Root Canals Goa

Dr. Gautam was exceptional. I lost my dentures in the water and had it replaced by him the same day. His service is one not to be missed if you're looking for a dentist. His service is very reasonably priced and considering he knew we were tourist he didn't double the cost and overcharge us. I am planning a next trip to Goa for a bridge and implants with him.

I went to SmilePro and had crowns and implants done instead of teeth whitening as I’d originally intended. I decided to book an appointment with them because of the positive feedback online. I’m returning in a few weeks to finish off the implants. Everything looked lovely when I got there. The dentist was really good. I had originally gone for teeth whitening and a few veneers, after my consultation, it was decided that implants and crowns would be a better option, I was given time to go away and think it over before I made a commitment to having the work completed. I was quite nervous, but he put me at ease.

I went to Dr Hubert Gomes' clinic for treatment and was very impressed with their professionalism. He has an excellent team of dentists, technicians and nurses working alongside him. My treatment was painless and completed within 8 days. I had a permanent bridge fitted plus 4 root canal fillings. I will be returning next year to have my lower teeth treated. I chose Dr Hubert Gomes clinic from the internet, reading the positive reviews from other UK patients. I have not been disappointed but very impressed.

I didn't like my smile and had always been self-conscious from a child, covering my mouth when I smiled. I'm 51 now and had the money to sort my teeth out. I went to Kenkre expecting to have porcelain veneers top and bottom, but because of my bite, Dr Shilpa said they wouldn't last, (my top teeth would end up taking the bottom veneers off and vice versa), although she did say she would do it. She recommended I had crowns top and bottom but my front two top teeth didn't have strong enough roots. In the end, it was decided, (with a consultant involved too), that I should have two implants and 4 crowns at the top and 6 veneers on the bottom. I had two visits before anything happened to agree on the treatment and have an X-ray for bone density. The first visit involved 1.5 hours for 4 root canals. The second visit was the two implants and grinding the bottom teeth ready for crowns and some temporary teeth fitted, (which looked great by the way). This visit lasted 5.5 hours but was necessary to fit in with my flights. Six days later I went to get my teeth fitted and the temporaries were taken off. This lasted about an hour and when the teeth were fitted it was amazing - I couldn't believe it. I'd got the teeth I should have had. Don't think twice - have the treatment! It's pain-free and Dr Shilpa spoke excellent English and communicated with me constantly. It was a third of the price in England. My teeth look very natural. It's a very professional practice that obviously is focussed on the customer from start to finish. I did a lot of research before I went and felt that Dr Shilpa at Kenkre Dental was the one dentist who seemed to understand exactly what I was looking for. I travelled 40 minutes there and back to see her, but it was well worth the journey as the prices were cheaper than those dentists in Candolim or Calangute. A week after the treatment there was swelling at the implant area but this is the natural healing process and it subsides after 2 weeks. It's about 1/4 of the price in England. I did my research in England and contacted various clinics around the Candolin/Calangute area but felt a connection with Dr Shilpa who understood what I wanted and sent me pictures and reviews from past patients. The clinic was hard to find, on the first floor of a block of units. I took a taxi and had to get the driver to call her to give directions. The taxi isn't expensive from Calangute, (£12 return approx), and the driver waited for me, (even on the 5.5 hour visit!). When I first met Dr Shilpa, (with my husband), I knew immediately that I'd made the right choice. She was so professional and the surgery was clean. She was obviously well educated in her field. There was no awkwardness with money as I paid at the end of the treatment. She didn't try to up-sell and even did a scale and polish on my husband - with no charge which is unusual in India when everyone appears to be wanting you to part with your cash! She even said that she'd prefer to split the treatment into two visits, ie a visit, say, 6 months later but I didn't want this so she said she'd do the 5.5 hours on the Saturday to accommodate. She still messages me now to ask how I'm getting on. Very caring and lovely lady who I have total trust and faith in that she will do an excellent job for you. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her practise and will definitely go again for any further treatment I may need. Thank you, Dr Shilpa, for making me smile!

I have had passable caps done on my front two teeth since they were chipped in a car accident when I was 7. I really needed them crowned as the caps constantly chipped or came off. I asked Dr Rosemond & Prof Aquaviva what they thought of doing crowns. It was scary as it was my front teeth! What a result. I wish I had done it years ago. My teeth are strong and look fantastic. Good value? I couldn't put a price on this - I am so happy :) Absolutely superb. From start to finish I felt cared for and listened to. They took "real" time with me. I did not feel like a number with this clinic. It is beautifully clean & hygenic. The staff are so sweet. I have recommended this clinic to all of my friends and family, something I rarely do. Dr R is known as the "Singing Dentist" - he hums along to whatever is playing - it totally takes your mind off things! All in all, a great experience - as far as dentistry goes!
