If you’re searching for dentists in Gyor, this Dental Departures destination guide contains everything you need to know about visiting this strategically placed Hungarian city for low-cost treatment.

We have partnered with a growing number of dental clinics in Gyor which offer savings of up to 70% on a range of procedures; plus, when you book with us, you’re always guaranteed the best prices online.

In recent years, Hungary has emerged as one of the leading destinations in Europe for low-cost, quality dental care. In fact, the capital, Budapest, has even been dubbed one of the world’s “ dental tourism capitals ”.

However, for patients considering driving to their appointment via neighboring countries, undergoing treatment somewhere closer to the country’s western border is a more practical option. And one such place ideally located for dental tourists is the city of Gyor, in the northwestern part of Hungary.

This charming city is in fact situated in the regional “Golden Triangle” between Bratislava, Budapest, and Vienna. This means patients can conveniently drive across the border to Gyor via Slovakia or Austria. It’s also known for its excellent road, train, and bus connections, with a major motorway connecting Gyor to Vienna and Budapest.

Europeans have long been flocking to Western Hungary thanks to the huge discounts available on both minor and major dental work, as well as the excellent reputation practitioners here uphold.

This stems back to Hungary’s privatisation process of its dental care sector back in 1995 , which catalysed the emergence of new private practices and increased numbers of dental surgeons graduating from prestigious universities across Europe, thus raising the standards of care and appeal to the foreign market.

More Gyor travel information can be found further down this page.

Patients undergoing treatment at a dentist in Gyor can expect to make average savings of between 50% and 70% when compared to prices in countries like the UK and Germany.

Below, we’ve highlighted some of the average prices you can expect to pay in Gyor for dental implants, veneers, crowns, teeth whitening, root canal therapy, and dentures: 

[Please note that these are estimated prices at the time of writing. See our individual clinic listings for latest prices.]

All these findings are published on our site; you can click through now to either of the clinics above to see dentist profiles, past patient reviews, facility photos, price tables and more handy information.

You can discover these two top clinics in Gyor:

• DENTYS Dental Clinic

• Angel DentiArt Clinic

We are also continually adding to our list of background-checked dentists in Gyor and across the country; you can see our full list of dentists in Hungary here, with other locations to choose from, including Budapest, Sopron and Mosonmagyaróvár.

The answer to this question will generally depend on:

1. The complexity of your intended treatment.

2. Whether or not your chosen clinic has its own on-site dental laboratory for manufacturing prosthetics.

It should also be noted that:

• Most general procedures will only require a stay in Gyor of a few hours.

• For patients receiving a new crown or dental veneers, the clinic may well be able to manufacture the custom-made device on the same day as your original appointment. In other cases, it may take a day or two.

• For more complex restorations with dental implants, patients will typically require two separate trips to Gyor, as the implants will need to be left for around four months before a permanent prosthetic device can be attached.

Feel free to reach out to one of our Customer Care representatives, who will be able to give you an approximate time estimation for your dental work in Gyor.

Today, the city features a mix of more recent communist-built blocks as well as centuries-old architecture that still remains, especially in the old town area which has been undergoing a process of restoration since the 1970s.

Visitors will find plenty in the way of modern amenities, including modern hotels, restaurants, bars, cafes, museums, galleries and shopping plazas.

How Do I Get to Gyor?

Prospective patients visiting Gyor for dental work can drive through designated points of entry on the nearby borders with Slovakia (a matter of minutes to the north) and Austria (around 1 hour to the west). The modern motorway also connects the city to Budapest (around 1.5 hours to the east).
