Help Centre & Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about navigating ReplaceRoots, understanding dental implant treatments, checking clinic credentials, and estimated costs in India.
For Patients & Treatment Discovery
How does ReplaceRoots verify dental implant clinics?
Our verification team performs mandatory checks on every listed clinic: confirming the lead surgeon's BDS/MDS degree certificates, active state Dental Council of India (DCI) registration, in-clinic sterilization protocols (Class B autoclaves), and physical operational existence. Only clinics that satisfy these checks receive our Verified checkmark.
Are the implant prices shown on the platform fixed or estimates?
Prices shown (e.g. ₹25,000 for single tooth implant, ₹2,00,000 for All-on-4) are realistic starting benchmarks submitted by verified clinics. Final clinical pricing is determined after your in-person clinical examination, bone assessment, and 3D CBCT scan evaluation.
Does ReplaceRoots charge patients for searching or booking?
No. ReplaceRoots is 100% free for patients to discover clinics, compare implant treatment options, calculate estimated costs, and submit direct consultation requests.
How is my contact information and medical radiograph protected?
In strict compliance with India's DPDP Act 2023, your details are transmitted directly and exclusively to the clinic you select for your consultation enquiry. We never sell patient contact numbers to external advertisers or unsolicited third parties.
For Dental Clinics & Surgeons
How can I register or claim my dental implant clinic?
Click 'List Your Clinic' or visit /for-clinics/. You can submit your clinic details, doctor qualifications, and contact information. Once our verification team authenticates your DCI registration and clinical facilities, your profile will be published with the Verified badge.
Can I buy a 'Verified' checkmark badge through advertising?
No. Verified status represents objective compliance with clinical credentials and physical legitimacy checks. Verification status cannot be purchased, negotiated, or upgraded through payment. Paid promotional listings receive explicit 'Sponsored' or 'Featured' badges only.
How do patient consultation leads arrive at our clinic?
Patient enquiries are routed directly into your secure Clinic Dashboard, and instantaneous alerts are delivered via registered WhatsApp Business and transactional email so your reception team can follow up promptly.
Dental Implant Clinical Questions
What is the typical timeline for dental implant treatment?
Conventional two-stage dental implant treatment typically takes 3 to 6 months for complete osseointegration (bone fusion) before final crown placement. In favorable anatomical cases, Immediate Loading implants or All-on-4 fixed provisional teeth can be delivered within 48 to 72 hours.
What is the difference between titanium and zirconia implants?
Grade 4 and Grade 5 medical titanium are the global gold standard with over 50 years of clinical osseointegration data. Ceramic zirconia implants are 100% metal-free, hypoallergenic alternatives favored in visible anterior smile zones for patients with thin gingival biotypes.
