1. Dental Implants
- Follow-Up Conditions: Replacements for dental implants are subject to patients attending scheduled follow-up appointments as advised. Patients will be instructed to return for follow-ups at intervals of either 6 months or 1 year, depending on their individual treatment plan.
- Routine Visits: Additional routine check-ups are required to maintain the implant warranty and eligibility for replacements.
2. Cosmetic Dentistry
- Annual Check-Up: Patients receiving cosmetic dentistry treatments, such as veneers or smile design, are advised to return for a follow-up appointment at least once a year.
- Medical Consent Compliance: Compliance with all guidelines in the medical consent form, including avoidance of harmful habits, is essential for replacement eligibility.
3. Orthodontics
- Regular Consultations: Patients undergoing orthodontic treatment must maintain regular consultations with their doctor, particularly during the post-treatment phase.
- Retainer Period: Patients are required to wear retainers for a specified period after treatment (typically 6 months to 1 year) to ensure stable results. Replacement eligibility is contingent upon adherence to these requirements.
Note: Smile Tour India and affiliated doctors take no responsibility if patients seek unapproved repair work due to dissatisfaction or inconvenience post-treatment. Furthermore, if a patient fails to disclose relevant medical history either before or after treatment, we reserve the right to withdraw support for future repairs or replacements.
Repair Policy
- Location of Repairs: For repairs, patients must return to the city where their original treatment was conducted. Repairs will be provided at no additional cost if covered within the terms outlined in the patient consent form.
- Concierge Support: A dedicated patient concierge will be assigned to assist with all repair and replacement queries. Patients are expected to respect the concierge’s time and cooperate fully during these interactions.
Replacement Period and Eligibility
- Replacement Window: The specific period for replacements will be clearly outlined in the patient consent form. This window is defined on a case-by-case basis, depending on the treatment and individual patient requirements.
- Claims After Window Closure: Patients are not eligible to claim replacements once the replacement period has closed, as per the terms agreed upon in the consent form.
