It is good for someone for sure, alternative payment! Fascinating  Wink . With crooked teeth I don't even know aftr 30-s (years) what are the alternatives, don't want brackets. buahh...

Did you do preliminary consultation before making conclusions?  Huh Grin In some cases this is the only choice possible if you want a good smile. Well depends on many other factors and first is the amount of money that he/she can spend on teeth. My parents live abroad, and they told me if I don’t want brackets to use tallah services because it’s easy and it worked for them, even after the age of 40 plus. In the lower jaw, the front teeth were crooked, so I decided to try. Experience was okay, did not bother me to the point of leaving them. Sure, my smile now is different. Try, and contact them.

It is very good that your dentist accepts the same payments. It affords him to have a lot of clients through this. I am very glad with this decision because after this other dentists will implant this payment. I don't have cryptocurrencies and I pay only with cash or with my card. I have the best dentist in the town which make his work with big attention and accord much time for a patient because he is based on quality not quantity. He is the best, you can find more information on heritagedentistree.com.

Hi guys,

a bit off-topic but some of you might be interested. Hungary has a quite established dental tourism industry and thanks to the high quality of education and cheap prices thousands flock to to the country from Western-Europe, USA, Canada, Japan, China etc. to take care their teeth.

Finally we got a clinic here in Budapest who accepts bitcoin, litecoin, ether.

I am not sure about the movement of people moving to Hungary for dental appointment besides Hungary is not a power force when it comes to clinical matters. We still have countries like Germany, India and the rest.
And in dental educational standard it not on top of the list well according to this article https://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings-articles/university-subject-rankings/new-ranking-worlds-top-dental-schools

Hi, I am not sure I am the best to answer these questions. But what I know, regarding the education, it had way higher standards after the transition from Communism to free market economy (90ies). It followed a sort of Prussian standards which is obsolete now, but demanded a lot of memorization and great emphasis on science subjects (check the Nobel-winner Hungarians, most of them are scientists). Now since that has been messed up, which is caused one hand by the EU education system harmonization efforts. Also this sort of rankings are fundamentally flawed because it has been designed to rank well the Anglophone educational institutes.

Now regarding medical tourism in Hungary including dental, I must say, it is booming and Austrians, Germans flock to Hungary, Romania, Poland etc. to treat their teeth. Close to the Austrian border there are countless clinics ONLY accepting tourists. The main reason of course is economical.

What the dentist has planned is really a good thing understanding the future growth and accepting bitcoin into the dental practices. In every prime location there will be few dental clinics and when one initiates such a plan, possibly the one around the location might also start accepting bitcoin. At the beginning days it won't get large number of users. As days pass scenario changes.

This is really a great idea and approach to earn BTC slowly but your patients must feel comfortable paying your fees as BTC.

Honestly, you'll garner a lot of interest just from having Bitcoin offered as a payment. I know it'd be a huge pro for myself.

I'd get yourself on CoinMap (and other Bitcoin map services), in order to promote your business as a "bitcoin" business. I know I've checked those maps and have found a lot of businesses I would check out. I've even gone to a few, and paid w/ both Cash & Bitcoin (and even become a reoccurring customer at some)

You gotta work on advertisement. The idea is great but you must insure people in what you're doing and offering. Show them thats serious

Hello everybody,
I am a dentist owning more than one dental pratices.
I am looking forward to start accepting cryptocurrencies into my business.
Actually i would probably accept part in real money (Say 30%) part in crypto.
I am also thinking about opening a sort of dentalplan (paying an annual fee, gives access to a lot of discounts and guarantees) in this casse It would Be 100% crypto.
What do you guys think about? Suggestion?
Thanks for your time!!
Hi Beman30, if you are a practicing dentist interested in cryptocurrencies, I would highly recommend you look into the first and only coin for the global dental industry - Dentacoin.

Where are you based? I am afraid in my long life I didn't took care of my tooths, I was only twice on emergencies with my back tooth / molar, still having a lot of problems in that area. If you can post some links about your clinic I would happily give a visit to one of your clinics, also can help for free to set-up a bitcoin/alt cryptocurrencies payment system.

Hello Developerx, i am based in Italy, but the project is worldwide. The idea is to find dentists in your city, rather than doing it in my Clinics (too few patients otherwise).

Send me a PM if interested

Italy is expensive by default at dentists as I lived more than 10 years of my life in Catania, I know that. Last time I paid 2500 euro to take out two molars that were infected.

Sent you a pm

lol dont do business with scammer, he promise to give back my money after took my money. always use escrow !!!
Saw your thread if you still in need of it i can do it i have rep offsite and can do it for $80,pm me your telegram and we can sort a deal

Do some research to minimize the risk, you have to know your focus either you take it as a means of payment only
or you also plan to hold it long term just like investors do. These two things are necessary for you to understand because
crypto in general is risky and you might end up holding a useless coin if you fail to sell it at the right timing.

I'm always in favor of your plan but you should take some advise, you are a great help for the market adoption as you can also
help decimate information about crypto to your potential clients since you can talk to them face to face.

With different sort of payments, this will help you increase your market, if you noticed, there is growing number of business now
that are accepting crypto, so your decision is just timely. 

Thanks for your interest!
yes i am aware about the risk associated, i traded currencies a few years ago so i will probably try hedging it (will look further if possible). Right now i am really trying to understand if there is a potential market, i am not doing it for my own clinics otherwise i would nail me down to a couple of cities. I am trying to give a service worldwide. So when i have a potential patients i will find a potential dentist. It is something i already do, i am just adding bitcoins into the payment process.

That sounds like a very ambitious move! And that's great to know dentists are aware of crypto as well. You may start a revolution in this field, really.
