Recent panoramic X-ray
A treating clinic may later use a pano to look at missing teeth, bone level, roots, sinuses, wisdom teeth, and old dental work.
If requested, send it only through that clinic's own secure intake — never to ToothAbroad.
CBCT scan for implants or All-on-4
Some implant dentists later ask for a 3D CBCT before they treat a written estimate as a final plan.
Ask in writing whether a quote includes CBCT and whether the implant dentist reviews it. ToothAbroad does not receive scans.
Clinic-requested photos
Some treating clinics may ask you for mouth photos in their own secure intake after you choose to continue.
ToothAbroad's first check does not need photos; use the written quote text and commercial terms instead.
Current written estimate or treatment-cost summary
If a dentist has already given you a written estimate, use the commercial parts for comparison: procedure names, itemized costs, materials, timing, deposit, refund and warranty wording.
Send clinical records only to the treating clinic through its own intake if you choose to continue.
By procedure
What a clinic may request for each treatment.
More complete clinic-side records can make a treating clinic reply with a clearer plan. They are not required for ToothAbroad's first written quote check.
Single implant
A treating clinic may later ask for a panoramic X-ray, CBCT if possible, and commercial quote lines for the missing-tooth area. Send files only to that clinic's intake.
All-on-4 / full arch
A treating clinic may later ask for CBCT and a written cost/timing summary. ToothAbroad only reviews commercial quote wording, not scans.
Crowns
A treating clinic may later ask for bitewing or periapical X-rays. For ToothAbroad, compare itemized crown costs, materials, timing and warranty wording.
Veneers
A treating clinic may later request smile photos through its own intake. ToothAbroad's first check stays written quote text only.
Root canal
A treating clinic may later request a periapical X-ray. Do not send pain notes, images or medical files to ToothAbroad.
Red flags
Do not pay a deposit if these are missing.
Clinic gives a full implant quote without asking for X-rays or CBCT through its own intake.
Quote says “lifetime warranty” but has no written exclusions.
All-on-4 plan does not mention temporary vs final teeth timing.
Implant brand, abutment, crown material, or lab work are not named.
You are asked for a large deposit before a dentist reviews diagnostic records in the clinic's own process.
The treatment plan changes dramatically after you arrive with no clear explanation.
Clinic-owned intake
Keep records with the treating clinic, not ToothAbroad.
- 1If a clinic later asks for X-rays or CBCT, send those files only through the clinic's own secure intake.
- 2For ToothAbroad's first written quote check, paste only quote text, procedure names, materials, timing, deposit, refund and warranty wording.
- 3Mouth photos, if requested, go to the treating clinic after you choose to continue — not to ToothAbroad.
- 4Do not email dental records, X-rays, CBCT scans, mouth photos, lab reports, or medical files to ToothAbroad.
- 5A written commercial quote can be compared before any clinic-owned records intake starts.
Have a written quote already?
Paste the written quote text into the review tool, but do not send X-rays, CBCT scans, mouth photos, lab reports, or full medical records to ToothAbroad. Do not email dental records to ToothAbroad. If you later request a clinic introduction, the clinic should request records directly through its own intake process after your explicit consent.
