Visited For Chipped Tooth
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
Really happy that Dr Sahoo was open during the Dussera holiday. I brought in my 2 year old who had a chipped tooth and some calcular build up on his front tooth. My toddler gave everyone a hard time but Dr Sahoo remained patient and professional thru out. She was able to smoothen out the jagged edge of my child's tooh and gave us sound advice on how to do home treatment to prevent further damage. Her Brookefileld clinic is very new, great set up, spacious and modern looking all through out. Would definitely recommend patients to her.

I visited her new clinic In Brookfield. Visited for bleeding gums and bad breath.She explained me the problem in depth. Also, she very well explained about the treatment plan, duration, visit, cost. She is very professional, honest, straight forward. During and after the procedure I didn't get any pain. I came to her for gum problem, but she explained other dental problem as well.The best part is she allowed me to think. She didn't rush to the procedure.
I highly recommend Dr. Punya to my friends and my family.
Visited For Dental Cavity Filling
Hoped for better: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
Pretty horrible experience considering we have met quite a few doctors till date.
We got fillings done for the teeth of my six year old in a small town. When in Bangalore we visited to get the fillings examined by a ******** doctor. There was some filling material left on the spot which she recommended to redo and we promptly agreed.
Having a dental history myself,I asked a few questions and I found the answers fairly superficial .I got the feeling I made a mistake of booking her since she showed as Practo prime and popped up first on the app screen but too late in the game .
There was a broad advise of the kid not biting anything 'hard ' like a pencil . Candies,pencil ( of course) and anything slightly hard things were off menu.
Within 2 weeks one of the fillings completely fell off and we could not contact the doctor for about 10 days due to some issues . The kid was on a regular vegan diet of mostly rice,daal all these days .
When we visited again ,she blamed the kid for doing things wrong like biting something hard. The doctor said,she had advised placing a cap on that area when she clearly said on the previous visit, a cap was not needed at that time !! She said I tell this to all -which means of course I needed better comprehension skills. She did the filling again -pretty rude and harsh with the kid and finished the procedure in a hurry.***** *** **** rudeness -too much to handle.She of-course promptly asked for her fees- pretty high - after that.Paid the fees and left with a deep feeling of regret at my choice of coming here .I am of-course going to consult another doctor to look at the kids teeth ** ***** ****** ********** *** **** ** ******* ***************** * ** **** *** *** **** * **** ************* ** ****** * ********** ****** *** ***** **** ******* ****** ** *** * ***** *** ** *** ****** *
Visited For Dental CrownsRoot Canal Treatment (RCT)
Hoped for better: Explanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
It was for my 5 year old daughter.After the half root canal for her milk teeth (5 of them), the doctor tried to fix the crowns ******* ****** ****** ************* As the crown sizes were not matching with my daughter's tooth size, she resized the teeth in such a way that it became so small. The crowns that were fixed on that didn't last for more than 3-4 days. We again went there and fixed it twice or thrice. She only blamed the kid saying that she is always trying pull it out thats why it is coming out. As the crowns were coming out several times *** **** ****** ** *** **** ** ******* *** ***** ************ i also contacted different dentists to check the issue and understood that the issue is, the crown doesn't have a proper base to stick to the tooth as she made it very small. This was the scariest thing as the crown was coming out when the kid was having food. No medical emergency happened as my daughter was very careful while eating. Later i checked with other dentists and decided that i will not fix those crowns and made sure that the filling is proper. It was just that i lost 10000 rs only for crowns. After 2 months, my daughter started to get swelling on one of the tooth which had undergone half root canal treatment. As i have moved abroad, i showed it to one of the dentist here and they have referred me to a dental surgeon as it looks like there is some damage in the underlying nerves due to the earlier treatment and it is creating issues. After spending 25000-30000 rs on my daughter's teeth already in Bangalore, my kid have to again undergo so many more treatments and pains again. This is something that is not acceptable at all. I would recommend not to go in this doctor. I am sorry!! I didn't want to give any negative feedback, but i didn't see any other option after seeing the after effects of the treatment.
