What $1,000 Gets You in India vs Abroad: NRI Guide to Cosmetic Dentistry
Are you an NRI exploring cosmetic dental treatments like veneers, bonding, or teeth gap correction—but shocked by the high costs in your country?
Here’s the good news: That same $1,000 can give you a full smile makeover in India, with global-quality materials and expert care. This guide will show you how far your money goes in India compared to the UK, USA, Canada, or Australia—and why thousands of NRIs trust Dr. Anshu Gupta at Advanced Dental Care Center, Chandigarh for cosmetic dental care.
Cosmetic Dentistry: What Does It Include?
Common smile enhancement procedures include:
• Porcelain veneers
• Composite bonding
• Teeth whitening
• Invisalign / clear aligners
• Smile design with digital previews
• Tooth reshaping or gum contouring
These are usually considered non-essential (elective) in the West—and can cost a fortune. In India, they’re affordable, accessible, and delivered with world-class precision.
What $1,000 (Approx. ₹83,000) Gets You in India
Treatment In India Abroad
Porcelain Veneers 5–8 veneers (₹10k–₹18k per tooth) 1 veneer in USA ($800–$2,000)
Composite Bonding 6–10 teeth 1–2 teeth
Invisalign (Initial Set) Full consultation + scan + first trays Just the consultation fee
Digital Smile Design Included in treatment Often charged separately
Teeth Whitening (In-Clinic) Full upper + lower arch Partial or DIY kit
💡 In India, you can achieve a dramatic smile transformation for what would only cover a single tooth abroad.
Real NRI Case Example
👩⚕️ Aarti M., London, UK
“In the UK, 8 veneers were quoted at £7,200. In Chandigarh, I got 8 porcelain veneers, smile design, and post-care—all for under ₹1.5 lakhs (~£1,400). Same global brands. Better personal attention.”
