Myself Jason William from USA. My dental implant surgery in India through Indianhealthguru Consultants gave me a new life. Until recently, I had ignored the wisdom of not using ones teeth as bottle opener, pliers or wire cutters. Additionally I have always had the nasty habit of grinding my teeth. As a result of my ignorance and habit, my teeth came to appear as if I had suffered a terrible accident. Earlier this year, at an age of 60, it became increasingly necessary to do something to improve my dental health as I had my primary teeth missing due to advancement in old age and the dental procedures that I took years before namely dental veneers and dental bridges didn’t provide me any special benefit. The way I saw it, my choice was either full dentures or full restoration. I consulted a dental expert of my city who told that dental implants surgery would meet my requirements instead of a total dental restoration procedure that involves multiple dental tools like dental braces and dental bridges etc. Now came the cost issue as a beautiful and brilliant smile was treated as a sign of a successful personality and the expenses of dental procedures in the USA had got hiked in the last 2 years.  Because of the high cost, I opted to search an abroad location other than the USA, Internet helped me a lot in finding about abroad destinations giving cost effective dental procedures with a good quality and I was able to make a good comparison concerning the budget of treatment in various countries preferably in the East Asia like India, China, Japan, Thailand and Singapore. Finally I came to know more about India that had groups of trained doctors who assisted very well to  arrange medical treatment, hospitalization, stay and travel in India at an international standard level. And Indian medical tourism linked the space between patients of USA, UK, Europe & Africa and medical treatment providers in India. Less cost of dental implant surgery in India assured 55 % money savings plus it offered other fine hospitality facilities at suites of 5 star hotels and luxurious dental surgery hospitals at Indian metros along with holiday vacations at appealing Indian tourist resorts.

 

Having heard much of India, both as a great vacation destination and a place where excellent dental and other medical services are extensively available at a reasonable cost, India became my choice. Now I searched for online patient coordinating services and came across many websites of healthcare groups that offered foreign patients to forward their medical case details to reliable doctors and hospitals plus also provided medical trip and medical travel arrangements. In fact Indian medical tourism seemed to me an amazing concept as country of varying diversity like India, reflected its rich the rich cultural glories of the past, with values relative to geographic locations and the numerous distinctive manners, habits and food that will always remain truly Indian. I found the website of Indian HealthGuru Consultants to be the most sophisticated and informative. When I made a call Dr Dheeraj Bojwani became online and he after giving a warm introduction to himself discussed about my medical case and asked me to send all the dental x-ray reports to recommend and arrange a proper solution. I did it on the same day and received a reply from Dr. Bojwani after 3 days who recommended me a trustworthy and reputed profile of an Indian dental surgeon at Mumbai city and I was also given a choice of several 5 star hotels and accommodations for a comfortable lodging at an appealing price range.  I was also informed in my email that the recommended dental surgeon himself would call me within the next few days. The e-mail provided me all the info about my medical visa approval, flight reservation included including airport- and daily pick-up at the hotel. After reading the email I felt very confident and rather proud of myself for having availed the excellent medical tourism services of Indian Healthguru. As promised the dental surgeon called me and after giving me a short summary about dental implants provided me a date of medical appointment 2 weeks on 11 September 2008 for a short outpatient medical stay. 

It was 10 September 2008 when I arrived for dental implants surgery in India at the airport of Mumbai when I was given a phone call on my mobile, it was a patient coordinator of that healthcare group and he told that he was waiting for me right at the main gate of the airport with a taxi. When I came out of the airport I met the patient coordinator who looked like a perfect medical professional in looks and by his cordial behavior. He took me to the recommended hotel that I had chosen for an advance lodging and the place was really a fantastic one.  The warm and friendly hotel staff took care of all requirements of mine with a great attention. The hotel has a well-equipped business center with five conference rooms, offering the latest in hi-tech broadband wireless internet connectivity, PC workstations, multimedia computers, laptops, portable printers and cell phones, along with favorite food stuffs. During my medical stay in India for dental implants surgery I was picked up at my hotel every day for my scheduled treatment. On arrival at the clinic, the work started almost immediately. My first observation on the first day one was the harmony between doctor and his staff of doctors and assistants. After I reached the clinic the Indian medical staff extended a warm welcome to me and told me that they had already got the intimation of my arrival a day before and the dental surgeon who was supposed to treat with a dental implant procedure shook hands with me and took me to his cabin and told me that dental implants were basically sophisticated screws made of a medically pure metal, Titanium. These screws are placed in the jaw bone and rest under the gum for 3 – 6 months. During this time they actually fuse to the jawbone and become osseo(bone) integrated. After the appropriate healing time, the implants are uncovered and use them to replace one or more missing teeth by fabricating some sort of dental prosthesis. The doctor further told that trained dental experts, oral surgeons, prosthodontists, and periodontists performed dental implant procedure as an outpatient process under general anesthesia. An increasing number of cosmetic dentists are also placing implants in relatively simple cases. The very same day the metallic implants were inserted into my jaw bone after giving me a minor anesthesia and it took 5 hours then I was given an anti pain killer. After an interval of 3 days the second phase of the procedure was performed and the dental surgeon uncovered the implants and attached small posts that acted as anchors for the new artificial teeth, which were specially designed by dental restorative techniques.

In a very short time I felt myself as a family member of the Indian medical staff rather than a patient. Medical tourism in India really offer the best services with no waiting lists and more than sufficient hospital staff resources to look after you during your medical treatment in India. Everyone involved in my dental treatment exhibited a high degree of professionalism, which demonstrated the pride and joy they have in their chosen professions. The end result was very much above my expectations. I had hoped for good dental health with a somewhat attractive smile. One more pleasant experience along with getting dental implants surgery from an Indian dental surgeon was enjoying medical tourism! Yes I had always read and heard that India is a good destination for enjoying tourism as a number of famous tourism resorts were there at places like Kashmir, Goa and many at the shores of south Indian peninsula when I asked about it to my patient coordinator then he agreed to arrange a 4 days holiday travel to a Goa resort named Paradise beach village. I got the air ticket the next morning and flew to Goa , standing at the reception counter of the beautiful resort that had a big and magnificent conference hall that could be very well used for addressing more than 150 people for a party, conference and even a marriage party. My 4 days stay was a very happy one as I was provided a luxurious hospitality at a beautiful resort cottage in the premises of the resort compound. My place had all sorts of modern luxurious amenities that one can imagine in a five star resort more over I saw as well as enjoyed many facilities at the tourist resort like famous Indian, continental and Chinese cuisine, amusement games including water sports at the beautiful sea beaches of Goa and credit card processing services along with foreign currency exchange facility. Safety Deposit Box, Wake Up Calls, Post, Pool, Barber, Laundry, Medical, Internet, Travel Desk, Barber Shops all made me “ feel at home” I and some other tourists were provided with a jolly tourist guide who showed us the most beautiful natural spots as well as ancient monuments of Goa’s cultural heritage that were built by the Portuguese in the 13th and 14th century. Goa was one of the most beautiful places exhibiting natural beauty that I had ever seen. However, after a complete dental implants surgery in India, I now have a smile that is likely to be a matter of envy of an average 20-year-old youth. I do, at times, have a knack (and luck) for making intelligent decisions but coming to India for a dental treatment was a right decision of mine. Indianhealthguru Consultants comes with my highest recommendations to all persons. Choosing dental implants surgery in India is clearly one!
