Question 1

What makes The Dental Factory different from other clinics?

Accepted Answer

Three things set us apart. First, we operate a complete in-house dental laboratory — every crown, veneer, and prosthetic is designed and manufactured under our roof, under Dr. Tarek's personal supervision. Second, we use the most suitable premium materials for each case — selected based on your specific clinical needs, with no compromise on quality. Third, Dr. Tarek personally sees every patient from first consultation to final visit — you are never handed off to assistants.

Question 2

How long has Dr. Tarek been practicing?

Accepted Answer

Dr. Tarek has been in clinical practice for over 30 years. He has personally treated thousands of patients from all corners of the world.

Question 3

Do you offer payment plans?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We offer flexible payment plans with zero interest for qualifying treatments. Exact terms are discussed during your consultation based on your treatment plan.

Question 4

What are your clinic hours?

Accepted Answer

Saturday through Thursday, 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM. We are closed on Fridays. Emergency appointments may be available outside these hours — contact us on WhatsApp.

Question 5

Are dental implants painful?

Accepted Answer

The implant procedure itself is performed under local anesthesia and is generally less uncomfortable than a wisdom tooth extraction. Most patients report mild soreness for 2-3 days afterward, manageable with standard painkillers. We prioritize comfort at every step.

Question 6

How long do implants last?

Accepted Answer

With proper care, dental implants can last 25-30 years or more. We use premium implant systems and we guarantee our work — if anything goes wrong, we stand behind every procedure.

Question 7

What is the success rate for implants?

Accepted Answer

Our implant success rate is over 98%, which is among the highest in the region. This is due to our use of premium materials, computer-guided placement, and Dr. Tarek's extensive experience.

Question 8

What is All-on-4 vs All-on-6?

Accepted Answer

All-on-4 uses four implants to support a full arch of teeth, while All-on-6 uses six. The choice depends on your bone density, bite force, and dietary habits. Dr. Tarek performs both and will recommend the option best suited to your specific anatomy after reviewing your CBCT scan.

Question 9

How long do veneers last?

Accepted Answer

Quality porcelain veneers last 15-20 years with proper care — and often longer. Our veneers are crafted from premium porcelain in our in-house lab, which is resistant to staining and chipping.

Question 10

Will veneers damage my natural teeth?

Accepted Answer

Our minimal-preparation veneers require removing less than 0.5mm of tooth surface — about the thickness of a sheet of paper. Your natural tooth remains intact and preserved underneath.

Question 11

How many sessions do veneers require?

Accepted Answer

Two sessions at The Dental Factory. The first for preparation and digital impressions, the second for permanent placement. Between sessions, our in-house lab crafts your custom veneers over approximately one week.

Question 12

I live outside Egypt. How does dental tourism work?

Accepted Answer

Simple. Send us your X-rays via WhatsApp. Dr. Tarek reviews them and sends a personalised treatment plan within 24 hours. If you decide to proceed, we help arrange your visit — including hotel recommendations, airport transfers, and a treatment schedule designed around your travel dates. Most full mouth cases require two visits to Cairo, each lasting 5-7 days, with 3-4 months of healing in between.

Question 13

What languages do you speak?

Accepted Answer

Our team communicates fluently in Arabic, English, and German. We have experience serving patients from across Europe, the Gulf, and beyond.

Question 14

Is it safe to get dental treatment in Egypt?

Accepted Answer

The Dental Factory uses the most suitable premium materials and follows the same sterilization protocols as leading European clinics. Dr. Tarek's training and continuing education align with international standards. Many of our patients have confirmed that the quality of treatment matches or exceeds what they've experienced in their home countries.

Question 15

What about aftercare when I return home?

Accepted Answer

We provide a comprehensive aftercare plan before you leave. Dr. Tarek remains available via WhatsApp for any questions or concerns after you return home. For complex cases, we schedule regular video check-ins. If any issue requires in-person attention, we guarantee our work — if an issue arises, we stand behind every procedure and you only need to arrange travel.

Question 16

Do you provide accommodation?

Accepted Answer

We partner with several 4-5 star hotels in Maadi and nearby areas. While accommodation costs are separate from treatment fees, we negotiate preferred rates for our patients and handle all booking logistics.

Question 17

How do I get a treatment plan?

Accepted Answer

Send your X-rays or a photo of your smile via WhatsApp. Dr. Tarek personally reviews every inquiry and responds with a detailed, personalised treatment plan — at no charge and with no obligation.

Question 18

Do you offer a warranty on your work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We guarantee our work across all procedures. Every case is backed by Dr. Tarek personally — quality and confidence in every result.
