Question 1

Is getting a dental implant painful?

Accepted Answer

No. The procedure is performed under precise local anesthesia, so the surgical site is completely numb. During placement, you will only feel mild vibration and light pressure, not sharp pain. Dr. Amit Oswal is acclaimed for exceptionally gentle hands, and any slight post-op soreness is easily managed with prescribed mild painkillers for 1–2 days.

Question 2

How long does the entire implant process take?

Accepted Answer

The implant placement itself takes just 30 to 60 minutes per tooth. For standard cases, full bone healing (osseointegration) takes between 3 to 6 months while the titanium post fuses permanently with the jawbone. During this healing period, a temporary natural-looking tooth is worn so your smile is never left with an empty gap.

Question 3

How much do dental implants cost at O Dental Clinic?

Accepted Answer

Implant costs depend on bone density, implant brand (e.g. Osstem, Nobel Biocare), and the type of custom crown (Zirconia or Ceramic). During your complimentary 30-minute consultation, Dr. Amit provides a transparent, fixed-cost estimate with zero hidden charges, alongside flexible 0% interest EMI options.

Question 4

Are flexible EMI payment options available?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We partner with leading healthcare financing institutions to provide 0% interest EMI options spread across 3, 6, 9, or 12 months. This makes world-class dental implant treatment easily affordable without any lump-sum financial strain.

Question 5

How long do dental implants last?

Accepted Answer

When placed by an experienced MDS specialist and maintained with standard daily brushing and flossing, dental implants have a documented clinical success rate exceeding 95% and can easily last 20 to 25+ years, often a lifetime.

Question 6

Can senior citizens or patients with diabetes get dental implants?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Age is absolutely no barrier for dental implants. As long as conditions like diabetes or blood pressure are managed and stable, dental implants are exceptionally safe, predictable, and dramatically restore chewing nutrition in senior patients.

Question 7

What if I have low bone density or have had a missing tooth for years?

Accepted Answer

If natural bone has shrunk over time, targeted bone grafting or a sinus lift can easily augment and rebuild bone volume to safely support a titanium implant. Dr. Amit evaluates your 3D scan to confirm if bone augmentation is beneficial.

Question 8

Can single, multiple, or an entire arch of teeth be replaced?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Implants are customized for every situation: a single titanium post for one missing tooth, an implant-supported bridge for 2–4 teeth, or an All-on-4 / All-on-6 fixed bridge to permanently replace a full arch of missing teeth.

Question 9

How should I care for my dental implant after treatment?

Accepted Answer

Care is identical to natural teeth: regular brushing with a soft-bristle brush, daily flossing around the crown, and routine 6-month clinical cleanings. Implants cannot get cavities, but healthy gums ensure lifelong stability.

Question 10

What happens during my first consultation visit?

Accepted Answer

Dr. Amit personally examines your oral health, reviews your existing X-rays or takes a digital scan, inspects bone volume, and discusses your lifestyle requirements. You receive an honest clinical roadmap with zero sales pressure or obligation to start immediately.

Chew naturally. Smile fearlessly. Permanent, pain-free teeth in one visit.
