Dr. Aditi Kulkarni
Sixteen years in practice, eleven on clear aligner systems. Trained at a government dental college, with post-graduate study at a leading private university. Treats adults and relapse cases following earlier treatment elsewhere.
Orthodontics takes two years and costs what it costs. Here’s the number before you begin — scanned, previewed, and written down, retainers and every review included.
See the priceDrag the month. Eighteen is the median here — simple cases finish sooner, surgical cases run longer. The middle is the least dramatic stretch, and the last five per cent takes a disproportionate share of the time.
Intraoral scan, no impression trays. Your teeth moved digitally, shown to you on screen. Approve the end position or don’t proceed.
₹1,50,000 – 2,50,000
Scan, all aligner sets, reviews, retainers.
Ranges reflect complexity, not your ability to pay. The firm figure arrives in writing with the preview, and doesn’t change mid-course. Interest-free, arranged directly with the studio.
Two orthodontists, and a cap on how many patients each can actually keep track of. You will not be handed to a different person at review four.

Adolescent treatment and growth guidance. With the studio since 2021. Prefers to begin early where growth can be used, and to wait where it can’t.
You don’t proceed, and you’ve paid ₹1,500 for a scan and a consultation. Starting a two-year course you’re unsure about costs far more than that, for everyone involved.
Both work, on the right case. Aligners struggle with severe rotations and larger bite corrections, and we’ll say so plainly if that’s you. Roughly a third of people arriving asking for aligners leave with a braces recommendation instead.
In full, if treatment begins within 90 days. If you take the file elsewhere or decide against treatment, the fee stands — the scan is yours to keep, including the STL file.
Half at fitting, the balance across the course in monthly instalments, interest-free and arranged with the studio directly. No lender, no credit check, no processing fee.
It gets flagged at the preview, not at month eight. If a jaw discrepancy needs orthognathic referral, you’ll be told before you’ve paid anything, and referred with the scan.
