Question 1

Is root canal treatment painful?

Accepted Answer

No. The pain people remember is the infection, not the treatment. Under modern local anaesthesia a root canal feels much like having a filling, and most patients walk out relieved rather than sore.

Question 2

How long do dental implants last?

Accepted Answer

With good hygiene and regular check-ups, implants routinely last 20 years or more and often a lifetime. The crown on top may need replacing after 10–15 years of normal wear.

Question 3

Do you treat children?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We see children from their first tooth onwards, with longer, gentler appointments booked at quieter times of day so nothing feels rushed.

Question 4

Do you provide Invisalign-style clear aligners?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We plan clear aligner treatment digitally with a 3D simulation of your result, and we will tell you honestly if fixed braces would work better for your case.

Question 5

How much do dental implants cost?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the implant system, whether bone grafting is needed and the crown material. After your scan we hand you a written, itemised plan — so you know the full cost before starting.

Question 6

How often should I visit a dentist?

Accepted Answer

Every six months for most people. If you have gum disease, implants, braces or a history of frequent cavities, we may recommend three to four monthly reviews.

Question 7

Is implant surgery painful?

Accepted Answer

The procedure itself is done under local anaesthesia, so you feel pressure but not pain. Most patients describe the recovery as milder than a tooth extraction and manage with simple painkillers for a day or two.

Question 8

How much do dental implants cost in Ghaziabad?

Accepted Answer

Cost depends on the implant system, whether a bone graft is needed, and the crown material. We share a written, itemised plan after your scan so there are no surprises mid-treatment.

Question 9

Is a root canal painful?

Accepted Answer

No. The pain people associate with root canals is the infection, not the treatment. Under modern local anaesthesia the procedure is comparable to having a filling done, and the relief is usually immediate.

Question 10

Do I really need a crown afterwards?

Accepted Answer

In almost all back teeth, yes. A treated tooth becomes brittle, and a crown prevents it from fracturing under chewing load.

Question 11

Will my teeth need to be heavily filed?

Accepted Answer

Not usually. Where your enamel and alignment allow, we use minimal-prep or no-prep veneers. Any reduction is planned digitally first and kept to the absolute minimum.

Question 12

How long do veneers last?

Accepted Answer

Well-made porcelain veneers commonly last 10–15 years. Avoiding nail biting, ice chewing and untreated grinding extends that considerably.

Question 13

Am I too old for braces?

Accepted Answer

No. Teeth move at any age as long as gums and bone are healthy. A large share of our orthodontic patients are adults in their 30s and 40s.

Question 14

Do braces hurt?

Accepted Answer

There is mild soreness for two or three days after fitting and after each adjustment. It settles quickly and responds to soft food and simple painkillers.

Question 15

What happens if I don't wear them enough?

Accepted Answer

Treatment simply slows down and trays stop fitting properly. Consistent 20–22 hour daily wear is the single biggest factor in finishing on time.

Question 16

My child is terrified of dentists. What can you do?

Accepted Answer

We use tell-show-do, keep the first visit instrument-free if needed, and never restrain a child. Building trust over two or three short visits works far better than forcing one long one.
