- Usually two trips: one to place the implant, then a second visit some months later for the crown. Some clinics offer a faster protocol
Canadian waits are national figures from the Canadian Institute for Health Information, published 25 June 2026 (CIHI). Waits differ a lot between provinces. Ask your provincial health plan whether it pays anything towards planned care abroad before you book; we have not reviewed provincial rules yet.

Add your flight and hotel
Add a return flight and 5 nights to see whether the trip still costs less than paying in Canada.
When not to travel
- Active gum disease, uncontrolled diabetes or heavy smoking until a dentist has assessed you.
- Large treatment plans (a full arch, many teeth) without a second opinion: problems are harder to fix from abroad.

Clinics differ, but a referral or a letter from your own doctor makes the result far more useful: it says what question the dental implant should answer, and it means someone at home will act on it.
