How much does Full Mouth Rehabilitation cost in Surat?
Depending on complexity, implant type and materials, FMR at Summirow typically ranges from ₹1.5 lakh to ₹6 lakh. After your CBCT scan you receive a written, line-by-line cost breakdown — and the price you're quoted is the price you pay. 0% EMI options up to 24 months are available.
Is the implant procedure painful?
No. Surgery is done under local anaesthesia — you feel pressure, not pain. Sedation options are available for anxious patients. Most patients manage post-operative soreness with ordinary painkillers for 2–3 days and return to routine within a week.
How long does the full treatment take?
Most cases complete in 8–16 weeks: implant surgery first, fixed temporary teeth in most cases the same day, then permanent zirconia teeth once the implants integrate with your bone (3–6 months for some cases). NRI patients can opt for a compressed 14-day surgical protocol with the final teeth fitted on a return visit or via coordinated scheduling.
I've been told I don't have enough bone. Can I still get fixed teeth?
In most cases, yes. Angled All-on-4 placement, basal implants that anchor in the strong basal bone, and zygomatic implants (anchored in the cheekbone) mean even severe bone loss rarely rules out fixed teeth. Your CBCT scan gives a definitive answer.
Am I too old for dental implants?
There is no upper age limit. We regularly treat patients in their 60s, 70s and 80s. What matters is your general health and bone condition — both of which we assess in your evaluation. Age alone should never keep you in uncomfortable dentures.
How long do implants last?
Premium implant systems (Osstem, Nobel) can last 20+ years — often a lifetime — with good oral hygiene and regular check-ups. The zirconia teeth on top typically last 10–20 years.
What is the success rate of dental implants?
Modern guided implant surgery has success rates above 95% in healthy patients. Careful case selection, 3D CBCT planning and premium implant systems — all standard at Summirow — are what keep success rates high.
Will I be without teeth during treatment?
No. Fixed or removable temporary teeth are provided throughout, and in most full-arch cases you receive fixed temporary teeth the same day as surgery. You will not go home toothless.
Can I eat normally with implant teeth?
Yes — that's the point. Once healed, fixed implant teeth restore near-natural chewing power. Patients go back to eating rotis, corn, apples, nuts — foods they'd given up for years. During healing you'll follow a soft-food diet.
What's the difference between All-on-4 and All-on-6?
Both give you a full arch of fixed teeth. All-on-4 uses four strategically angled implants — often avoiding bone grafting. All-on-6 uses six for extra strength where bone volume allows. Your CBCT scan and bite analysis determine which is right for you.
My implant failed at another clinic. Can you help?
Yes — failed-implant revision is something we handle regularly. We diagnose why it failed (usually poor planning, placement without 3D scans, or low-grade implants), let the site heal if needed, and re-plan with guided surgery. Bring your records to your evaluation.
Are dental implants safe? What about diabetes or BP?
Implant surgery is one of dentistry's most predictable procedures when properly planned. Controlled diabetes or blood pressure is usually not a barrier — we coordinate with your physician and adjust protocols. Hospital-grade sterilisation is followed for every procedure.
Why are implants better than a fixed bridge?
A bridge requires grinding down healthy neighbouring teeth and does nothing to stop bone loss under the missing tooth. Implants stand independently, preserve bone, and don't sacrifice healthy teeth — which is why they're the modern standard of care.
How do I care for my new teeth?
Brush twice daily, clean under the bridge with a water flosser or interdental brushes, and visit us every 6 months for a professional check. No soaking, no adhesives, no special routines — they're cared for like natural teeth.
I live abroad. How does treatment work for NRI patients?
Start with a free video consultation and share any X-rays you have. We pre-plan your case, confirm a written quote, and schedule a compressed 14-day surgical protocol around your travel dates. Follow-ups after you return home are handled remotely.
Does insurance or EMI cover the treatment?
We offer 0% EMI plans up to 24 months through Bajaj Finserv and HDFC. Some health insurance policies partially cover implant treatment after accidents or medical conditions — our team helps you check your policy and paperwork.
What happens at the ₹999 Smile Evaluation?
A 45-minute one-on-one with Dr. Ushma Kakkad: complete oral examination, digital X-ray + 3D CBCT scan, discussion of your goals, and a personalised written treatment plan with a line-by-line cost breakdown. If you're not a candidate, your ₹999 is fully refunded — and you keep your scan.
Why is the evaluation ₹999 and not free?
Because it isn't a sales pitch — it's a full diagnostic work-up (scan + doctor time worth ₹7,500). A small fee means Dr. Ushma's calendar stays open for patients who are serious about fixing their smile, so you get real time and real answers, not a rushed pitch.
