Appointments & First Visit
You can book by calling the clinic on 098220 94564, sending a WhatsApp message on the same number, or using the enquiry form on the Contact page.
Walk-ins are accepted when the schedule allows, but we strongly recommend calling ahead so a proper time slot is kept for you and there is no wait.
The first visit is a proper examination, any digital X-rays that are needed, a diagnosis, and a treatment plan explained to you in plain language before anything is started.
Please check with the clinic directly for current consultation charges as they vary by case type.
Please try to arrive 5 to 10 minutes before your scheduled time, especially for a first visit, so basic details can be recorded without cutting into chair time.
Treatments Offered
General and preventive dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics, restorative work, dental implants and surgical procedures, and children's dentistry, all under one roof. See the Treatments page for the full list.
Yes. Smile design and smile makeovers are one of the practice's core areas and much of the film industry work at the clinic falls in this category.
Yes. Implants are planned digitally before surgery and placed in-house at the clinic.
Yes. Clear aligners are handled by Dr. Manish Sonawane, MDS in Orthodontics.
Yes. Kids dentistry is offered, including gentle first visits, fluoride, sealants, and small fillings.
Single-sitting root canal treatment is offered where clinically suitable. Not every case is a candidate, and this is decided after examination and X-ray.
Orthodontics & Braces
Yes. Dr. Manish Sonawane is a specialist orthodontist with an MDS in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics from Pune, where he secured the first rank, and an International Lingual Orthodontics super-specialisation.
Metal braces, tooth-coloured ceramic braces, and clear aligners such as Invisalign. Lingual (behind-the-teeth) braces are also handled given the doctor's super-specialisation.
A first orthodontic assessment is typically recommended around age 7. Not every child needs early treatment, but many issues are far easier to correct if caught early.
Yes. A large share of orthodontic patients at the clinic are adults, most opting for clear aligners for discretion.
Cosmetic & Smile Design
Smile design is a planned combination of treatments (whitening, veneers, bonding, alignment, gum contouring where needed) built around your specific face shape and smile, not a template look.
Yes. Both porcelain and composite veneers are offered.
Yes. In-clinic professional whitening is offered for teeth stained by tea, coffee, tobacco, or age.
Yes, and that is the entire aim. The goal is a smile that fits your face, not a template one-size look. This is Dr. Ameya Sonawane's core area of work.
Dental Implants
A dental implant is a small titanium screw placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. A crown is then attached to it. It is the closest replacement to a natural tooth available today.
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, dental implants are designed to be a long-term solution and often last many years without replacement.
Implant placement is done under local anaesthesia. Most patients report the procedure itself is not painful, with mild soreness for a day or two afterwards.
Pain, Anxiety & Comfort
Painless dental treatment is one of the things patients most often mention about the clinic. Modern local anaesthesia technique, careful pacing, and unhurried appointments are all part of it.
Yes. Nervous and first-time patients are given extra time by design. The doctor will walk you through what is going to happen before it happens, and nothing is started without your understanding.
Please discuss directly with the clinic if you have specific sedation requirements, as the appropriate option depends on the case and your medical history.
Hygiene & Safety
Every reusable instrument is autoclaved, and single-use disposables are used where clinically appropriate. Infection control has been a strict priority at the clinic since it opened.
Yes. The clinic follows standard clinical hygiene practices, and appointments can be spaced out on request for patients who prefer a quieter chairside environment.
Cost & Payment
Costs vary based on the treatment, materials, and complexity of the case. A written estimate is given after examination, so you know the cost before any treatment starts.
Yes. Cash, card, and UPI are accepted. Please confirm with the front desk for any specific arrangement.
For larger treatment plans, please speak with the clinic directly. Options are discussed on a case-by-case basis.
Insurance handling depends on your specific policy and provider. Detailed invoices and clinical notes are provided so you can file for reimbursement.
For Outstation & NRI Patients
Yes. Patients regularly travel in from other cities in India and from abroad. Multi-visit treatments can be compressed into a shorter trip where clinically safe. See our Dental Tourism page.
Yes. Share existing X-rays and photos via WhatsApp or email and a preliminary plan can be shared before travel is booked.
