What to Expect When You Travel to Greece for Dental Care

If you’re thinking about getting dental work done in Greece, you probably have a few questions.
“How does it work?” “Will it be stressful?” “Is it really that easy?”
The good news is: yes, it can be very smooth—if you know what to expect.

Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of how dental tourism in Greece actually works:

📝 1. Initial Inquiry & Consultation (Remote)

Most Greek dental clinics working with international patients offer free remote consultations.
You send a few photos, X-rays (if you have them), and basic info about your case. The clinic evaluates your situation and sends back:

  • A treatment plan
  • An estimated cost
  • Suggested duration of stay

👉 You’ll know everything before booking your flight.

✈️ 2. Travel & Accommodation

Flights to Athens are frequent and affordable from most European cities.
MyDentalHoliday offers help with:

  • Booking nearby hotels
  • Arranging airport transfers
  • Scheduling appointments around your flight dates

Contact us at smile@mydentalholidayhq.com and we can help with your booking.

🛏️ Tip: Some patients book 3–6 nights, depending on the procedure.

🏥 3. First Visit to the Clinic

Once you arrive, your first appointment is usually a detailed examination, including:

  • 3D imaging or X-rays
  • Review and confirmation of the treatment plan
  • Timeline for the sessions (some treatments happen same-day)

Most dentists speak excellent English and explain everything clearly.

🦷 4. Your Dental Treatment Begins

Whether it’s implants, crowns, veneers, or general work, you can expect:

  • Top-tier equipment
  • High-quality materials
  • A modern, professional environment

In many cases, you’ll need 2–3 appointments spread across a few days.

😌 5. Recovery & Rest

After your main treatment, you’ll have time to rest and recover—maybe even enjoy a bit of sightseeing or beach time. Greece’s climate and relaxed pace make it ideal for recovery.

Your clinic may check in with you before departure to ensure everything looks good.

🌍 6. Aftercare & Follow-Up

Before you go, you’ll receive:

  • Aftercare instructions
  • Medications if needed
  • Contact info for remote follow-up (email/WhatsApp)

Some clinics may even offer coordination with your local dentist back home for long-term care.

✅ So, Is It Complicated?

Not at all. In fact, most patients say the experience is easier and more personal than at home—and at a much better price.
