A Dental Journey from Pakistan to Solna Dental in Stockholm

As I grow older, I notice more issues with my teeth. Maybe it's because I didn't take care of them properly when I had the chance. About 18 years ago, I experienced severe gum pain and a dentist in Sweden recommended treatment. However, dental care in Sweden is quite expensive and I chose temporary fixes from Pakistan to save money. Unfortunately, this decision only made my dental problems worse over time.

Fast forward five years ago, just before the global pandemic, I opted for dental implants in Pakistan. During my regular check-ups there, everything seemed fine. However, when COVID-19 hit, I couldn't travel back to Pakistan due to lockdowns and restrictions. Considering job constraints and travel expenses, making frequent trips to Pakistan for dental issues wasn't feasible.

I tried reaching out to various dental clinics in Stockholm for ongoing treatment, but the costs were beyond my budget. Eventually, one of my lower jaw implants started causing trouble, coming out halfway. Frustrated, my wife searched on Google and found Solna Dental. Despite encountering a mix of reviews, including some expressing concerns, we were encouraged by the overwhelmingly positive feedback. Intrigued by the possibility of a positive experience, we decided to book an appointment with Solna Dental.

Upon arriving at Solna Dental, tandläkare Ali welcomed us and attentively listened to my problem. Without trying to sell unnecessary services, Ali quickly addressed the issue, removing the problematic implant with ease and at a reasonable cost.

Ali suggested a comprehensive check-up for my teeth, but I was still leaning towards getting dental work done in Pakistan for cost reasons. Fast forward to six months ago, I experienced significant swelling on the opposite side of my face for about three weeks. Medical professionals couldn't pinpoint the cause. After trying various tests and eliminating potential allergens from my diet, the swelling persisted.

Frustrated and running out of options, I recalled Ali from Solna Dental. We booked an immediate appointment, with the condition that I meet Ali. During the examination, Ali identified a hidden issue – an infected tooth. Despite the challenges of dealing with a tooth connected to a bridge, Ali assured me that the process would be smooth and painless. His excellent communication skills and convincing explanation quickly won me over.

Today, I visited Solna Dental without any fear of pain or concern about costs. The clinic impressed me with its bright and clean environment, comfortable waiting room chairs, and a stress-relieving aquarium. My treatment was successful, and I've made a commitment to prioritize my health moving forward.

Learning from my experiences, I now understand the importance of timely and proper dental care. If you're in Stockholm and searching for an excellent dentist, I highly recommend reaching out to Solna Dental. The quality care I received without compromising my health was well worth the visit.

Peace be upon you brother! After a long time you posted. There is something to learn from you every time. This time اور learned that "مسوڑوں کا درد" is also called gum pain. I've never had gum pain so I have no idea what it's like. But you have described the experience of receiving wrong treatment from Pakistan, now I will also be afraid to undergo dental treatment. Both my mother and sister, had more problems than solution after visiting dentist. By the way, I don't want to get dental treatment, but maybe I will go for a visit before marriage. My other sister had laser eye surgery, her experience was very good and her vision has improved. Now I'm thinking I should do it too. It's good that Ali Bhai treated you well, otherwise the dental problem will keep recurring. You were already scared of wrong treatment so it was good that Ali bhai took you into confidence with his communication skills.

السلام علیکم بھائی! کافی عرصے بعد آپ نے پوسٹ کی۔ ہر بار آپ سے کچھ سیکھنے کو ملتا ہے۔ اس بار یہ سیکھا کے gum pain کو مسوڑوں کا درد بھی بولتے ہیں۔ مجھے ابھی تک مسوڑوں کا درد نہیں ہوا تو مجھے اندازہ نہیں ہے یہ کیسا ہوتا ہوگا۔ لیکن آپ نے یہ جو پاکستان سے غلط علاج ہونے کا تجربہ بیان کیا ہے، اب تو مجھے بھی ڈینٹل ٹریٹمنٹ کرواتے ڈر لگے گا۔ میری امی اور بہن، دونوں کی باری ان کا مسئلہ کم ہونے کے بجائے زیادہ ہو گیا تھا۔ ویسے تو میں ڈینٹل ٹریٹمنٹ نہ ہی کرواؤں لیکن شاید شادی سے پہلے ایک دفعہ چکر لگا لوں۔ باقی میری سسٹر نے لیزر سرجری کروائی تھی انکھوں کی، اس کا تجربہ بہت ٹھیک رہا اور ان کی نظر ٹھیک ہو گئی ہے۔ اب میں سوچ رہا ہوں کہ میں بھی کروا ہی لوں۔ چلیں یہ اچھا ہوا کہ علی بھائی نے آپ کا علاج اچھے سے کر دیا ورنہ دانتوں کا مسئلہ بار بار اتا رہتا ہے۔ آپ پہلے ہی ڈرے ہوئے تھے غلط علاج سے تو یہ اچھا ہوا کہ علی بھائی نے اپنی کمیونیکیشن سکلز سے آپ کو اعتماد میں لے لیا۔

Salam, it was a bit difficult for me to write due to busy work for a while. I used to write on the train while commuting to the office and I had even written a blog about how I manage to find time for writing. However, it has been more than a year now. Either the trains are late or when they arrive, they are so crowded that there is no place to sit. Because of yhis, writing a blog becomes impossible. Taking a break at home for the past two days, I thought I should share a blog about the current situation.
وعلیکم اسلام، کافی عرصہ سے کام کی مصروفیات کی وجہ سے لکھنا تھوڑا مشکل ہو رہا تھا۔ کام پہلے بھی تھا لیکن پہلے میں دفتر آتے جاتے ٹرین مین لکھ لیا کرتا تھا اس بارے میں میں نے ایک بلاگ بھی لکھا تھا کہ میں کیسے وقت نکالتا ہوں بلاگ لکھنے کا۔ لیکن سال سے زیادہ ہوگیا ہے۔ یا تو ٹرین لیٹ ہوتی ہیں اور جب آتی ہے تو اتنی بھری ہوتی ہے کہ پیر رکھنے کی جگہ نہیں ہوتی۔ جس وجہ سے بلاگ لکھنا ممکن نہیں ہوتا۔ دو دن سے گھر ہر آرام کر رہا ہوں تو سوچا چھاپ دوں ایک بلاگ موجودہ صورت حال پر۔
اماور پاکستان میں میرا ڈینٹل ٹریٹمنٹ خراب نہیں ہوا تھا۔ پاکستان میں انہوں نے بہت کم وقت میں بہت ہی عمدہ کام کیا تھا۔ کئی سال تک میں وہاں ٹمعلاج کرواتا رہا ہوں۔ لیکن ہر چھوٹے مسئلے کے کیے پاکستان سفر کرنا تھوڑا مشکل ہے اصل وجہ یہی ہے جس کی وجہ سے سویڈن میں ہی علاج کا ارادہ کیا۔

Health is wealth and I am glad to hear that you are prioritise your health moving forward as it is necessary.

Thank you ❤️
