Coming to Karnal from Panipat for oral surgery or implants
This clinic is in Karnal, on Kunjpura Road. There is no branch in Panipat and never has been. You are about 35 km away, almost all of it one straight run up NH-44, which makes this a morning out rather than a journey. What earns the drive is the work an ordinary dental clinic refers onward: implants, wisdom teeth buried in bone or lying against a nerve, and problems needing an oral and maxillofacial surgeon rather than a dentist.
โ Send a photo or your dentist's note first and we will say whether you need to come ยท Mon-Sat 10 AM-2 PM & 5 PM-8 PM
What patients come to us for
Panipat patients come to us for everything, from a routine check-up to jaw surgery. A resident oral and maxillofacial surgeon and a resident prosthodontist under one roof means whatever you arrive with is handled in one place.
Everyday dentistry, very welcome
Check-ups, cleaning, fillings, your child's first visit. Plenty of Panipat families make us their regular dentist, and the drive up NH-44 is short enough to fit around a working morning. Our routine care page describes what a visit involves.
Wisdom teeth that are not straightforward
One lying sideways, still under bone, or with roots near the nerve in the lower jaw is a surgical removal, not a pull. Dr. Nainik Mehta is an MDS oral and maxillofacial surgeon, so it is routine work here. See the wisdom tooth page, or the pain guide if one is throbbing tonight.
Crowns, dentures and smile work
Dr. Kusha Dhawan Mehta is an MDS prosthodontist: crowns and bridges, dentures, veneers and rebuilding teeth that have worn down over years, made to match what you already have. See smile design or full mouth rehabilitation.
Implants, one tooth or several
An implant goes into bone near nerves and sinuses; planning matters more than drilling. Dr. Nainik Mehta does the surgery, Dr. Kusha Dhawan Mehta (MDS Prosthodontist) designs the crown. Note before travelling: the 3D scan is not done here, so you are sent to a nearby imaging centre. Sequence on the implants page.
Anything already called surgical
A jaw cyst seen on an X-ray, a root left behind after an old extraction, an ulcer that has not settled in two weeks. These cases usually get pushed from a district town towards Delhi or Chandigarh; Karnal is nearer. Our surgical care page lists them.
The drive up, and where to stop
Head north on NH-44 and leave the highway at ITI Chowk. That single instruction is most of the journey. Continue onto Kunjpura Road and watch for Ashoka Nursery; we are directly opposite it at #1 Raja Ram Market, signboard facing the road.
Being dropped by auto instead? Say "Kunjpura Road, opposite Ashoka Nursery". Most Karnal drivers know the nursery, and because the entrance opens onto the main road you can be set down at the door.
Parking: two-wheelers outside; cars on the empty road immediately left of the clinic, not inside Ashoka Nursery.
Plan for this: four steps at the entrance, no ramp at present. If someone with you struggles with stairs, say so when you book. Map on the contact page.
How a day trip usually runs
The aim is that you come, get a decision, and drive home the same day.
Before you leave Panipat
Message us the problem and photograph any X-ray or referral note, even an old one. Half the point is that we can sometimes tell you the trip is unnecessary.
The first visit, one sitting
Examination, a small X-ray here if it answers the question, and a plain account of the choices, waiting included. A removable wisdom tooth or minor procedure can often be dealt with the same day if you arrive early in a session.
If a 3D scan is needed
You go to a nearby imaging centre in Karnal that same day and bring the images back. It adds an hour rather than a second trip, which is why we flag it beforehand.
Afterwards
You leave with written instructions and a clear idea of which follow-ups genuinely need you in the chair. A progress check is usually just a photograph.
Hours are Mon-Sat 10 AM-2 PM & 5 PM-8 PM. Sunday by appointment, so ask if no weekday works.
The honest answers
"Nearer must mean simpler"
Usually true, which is why we push routine work back towards Panipat. It stops being true for treatment you have done once in your life; then who does it matters more than how far you drove.
We do not scan in-house
There is no CBCT machine on these premises. Patients needing one are referred to an imaging centre nearby and the surgery is planned from those images. Better you know before setting out.
Not all surgery is in one room
Day-care procedures happen at the clinic. Anything needing an operating theatre is done at a hospital in Karnal chosen to suit the case, not one fixed partner hospital.
Questions we get from Panipat
Is it worth driving from Panipat to Karnal for dental treatment?
How long does the drive from Panipat take?
Can the consultation and the procedure happen on the same day?
Should I get my filling or cleaning done in Panipat instead?
Do you have a clinic or branch in Panipat?
Not sure the drive is necessary? Ask before you start the car
Tell us the problem, or send the note your dentist in Panipat gave you. We will say whether this needs a surgeon in Karnal or a dentist five minutes from your house.
We reply within 15 minutes during clinic hours.
