Abstract

Dental and medical tourism in a peaceful time is highly popular in the current century of globalization. The share of dental tourism is 32 percent of the total number of the international medical tourism market. COVID-19 pandemic made its impact on such type of “treatment travels” requiring safety measures and appropriate travel health insurance. Nevertheless, dental tourism in a wartime is completely unusual and needs to be analyzed. That is why we present a case of such treatment.
