For many Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) in the United States, dental care can be shockingly expensive. A simple gum treatment can cost hundreds—or even thousands—of dollars, depending on the clinic.

In the bustling city of Davao, where family and hard work are paramount, a dental check-up is often the first thing to be cut from a tight budget. For the low-income family, it's a choice between a week's worth of groceries and a dental cleaning. For the middle-class family, it's an expense that can be postponed.

Known as amalgam, this durable and affordable material has been the go-to solution for cavities for over a century. But the era of the "silver smile" is coming to a deliberate and global close.
Full mouth dental implants are one of the most advanced—and expensive—procedures in modern dentistry. In California, where healthcare costs are among the highest in the United States, many patients are surprised when they receive treatment estimates that reach tens of thousands of dollars.
