc.

In third world countries, many of these costs are much lower or non-existent.

2. Education. The tuition and other expenses associated with becoming a licensed practicing dentist in the U.S. can be outrageous. It takes about eight years of post-secondary education to become a general practitioner; more for specialists. A dentist right out of school can be as much as a quarter million dollars in debt before he sees his first paying patient.

Many third world countries do not have the high educational standards or costs of the U.S.

3. Licensing and continuing education. The costs of taking licensing boards can run into thousands of dollars. There are also costs associated with obtaining and maintaining a DEA license (drug prescribing). Additionally, every state requires their dentists to maintain their competency by attending continuing education courses annually. These courses can cost thousands of dollars.

Many third world dentists are still using methods and materials that are considered outdated, substandard, and even barbaric by U.S. standards of care. Most dentists trained outside the U.S. must take additional training in the U.S. if they desire to practice in the U.S.

4. Technology. The latest and most up-to-date technology for dental care is available in the U.S. This includes the best and most effective medications, restorative materials, instruments, and equipment. In the U.S. we use the latest methods of instrument sterilization, disposables (such as needles and anesthetics) and patient safety standards such as high speed x-ray film or digital x-rays to minimize patient exposure to radiation.

Many of these technologies and treatment standards are not even available in third world countries. Can you imagine having to wonder if the needle used to inject local anesthetic on you was previously used on a patient who had AIDS? In the U.S., that should not even be a possibility. In third world countries, it is a daily occurrence.

5. Standard of Care and Risk. Every dentist in the U.S., general practitioner and specialist, is expected to meet a minimum standard of care when treating patients. Failure to meet this minimum standard can result in civil liability as well as loss of their license to practice dentistry. Consequently, the dentist must be prepared to defend his practice if the patient experiences an undesired outcome at the hands of the dentist.

In many third world countries, these legal remedies are not available to the patient who may be harmed by a dentist.

As I said, these are just a few of the factors that have an impact on dental fees in the U.S. Also, be aware that the cost of dental care is generally higher in Beverly Hills than it is in Boise, Idaho. This has as much to do with the affluence of the population and the free market as anything else.

Feel free to seek out quality dental care anywhere you like, but here is some good advice:

Avoid bargains in dentistry and parachutes.

Due to the rain shadow caused by the Andes Mountains, the coast of Peru is mostly desert - the Atacama and Sechura.

All states have specific laws governing this situation. In some instances the publication of the impending divorce proceedings is enough. Consult your state statutes or seek advise from an attorney. Most attorneys offer free or minimal fees for consultations.

36 states are authorized to have lethal injections, Five still have a gas chamber, New Hampshire and Washington still proceed with hangings and Oklahoma and Utah still allow a firing squad. Utah only allows it if requested by a inmate (prisoner).

Pollo a la Brasa, also known as Peruvian chicken or Blackened chicken in the United States and Charcoal Chicken in Australia, is a common dish of Peruvian cuisine and one of the most consumed in Peru, along with ceviche, and Chifa.

It contains vinegar, chile powder, cumin, garlic salt, paprika, garlic clove, soy sauce, oregano, and mint (optional).

I was passing by looking for another question, but since I was born in Peru and lived there for 15 years, I will try to answer your question. Most people in Peru do not have a stable job, so most of them sell stuff on the street, own a shop, or the small percentage that went to university work in factories. A degree in Peru does not guarantee a job after graduation; I knew many people who have their degrees lying around their house.

Peru has the same type of housing that the United States does. People in Peru either live in homes, apartments, condos, or in some cases, hostels.

Both, it is a democratic republic.

Peruvian cuisine is unique and it has some characteristics to distinguish themselves from other nations like corn, chili peppers, potatoes, rice, and wheat.

There are a great many ways in which migration has affected Peru. Migration has brought a lot of people and ideas for example.
