Equipped with a dental microscope, intraoral scanner, and Class B autoclave sterilization, the clinic delivers advanced care at affordable prices for local and international patients.

Big Smile Dental Clinic & Prosthodontic Center Pvt. Ltd. is a leading specialist dental clinic located in Maharajgunj, Kathmandu, Nepal, near the Bhatbhateni area.

Treatment is performed under a dental operating microscope, enabling precision that is simply not possible with the naked eye, particularly for root canal therapy, crown preparation, and fine restorative work. A digital intraoral scanner replaces messy traditional impressions, improving accuracy and patient comfort for crown, veneer, and aligner cases. The clinic operates a Class B autoclave sterilization system, the highest level of sterilization technology available, preventing cross-contamination and maintaining a safe clinical environment. Appointments are punctual, follow-up care is provided, and treatment is explained thoroughly at every stage.

The clinical environment is modern, clean, and purpose-designed for patient comfort.

The Maharajgunj location is one of Kathmandu's most accessible and well-serviced neighborhoods, frequently visited by expatriates, diplomats, and international travelers. The clinic welcomes patients combining dental treatment with trekking or tourism itineraries, and can accommodate efficient scheduling to fit compact visit windows. English-speaking staff support clear communication for international patients throughout consultation and treatment.

I am so grateful to Dr. Bigyam for working me into his busy schedule to re-cement a crown for my two upper front teeth that came off my implant while on a trek still three days from Kathmandu. I’m from California. It’s natural to be anxious getting dental or medical care aware from home. The first floor office and dental suite was spotless with modern looking equipment. Dr. B explained everything very thoroughly in perfect English, put me at ease, successfully re-cemented the crown, and gave me some welcome and pertinent professional advice about how my dentist at home might modify the crown to reduce rotational pressures that caused it to come loose. Oh, and the cost of care in Nepal is so much less than it would be at home—I feel guilty. Very relieved and thankful.

I was so happy to find this dentist here in Kathmandu. I had a terrible toothache. I found the clinic on Google Maps, and the reviews convinced me immediately. I booked an appointment for an examination. I can honestly say that this dentist is a gift to humanity. He's a true artist with teeth, and his guiding principle is to treat your natural teeth so they can be preserved. I had severe decay under my crowns, and they needed to be replaced. Unfortunately, I also needed a root canal. The clinic's facilities are very professional and well-suited for patients in pain. I've never enjoyed going to the dentist so much. Truly, I look forward to every visit. The value for money is fantastic by European standards. I wholeheartedly recommend this dental clinic to anyone who has or develops dental problems here. Many thanks, G.B.

⸻ My front tooth had slightly shifted forward, so I visited a dentist for evaluation. They recommended aligner treatment and explained the overall procedure, cost, X-ray process, and treatment phases. Since I lived far from the clinic, I specifically asked whether regular follow-ups would be necessary. I was informed that they would send the aligner steps for one year and that any concerns could be addressed through WhatsApp. I began the first phase of treatment and used the initial aligner for one month. Although I lived at a distance, I maintained regular communication with the clinic. They advised me to remove the aligner only while eating and to keep it on at all other times. I experienced significant pain, especially at night, but when I contacted them, I was told the pain was normal and part of the tooth-movement process. After a month, I noticed that the same front tooth had become loose and was wiggling. When I informed the clinic, they asked me to come in immediately. During the visit, I questioned why they recommended aligners after taking my X-ray without verifying whether my gums and tooth roots were strong enough for such treatment. Their response was that they had previously provided aligners to patients with even weaker gum and root conditions, so they attempted it with me as well. This explanation felt highly unprofessional and inappropriate. Requesting a refund was also difficult, and they deducted charges for cleaning and filling. Afterward, I traveled overseas and consulted another dentist. Based on the condition of my gums and tooth roots, he informed me that aligners should never have been used in my case and advised immediate removal. He referred me to a periodontist for deep cleaning. I underwent deep cleaning on the right side, and later, due to a family emergency, I flew to Nepal, where another periodontist performed deep cleaning on both sides. Following these procedures, gum infection began, and now three of my front teeth have become loose, which is highly unusual. I am still seeing a periodontist regularly, and the situation has been extremely distressing. I would like to emphasize one point: healthcare providers should not compromise a patient’s dental health for financial gain. Dental health is an essential part of a person’s overall well-being, and such negligence can cause long-lasting harm.

Clinic response ():

Response from the owner a week agoThank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely regret the distress you have experienced regarding your dental health. Patient well-being is our highest priority, and we take your concerns very seriously. We would like to clarify the clinical and administrative steps taken during your care: 1. Scientific Basis for Treatment At our clinic, we follow evidence-based protocols. Contrary to the idea of negligence, current scientific research supports the use of Clear Aligner Therapy (CAT) even in patients with reduced bone support, provided the condition is monitored. Studies such as "Clear Aligner Therapy in Adults With Stage II-IV Periodontitis: A Narrative Review (2026)" and "Evaluating Clear Aligners Versus Fixed Appliances for Periodontal Patients (2024)" demonstrate that aligners are often the preferred choice for periodontal patients because they allow for superior hygiene and use controlled, light forces. There are no absolute contraindications for this treatment as long as the patient is enrolled in supportive periodontal care. 2. Pre-Treatment Evaluation Your treatment plan was developed following a clinical examination and X-ray review. Our goal was to address the shifting of your front tooth using these scientifically backed methods. During our follow-up visit, our team’s explanation was intended to reassure you that we have successfully managed similar—and sometimes more complex—cases using these exact international standards. 3. Response to Complications As soon as you reported tooth mobility, we requested an immediate in-person evaluation. While some tooth movement and sensitivity are expected during orthodontics, we acknowledge that the subsequent infection you described is highly distressing. Periodontal health is dynamic, and complications can arise due to various factors, which is why we emphasize the importance of regular professional deep cleanings (Scaling and Root Planing) during any orthodontic move. 4. Financial Transparency Regarding your refund, we strive for fairness. As per our clinic policy, fees for general dental services—such as the professional cleaning and fillings you received—are independent of the aligner treatment package. After deducting the costs for these completed procedures, we processed the refund for the aligner treatment as requested. We are truly sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations and for the complications you are currently managing with your periodontist. We remain committed to the highest standards of dentistry and wish you a swift recovery in your ongoing treatment.

I underwent two wisdom tooth extractions and two implant procedures at Big Smile Dental Clinic. Both doctors, Bigyan and Muskan, were highly professional and explained every step of the process clearly. They took great care during the procedures, frequently checking in to make sure I was comfortable. The rest of the staff were equally professional and supportive. I experienced absolutely no pain throughout what could have been a complex treatment. Overall, it was the best dental experience I’ve ever had, and I highly recommend Big Smile Dental Clinic to anyone with dental concerns.
