How to Choose the Right Dentist in India: A Checklist for NRIs
Planning to travel to India for dental treatment? You’re not alone. Thousands of NRIs from the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, and the Middle East fly back every year for affordable, high-quality dental care.
But with so many options available, how do you choose the right dentist in India — especially for major procedures like implants, veneers, or smile makeovers?
We’ve put together a practical, NRI-focused checklist to help you make a safe, smart, and satisfying dental decision.
✅ 1. Check Qualifications & Training
Start with the basics — not all dentists are equal.
Look for:
• MDS (Master of Dental Surgery) qualification
• Degrees from top institutes like PGIMER Chandigarh
• International training in cosmetic or implant dentistry (USA, Europe, etc.)
💡 Pro Tip:
Choose a dentist like Dr. Anshu Gupta, with an MDS from PGIMER Chandigarh, and training in the USA and Europe — trusted by thousands of NRI patients.
✅ 2. Review Experience in Your Specific Treatment
Not every dentist is an expert in everything. If you need:
• Dental Implants ➤ Choose an Implantologist
• Smile Makeover / Veneers ➤ Look for a Cosmetic Dentist
• Braces / Aligners ➤ Find an experienced Orthodontist
✔️ Ask how many procedures they’ve done.
A dentist with 10,000+ implant cases or 20+ years in cosmetic dentistry will always be more reliable.
✅ 3. Ask About Technology and Materials Used
India now offers global-grade dental care, but only at the right clinics.
Make sure the clinic uses:
• CBCT scans for implants
• CAD/CAM for same-day crowns or veneers
• Laser dentistry for faster, less painful procedures
• FDA/CE-certified implant systems (like Nobel Biocare, Straumann)
💡 A well-equipped clinic ensures accuracy, speed, and better long-term results.
✅ 4. Look for International Patient Support
As an NRI, you need more than just dental work — you need:
• 🛬 Help with travel and appointment coordination
• 🏨 Hotel or stay recommendations
• 📋 Detailed documentation for insurance or tax claims
• 🌐 Online consultations before you fly
Dr. Anshu Gupta’s clinic offers:
✅ Free video consultations
✅ Customized treatment timelines (7–10 days)
✅ All necessary paperwork for NRI patients
✅ Multilingual support
✅ 5. Read Verified Reviews & Real Patient Stories
Nothing speaks louder than real experience.
Look for:
• 🌟 Google reviews
• 🎥 Video testimonials (especially from NRI patients)
• 📷 Before-and-after cases
• 🗣️ Word-of-mouth from family or friends
✔️ Reviews from UK, USA, Canada-based patients often reflect how smooth the NRI experience is.
✅ 6. Ensure Transparency in Pricing
Avoid surprises. Ask for a clear, written treatment estimate — including:
• Consultation fees
• Procedure cost
• Lab/Material charges
• Follow-up visits
A trusted clinic will never hide costs or spring add-ons after you’ve arrived.
💬 At Advanced Dental Care Center, Chandigarh, all costs are explained before you book your ticket.
✅ 7. Check Post-Treatment Follow-Up & Support
Once you return home, what if you have a concern?
Choose a dentist who offers:
• 🖥️ Virtual follow-up options
• 📧 Easy access to the team for post-treatment care
• 🗂️ Records and X-rays in digital format for future reference
