Dear Dr. Prasanth Pillai et al,
Greetings!
I express my sincere gratitude for the excellent dental implant procedure you performed for me recently at Smile Centre India in Kochi.
From the initial consultation to the completion of the implant, your professionalism and expertise were truly commendable. Your clear communication and thorough explanation of the entire process put me at ease and alleviated any concerns I had. I appreciate the time you took to answer my questions and provide detailed information about the procedure, which contributed to a sense of confidence and trust.
Moreover, your meticulous attention to detail during the surgery was evident, and the post-operative care instructions were immensely helpful in ensuring a smooth recovery. I am pleased with the results and feel a significant improvement in both function and aesthetics.
Your friendly and approachable demeanor, combined with the welcoming atmosphere of your practice, made the entire experience positive. The support staff also played a crucial role in creating a comfortable environment.
Thank you once again for your exceptional care and skill. I am truly grateful for the positive impact your work has had on my oral health and overall well-being. I will not hesitate to recommend your services to friends and family in the future.

Visited For Full Mouth Rehabilitation
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for money
My oral health had never been better since I was a child. I had been running dentists after dentists but all in vain. I had flap surgeries twice, done root canal treatment in several teeth, used all the mouth washes my dentists suggested, brushed twice a day but I ended up with bleeding gums with severe infection, bad breath, extremely painful chewing, extreme sensitivity and almost all teeth mobile due to heavy bone loss. My destists suggested to extract all teeth and have dentures. 'Dentures'? I'm too young to have a glass of water beside my bed and a set of teeth stiring at me from inside. I then opted for a full mouth rehabilitation with basal implants, as it was the only option left for me and contacted Dr.Prasanth Pillai at Smile Centre, Kochi, India. Dr.Prasant Pillai is a well experienced, German trained Maxillofacial surgeon with more than10,000 successful implant surgeries to his credit. More over he is compassionate, humane and always down to earth, the qualities a doctor must have along with his/her professional skills. On the day of my first appointment, he explained the procedure clearly, answered my concerns and queries patiently. An overall health check up had been done prior to surgery to see if I was fit for the procedure. After assessing my positive health report, I had been given antibiotics for a week to get rid of gum infections. On 9th Dec 2020, the doctor started the procedure and on 14th Dec 2020 I sat up with a full mouth basal implant and fixed prosthesis. The surgery was somewhat painless with local anethesia. During the treatment days(4-5 days), I had been advised to take light foods like porridge, soup, bread, fruit juices etc..Surprisingly, there is no down time after the procedure and the patients can eat and resume their life routine immediately after fixing the prosthesis. The doctor first fixes the prosthesis temporarily because the implants take almost a year to integrate with the bone. It is a better way to treat issues if any which may occur post surgery as the doctor can easily remove the prosthesis and refix it( only the doctor can remove it not the patient nor anybody else). Also, there is a possible chance for the gums to recede during the healing time. So after a year, when the gums heal and the implants and bones completely integrate, the doctor fixes the prosthesis permanently. It then gives a better look and feeling. This is my 3rd week since the procedure and I'm perfectly alright without any complications so far. A big fat thanks to Dr.Prasant Pillai and his team at Smile Centre, India. The clinic is quite clean and well equipped. When basal dental implant is pricey in other part of the globe, you can get it done at Smile Centre, India, affordably. Not only that, Smile Centre at Kochi, India is a SALVE for your every oral SORE. I would definitely be back with my final results and updates within a year after my prosthesis are permanently fixed.

I can't express enough how exceptional the care provided by Dr. Prashanth and the Smiles Centre was. From the moment I stepped into the clinic, I felt a warm welcome and a sense of ease. The entire team was not only friendly but also incredibly attentive. Dr. Prashanth's expertise was evident, and he took the time to thoroughly explain every aspect of my treatment, which greatly reassured me. The clinic's cleanliness was impeccable, and their use of cutting-edge CBCT technology was truly impressive. I've just embarked on my journey to regain my smile, and I'm confident it will be radiant and amazing thanks to their expertise. I'd also like to extend my appreciation to Dr. Aswani for her professionalism and positive attitude when dealing with complex cases. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Prashanth and his team to anyone seeking top-notch oral care! Note: The indoor garden within the clinic provides an extraordinary experience that I’m certain you won’t encounter anywhere else in the world, and especially not at a dental office! 😊

Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
In early 2023, I underwent a surgical extraction of my impacted wisdom teeth at Smile Centre Kochi. I was informed that the extraction procedure in my case would be a complicated one due to the positioning of my deeply rooted impacted teeth in both jaws.
During the pre-surgery consultation and dental examinations, the doctors at Smile Centre were quick to re-assure me that the extraction would be performed with extreme caution and diligence. and care would be taken to minimise any adverse side effects . At the end of the extraction, I was relieved to discover that the entire process had been very smooth due to the excellent care and guidance that was provided to me. The dental doctors, surgeons, and nurses have maintained top professionalism throughout the entire surgery as well as during post-surgery care,
In July 2023, I had returned for a routine follow-up on the healing of my surgical extraction wounds. Once again, with his immense experience and specialised knowledge, Dr. Prasanth calmly gave me insights into the various stages of the wisdom socket’s healing process and re-assured me that my recovery is on the right track moving forward.
If you are looking for a holistic excellent patient care experience from pre-surgery consultation to post-surgery care, Dr. Prasanth and Smile Centre are the ones to go!

I was recommended to Smile Center by a long time friend who was very happy with the high standard of treatment and great friendliness of the doctor and his team, which I have found to be true. Doctor Pillai uses sensitivity and actively requested me to ask any questions I had, and uses his expansive knowledge to explain in a thorough and helpful manner, which enabled me to relax and feel happy about my decision to visit Smile Center. The level of skill he displayed in the use of anisthetics ( I was constantly asked if I was feeling any pain, which was only slight if any) and antibiotics (100% successful in healing infection, which I was very pleased about), I can happily recommend Smile Center Kochi to others.
