“I am currently undergoing dental aligner treatment with Dr Prakruti, and I couldn't be happier with the experience so far. She is extremely knowledgeable, patient and always takes the time to explain each step of the process in detail. The clinic is clean, well-equipped, and the staff is warm and welcoming, making every visit comfortable. I have already noticed great progress in my smile and feel confident that I'm in the best hands. Highly recommend Dr Prakruti for anyone considering aligners or any dental treatment!”

Aligner & Braces FAQs
Common questions about Clear Aligners in Prabhadevi.
For predictable tooth movement on schedule, clear aligners should be worn 20 to 22 hours per day, removing them only while eating, drinking hot beverages, brushing, and flossing.
No. Unlike wire braces that can poke the cheeks, clear aligners apply gentle, controlled micro-forces. You may feel mild snugness for the first 24–48 hours when switching to a new tray, which is a sign the aligner is gently moving your teeth.
Never! As long as your gums and supporting bone are healthy, teeth can be moved safely at age 15 or age 55. Many of our aligner patients are working professionals in their 20s, 30s, and 40s.
