Yes! We offer flexible payment plans and installment options for expensive treatments like braces, implants, and RCT. Discuss with our staff during consultation.

Braces use metal/ceramic brackets fixed to teeth (NPR 50,000-55,000). Clear aligners are removable, invisible trays (NPR 50,000-80,000). Aligners are more comfortable and aesthetic but braces work for all cases.

Typically 12-24 months depending on complexity. Simple cases may finish in 12 months, complex cases up to 30 months. Monthly adjustments required.

Mild discomfort for 2-3 days after installation and each adjustment. Not painful, just pressure sensation. Over-the-counter pain relievers help.

Ideal age is 10-14 years, but braces work at any age! We treat children, teenagers, and adults. It's never too late to straighten your teeth.

Yes! Retainers are included in the treatment cost at Supreme Dental Clinic. You'll receive Hawley or clear retainers after braces removal.

No! RCT is done under local anesthesia, making it painless. The procedure actually relieves your tooth pain. Most patients report it feels like getting a filling.

Anterior (front) teeth: NPR 4,500 (hand) or 9,000 (rotary). Posterior (back) teeth: NPR 5,000 (hand) or 11,000 (rotary). Crown recommended after RCT (additional cost).

Typically 2-3 visits over 1-2 weeks. First visit: cleaning and medication (60-90 min). Second visit: filling (30-45 min). Third visit: crown placement (optional).

Highly recommended, especially for back teeth. A crown protects the weakened tooth from fracture and restores full function. Without crown, tooth may break.

Hand RCT uses manual files (more affordable, 2-3 visits). Rotary RCT uses electric motor-driven files (faster, more thorough, often 1-2 visits, higher success rate but more expensive).

For back teeth: Metal (NPR 4,500) or Zirconia (NPR 18,000-23,000) for strength. For front teeth: E-max (NPR 18,000-25,000) or Zirconia for aesthetics. PFM (NPR 5,500) is good budget option for all teeth.

Metal crowns: 15-20+ years. PFM: 10-15 years. Zirconia: 15-20 years. E-max: 10-15 years. Lifespan depends on oral hygiene and care.

No, done under local anesthesia. You may feel slight sensitivity for a few days after, which is normal.

Two visits: First visit (60 min) - tooth preparation, impression, temporary crown. Second visit (30 min) - permanent crown placement and adjustment.

Normal extraction: NPR 1,200. Surgical extraction: NPR 2,500-4,000 depending on complexity and impaction level.

No pain during procedure (done under anesthesia). Mild discomfort for 3-7 days after, manageable with prescribed medication. Ice packs help reduce swelling.

Simple extraction: 3-5 days. Surgical extraction: 7-10 days. Most people return to work in 2-3 days. Follow aftercare instructions for faster healing.

Day 1-2: Soft, cold foods (ice cream, yogurt, smoothies). Day 3-7: Soft foods (soup, mashed potatoes, pasta). Avoid hard, crunchy, spicy foods and alcohol.

Professional in-office whitening: NPR 8,000-15,000 (immediate results, 3-8 shades whiter). Take-home kit: NPR 5,000-8,000 (gradual results over 1-2 weeks).

Every 6 months for normal patients. Every 3-4 months if you have gum disease or heavy tartar buildup. Scaling & polishing costs NPR 2,000.

No! This is a myth. Professional scaling is safe and doesn't harm enamel. It only removes harmful tartar and plaque that brushing can't remove.

Professional whitening: 1-3 years. Take-home kits: 6 months-2 years. Depends on diet, oral hygiene, and smoking habits. Touch-ups recommended yearly.

Single tooth implant (complete): NPR 40,000-60,000 including implant post, abutment, and crown. Full mouth implants: NPR 300,000-500,000.

Total: 4-7 months including healing time. Implant placement: 1-2 hours. Healing period: 3-6 months for bone fusion. Crown placement: 1 hour.

Yes! Implants last 20+ years, look and function like natural teeth, preserve jaw bone, and are more cost-effective long-term than bridges or dentures.

95-98% success rate. Failure is rare and usually due to infection, insufficient bone, or smoking. Proper care ensures lifetime success.
