USA resident Randy Berthelette Got Permanent Solution in India for his Stained Teeth
A 50-years old resident of USA Randy Berthelette is a cheerful, jocular and enthusiastic person who is a backpacker with a pretty smile. Even after taking care of his oral health, he was facing few problems and wanted to improve his oral health and more specifically his old stained bonding on his 15 smile-teeth. “My stained teeth have been bothering me for a long time. I wanted them to look whiter and more natural than worn out”, said Mr. Berthelette. For this, he booked an appointment with a dentist to get a permanent solution. His dentist suggested him veneers as a permanent solution and cost somewhere around $1500 per tooth.
“I was looking for the best solution but spending a hefty amount of USD 24000 on teeth was a dilemma for me. I have dental insurance as well but you know; only a few portions of the actual cost is paid. I was planning to hit the road for a new adventure but spending my hard-earned money on this treatment was bit indigestible.” To hit two birds with one arrow, he decided to get the treatment from any other country. He was supposed to visit India for his ortho treatment. So he decided to get his veneers done from the best dental hospital in India after his 10-days ortho treatment. He spoke with one the Patient Relations’ team member and asked to get an appointment with a dentist. His appointment was booked for 3rd April with Dr. Neha Garg from The Dental Hub, Gurgaon.
Once all the preliminary diagnostic work was completed it was time to start with the procedure. He was showed the temporaries he would be wearing for few days while the permanent teeth were custom made. His teeth for crown and veneers were prepared and measurement of his teeth was taken. Everything went smoothly with no complications. After 5 days, his follow up appointment was scheduled for seating permanent veneers and metal-free crowns.

“After years of hiding my smile, I finally decided it was time to move forward with veneers. Now, I am more confident and laugh my heart out without thinking about how my smile is. After this treatment from the best dentist in India, I have saved enough money to plan to go to 2-3 trips in a row including skydiving in Dubai to trigger adrenaline rush”, said Randy with a broad smile.
