Operating across five branches in Chabahil, Naya Naikap, Banasthali, Bardibas, and Chapagaun Dobato, the hospital has grown into one of Nepal's most comprehensive private dental institutions, combining surgical depth with broad general and specialty coverage under a single roof. The flagship branch is located at Gopi Krishna Marg, Chabahil, Kathmandu, approximately 3.7 km from Tribhuvan International Airport.
Why Choose Om Samaj Dental Hospital
Om Samaj Dental Hospital stands out in the Kathmandu dental landscape for the scale and depth of its specialist departments. With 60 dental chairs across its network and 24-hour emergency dental OPD service, the hospital offers a level of availability rarely found in private dental practices in Nepal. The hospital's oral and maxillofacial surgery unit is backed by ICU/CCU facilities through its affiliated general hospital, making it capable of handling complex trauma, tumor, and orthognathic surgery cases that most dental clinics cannot accommodate. Dr. Subash Ghimire has performed hundreds of complex surgeries over several decades, and the hospital maintains an active program of free dental camps and rural outreach across Nepal. An in-house laboratory supports faster turnaround on prosthetic and restorative work, and airport pickup and drop service is available for patients traveling from outside Kathmandu.
