Questions
Mga madalas itanong.
Asked the way patients ask them, answered plainly. If yours is not here, message your branch.
Cost and payment
Magkano ang braces?
It depends on how much your teeth need to move and which kind of braces suits you, so there is no one figure for everyone. At your consultation the dentist explains your options and the fee for each before you decide.
Bakit walang presyo sa website?
Because the fee depends on what your teeth need, and we can only know that after looking. You hear the plan and the cost before anything starts.
Paano ang bayad?
Cash and e-wallets are accepted. For long treatments such as braces, payment is spread across your visits. We go through it at your consultation.

Kinakabahan ako. Ano ang gagawin ninyo?
Tell us when you book. The dentist explains each step before doing it, you can raise a hand at any time and we stop, and a numbing gel goes on before any injection.
Braces and aligners
Gaano katagal ang braces?
Most treatment takes about one to three years, depending on how much your teeth need to move.
Masakit ba magpa-braces?
The fitting itself does not usually hurt. Your teeth usually feel sore for a few days afterwards and after each adjustment. Soft food helps at first, and we give you wax for brackets that rub.
Pwede pa ba mag-braces ang adult?
Yes. We fit braces for teens and adults.
Braces o clear aligners?
It depends on your teeth. Some cases move better with braces. The scan and X-ray at your consultation show which suits you.
Missing teeth
Ano ang pagkakaiba ng pustiso, bridge at implant?
A denture is removable. A bridge is fixed and held by the teeth on either side of the gap. An implant replaces the root and carries its own crown. The dentist explains all three for your case.
Gaano katagal ang dental implant?
From placing the post to fitting the crown usually takes about three to six months, mostly healing time.
Ilang visit ang pustiso?
About two to five, depending on the case, including an adjustment visit. Sore spots in the first weeks are common, and we adjust the denture.
Cosmetic
Ano ang kasama sa smile makeover?
It depends on your teeth. A plan may combine porcelain veneers, crowns and bridges, and in some cases whitening or braces. You see a preview before any tooth is changed.
Tinatapyas ba ang ngipin para sa veneers?
It depends on your case. A thin layer of enamel may be removed, and in some cases none is. Where enamel is removed, that cannot be undone.
Permanente ba ang whitening?
No. The effect fades with time, coffee and smoking, and how much lighter teeth get differs from person to person.
Surgery
Masakit ba magpabunot?
The area is numbed with local anaesthetic, with a numbing gel before the injection.
Ginagawa ba ninyo ang impacted wisdom tooth?
Yes. Wisdom teeth, including impacted ones, are removed at our clinics. The removal usually takes about 30 to 60 minutes.
Ano ang bawal pagkatapos ng bunot?
No straws, forceful spitting or smoking for the first days. Rest that day and keep to soft, cool food at first.
Everyday care
Gaano kadalas dapat magpa-cleaning?
Every six months, or more often if the dentist advises it for you. A cleaning usually takes around 30 minutes.
Kulay ngipin ba ang pasta?
Yes. We use a tooth-coloured filling material, and a filling is usually done in one visit.
Root canal o bunot?
Root canal treatment keeps the tooth; an extraction removes it. The dentist explains whether your tooth can be saved.
