Safety & Quality
20 questions
Is dental treatment in India safe?
At accredited hospitals, yes. Stunning Dentistry holds AAID, AACD, BACD, and ISO 9001:2015 accreditations. We use the same Straumann and Nobel Biocare implant systems as your British clinic. Our protocols are identical. Our prices are not.
Why Stunning Dentistry
British patients trust us because our protocols match your clinic at home, only the price is lower. Book a free video consult and see the AAID and ISO 9001:2015 standards behind your care for yourself.
What accreditations does Stunning Dentistry have?
AAID (American Academy of Implant Dentistry), AACD (American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry), BACD (British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry), ISO 9001:2015, and NABH. All specialists hold MDS qualifications equivalent to British Specialist Register.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Accreditation is not a logo to us, it is how we earn the trust of British patients flying in. Book a free video consult and we will walk you through every credential that applies to your case.
Are the implant systems the same as the UK?
Yes. We exclusively use Straumann and Nobel Biocare implants, the same systems used by leading British clinics. All materials are USFDA-approved and meet Health the UK standards.
Why Stunning Dentistry
You get the exact Straumann and Nobel Biocare implants your British dentist would place, at a fraction of the GBP cost. Book a free video consult for an honest, case-specific plan built on those systems.
How is sterilisation handled?
ISO 9001:2015 certified protocols. Pre-vacuum B-class autoclave with validated cycle documentation. 90+ single-use items per surgical procedure. HEPA-filtered air handling. Daily instrument audits with documented traceability.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Our sterilisation is documented and traceable, the same standard you would expect back home in the UK. Book a free video consult and ask to review the protocols that will protect you during your visit.
What if I get an infection after returning home?
Our lifetime warranty covers all implant-related complications including infection. 24/7 WhatsApp support connects you with our team. We coordinate with your local British dentist for any urgent care needed.
Why Stunning Dentistry
If anything arises once you are home in the UK, our written lifetime warranty and 24/7 WhatsApp line have you covered, and we liaise with your local dentist. Book a free video consult to see exactly what that aftercare includes.
How many dentists will work on my case?
Every case is reviewed by a multi-specialist team: implantologist, prosthodontist, periodontist, and radiologist, all reviewing your 3D CBCT together. This collaborative approach catches issues a single dentist might miss.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your case is read by a full team of super-specialists, not one generalist, so nothing is missed. Book a free video consult and your 3D CBCT scan will be reviewed by that same panel.
What technology does the clinic use?
3D CBCT scanning, 3Shape TRIOS intraoral scanners, CEREC and Formlabs GBP/CAM milling, Digital Smile Design software, Modjaw motion analysis, surgical microscopes, conscious sedation suites, BiOlase Waterlase, ZOOM whitening, HEPA-filtered surgical operatories, and Class B autoclaves.
Why Stunning Dentistry
The technology behind your treatment matches a top British hospital, from CBCT to Digital Smile Design. Book a free video consult and a 3D scan to see how it maps onto your own case.
Is the clinic comparable to British dental hospitals?
Stunning Dentistry runs two flagship Delhi clinics with 25+ super-specialists. Our equipment, sterilisation standards, and implant brands are identical to what you'd find at a top British dental hospital. Forbes India has ranked us #1 for four consecutive years.
Why Stunning Dentistry
As India's largest dental hospital with 25+ super-specialists and four years of Forbes #1 recognition, we hold the standard you expect in the UK. Book a free video consult to compare your case head to head.
Who actually performs the surgery?
Dr. Priyank Sethi (BDS, MDS Conservative Dentistry & Micro Endodontics, PhD) leads complex cases. Sub-specialists handle their own disciplines: implantologists place implants, prosthodontists design teeth, periodontists handle gum work.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your surgery is led by named super-specialists like Dr. Priyank Sethi, each working only within their discipline. Book a free video consult and we will confirm exactly who will handle your case.
How experienced are the surgeons?
Our implant team places 1,200+ implants per year, more than the typical British surgeon places in five years. Volume builds judgment. We see complications others have only read about, and we resolve them in-house.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Volume builds judgment, and our implant team places more cases in a year than many British surgeons see in five. Book a free video consult for an honest read on how that experience applies to you.
What happens if there's a surgical complication?
Most complications are minor and managed during your stay. Serious complications (rare) are addressed by our multi-specialist team on-site. Our 924-case registry shows a Cat A (severe) rate of 8.7%, well within international benchmarks.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A multi-specialist team on-site means any rare complication is handled in-house, against documented benchmarks. Book a free video consult and we will explain candidly how your specific risk is managed.
Is the water safe for rinsing post-surgery?
All clinic operatories use medical-grade purified water for rinsing and irrigation. For drinking and brushing during your stay, we recommend bottled mineral water, which your patient coordinator arranges supply of.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your safety extends past the operatory, which is why your patient coordinator arranges clean supply for your whole stay. Book a free video consult and we will map out the practical care around your treatment.
Do you reuse instruments?
Single-use disposables are used for everything that contacts blood (suction tips, drapes, syringes, etc.). Reusable instruments (mirrors, retractors) are sterilised between every patient using validated B-class autoclave cycles.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Anything that touches blood is single-use, and reusable instruments are autoclaved between every patient. Book a free video consult and ask to see the sterilisation standard that protects you.
What about cross-infection risk?
Stunning Dentistry uses single-patient surgical kits. Operatories are HEPA-filtered. Air changes are documented per ISO 9001:2015. No instrument is re-used until autoclave validation passes the Bowie-Dick test.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Single-patient kits and HEPA-filtered, documented operatories keep cross-infection risk controlled to ISO 9001:2015 standard. Book a free video consult to review the protocols safeguarding your visit.
Are there any reported deaths or major incidents?
No. We've treated 1000+ international patients across 17 years with zero mortality and zero major adverse events. Independent NABH audits review our records annually.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A clean record across 1000+ international patients over 17 years, audited yearly by NABH, is why British patients choose us with confidence. Book a free video consult for an honest, case-specific assessment.
Are the doctors registered?
All clinical staff are registered with the Dental Council of India (DCI), the Indian equivalent of NHS dental college. Specialist registrations are individual and verifiable on request.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Every clinician is DCI-registered and individually verifiable, the same assurance you expect from a NHS college back home. Book a free video consult and request the registrations relevant to your case.
Do specialists carry malpractice insurance?
Yes. All Stunning Dentistry specialists carry professional indemnity insurance. We also carry hospital-level liability insurance covering treatment events.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Both your specialist and the hospital carry indemnity and liability cover, so your treatment is properly protected. Book a free video consult and we will confirm the cover that applies to you.
Are anaesthetists qualified?
Conscious sedation is administered by ABEM-certified anaesthetists. General anaesthesia (rare for dental) is administered in our partner hospital with full anaesthesia team.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your sedation is handled by certified anaesthetists, with a full hospital team on hand when needed. Book a free video consult and we will detail the clearance your case requires.
What if I have a heart condition or take blood thinners?
Pre-treatment medical clearance is mandatory for any cardiac history, blood thinners, diabetes, or autoimmune conditions. We coordinate with your British GP / family doctor/cardiologist before treatment.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Blood thinners and cardiac history are managed, not feared, with mandatory clearance coordinated with your British doctor. Book a free video consult and we will map exactly what your case needs.
Can I see your registry data?
Yes. We publish a 924-case warranty registry with Cat A/B/C/D distribution. Available on request via your patient coordinator. Independent audit by NABH each year.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We are open about our outcomes, publishing a 924-case registry with independent NABH audit each year. Book a free video consult and your patient coordinator will share the data for your own peace of mind.
Costs & Pricing
25 questions
How much will I realistically save?
Most British patients save 60-80% on treatment costs. After flights (£400-£950 return) and accommodation (£30-£60/night), net savings range from £13,000 to £32,000+ for full-mouth cases.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Many British patients arrive expecting modest savings and leave stunned by the gap, even after travel. Book a free video consult for an honest, itemised GBP quote so you see your real net number before you commit.
What's included in the quoted price?
All-inclusive pricing covers surgery, implants, temporary teeth, permanent prosthesis, all clinical visits during your trip, and follow-up care coordination. It excludes international flights, accommodation, meals, and local transport in the UK.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Our British patients value knowing exactly where every GBP goes, with no surprises layered on at the clinic. A free video consult gives you one written, all-inclusive quote you can read line by line.
Are there hidden costs?
No. We provide itemised GBP pricing upfront with British comparisons. Additional procedures such as bone grafting or sinus lift are flagged at quote stage. Payment is structured as a 25% deposit, 50% before surgery, and 25% on completion.
Why Stunning Dentistry
British patients tell us the no-hidden-costs promise is why they trusted us over cheaper-sounding quotes. Book a free video consult and receive itemised GBP pricing upfront, with any extras flagged before you fly.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. The standard structure is a deposit, a pre-surgery balance, and a final balance. For larger cases, extended payment terms are arranged. We do not charge interest.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We structure payments around your case and your trip, never charging interest, because British patients should feel in control of cash flow. A free video consult maps out terms that fit your full-mouth plan.
Does Medicare or private health cover treatment?
Medicare does not cover dental implants. Private health insurance typically covers £500-£1,200/year, which is less than 5% of British implant treatment costs. Medical financing through Medicard or a personal line of credit is commonly used for many patients.
Why Stunning Dentistry
With British private cover capping at a few hundred dollars, our patients plan around the real gap honestly. A free video consult gives you an itemised GBP invoice formatted to claim whatever you can back home in the UK.
Why is treatment so much cheaper in India?
Lower operational costs (rent, labour, overheads), not lower quality. We use the same Straumann implants, manufactured in Switzerland, with the same serial numbers and the same warranty. The cost difference is geographic, not clinical.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Lower cost, never lower quality, is the truth our British patients verify in person at India's largest dental hospital. Book a free video consult to confirm the same Swiss-made Straumann systems and written warranty you would get in the UK.
How do I pay?
We accept bank transfers, major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex), and international wire transfers. Pricing is quoted in GBP for transparency, with currency conversion at the prevailing rate. There are no hidden FX fees from us.
Why Stunning Dentistry
British patients appreciate paying through familiar channels with GBP-quoted clarity and no surprise FX fees from us. A free video consult walks you through a transparent, itemised quote before any payment.
How much does a single dental implant cost?
£150 at Stunning Dentistry vs £3,200-£4,800 at a typical British clinic. The Stunning quote includes the implant fixture, abutment, and zirconia or e.max crown. The British quote often does not.
Why Stunning Dentistry
British patients are often astonished a single implant can cost so little here with the crown included. Book a free video consult for an honest itemised GBP quote so you see exactly what each implant covers.
How much does All-on-4 cost?
£1,900 per arch at Stunning Dentistry, against £22,000-£24,000 per arch at British clinics. Both arches come to £3,800 vs £38,000-£55,000 and Stunning's price is all-inclusive.
Why Stunning Dentistry
All-on-4 at this gap is why so many British patients fly to India's largest dental hospital. Book a free video consult and 3D scan for an all-inclusive GBP quote on your full-arch case, planned by our 25+ super-specialists.
How much does All-on-6 cost?
£2,200 per arch. The extra two implants (vs All-on-4) add stability for patients with thicker bone structure or heavier bite force. The British comparison is £25,000-£38,000 per arch.
Why Stunning Dentistry
When your bone or bite calls for the extra stability of All-on-6, our super-specialists plan it precisely, not upsell it. Book a free video consult and CBCT scan to learn which option truly fits your case, with an honest GBP quote.
How much do zygomatic implants cost?
£400 per implant. Most zygomatic cases use 2-4 implants per arch combined with conventional implants. British zygomatic packages start at from £330 per arch.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Zygomatic implants rescue cases British patients were told were hopeless, at a fraction of home pricing. Book a free video consult and 3D scan for a specialist-led plan and an honest itemised GBP quote.
How much do veneers cost per tooth?
£90 per tooth (zirconia, ceramic, or e.max). The British comparable is £900-£1,500 per tooth. Most smile-design cases use 12-20 veneers.
Why Stunning Dentistry
British patients design full smiles here for what a few veneers cost back home in the UK. Book a free video consult to preview your Digital Smile Design and receive a clear per-tooth GBP quote.
How much does Digital Smile Design cost?
£1,000 for 12 ceramic veneers (6 upper + 6 lower). It includes 3D CBCT, a photographic mock-up, a mock-up wear-test, and the final case. The British comparable is £13,000-£19,000.
Why Stunning Dentistry
You see and approve your new smile before it is made, all for a fraction of British pricing. Book a free video consult to preview your Digital Smile Design with an honest, itemised GBP quote.
Does the price include the temporary teeth?
Yes. Same-day temporary teeth are included in every implant package. They are functional, aesthetic, and worn during the 4-6 month osseointegration period before final zirconia is fitted.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Walking out with same-day teeth at no extra cost is a detail our British patients love. Book a free video consult to see exactly what your implant package includes, with everything itemised in GBP.
Does the price include the permanent prosthesis?
Yes. The final monolithic zirconia or layered zirconia prosthesis is included. It is either delivered before you leave, for cases that osseointegrate quickly, or couriered to your British dentist.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your final zirconia is part of the package, delivered before you leave or couriered to your dentist back home in the UK. Book a free video consult for an honest, all-inclusive GBP quote with nothing left out.
Does the price include CBCT and X-rays?
Yes. A 3D CBCT scan, panoramic X-ray, intraoral photographs, and Digital Smile Design preview are included as part of treatment planning. There is no separate radiology bill.
Why Stunning Dentistry
No separate radiology bill is one more reason British patients trust our all-inclusive pricing. Book a free video consult and your 3D CBCT scan, included as part of your honest, itemised GBP plan.
Does the price include consultations?
Yes. Pre-treatment video consultations (free), in-clinic assessment, treatment planning meeting, surgery, recovery follow-ups, and post-departure remote check-ins are all included.
Why Stunning Dentistry
From the first free video call to post-departure check-ins, your consultations are included, something British patients rarely see at home. Book a free video consult to start your itemised GBP plan today.
Are pre-treatment medical tests included?
Standard dental pre-op (CBCT, blood pressure, blood sugar) is included. If we require advanced cardiac or metabolic clearance from your GP, that is organised with your British doctor and billed separately by them.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We are upfront about which tests sit inside your package and which your British GP bills separately. Book a free video consult for an honest, itemised GBP quote so there are no surprises before you fly.
Is the cost of medication included?
All in-clinic medication (anaesthesia, sedation, antibiotics during surgery) is included. Take-home prescriptions for a week of post-op care are included. Continuing medication you might need, for example for chronic conditions, is your responsibility.
Why Stunning Dentistry
British patients value knowing exactly which medication is covered and which stays their own. A free video consult gives you a transparent, itemised GBP quote so every inclusion is clear before you travel.
What if I need additional treatment mid-trip?
If your CBCT reveals a previously-undiagnosed issue such as a cyst or additional decay, we present options and pricing in writing before proceeding. Nothing is added without your sign-off.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Nothing is ever added without your written sign-off, a promise our British patients lean on. Book a free video consult and CBCT scan so your plan and itemised GBP pricing are clear before you arrive.
How does pricing compare to Bali, Thailand, Turkey?
Stunning Dentistry's per-implant cost is comparable to Bali and Thailand, and lower than Turkey. The differentiator is materials (Straumann/Nobel Biocare only), specialist depth (25+ super-specialists), and our 924-case warranty registry.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Among medical-tourism options, our materials and 25+ super-specialists are what set India's largest dental hospital apart, not just price. Book a free video consult for an honest GBP quote and the warranty registry behind it.
Is the cheapest option always the best?
No. The lowest-priced packages typically use unbranded implants, plastic prosthetics, or cut corners on sterilisation. Our pricing sits in the middle of medical-tourism options because we use top-tier materials.
Why Stunning Dentistry
British patients learn that the lowest quote often hides unbranded parts and corner-cutting. Book a free video consult to see why our top-tier Straumann and Nobel Biocare materials sit at fair, honest GBP pricing, backed by a written warranty.
Do you charge per implant or per arch?
Both pricing models are available. Per-implant works for single replacements. Per-arch (All-on-4 / All-on-6 / All-on-8) is fixed-package pricing for full-arch restoration regardless of the implant count needed.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Whether your case suits per-implant or fixed per-arch pricing, our super-specialists choose what genuinely fits you. Book a free video consult and 3D scan for an honest, itemised GBP quote tailored to your case.
Can I get an exact quote without travelling?
Yes. Send your panoramic X-ray or CBCT to our team. Within 48 hours you receive a written treatment plan with itemised GBP pricing and timeline. No obligation, no fee.
Why Stunning Dentistry
British patients love getting a real plan before booking a single flight. Send your X-ray or CBCT and book a free video consult, and within 48 hours you receive a written, itemised GBP quote with no obligation.
How do your prices compare to what I'd pay at home?
We don't match British clinic pricing, because the gap is too large to match. We guarantee transparent, all-inclusive pricing with no hidden costs. Your written quote is your final price.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Our British patients value certainty over haggling, your written quote is your final price. Book a free video consult for transparent, all-inclusive GBP pricing with no hidden costs and nothing added later.
Treatment & Clinical
30 questions
How many trips do I need?
Most full-mouth cases are completed in a single 7-10 day trip. Some complex cases benefit from a short second visit of 3-5 days after 4-6 months healing. This is decided during your free video consult.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Most of our British patients fly in once and fly home with new teeth. A free video consult maps your exact trip plan, so you book flights and time off around a real timeline, not a guess.
How many days will I spend in the clinic?
Day 1: Rest. Day 2: Assessment, CBCT, Digital Smile Design. Day 3: Surgery plus temporary teeth. Days 4-7: Recovery (clinic 10 min from hotel). Days 8-9: Follow-up. Day 10: Travel clearance.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Our 25+ super-specialists run your whole stay on one campus, with the clinic just 10 minutes from your hotel. Book a free video consult to receive your day-by-day schedule before you ever leave the UK.
Can I fly on day 10?
Yes. By day 10, you have temporary teeth and clearance to travel. Avoid strenuous activity for 2 weeks, and keep to a soft-food diet for the first 2-4 weeks. Your temporary prosthesis is designed for normal function.
Why Stunning Dentistry
You leave New Delhi with functional teeth and written travel clearance, not loose ends. A free video consult confirms your case-specific timeline so day 10 is a confident flight home, not a worry.
When do I get my final permanent teeth?
Either before your departure (for cases that osseointegrate quickly) or couriered to your British dentist after 4-6 months of osseointegration. You have comfortable temporary teeth in place throughout.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Whether your finals are fitted before departure or couriered to your dentist back home in the UK, you are never without comfortable teeth. Book a free video consult to see exactly how your case sequences.
What if I have severe bone loss?
There are multiple solutions: bone grafting (adds 3-4 weeks), zygomatic implants (avoids grafting), and pterygoid implants. Dr. Priyank Sethi specialises in complex cases. A free video consult identifies the right option.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Severe bone loss is routine here, not a dead end. Dr. Priyank Sethi handles complex zygomatic and grafting cases other clinics decline. A free video consult and 3D CBCT scan show which option fits your jaw.
Is the procedure painful?
Conscious sedation eliminates intra-operative pain. Most patients report mild discomfort for 2-3 days post-op, managed with standard painkillers. Many patients stop medication after day one.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Many British patients dread the chair more than the cost. Our sedation protocols keep you comfortable, and our super-specialists do this daily. Book a free video consult to talk sedation options for your case.
Can you fix failed implants from another clinic?
Yes. We regularly treat patients whose implants failed elsewhere, whether in the UK or other overseas clinics. We assess via CBCT, remove failed implants if needed, and design a revision plan.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We are the team British patients turn to when an implant fails back home. Our specialists handle revision work other clinics will not touch. A free video consult and CBCT scan assess what can be saved and rebuilt.
What if I need a root canal or extraction too?
All pre-implant work (extractions, root canals, gum treatment) is handled in-house by our specialists. It is factored into your treatment plan and timeline from the start. No referrals.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Every extraction, root canal, and gum step is handled in-house by our 25+ super-specialists, so you are never bounced between offices. Book a free video consult for one plan that covers all of it from the start.
What's the difference between All-on-4 and All-on-6?
All-on-4 uses 4 implants per arch, an efficient and well-documented approach (since 1998). All-on-6 uses 6 implants for cases with heavier bite forces, parafunction (grinding), or thicker bone. Stunning Dentistry recommends based on your CBCT.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Our specialists choose All-on-4 or All-on-6 from your actual bone and bite, not a fixed package, using the same systems trusted in the UK. Book a free video consult and CBCT scan for a recommendation made for you.
What's the difference between zirconia and acrylic prosthesis?
Zirconia is ceramic, tooth-coloured, stain-resistant, and lasts 10+ years. Acrylic is a lower-cost interim, used as the temporary teeth during osseointegration. Stunning Dentistry's All-on-4 includes monolithic zirconia as the final prosthesis, not acrylic.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Stunning Dentistry gives you a monolithic zirconia final, not a budget acrylic finish, on India's largest dental hospital's standards. A free video consult and itemised quote show exactly what materials your case includes.
What's the difference between Straumann and Nobel Biocare?
Both are top-tier Swiss and Swedish implant brands with comparable success rates (>97% at 10 years). Straumann uses titanium-zirconium with SLActive surface, while Nobel Biocare uses titanium with TiUnite surface. The choice depends on bone quality and surgical preference.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We place the same Straumann and Nobel Biocare systems used in the UK, and our specialists pick the right one for your bone. Book a free video consult to learn which implant suits your case and why.
Can I have the same teeth I lost?
Tooth-shape, shade, and proportion are matched to your facial structure via Digital Smile Design. We can replicate the exact look of natural teeth or design an upgraded smile. A mock-up is shown before final fabrication.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your smile is designed around your own face with Digital Smile Design, then shown to you before anything is made permanent. Book a free video consult to preview the look you want before you commit.
What if I don't like the temporary teeth?
Temporaries are adjustable. We refine shade, shape, and tooth proportion based on your feedback during your stay. The final zirconia prosthesis is fabricated only after you approve the temporary.
Why Stunning Dentistry
You approve the temporaries before your zirconia finals are ever fabricated, so the look is yours, not ours. Book a free video consult to understand how your smile is refined during your stay.
Can I eat normally with implants?
After full osseointegration (4-6 months), yes. You can eat steaks, apples, and nuts, anything natural teeth handle. During the first 4 weeks, soft foods are recommended to protect healing implants.
Why Stunning Dentistry
The goal is eating steak and apples again, confidently. Our super-specialists plan for real-world function from day one. Book a free video consult to talk through your recovery and how your teeth will feel.
Will my speech change?
Temporarily, yes. In the first week with new teeth, slight lisping or word-shape adjustments are common. Almost all patients report fully normal speech by week 2-3.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A short adjustment period is normal, and our specialists guide you through it, with full records sent to your dentist back home in the UK. Book a free video consult to know exactly what to expect after surgery.
Will the implants set off airport scanners?
No. Modern dental implants are titanium and do not trigger airport metal detectors or millimetre-wave scanners. We provide an implant card for your records, useful for medical settings such as MRI compatibility.
Why Stunning Dentistry
You travel without worry, and we hand you an implant card for your records, useful in any medical setting. Book a free video consult to understand the documentation that travels home with you to the UK.
Can I have an MRI with implants?
Yes. Titanium dental implants are MRI-safe. They produce minor local artefacts on facial MRI but do not contraindicate the scan. Always inform the radiographer.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your titanium implants are MRI-safe, and you leave with an implant card for your records. Book a free video consult to learn how your full medical documentation is prepared for your British doctors.
Will the implants need replacing?
A successfully osseointegrated implant lasts decades, often a lifetime. The prosthetic crown or bridge sitting on top wears down over 10-20 years and may need replacement. The implant fixture itself rarely needs replacement.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A well-integrated implant can last decades, backed by our written lifetime warranty rather than a vague promise. Book a free video consult to understand the warranty and long-term care that come with your case.
What's the success rate at 10 years?
Straumann and Nobel Biocare implants show >97% survival at 10 years in published literature. Our internal 924-case registry tracks comparable outcomes, verified annually by NABH audit.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We back our outcomes with a 924-case registry verified by NABH audit, at India's largest dental hospital. Book a free video consult to see how our published, accredited results apply to a case like yours.
Can teenagers get implants?
Generally not. Jaw growth must be complete (typically age 18-21). Younger patients use orthodontics or temporary solutions until skeletal maturity. Pre-treatment CBCT and growth assessment confirm readiness.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We will tell you honestly if now is not the right time, with growth assessment first. Our 25+ super-specialists give straight answers, not a hard sell. Book a free video consult and CBCT scan for an honest readiness check.
Can elderly patients get implants?
Yes. Age alone is not a contraindication. Heart conditions, blood thinners, diabetes, and bone density are factors, all assessed in pre-treatment medical clearance.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Many of our British patients are in their 60s, 70s, and beyond, on blood thinners and heart medication, managed not feared. A free video consult and medical clearance map exactly what your case needs.
Are there any conditions that disqualify me?
Active cancer treatment, uncontrolled diabetes, recent cardiac events (within 6 months), bisphosphonate therapy (some forms), and active untreated periodontal disease may delay or modify treatment. A pre-treatment evaluation confirms suitability.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Rather than a flat no, our specialists assess what can be modified, delayed, or worked around for your specific health. Book a free video consult and pre-treatment evaluation for an honest, case-specific answer.
What if I'm a smoker?
Smoking reduces implant success rates by 5-10%. We strongly encourage quitting 2 weeks before surgery and not resuming until osseointegration is complete (4-6 months). Smokers are still treated, with outcomes simply slightly less predictable.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Smokers are welcome here, and our super-specialists plan realistically around it rather than turning you away. Book a free video consult to talk through how smoking affects your specific case and timeline.
What about diabetes?
Well-controlled diabetes (HbA1c <7%) is not a contraindication. Uncontrolled diabetes (HbA1c >8%) significantly impairs healing. We require recent HbA1c results from your British GP or family doctor before treatment.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Diabetes is common among our British patients and is managed, not feared, with your HbA1c reviewed up front. Book a free video consult and we will tell you exactly what clearance your case needs.
What if I grind my teeth (bruxism)?
Bruxism is managed with a custom night-guard included in your treatment plan. Heavy bruxers may benefit from All-on-6 (over All-on-4) for additional implant support. Botox is also offered for masseter management.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Bruxism is planned for, with a night-guard included and All-on-6 considered for heavy grinders. Book a free video consult so our specialists can build the right protection into your treatment plan.
Will I need bone grafting?
Maybe. Many patients have lost bone after years of missing teeth. We assess bone volume on CBCT. If it is insufficient, the options are a graft (adds 3-4 weeks healing), zygomatic implants (no graft needed), or shorter implants.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Lost bone is one of the most common things we solve, with graft-free zygomatic options when needed. A free video consult and CBCT scan show your bone volume and the right path for your jaw.
What's a sinus lift?
When upper-back teeth are missing, the maxillary sinus often expands downward, leaving insufficient bone for implants. A sinus lift adds bone graft material below the sinus floor to allow standard implant placement.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A sinus lift is routine work for our super-specialists, letting us place implants where other clinics say there is no bone. Book a free video consult and CBCT scan to see if your case needs one.
What's guided surgery?
A 3D printing surgical guide based on CBCT data ensures implants are placed within 0.5mm of plan. It reduces surgery time, increases predictability, and is included in every Stunning Dentistry implant case.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Every Stunning Dentistry implant case includes 3D-guided surgery for sub-millimetre accuracy, the same precision used in the UK. Book a free video consult and CBCT scan to plan your placement before surgery day.
What's CBCT and why do I need one?
Cone-Beam CT is a 3D scan with low radiation. It maps your bone, nerves, sinuses, and existing teeth, allowing accurate implant placement. It is mandatory for every implant case at Stunning Dentistry.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A CBCT scan is mandatory for every case here because guesswork has no place in your jaw. Book a free video consult and 3D CBCT scan for an honest, accurate read on your bone, nerves, and options.
What sedation options are available?
Local anaesthesia (standard for single implants), oral conscious sedation (most full-arch cases), IV sedation (anxious patients or longer cases), and general anaesthesia in our partner hospital (rare, for medical reasons).
Why Stunning Dentistry
From local anaesthesia to IV sedation, our super-specialists tailor comfort to you, including a partner hospital for medical cases. Book a free video consult to choose the sedation that suits your case and nerves.
Travel & Logistics
20 questions
Do I need a visa for India?
Yes. British citizens apply for an Indian Medical e-Visa (180-day single entry). We provide a hospital authorisation letter. Processing takes 4-7 business days online. Cost around £30-£50.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Most British patients are surprised how simple the e-Visa is once you have the right paperwork. Book a free video consult and we issue the hospital authorisation letter your application needs, then guide you step by step.
How do I get to the clinic from the airport?
Our team arranges airport pickup. Stunning Dentistry's two clinics are in central New Delhi. Greater Kailash (South Delhi) is 10-15 minutes from major hotels. Netaji Subhash Place (North Delhi) serves North Delhi patients.
Why Stunning Dentistry
You land tired after a long flight, and a stranger at the airport is the last thing you want to figure out. We arrange your pickup to a central New Delhi clinic, and when you book a free video consult your patient coordinator maps the whole arrival for you.
Where will I stay?
Partner 4-star hotels with patient discounts (£30-£60/night). Options range from budget to luxury. Your patient coordinator handles bookings near whichever clinic location you're treated at.
Why Stunning Dentistry
You should not be hunting hotels in a new city while planning treatment. Your dedicated coordinator books discounted partner 4-star rooms near your clinic, so book a free video consult and we handle your stay end to end.
What's the weather like in New Delhi?
October-March: 15-30°C, pleasant and recommended for dental travel. April-June: 30-45°C, hot. July-September: monsoon, humid. We recommend October-March for comfort during recovery.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Healing is far more comfortable in pleasant October-to-March weather, and British patients tell us it makes the trip easier. Book a free video consult and we will time your dates to the season that suits your recovery best.
Can my partner or family come with me?
Yes. Many patients travel with a partner or family member. They can attend appointments and help during recovery. Hotel costs are separate. Companion meals and transport can be arranged together.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Many British patients bring a partner or family member, and we welcome them through every appointment. Book a free video consult and your coordinator arranges companion meals, transport, and hotel so you are supported the whole way.
Is New Delhi safe for tourists?
Central and South Delhi (where our clinics and partner hotels are) are well-developed. Standard precautions apply: licensed taxis, bottled water, registered restaurants. Your patient coordinator advises on day-to-day logistics.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Our clinics and partner hotels sit in well-developed central and South Delhi, and your coordinator advises on day-to-day logistics so you always feel oriented. Book a free video consult and we walk you through what to expect on the ground.
What should I pack for my dental trip?
Comfortable loose clothing, prescribed medications, dental records (digital is fine), phone charger with Indian (Type D/M) adapter, and travel insurance. We send a detailed packing checklist after dates are confirmed.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A little preparation makes the whole trip smoother, and you should never have to guess what to bring. Book a free video consult and once dates are confirmed we send you a detailed, the UK-specific packing checklist.
How do I get an Indian SIM card?
Most patients use international roaming on their British SIM. If staying 14+ days, an Airtel or Jio prepaid SIM is available at the airport (passport + visa required). Our coordinator assists if needed.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Staying connected back home in the UK matters while you travel, and you have options either way. Book a free video consult and your coordinator helps you sort roaming or a local SIM so reaching family is never a worry.
Is tap water safe to drink?
No. Bottled mineral water for drinking and brushing is recommended throughout your stay. Restaurants serve bottled or filtered water by default. Hotel mini-bars include complimentary mineral water.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Small comforts like reliable water keep your recovery on track, and your hotel and our partner restaurants take care of it. Book a free video consult and your coordinator briefs you on staying well throughout your stay.
What's the food like? Can I eat normally?
Indian cuisine is varied. Continental, Italian, and pan-Asian options are available throughout South Delhi. Post-surgery soft-food choices include dal, soup, idli, scrambled eggs, and pasta. Coordinator provides restaurant recommendations.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Eating well, including gentle soft foods after surgery, is part of recovering comfortably. Book a free video consult and your coordinator shares restaurant recommendations near your clinic so meals are one less thing to plan.
Will I be able to handle the heat?
Most British patients find New Delhi heat manageable in October-March. April-September is hot, and recovery in an air-conditioned hotel and clinic is comfortable. Walking outdoors is limited to morning/evening.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Recovery in air-conditioned hotel and clinic keeps you comfortable, and most British patients find Delhi very manageable. Book a free video consult and we time your dates to the cooler months so the climate works in your favour.
Do I need vaccinations?
Routine vaccinations (tetanus, hep A, hep B, typhoid) are recommended for any India travel. Consult your British GP / family doctor 4-6 weeks before travel. Yellow fever certificate required only if arriving from a yellow-fever country.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A quick chat with your British GP before you fly puts your mind at ease about routine vaccinations. Book a free video consult and we give you a clear pre-travel checklist so nothing is left to the last minute.
What about travel insurance?
Standard travel insurance is recommended for trip cancellation and medical emergencies. Note: most travel insurance excludes elective dental treatment, but covers unrelated health emergencies during your trip.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Knowing exactly what your cover does and does not include avoids surprises before you leave the UK. Book a free video consult and your coordinator helps you understand the right insurance to carry for your trip.
Can I take time off work?
Most full-mouth patients book 2 weeks off (10-14 days). Single-implant patients can manage with 1 week. Patient coordinators provide medical-leave letters if your British employer requires documentation.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Planning your leave is easier when you know realistic recovery windows for your case. Book a free video consult and we will outline your timeline and provide medical-leave letters if your British employer needs documentation.
How far in advance should I book?
Standard booking is 6-8 weeks ahead. Allows time for visa, e-visa, flights, and any pre-treatment British medical clearance. Urgent cases (in-pain) can be accommodated within 2 weeks.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Booking 6 to 8 weeks ahead gives visa, flights, and any British clearance room to fall into place without stress. Book a free video consult and your coordinator builds the full timeline around your dates, urgent in-pain cases included.
What flights are available from the UK?
Direct flights from London, Manchester, Edinburgh, and Birmingham to New Delhi (DEL) operated by Air India, Qantas, Singapore Airlines, and others. Travel time 13-15 hours. Common cost £800-£1,300 return economy.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Direct routes from London, Manchester, Edinburgh, and Birmingham make the journey straightforward, and you keep the savings in GBP. Book a free video consult and your coordinator helps you line up flights that fit your treatment dates.
Should I fly business class for recovery?
Optional. Business class adds £2,300-£3,800 each way. Most patients fly economy and prioritise the saving. Window seat with neck pillow and noise-cancelling headphones generally suffices.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Most British patients fly economy and put the saving toward their treatment, and recover just fine. Book a free video consult for an honest, itemised quote so you can decide where your GBP is best spent.
Are there direct flights to Delhi from regional the UK?
Direct from major cities only. Regional British patients typically connect via Dubai, Doha, or Singapore. Patient coordinator assists with itinerary suggestions.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Even from regional the UK, a simple connection through Dubai, Doha, or Singapore gets you to Delhi comfortably. Book a free video consult and your coordinator helps map an itinerary that suits where you are flying from.
Will jet lag affect my treatment?
Day 1 is reserved for rest precisely for jet-lag recovery. Treatment day (Day 3) is timed to align with your local rhythm. Most patients adapt within 48-72 hours.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We build a rest day into your stay precisely so jet lag never compromises your treatment. Book a free video consult and we will schedule your appointments around your recovery so you arrive at the chair feeling ready.
Can I extend my stay for tourism?
Yes. Visa is valid for 180 days. Many patients combine treatment with travel: Agra (Taj Mahal), Jaipur, Goa, Kerala. Patient coordinator helps plan post-treatment travel that's compatible with your healing timeline.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your 180-day visa leaves plenty of room to see the Taj Mahal, Jaipur, or Goa once you are healing well. Book a free video consult and your coordinator helps plan travel that stays compatible with your recovery timeline.
Aftercare & Warranty
28 questions
What happens after I return home?
Your British dentist receives your full clinical file within 24 hours of departure. Your case manager calls Day 7, Day 30, and Month 3. For any concern, WhatsApp is acknowledged within 4 hours, 24/7.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Most British patients worry about being left alone once they fly home. Your case manager and 24/7 WhatsApp line stay with you for life, not just the trip. Book a free video consult to see the full aftercare plan.
How does the lifetime warranty work?
The lifetime warranty covers all implant failures and prosthetic defects. If an implant fails due to manufacturing or surgical factors, we replace it at no cost. If a crown chips or breaks, we replace it. It is valid for life.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A written lifetime warranty on implants and prosthetics is rare, and Stunning Dentistry puts it in writing for every British patient. Book a free video consult to get your case-specific warranty terms in plain language.
What if my local dentist hasn't heard of Stunning Dentistry?
We provide complete clinical records, 3D CBCT, implant serial numbers, prosthetic specs, and post-op instructions. Direct consultation with Dr. Sethi via WhatsApp or Zoom is available if your dentist has questions.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your local dentist does not need to know us, only your records, and our 25+ super-specialists hand over a complete file plus direct access to Dr. Sethi. Book a free video consult to see exactly what travels home with you.
How often do I need check-ups?
Year 1: quarterly remote video check-ups. Year 2 and beyond: annual remote review. Your local British dentist handles routine 6-month hygiene visits. For concerns, you have 24/7 contact with our team.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Quarterly reviews in year one mean nothing slips through the cracks while you settle back home in the UK. Your routine hygiene stays local, the specialist oversight stays with us. Book a free video consult to walk through your check-up schedule.
What if something goes wrong 5 years later?
The warranty does not expire. If an implant fails after 5 years due to a manufacturing defect, we replace it. A new crown after normal wear (10+ years) is discussed at a reduced rate. You have lifetime support.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Five years on, the warranty still stands, which is the kind of long-term backing British patients rarely hear about. Book a free video consult to understand precisely what your written lifetime warranty covers and for how long.
Do I need to come back to India for follow-ups?
For routine follow-ups, no. Remote video reviews handle 95% of aftercare. Physical adjustments are handled by your local British dentist using our records. A return trip is only needed for major revisions, which are rare.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Most British patients never need a second flight, since remote reviews and your local dentist handle the vast majority of follow-up. Book a free video consult to see how little travel your case will actually require.
How do I clean implant teeth?
Brush twice daily with a soft-bristle brush and floss daily. Interdental brushes (TePe) are recommended for All-on-4 prostheses, and water flossers (Waterpik) help too. Have an annual professional cleaning at your British dentist.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Clear, simple hygiene guidance keeps your implants healthy for decades, and our team coaches you on exactly the routine for your prosthesis. Book a free video consult to get an aftercare plan built around your specific case.
What's a hygienist visit cost in the UK after treatment?
£80-£150 per cleaning at standard British rates, recommended every 6 months. Hygiene appointments are claimable on private health insurance (extras cover) up to your annual limit.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Even with local hygiene visits factored in, treating with us still saves British patients heavily in GBP versus implants back home, and those cleanings are claimable on your extras cover. Book a free video consult for an honest itemised quote.
Can my British dentist remove my prosthesis?
Yes. We provide retrieval instructions and prosthetic torque values. British dentists familiar with Straumann or Nobel Biocare prosthetics can remove and re-attach the prosthesis for cleaning or repair.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Because we use the same Straumann and Nobel Biocare systems trusted in the UK, your local dentist can service your prosthesis with our torque values in hand. Book a free video consult to see how seamlessly your care continues at home.
What if a tooth chips on my prosthesis?
Minor chips are repaired in-clinic by your British dentist using composite. For larger fractures or crown failures, we courier a replacement and your British dentist installs it. Both options are covered by warranty.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A chip is never a crisis with us, since minor repairs happen locally and larger ones are couriered and covered by your written warranty. Book a free video consult to understand exactly what your warranty protects.
How long does the prosthesis last?
Monolithic zirconia lasts 15-20+ years. Layered zirconia lasts 10-15 years, since the layered ceramic is the wear surface. A PMMA temporary lasts 1-2 years and is already replaced by zirconia in your final case.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your final monolithic zirconia prosthesis is built to last 15 to 20 years or more, the standard you would expect anywhere in the UK. Book a free video consult to see the materials and lifespan planned for your case.
Can the prosthesis be remade in different shade?
Yes. After osseointegration is complete and the prosthesis is stable, a shade adjustment is possible, typically as part of a planned upgrade visit, charged at material cost only.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your smile stays adaptable, and any future shade change is charged at material cost only, not a fresh markup. Book a free video consult to preview your Digital Smile Design before anything is made.
What's the warranty on the abutment?
Lifetime, the same as the implant fixture. The abutment is the connector between implant and crown. Replacement is at no cost if it fails or fractures.
Why Stunning Dentistry
The abutment carries the same lifetime warranty as the implant fixture, so every connecting part of your restoration is backed in writing. Book a free video consult to get your full case-specific warranty terms.
What if I break a temporary tooth before final fitting?
Contact your patient coordinator immediately. We courier a replacement temporary or arrange for a local dentist to print a same-day temporary based on your STL files, which we share securely.
Why Stunning Dentistry
A broken temporary never strands you, since we courier a replacement or share your STL files so a local dentist can print one same-day. Book a free video consult to see how your records keep you covered worldwide.
Are night guards included?
Custom night guards are included for All-on-4, All-on-6, and All-on-8 patients. They are strongly recommended to protect the prosthetic from grinding wear. Replacement night guards are available at cost.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Custom night guards are included for All-on-4, 6 and 8 British patients, protecting the prosthesis you flew to New Delhi to receive. Book a free video consult to confirm what is included in your case.
How is osseointegration confirmed?
At 4-6 months post-surgery, your British dentist takes a periapical X-ray and tests implant stability with a torque wrench (35 Ncm minimum). Confirmation triggers the final prosthesis fit.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Confirmation of osseointegration is done locally by your British dentist using a simple X-ray and torque test, so you stay in control at home. Book a free video consult to see how your healing is verified step by step.
What's an ISQ test?
The Implant Stability Quotient is measured with a Resonance Frequency Analysis device (Osstell). Numbers above 70 indicate strong osseointegration. We perform ISQ at the time of implant placement and at the osseointegration check.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We measure implant stability with Osstell ISQ at placement and at check, a level of objective verification not every clinic bothers with. Book a free video consult to see the technology behind your treatment.
Will I always need antibiotics around dental visits?
For routine cleanings, no. Antibiotic prophylaxis is required only for patients with specific cardiac conditions, prosthetic joint replacements, or immune compromise, and it is discussed with your British dentist.
Why Stunning Dentistry
You will not be over-prescribed, since antibiotics around dental visits are reserved only for specific medical conditions and decided with your local dentist. Book a free video consult to map exactly what your case needs.
How do I store my dental records?
We provide a digital folder with CBCT, intraoral scans, X-rays, surgical notes, and prosthetic records. Store it on the cloud (Drive, Dropbox) for access. Hard copies are posted on request.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your complete digital records, CBCT, scans and surgical notes, are yours to keep and travel with you anywhere in the UK. Book a free video consult to see the full file you receive.
What if Stunning Dentistry closes?
The implant warranty is held by Straumann and Nobel Biocare directly, so replacement is honoured at any clinic worldwide using their materials. The prosthetic warranty is on Stunning Dentistry, and records are escrowed for continuity.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your implant warranty sits directly with Straumann or Nobel Biocare and is honoured at any clinic worldwide, while your records are escrowed for continuity. Book a free video consult to understand how protected you truly are.
Can I take antibiotics with alcohol?
No. Avoid alcohol while on the prescribed antibiotic course, typically 5-7 days. Most antibiotic-alcohol interactions cause nausea or reduced effectiveness.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Straightforward, honest aftercare guidance is part of how our specialists look after British patients well beyond the surgery itself. Book a free video consult to get clear instructions tailored to your case.
Should I use mouthwash?
Use Chlorhexidine 0.2% mouthwash twice daily for the first 2 weeks, which we provide. Salt-water rinses are also recommended. Avoid alcohol-based mouthwashes during healing.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We provide the chlorhexidine rinse and a simple healing routine, so you return home back to the UK knowing exactly how to care for your new teeth. Book a free video consult to see your full recovery plan.
How often should I floss?
Daily. Around natural teeth, use standard floss. Around an All-on-4 prosthesis, TePe interdental brushes are easier than floss, and a Waterpik adds bonus flushing for hard-to-reach areas.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Easy daily cleaning around your prosthesis keeps it healthy for decades, and our team shows you the tools that work best for your case. Book a free video consult for hygiene guidance built around your restoration.
I have a metallic taste, is that normal?
A mild metallic taste for the first 24-48 hours is normal, mostly from chlorhexidine mouthwash and small bleeding. If a persistent metallic taste lasts past Week 1, report it to us.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We tell you plainly what is normal and when to flag something, the kind of honest, responsive support British patients value most. Book a free video consult to meet the team you can reach 24/7.
Do I need fluoride toothpaste?
Yes, the same as for natural teeth. Fluoride strengthens any remaining natural tooth structure and supports the soft tissues around implants. Regular adult-strength toothpaste is fine.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Caring for your new smile is simpler than most patients expect, and our specialists give you guidance suited to your specific restoration. Book a free video consult to get a clear, personalised aftercare plan.
What time should I arrive?
Arrive 30 minutes before your surgical slot, typically morning slots (08:00-09:00). This allows a pre-op vitals check, sedation review, and final consent signing.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Every detail of your surgical day is planned and explained in advance, the kind of organised, specialist-led care that puts British patients at ease. Book a free video consult to walk through your full schedule.
Will I have a face bandage?
Nomodern implant surgery does not require external bandaging. You leave with a normal facial appearance, and mild swelling is possible at 24-48 hours.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Modern implant surgery with our super-specialists means you leave with a normal appearance, not heavy bandaging, contrary to what many patients fear. Book a free video consult to get an honest picture of recovery.
Should I bring photos of teeth I want?
Yes. Reference photos are essential for Digital Smile Design. Save 5-10 examples of smiles you like, whether a celebrity, a friend, or your own old photos.
We use these in the mock-up.
Why Stunning Dentistry
You see and shape your new smile before it is made, using the reference photos you bring into your Digital Smile Design. Book a free video consult to preview the smile we will create together.
Funding & Insurance
10 questions
Are there medical financing options in the UK?
Yes. Medicard, Dentalcard, and CareCredit offer dedicated medical/dental financing for UK patients. Personal lines of credit from British banks are commonly used for large dental cases. Many patients draw on a HELOC or personal savings. Stunning Dentistry's treatment cost is typically repaid within 2-3 years from the savings versus British pricing.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Our British patients tell us the treatment usually pays for itself within 2 to 3 years from the savings versus home pricing. Book a free video consult for an itemised GBP quote you can take straight to Medicard or your bank.
Can I use my ISA or savings for overseas dental?
ISA withdrawals are allowed but are taxed as income, so most British patients instead use personal savings, a HELOC or line of credit, or medical financing through Medicard or Dentalcard. Eligible treatment may also qualify for the Medical Expense Tax Credit. We provide the British comparison quotes and GBP receipts your bank or accountant needs, at no cost.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We guide every British patient through fund-access paperwork at no cost, so the financial side never stalls your care. Book a free video consult and we will prepare the medical assessment and British comparison quotes your application needs.
What financing documents does Stunning Dentistry provide?
We provide itemised GBP invoices, written treatment plans, and British comparison quotes for any Medicard, Dentalcard, or bank financing application. Turnaround is 24-48 hours after you request documentation.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Lenders approve faster when the paperwork is clean, so we issue itemised GBP invoices, written treatment plans, and British comparison quotes within 24 to 48 hours. Book a free video consult to start your file and request your financing documents.
Does private health insurance cover anything?
Most private health insurance covers £500-£1,200/year toward major dental, which barely covers a single British implant. At Stunning Dentistry, claim what you have. It reduces out-of-pocket slightly.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your insurance rarely stretches far on major dental, but at India's largest dental hospital your GBP goes much further per implant. Book a free video consult for an honest itemised quote so you see exactly what you save out of pocket.
Are there tax deductions?
Dental treatment is generally not personally tax-deductible in the UK. If it is part of disability support or a recognised medical condition, consult your accountant. We provide itemised invoices for any tax inquiries.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We keep your documentation tidy so nothing is awkward at tax time, providing itemised GBP invoices for any inquiry your accountant raises. Book a free video consult and your written treatment plan is on file from day one.
Are there interest-free finance options?
We don't offer in-house finance, but third-party medical-finance providers such as Medicard and Dentalcard offer interest-free or low-interest packages for dental travel. Quotes are obtainable on request.
Why Stunning Dentistry
We stay independent of any one lender, so we will pull quotes from interest-free and low-interest providers like Medicard and Dentalcard for your case. Book a free video consult and we will provide the itemised GBP documents they require.
Can my employer fund this?
Some British employers offer Health Spending Accounts (HSA) or group benefit programs that may apply. Check with your HR. We provide invoices in formats suitable for any employer reimbursement.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Many British patients fund part of their care through an HSA or group benefits, and we format invoices to fit any employer scheme. Book a free video consult for an itemised GBP invoice you can hand straight to your HR.
Are there charity/community funding options?
Limited. Some community-fund programs assist with severe dental cases. Lions Club, Rotary, and similar organisations occasionally fund individual cases. We provide documentation for applications.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Where a community fund or service club can help a severe case, the right paperwork makes or breaks the application, and we prepare it for you. Book a free video consult and we will provide the documentation your application needs.
Will treatment affect my NHS records?
No. Treatment in India does not appear on British Medicare records. Your British GP or family doctor visits before and after travel are recorded as normal.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Your care with us stays private and separate from your NHS records, with your British doctor visits recorded as normal back home. Book a free video consult and we will send full records to your British dentist whenever you want them.
How do I claim post-treatment British dentist visits?
Hygiene cleanings, X-rays, and any local dental work after treatment are claimable on your standard extended health insurance, same as before.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Routine follow-up back home stays simple, so we send your British dentist a complete record of everything done. Book a free video consult to see how seamlessly your care continues after you return to the UK.

Three differentiators. First, materials: Straumann and Nobel Biocare only, no off-brands. Second, specialist depth: 25+ super-specialists versus a typical 2-3. Third, an outcomes registry: published 924-case warranty data, NABH-audited annually.
Why Stunning Dentistry
Straumann and Nobel Biocare systems, 25+ super-specialists and published 924-case warranty data set us apart from typical Indian clinics. Book a free video consult for an honest, case-specific answer on what your treatment involves.
