The clinic has seven operatories and seven dental chairs, with nine dentists, including MDS-qualified clinicians in prosthodontics, orthodontics, oral and maxillofacial surgery, and conservative dentistry and endodontics. It operates its own CAD/CAM dental laboratory on site. It is ISO certified, QCI approved and NABH accredited.

Our in-house CAD/CAM dental laboratory

Our on-site laboratory helps the dentist and laboratory team coordinate restoration design, manufacturing, shade checks and adjustments. Selected restorations may be suitable for same-day completion; the team confirms the timing after assessing your case.

What we believe

The practice ideology, which predates all of the equipment, is prevention is better than cure. In practical terms that means patients get told what caused the problem, not only what will fix it, and that treating a cavity early, with advice on preventing further decay, can help avoid more extensive treatment later.

Your treatment fee is confirmed after assessment, with the plan and inclusions explained in writing.

It also means we would rather lose a case than oversell one. If a tooth can be saved, we will say so. If a bridge is the right answer for your circumstances rather than an implant, we will say that too, and explain the trade-off rather than default to the larger invoice.

Mission Muskaan

Under Dr. Sanjeev Awasthi's direction the clinic runs Mission Muskaan, a programme of free dental camps for underprivileged children across Lucknow. It has run for years without a press release, and it is probably the part of the practice we are most attached to.
