Dr. Vivek Gaur | Dental Implant Specialist, Kaushambi, Ghaziabad — Serving International Patients

India has established itself as one of the leading destinations for medical and dental treatment among international patients — not just because of cost advantages, but because a specific tier of specialists in India offer clinical expertise and implant systems comparable to those available in the UK, USA, Australia, or the Gulf.

For patients considering dental implants — particularly complex cases involving bone loss, full mouth rehabilitation, or treatment after previous implant failure — India offers access to specialists in advanced implantology at costs that are a fraction of what the same quality of care would require abroad. This guide explains how the process works practically.

Why International Patients Choose India for Implant Treatment

Cost is the most frequently cited reason, and it is a legitimate one. The economics of healthcare in India mean that surgeon time, facility costs, and prosthetic laboratory work are all priced differently than in Western countries. A full mouth rehabilitation that might cost upwards of £40,000 in the UK or $50,000 in the United States can be completed in India at a significantly lower figure, using equivalent European implant systems and the same level of specialist expertise. Even the most highest dental implant treatment in India won’t go beyond $10,000 

Beyond cost, some patients specifically seek out Dr. Vivek Gaur’s clinic in Kaushambi, Ghaziabad because the Corticobasal® and strategic implantology expertise available there is not widely accessible in their home countries. Patients who have been told they need extensive bone grafting abroad, or who have had previous implants fail, often seek a second clinical opinion from a specialist in this approach.

Starting the Process: Remote Consultation

Most international patients begin with a remote consultation before committing to travel. This can be conducted via video call. The patient shares existing dental records, recent X-rays or CBCT scans (if available), a description of the dental history, and details of any relevant medical conditions.

Based on this, the clinical team provides a preliminary assessment: whether the patient appears to be a candidate for the approach being sought, what additional imaging may be needed on arrival, and a realistic estimate of how many days or weeks in India are likely to be required.

What to Bring and What to Arrange Before Arrival

International patients should compile and share all existing dental records before or on arrival: panoramic X-rays, CBCT scans if already done, photographs, reports from previous implant failures, and documentation of any systemic health conditions and medications. This information allows the clinical team to prepare for the consultation in advance and reduces delays during the actual visit.

If a CBCT scan has not been done previously, it will typically be arranged during the first appointment at the clinic. Some patients prefer to have a CBCT done locally before travelling, which can be shared digitally.

Expected Duration: How Long Does Treatment Take?

The duration depends entirely on the treatment required. For full mouth immediate loading cases in suitable patients — where fixed provisional teeth are placed within 48 to 72 hours of surgery — the core surgical phase can be completed within the first few days. Patients typically remain or rather must remain in in India for atleast 2 weeks for surgery for initial healing followed by multiple follow-ups.

Logistics: Getting to Kaushambi, Ghaziabad

The clinic is located in Kaushambi, Ghaziabad — a well-connected location immediately adjacent to Delhi, with straightforward access from Indira Gandhi International Airport. A range of accommodation options is available nearby, from hotels to serviced apartments suitable for post-surgical recovery stays. The clinic team can provide guidance on logistics and accommodation for patients planning their visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I have my implant consultation online before travelling to India?

Yes. A preliminary remote consultation can be arranged via video call, during which you can share your existing dental records and X-rays for an initial clinical assessment. This helps determine whether travelling for treatment is appropriate for your case before you commit to the journey.

Q: How many trips to India will I need for full mouth implant treatment?

For full mouth immediate loading cases in suitable patients, the main surgical phase and provisional restoration can be completed in one trip of approximately ten to fourteen days. A second visit for the final prosthesis is usually required three to six months later, depending on the case.

Q: What implant systems are used at Dr. Vivek Gaur’s clinic?

The clinic uses the Simpladent implant system, which meets European quality standards. Details about the specific implant types appropriate for your case are discussed during the consultation, based on your bone anatomy and clinical requirements.

Q: Are post-operative follow-ups possible with my local dentist?

Yes. The treating team can provide detailed clinical documentation, radiographs, and prosthetic specifications that allow follow-up care to be coordinated with a dentist in your home country. Communication between the treating team and your local dentist is facilitated where needed.
