Think about what needs attention while you are away from Boston. That may include work, caring for a relative, or household responsibilities. A companion will need to rearrange their schedule too. A companion package and lodging terms have not been confirmed.

Consider how much flexibility you would have if the evaluation changed the surgery date or more checkups were needed. Return-to-work timing is to be confirmed. Tell the doctor if your job involves physical effort, long shifts, or continuous speaking. Plan PTO or unpaid leave around the doctor’s assessment. Receiving teeth does not mean recovery is complete.

When comparing flights from Boston Logan, BOS, look for SDQ, Las Américas, for Santo Domingo, and PUJ for Punta Cana. Check nonstop and connecting options for your dates. The project documents do not establish schedules, frequency, or fares.

Review the whole trip, including arrival at your lodging and later appointments. A relative meeting you in the Dominican Republic may help, but needs to know where the clinic is. The assigned location and professional are to be confirmed. The two cities are not interchangeable for appointments.

You may want to spend time with family during the trip. Keep time free of commitments and discuss the help they could offer. If they live in another city, visiting their home could add travel between checkups. The schedule must follow treatment needs. If you have no family nearby, ask about lodging and support without assuming those services are included.

Hexa Smile coordinates contact. The clinics perform surgery. Dr. Carlos Contreras Columna practices in Santo Domingo, and Dr. Miguel Asenjo practices in Punta Cana. Review each professional’s experience and results separately. During the evaluation, ask about alternatives and the limited independent long-term evidence for corticobasal implants. These implants seek support in the hard layer of bone.

A local follow-up network for these implants has not been verified. Who would treat you in Boston, the contact for problems, and costs of another trip are to be confirmed. If your regular dentist agrees to review the proposal, ask which records they would need. Do not assume they have the parts or training for every adjustment.

The CDC recommends keeping records of treatment received abroad. Request images and details of the system used. An English-language format is to be confirmed. Ask the doctor to assess when you can fly and explain the checkup schedule before booking your return.
