Living with an Imperfect Smile – "I Wanted to Feel Confident Again"
As an event planner in Orlando, I spend most of my time meeting clients, hosting elegant gatherings, and organizing unforgettable moments. A big part of my job is making people feel comfortable, and that starts with a warm, confident smile. But for years, I felt self-conscious about mine.
At 52, my teeth had lost their shine. I had small gaps, uneven edges, and discoloration that no whitening toothpaste could fix. My husband, James, also wanted to improve his smile with professional whitening and deep cleaning. We both agreed—it was time for a change.
"I help people create beautiful memories at their events, yet I didn’t feel good about my own smile. I wanted to laugh, speak, and take photos without hesitation."
The Shock of U.S. Dental Costs – "Everything Was Overpriced"
I was excited to fix my smile—until I saw the prices. In Orlando, the cost of veneers was over $1,000 per tooth. Since I needed multiple Dental veneers, the total cost was outrageous. James' whitening and deep cleaning weren’t cheap either.
We considered financing options, but even with a payment plan, it felt like an unnecessary financial burden. Why should we have to spend so much just to feel good about our smiles?
That’s when I started looking into other options.
"I couldn’t believe how expensive it was. I started thinking—there had to be a more affordable way without sacrificing quality."
Discovering Dental Tourism – "Could Georgia Be the Answer?"
I started researching affordable dental treatments abroad, and I kept coming across Tbilisi, Georgia, as a top destination and i was always keen to see this place famous for tourism and wine. People in online communities recommended it for high-quality dental care at a fraction of the cost in the U.S.
At first, I was skeptical. Could I really trust a clinic in another country? Would the materials be the same quality? But the more I read, the more success stories I found.
"I was nervous about traveling abroad for dental work, but I kept hearing how Georgia offers top-quality treatment at an affordable price."
Finding PlacidWay – "A Safe and Trusted Path"
As I continued my research, I saw PlacidWay being recommended frequently in medical tourism groups. People said that unlike individual clinics (which all claim to be the best), PlacidWay only partners with certified and reputable clinics, ensuring a safe experience.
I decided to reach out, and that’s when I was connected with Vidya, a Patient Coordinator at PlacidWay. She listened to my needs, explained the process, and connected me with a highly rated dental clinic in Tbilisi.
"Vidya from PlacidWay made everything so easy. She answered all my questions and found me a clinic I could truly trust."
Arriving in Georgia – "I Knew I Made the Right Choice"
When James and I arrived in Tbilisi, Georgia, we were pleasantly surprised. The city was beautiful, welcoming, and filled with modern medical facilities. The dental clinic exceeded our expectations—it was clean, high-tech, and professional.
"The moment I stepped into the clinic, I felt at ease. It was just as professional—if not better—than clinics I had seen back home."
The Transformation – "A Smile Worth the Journey"
My veneers were placed with precision, and James received his teeth whitening and deep cleaning. The process was smooth, and before I knew it, my new smile was complete.
"Seeing my new smile for the first time was overwhelming. I felt like a whole new person—confident, happy, and ready to show the world my smile!"
A Message to Others – "Don't Let Fear Stop You"
If you're considering dental treatment abroad but are unsure, don’t let fear hold you back. PlacidWay connected me with a safe, certified clinic that gave me an amazing smile for a fraction of the U.S. price.
