Why is Sonrisas Sanas popular for dental vacations?

Low-Cost Dentistry in Nicaragua: Dental packages in Nicaragua include all costs like X-ray, prosthesis, etc., at the clinic, and the dentist’s fees, and yet they are over 100% less expensive than what you will find in the US, UK, Canada, and most developed countries. For the 100 million plus people in the US without dental insurance, dental vacations to Nicaragua are easily an attractive option.

Proximity and Convenience: Nicaragua is quite close to the US and Canada, and this makes traveling for dental care very hassle-free. It does not take more than 4-7 hours of travel from the US, depending on which city you are flying from. Many major US cities have daily non-stop flights to Nicaragua. Also, US and Canadian citizens who have valid passports do not need a visa to enter Nicaragua for stay of less than three months. Below are some sample flight paths to Nicaragua from major cities in the US:
