The procedure is minimally invasive and provides long-lasting, natural-looking results.

A gummy smile where too much gum tissue covers your teeth.
Uneven gums that make your smile look asymmetrical.
Receding gums that expose tooth roots and cause sensitivity.
Thick or overgrown gum tissue due to genetics or medications.
Healthy teeth and gums, as this procedure is best for those without active gum disease.

Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

I have been travelling to India from the UK for the past 15 years and learnt of Dr Shetty’s dental surgery 18 months ago from a very good business contact in Mumbai. Experienced dental treatment, friendly smiling faces, No waiting list, and most of all ” No Pain. ” Needless to say i have now abandoned my UK Dentist !!!!!

Stephen Samuels (U.K.)

Like most, for me a visit to the dentist was not looked forward to. Being introduced to Dr. Shetty has completely changed my outlook on dentistry. Albeit my UK dentist is has a friendly manner and sate of the art practice, I rarely visit unless in an emergency. After attending my first appointment with Dr. Shetty for a filling, I eagerly returned 6 months later for a route canal and my first cosmetic work. Living in London, my visits to Mumbai will always take in an appointment or two at the dentist. I look forward to having more improvements done to correct years of neglect! Dr Shetty is definitely my preferred
