I hope your husband has a good health insurance and will be able to cover you upon arrival. But even in regular cases, dental insurance is separate from health insurance and will cost $$$. These days when they're looking more closely at all types of applicants (health, potential for earning and not relying on government assistance) - careful how you present yourself at interview.

No we can not go to another country for my dental surgery. I said we tried everything already and with my health limitations and money being tight the only option we have is getting it at the dental facility of my husband town. Plus my surgery is very conplex and risky most countries don't perform it because of that reason alone. I never said I would expedite my own visa case.

 

Your issue is that the claim you can only get your treatment in dental facility in your husband's town isn't even remotely sufficient for any kind of emergency.

If US was the only country where certain procedure is done, it could sound feasible, but coming up with some weird combination of specific facility that is conveniently located in your husband's town and additionally a payment plan isn't something that anyone would ever take into consideration. Which is what others are trying to explain to you. 

I'm sorry you're not hearing what you want to hear, but this isn't going to change the situation. You can always apply and see what happens.

 I need a complex maxilary-Dental surgery.

 

My husband found out the procedure is very simple there 

 

As a dentist I'm trying to wrap my head around this very simple complex maxillary dental surgery.

I started out with nothing, and I still have most of it.

I went bald but I kept my comb.  I just couldn't part with it.

My name is not Richard Edward but my friends still call me DickEd

  2. Turkey. ‍ ...
  3. Mexico. ‍ ...

  5. Thailand

USA isn't even in top 5

 

For OM (Oral Medicine/Maxillofacial) dental specialists in Argentina, look for Prosthodontics, Implantology, or Cosmetic Dentistry experts, as "OM" isn't a standard specialty, but top names include Drs. Pelcman (Cosmetic/Implants, Buenos Aires), Dr. Carlos Adrian Fernandez (Prosthodontics, BA), and centers like Odontología Integral (Córdoba), focusing on high-complexity restorative care, with platforms like PlacidWay Medical Tourism and WhatClinic helping find specialists in implantology, oral surgery, and advanced general dentistry

 

Several of these dentist studied in the US getting PHD here

 

  • Dr. Samuel Pelcman A pioneer in dental implants in Argentina, he received specialized training in the US in the 1990s and also earned a Doctor in Dental Surgery (DDS) degree in California. He is a representative for a New York-based dental research corporation in Argentina.
  • Dr. Martin Pelcman Following his father's path, he received his dental degree from the University of Buenos Aires and subsequently passed the National Board of Dental Examinations in the USA in 2006. He specializes in implants and cosmetic dentistry.

I don't know about the rest, but I would definitely stay away from Turkey for dental work.  We have seen a LOT of problem with dental work done there.

 

Sounds like the OP needs a well qualified oral surgeon and, although we don't know the problem, with their numerous chronic illnesses this may well be a hospital based surgery and we all know what that means.

Argentina and Chile typically have equivalent dental and oral health standards and practices to the U.S. to the point where I’ve considered getting some work done down there. In the sense that the standards are pretty high.

 

Your case might be very specific, but people familiar with the region are going to be skeptical that it’s really a need.

 

B2 medical is the best bet here.

that 's a long process that involves dr/ dentist in her country to corridate with 1 in US

and if the specialists in her country that received PHD in USA will not operate,  probalby a denitst here is not going to either

 

BTW  B2 visa requires her to return to home country

Sounded like she had gone through most of the process involved in. obtaining a B?
