Concern 02

Concern 03

Implant pain or problems

Discomfort months or years after an implant can come from inflamed gums around it, a loose screw or crown, or bite pressure. Earlier checks give more options.

Frequently Asked

Dental Second Opinion FAQs.

Do I need a referral for a dental second opinion?add

No. You can book directly on WhatsApp, by phone or with the form on this page. Tell us what treatment you had or were offered, so we can book you with the right specialist.

Where can I get a second opinion from a dentist in Dubai?add

At Smile Story Medical Center on Salah Al Din Street, opposite Reef Mall in Deira, Dubai, one minute from Salah Al Din Metro Station. We are open daily, 10:00 AM – 9:00 PM. Book on WhatsApp or call +971 58 577 6453 and tell us what treatment you had, so we can book you with the right specialist.

How much does a second opinion cost?add

The consultation with our dentists is free. A consultation with Dr. Nikeeta Sabhachandani is AED 100. If new X-rays are needed, we tell you the cost before they are taken.

What should I bring?add

Your treatment plan or quote, recent X-rays or scans, any reports from earlier treatment, and a list of the medicines you take. If you have no records, come anyway: digital X-rays can be taken at the clinic when the specialist needs them.

I still have pain after a root canal. Is that normal?add

Some tenderness for a few days after a root canal is common. Pain that lasts longer, swelling, a bump on the gum or pain on biting months later should be checked. Possible causes include a missed canal, a leaking filling or crown, or a crack, and some teeth can be saved with re-treatment.

My dentist said I need a crown, root canal or deep cleaning. Should I get a second opinion?add

It is reasonable to get a second opinion before treatment that cannot be undone, or when a plan is larger than you expected. A specialist examines the tooth, explains what they see on the X-ray and tells you the options, including when a smaller treatment may be enough.

My implant hurts months after it was placed. What could it be?add

Common causes are inflamed gums around the implant, a loose screw or crown, or too much bite pressure on it. Our periodontist and implantologist check the gums, the bite and an X-ray. Problems found early usually have more treatment options.

My teeth moved after braces. Can this be fixed?add

Usually, yes. Teeth that move back after braces or aligners can often be corrected with aligners or braces, followed by a retainer plan so the result stays in place.

Do I have to have the treatment at Smile Story?add

No. A second opinion is for you to decide with confidence. If you choose to continue with us, your case is treated by the specialist for that problem, and you can pay in instalments with Tabby, Tamara or Yusr. TabbyTamaraYusr

What if the specialist agrees with my first dentist?add

Then you can go ahead knowing the plan has been checked. If the specialist sees it differently, they explain why and what the other options are.
