Taking a bite at foreign dentists By Raymond Buchanan BBC Scotland Most travellers dread a visit to a clinic in a foreign land. Increasingly, however, many Scottish visitors to Poland are making this the focus of their trip. Long queues for access to dentists back home, cheap flights and bargain prices for treatment have produced the phenomenon of the dental tourist. Marilyn Gardiner is in this group. Frustrated by what she describes as long waits and poor service near her home in Aberdeenshire, she booked herself into a clinic in Warsaw. She is now on her ninth trip. Mrs Gardiner said: "The shortage of dentists in the north east of Scotland means that the waiting lists for seeing a dentist are incredibly long. "One could have to wait two or three months even under the standard system and we were just not satisfied with that."... news.bbc.co.uk
