Dental work in Negril, or Sav?

The real question here is... where would a Jamaican seek Dental work? If I was an uninsured Jamaican, in need of two Dental Bridge replacements, would I fly to, Miami or Toronto? This was the question I was hoping to answer. Tens of thousands, yes, tens of thousands of Americans fly to Costa Rica for dental work, in particular, implants. Costa Rica is a Dental Tourism Mecca with Mexico not far behind. Unfortunately for me, my Patois is better than my Spanish. You can bet your behind that sterilization and cleanliness of the facility is of great concern, but which Jamaica are we looking at? Let's look past the coconut water and the straw hats for a moment. Underneath the chaotic scene, we typically stereotype Jamaica with, is a vibrant well educated society. More than capable of performing the task at hand. I live in Windsor, Ontario which borders Detroit, Michigan. This allows me to contact both U.S. and Canadian Dental Practices, which I have. Hope your sitting down, the cost in the U.S. is $5,480 drum roll please, and Canada $6,000. Long gone are the days when I could flash my Green Shield Card and think "who gives a crap what it costs". Now, if all I needed were a couple of fillings then the cost of travel would not make sense. I needed a Business plan, a well researched Business plan. First I ran the idea past a friend of mine who travels to Jamaica frequently, he contacted Rob. Rob provided a Dentist's name and the research began. I posted on a few Negril FB groups with the Dentists name, a few people had work done by the fellow and all reviews were positive. I Google'd his name to death, looking for a blemish, nothing. The only thing I found were legitimate business contacts and a reference to his name being listed in the book "Who's who in Black Dentistry in America" published by Aqua Dynamics, Ltd., 1989. If ever there was a guy to trust this would be the guy (the only thing I know about my hometown Dentist is the address). I decided to contact the Negril Dentist to discuss costs, procedure and time frame. Looks like I'm spending two weeks in Negril. The Dental work, plane ticket, transportation, $60 a night rooms, food and drink will come in well below the Canadian estimate and a smidge below the U.S. estimate.
Hey Hey! what can I say...

What about glassed in Jamaica? My parents have a winter home in Arizona. My dad bought new glasses there. Same designer frames, same light weight lenses and saved 80%.
