* **** ****** *** *** **** ************ ** ************ **** Invisalign Second OpinionI visited Dr. Milind Darda at 32 Smiles (Koregaon Park) after a very disappointing year-long experience with Clove Dental. My treatment there had completely halted due to subpar results and a lack of personalized care. ******* * ****** ******* *** *** **** ******** * ***** **** ********* ***** ** ****** *** **** ************ ** ***** He is a Black Belt, Top Certified Invisalign provider, and that level of expertise is clear from the moment you start talking to him. Unlike my previous experience where I felt ignored, Dr. Darda is incredibly easy to talk to, respectful, and non-judgmental. He encourages you to ask every single question you have and takes the time to answer them thoroughly.Clinical Excellence:What impressed me most was his diagnostic precision. He conducted detailed scans and identified several issues that Clove Dental had completely missed over the course of an entire year, including:Persistent milk teeth (which were never addressed previously).Crossbite and gap issues.A narrow arch and lower teeth visibility.He showed me the projected final results on screen, which gave me immense confidence in the potential outcome. I also visited his JM Road clinic for X-rays, and the level of professionalism across both locations is top-notch.While I am currently closing out my existing case with my previous provider, I have already decided that I will be returning to Dr. Darda for my actual treatment. If you want a doctor who combines high-level certification with a kind, patient-centric approach, Dr. Darda is the one to see.
I recommend Dr. Milind Darda for his care and professionalism.
