At Smile Savers Hungary we realised early on that for people to seriously consider having dental procedures carried out abroad we would have to go a whole lot further than any clinic in the UK in order to make the experience a good if not great one that would keep people coming back for more (and that in most peoples experience of their home dentists is not a feeling they would usually ever associate with a dentist). We brought with us an in-depth knowledge not just of dentistry but of UK customer experience and expectation as well as an unrivalled understanding of all that the business encompasses from dentistry through to Hungarian culture, tourism and, of course, the language.

We have taken great care to find dentists and clinics that are suitable for UK clients and we used what we knew of our client's needs to assess clinics on these specific criteria including:

Good level of English: A good grounding in English by a majority of the staff means you don't have to worry about grabbing for your phrase book at any time. Priority of Service: No queues, no waiting around. As our customers you have absolute priority.

Qualifications versus Experience: the best is a rich blend of both. All our dentists are of course fully qualified with affiliations and memberships to international dental organisations. All our lead practitioners have more than 10 years experience under their belt. Unique also to Hungarian dentistry is the system that practising dentists, in order to keep their license, must acrue enough points each year which they earn attending training courses, seminars and lectures which means they are always abreast of new technologies and techniques.

High level of integration: we wanted all or most of the services offered to be performed either on site or very close by; the last thing anyone coming to a new foreign city is to be wandering around trying to find lots of different places.

Specialisations on offer: These included Periodontology, Orthodontology and Implantology.

Technology In Use: The digital age has brought great benefits to dentistry and we were keen that we should feature clinics utilising the latest technology throughout their practice. This was perhaps one of the easiest points to satisfy as so many clinics in Budapest have modernised relatively recently in the last 15 years; a time when dentistry through out the world was just starting to utilise the benifits afforded it by the digital age. Our initial visits to clinics always turn up some new and suprising technolgies.

Weekend and out of hours work available: None of us have much free time these days and to some a weekend break is the only chance to get minor dental work done.

Guarantees: We felt it necessary that for major work such as implants and crowns that guarantees of sufficient time were being offered as standard.

Fair Price: Dentistry in Hungary is cheap in comparison to the UK but we still expected to see value for money and what Hungarians would see as fair prices being charged.

Transportation: All our clinics offer free transportation from the Airport and for every visit to and from the clinic.

The Wow Factor: We wanted to be really impressed by what we experienced and saw. All of our clinics have the wow factor.
