Dental Tourism FAQ
How much will I save
if I have a dental procedure in India?
That depends on the type of dental procedure you choose
but the price level in India is very favorable with cost savings
upto 80% compared to prices in the UK and the US. This will
enable you to enjoy recuperation on an amazing beach or a short holiday
in addition to your surgery and still return home with a significant
cost saving. To request an estimate simply
fill out the inquiry form.
Why go to another country
for dental services?
The main reason for going abroad for medical services is
access to world class dental care. Furthermore, the favorable price
level makes dental care of the highest international standards available
to everyone. However, price should not be considered the main factor
in deciding to have surgery abroad. Having dental surgery abroad
is without a doubt a big decision and therefore the quality of care
should be
the most important factor to consider.
Will I be able to speak
with the Dental surgeon prior to departure?
Yes, absolutely! If you have any questions for the dental
surgeon we will be happy to help you. When you have requested us
to put together a surgery abroad package for you we will facilitate
a pre-departure consultation with your surgeon.
Do I need to tell my
dentist?
No you do not have to tell your dentist at home. However,
we recommend that you discuss your thoughts about having dental surgery
abroad with your general practitioner.
What language do you
speak at the clinic?
All dentists and other staff
at our clinic speak English fluently.
Will I need a Passport
and Visa?
Yes you will definitely need a valid passport and a visa.
You can learn more about the process
at our website.
Can someone come along
with me?
Yes. If you wish we can arrange for someone to join you.
Just contact us and let us know.
Who else goes to India
for Dental Treatment?
We get numerous
patients from USA, UK, Australia, Canada, middle east & many
other countries.
I need more information
which is specific to me before I make any decisions?
Obviously, you will have a good
idea of the Dental work that you require before considering having
major work performed overseas but we do insist on a Consultation
before you book your Dental vacation.
How will I get to India?
You can fly into New Delhi (airport
code DEL) from all the major cities throughout
the world. Click here to learn more
about your travel options.
Where will I stay?
It really depends on you. We
can help with a wide selection of accommodation ranging from basic
(3 star) up to luxurious (5 star) if you need help with your stay.
We provide a list
of local hotels that are close to our clinic.
How long will I have
to stay in India for?
Again, this depends on what
treatment you require but everything will come clear once you have
had your consultation but it could range from a couple of days to
a couple of weeks. We can tell you the number of days you will need
to spend in India for dental treatment before you make your travel
plans.
How much notice do i
have to give?
There is a lot of planning that
goes into your trip, so as much notice as you can give is helpful.
Always speak to us to discuss your requirements before doing anything.
We appreciate that some of our clients will require emergency treatment
& we will do our best to get you seen as soon as possible.
How do I know if my dental procedures will be completed in the
time limit I have?
During our treatment planning,
we take into account your travel time and are aware
of how long your stay is in the country and we will
have
a timeline
for
completion of your procedures already planned out before you reach
India. We will reserve the time for you to ensure timely completion
of dental procedures.
As our client you will receive
High Priority, and we will discuss the procedures you are most interested
in having done then advise you on how long you will need to stay
to have these completed.
Is the Hygiene and Sterilization up to world standards?
We use world class sterlization
technology and techniques. Please click
here to learn more about it.
How do I know what I need to have done if I haven't been to a dentist
in many years?
There are two ways to do this:
you can of course go to a Dentist in your country and get a full
check up and get a Quote as some
of our clients do, or a lot of clients have already been to a dentist
and got the shock of the quote so they already know what procedures
they need to have done
Then there is the highest percentage
of our clients who just do it all over in India on there first
visit to the our Dental Clinic
as you will need a full check up on your first visit anyway, Including
X Rays, Clean and Scale, Full Check up as you would do here.
