Why European Patients Travel to Cairo
European dental fees have risen significantly over the past five years, while in-network dental insurance ceilings have stayed flat. A premium implant case costs considerably less in Cairo than in Frankfurt — using the same Straumann components and the same digital workflow. Cost depends on your case and is confirmed in a written treatment plan after your consultation.
