[Viewpoint] Time to open up the medical system - INSIDE JoongAng Daily: "The historic city of Sopron, Hungary, is famous for dental tourism.

Located on the Austrian border, Sopron has over 500 dental clinics. Among the city’s 60,000 residents, 5,000 are dentists.

Prices for many procedures are just a fraction of what they cost in other countries in the area. Sopron became the hottest destination for dental tourism after the European Union was established. Today, 130,000 foreigners visit Sopron annually, many of them for medical procedures."
