Australia Travel Escapes is an Australian travel and wellness-tourism publication. It ran as a real travel site from 2008 to 2014, turned toward wellness tourism from about 2015, and came back for the 2026 editorial cycle with dental tourism as a featured niche.

Dental Link holds our 2026 Dental Tourism Destination of the Year title. Its own site lists more than 50 verified clinic and hospital partners and one WhatsApp number for patients from Australia, New Zealand, the US, Canada and the UK.
