I had visited Dr. Shivanand V for my impacted canine exposure and bracketing surgery & I have been his patient over the months to get my braces treatment also done.
Dr. is very calm, composed, friendly & extremely professional. One thing that I personally appreciate the most about him is that he genuinely cares for the well being of his patients & advises only those procedures which might prove to be of help to his patients depending upon each individual’s case, which in my opinion is something that sets him apart from the rest.
Dr. Rajnikant B R, who performed my oral surgery for the impacted canine exposure is yet another accomplished Doctor who is very friendly & jovial spirited. He makes an effort to keep the patient comfortable during the surgery by creating a light-hearted environment and engaging the patient in regular conversations.
Dr. Shruthi K V also played a vital role in my surgery as a supporting hand and ensured that I remained calm & comfortable during the entire surgery. She has previously assisted my sibling with RC & crown fixing. She too regularly follows up to see if the patient is doing well post treatment.
All in all, I’ve had an amazing experience with all the doctors at Smile Align Clinic & I’m hoping to get extra ordinary results post completion of my metallic braces treatment. Would definitely recommend these doctors to anyone looking for a seamless dental experience.

Weeks before I visited SmileAlign Dental for the first time, my anxiety had been building. I knew I had put off a cleaning for too long, my pain tolerance is low and I had bad experiences with other places before. I did a ton of research to find the most reputable and most gentle dentist I could find and it led me here. I live in Electronic city, by the way and made the trek all the way to Hebbal for the visit. And I’m so, so glad I did. The associate dentist took her time to explain everything to me, calm me down, and give clear guidance. She has such a comforting presence and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. For my actual procedure, Dr. Shivanand came in and (wow, truly) he’s the best dentist I’ve ever had. He listened to every concern I had, no matter how silly I thought I sounded, always checked to make sure I was okay and I swear has the most steady and gentle way of working ever. I could tell that it could have been so uncomfortable (and even painful) IF he wasn’t the one doing it. I’ll never ever go anywhere else and could not recommend this clinic more!

Iam currently at 9 months through my Invisalign treatment journey with SmileAlign Clinic, and the experience has exceeded my expectations.
Dr Shivananda is very patient, gentle and comprehensive in his treatment. While I was initially concerned about the level of compliance required for Invisalign to be effective, integrating it into part of my daily routine has turned out to be straightforward after the first couple of months from starting the treatment. In my experience, inculcating the habit (of removing/replacing aligners during mealtimes) is relatively easy once it has been formed.
My full treatment is estimated to take around 2 years, but I am already seeing significant gains, especially on my front teeth. Side benefits of Invisalign include (a) tremendous improvement in health of my gums with the increased attention and guidance from Dr Shivananda, and (b) greater attention in keeping to regular mealtimes (and avoiding snacks in between!).
Prices for both Invisalign and generic dental treatments are also very competitive / reasonable, in my opinion. I would highly recommend SmileAlign Clinic as a one-stop solution for any dental and orthodontic procedures.
