The operatory

Built for prosthodontic procedures

Every instrument within reach. Dedicated suite for implants, crowns, and full-mouth reconstruction - the procedures that require MDS-level training to carry out correctly.

Dental Health Care Centre entrance, HSR Layout

19th Main Road, HSR Layout

At this address since 2006

Twenty years. Same building, same contact number. In private dental practice, that kind of stability is rare - and it matters when you're planning a multi-appointment treatment.

The qualification difference

Most clinics in HSR Layout are run by a general BDS dentist. Dr. Shetty holds an MDS in Prosthodontics.

Three additional years of post-graduate training. A competitive national entrance exam. A full clinical residency specialised entirely in tooth restoration and replacement. The difference matters when your treatment involves crowns, implants, or full-mouth reconstruction.

About the Doctor

A Prosthodontist Is Not the Same as a Dentist

Most dental clinics are run by a BDS - a general dental degree. Dr. Bharath Shetty holds an MDS in Prosthodontics, a post-graduate specialist qualification requiring 3 additional years of training beyond the BDS. It is awarded after a competitive national entrance exam and a full clinical residency.

Prosthodontics is the specialty focused entirely on restoring and replacing teeth - crowns, bridges, implants, veneers, dentures, and full-mouth rehabilitation. It demands a level of technical precision that general dentistry does not train for.

"The treatment option given by us might sound costly but they are more permanent treatment procedures."

Dr. Shetty has run Dental Health Care Centre at 19th Main, HSR Layout since 2006. He has also served as a consultant at Narayana Hrudalaya Dental Clinics, Axiss Dental, and Confident Dental Care.

Why patients choose Dr. Shetty over other clinics in HSR Layout

Qualification

MDS in Prosthodontics - a post-graduate specialist degree, not a general BDS. Three extra years of clinical training specifically in tooth restoration and replacement, via a competitive national entrance examination.

Track record

944 verified patient reviews on Practo. 96% recommendation rate. 27 years of clinical practice. These are independently recorded numbers - not claims made by the clinic.

Permanence

Dr. Shetty favours permanent restorative procedures over temporary fixes. Crowns over fillings where the tooth structure demands it. Implants over removable dentures where the patient is eligible. Fewer return visits, longer-lasting results.

Stability

19th Main Road, 2nd Sector, HSR Layout since 2006. Twenty years at the same address. Dr. Shetty's contact number has not changed. That consistency is rare in private dental practice.

Technology that changes the diagnosis

Three pieces of equipment at Dental Health Care Centre that most general practices do not carry.

Intra-oral digital scanner

3D digital impressions instead of putty moulds. More accurate fits for crowns, bridges and aligners. Faster. More comfortable.

Biolase laser system

Dental laser for gum contouring, cavity preparation and soft tissue procedures. Less bleeding, faster healing, no drill in many cases.

OPG X-ray machine

Full-mouth panoramic X-ray in-house. Diagnose bone loss, impacted teeth and jaw issues without sending you to an external imaging centre.
