The concept of dental tourism can be considered two-fold. On one side it is a term used to describe non-UK residing patients who visit, requesting NHS dental care whilst here in the U.K. Alternatively, it also encompasses patients who travel to destinations outside their residing countries to receive care. The latter has become an ever-growing issue in the U.K.; one that warrants appropriate management and knowledge of current legislation amongst dental professionals. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Clarity and guidance on who is eligible for care under the NHS when visiting the U.K. and who, if anyone, is ultimately responsible when treatment abroad fails.
