 Thank you brother. I will reach out. Right now we are discussing in the family if we think travel is on the table. There are definitely good reasons to consider it. 
 @ᴄʏʙᴇʀɢᴜʏ 👽 has a really good point, in Europe it would be way cheaper, there are many countries you could consider going to, it would potentially cut the price to atleast have if not 1/3 
 We are definitely going to look into this 
 Just be cautious with dental tourism and do an extensive research on their service. There are cases with infectious results. Dental tourism is well known practice here in europe and people are traveling abroad regularly because prices are in some countries astronomicaly high even for EU standards.  Serbia (SE of Hungary) is the country I hear the most people go to. 

Just search for the term "dental tourism" and you'll get some results. 

I hope all goes well for you 🫂 
 Your doubt is well founded, comprehensive research is mandatory. But the health tourism works in Hungary (not only dental tourism). 
And do not confuse it, Serbia is not EU member, and I don't know anything about the healthcare in Serbia. 
But me and my brother are good references as patients, I think :-)  
 Btw: about 20 years... I had had a pain in my spine for more than 20 years, caused by an accident when I was a soldier. But fortunately I have been operated ang got titanium implants, thanks to a Hungarian professor who has worldwide patent of a nw type of spine implants. I remember the pain so I feel for you!  
 Also look into Thailand. It's not the 3rd world country people think it is when it comes to medicine, dentals, etc. 
 I second that. The medical system here saved my wife.
