Kothrud, Pune

Dental care without the dread.

Smile Studio has treated Kothrud's most nervous patients for twelve years — sedation options, no-judgment cleanings, and a dentist who explains what she's doing before she does it.

Questions patients ask us first

Will it hurt?+

Most cleanings and fillings don't need anaesthesia at all. For anything that does, we numb the area properly and wait for it to take effect — no starting early.

I'm scared of dentists. Can you work with that?+

Constantly. Tell the front desk when you book and we'll slot you with Dr. Kulkarni, who specialises in anxious patients, and walk you through every step before it happens.

Do you accept insurance?+

We work with most major insurers and can also set up a payment plan for larger treatments like implants or braces.

What if I need an emergency appointment?+

Call before 6pm and we'll see you the same day. After hours, our recorded message has an emergency contact number.

How do you sterilise your equipment?+

Every instrument is autoclaved between patients, and we follow Indian Dental Association infection-control protocols to the letter.

What we treat

General Checkups

Twice-yearly cleanings and checkups that catch problems before they become expensive ones.

Smile Makeovers

Veneers, whitening and alignment — planned around what your own face actually looks like.

Root Canal Therapy

Single-sitting root canals for most cases, done under proper anaesthesia.

Pediatric Dentistry

Gentle first visits for kids, with a no-tears approach the whole family notices.

“I hadn't seen a dentist in six years out of pure dread. Dr. Kulkarni talked me through the whole cleaning before starting. Already booked my next visit.”
