How do I prepare for my first dental visit?
+

Simply arrive 5 to 10 minutes early! Bring any previous X-rays, medical records, or medication lists. Brush beforehand, and Dr. Heena Khan will take care of the rest.

Are strict sterilisation standards followed at the clinic?
+

Yes! We use hospital-grade Class-B autoclave sterilisation for all instruments, single-use disposables for every patient, and continuous air purification to ensure 100% safety.

Where is the clinic located in Lucknow?
+

We are located at F-723, near Alamnagar Railway Station Road, Block F, Rajajipuram, Lucknow. Open Mon to Sun (10 AM to 2 PM & 5 PM to 10 PM).

Are dental implants painful?
+

No! Implants are placed under complete local anesthesia, making the procedure pain-free. Most patients report feeling only mild pressure, and recovery takes just 2 to 3 days. Learn more on our dental implants treatment page.

Do dental implants last a lifetime?
+

Yes! Biocompatible Grade-5 titanium implants integrate permanently into your jawbone. With routine brushing and checkups, the titanium post lasts a lifetime.

Are dental implants safe for senior citizens?
+

Yes! Age is not a limit. As long as jawbone density is sufficient and health conditions like diabetes are managed, implants are completely safe for older adults.

Is root canal treatment (RCT) painful?
+

No! Modern RCT is painless under effective local anesthesia. In fact, root canal treatment relieves the severe pain caused by tooth infection. Read details on our root canal treatment page.

Can a root canal be completed in a single visit?
+

Yes! Uninfected or mildly inflamed teeth can often be completed in a single 45 to 60 minute sitting. Infected teeth may require 2 visits for thorough disinfection.

Is a crown (cap) necessary after a root canal?
+

Yes! A protective ceramic or zirconia crown is strongly recommended for back teeth to prevent fractures and restore full chewing strength. See porcelain & zirconia crown options.

Are clear aligners better than metal braces?
+

Yes, for aesthetics and convenience! Aligners are virtually invisible and removable for eating. However, metal braces are better for severe misalignment or complex bite issues.

How long does braces treatment take?
+

Usually 12 to 18 months! Mild spacing takes 6 to 12 months, while complex bite corrections take up to 24 months with regular monthly adjustments.

Is professional teeth whitening safe for enamel?
+

Yes! Clinical teeth whitening uses peroxide gels that lift deep stains without scratching or damaging your natural enamel.

Do teeth whitening results last long?
+

Yes! In-clinic whitening results last 1 to 3 years depending on tea, coffee, and food habits. Routine cleanings help maintain maximum brightness.

Is tooth extraction painful?
+

No! Extractions are performed under complete local anesthesia. You will feel mild pressure as the tooth is gently removed, with rapid healing over 3 to 5 days.

What should I do for severe emergency tooth pain?
+

Call us immediately at +91 96963 83623! Rinse with warm salt water, apply a cold compress to your cheek, and visit our Rajajipuram clinic for same-day relief.

Does teeth scaling or cleaning loosen teeth?
+

No! Ultrasonic scaling gently vibrates away plaque and tartar without touching tooth enamel. Removing calculus actually saves your teeth from falling out.

Should baby milk teeth be treated if they fall out later?
+

Yes! Baby teeth guide permanent teeth into correct alignment and aid speech. Treating milk teeth prevents painful infections and severe crowding later.
