* **** ****** *** *** **** ************ ** ************ **** 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. He made a good decision and took quick action. Overall, everything was nice and I was satisfied with the visit.
Dr. Milind Darda diagnosed my dental problem very well and provided a proper solution. The staff behavior was good, the clinic was clean and comfortable, and it’s worth visiting. It’s best to go with an appointment to avoid waiting.

I have been visiting Dr. Milind Darda's clinic for the past 3 years or so for invisible aligners for my teeth. The doctor and his staff are friendly, professional and caring. The clinic ambience is very good to put everyone at ease - bright well-lit rooms, gentle soothing instrumental music, professional staff. Among his staff Dr. Venessa needs a special mention, as she's professional, caring and gentle. The doctor and his staff are cheerful. I had a very good experience with Dr. Priyanka as well. OVerall, I highly recommend the doctor and his staff.

All the members around in the clinic explained very well. Even doctor has given more time in conversation and personally explaining the after effects and procedure for the Invisalign.
I have been receiving treatment for my dental issues from Dr. Milindji Darda for over 16 years, and it has always been a very satisfying experience. He is precise in diagnosis and treatment, using modern surgical techniques and the latest diagnostic instruments. The clinic is clean and well maintained.
I recommend Dr. Milind Darda. He explained my treatment very clearly and was professional throughout the consultation.
Visited For RCT - Single Sitting

Have been visiting 32 Smiles since the last Couple of Years , and must say every visit @ Clinic Dr. Milind has been persistently involved in the Clinical Process of Evolution & Up gradation with the latest of Clinical Systems and Instrumentations ( ,3 D Scanning , Dental CBCT ) this gives you a slice of Tranquillity that your Smile ( 32 teeth ) are in Absolute Safe Hands .
The Hygiene & Saftey Global Protocols were always there at 32 Smiles , but Pertinent to say during this Pandemic environment , the Quintessential Clinical Safety & Hygiene Standards ( Autoclave Sterilization , Hepa Ionisers ...etc ) kept me more relaxed.
I did complete 2 sittings this month 1 for RC and Extraction , & both procedures were very Immaculately carried out , RC was Flawless and Smooth , extraction happened with a blink of the eye.
The Back End and Front Desk Staff are well trained with their Courteous Smiles and their Happy Morning / Afternoon Greets , makes a patient feel Wanted & not to mention the Convalescent tele. calls you get the next day these calls evince that 32 Smile Care for their patients well being and recovery.....
Suggestion : Specially during this pandemic atmosphere if the number of sittings could be shortened , like their were / are suppose to be 5 sittings , 2 for RC ,2 For the Cap , 1 for Extraction , on my request and the staff did oblige , the extraction was carried out with the 2 sitting of RC , that saved 1 additional sitting . In a similar way I presume that for the Cap 2 sittings would be required , my suggestion was if the preliminary examination for the Cap could have been carried out along with the 2nd sitting of RC.
Thanking You
Happy Evening
