At V R Smile Makers, we make that a reality.
Led by Dr. Navpreet Bhatia — a dental professional with over 16 years of experience across national and international dental centers — our practice brings global standards home to Pune. Dr. Bhatia has curated a team and a clinic environment that reflects the very best she has experienced in dental centers around the world.

Why India? Why Pune? Why V R Smile Makers?
Cost Savings That Are Hard to Ignore
Dental care costs in the US, UK, Australia, Canada, and Europe have reached levels where even insured patients face significant out-of-pocket expenses. In India, the same high-quality treatments — performed with identical materials, equipment, and expertise — cost 60–80% less.

Your V R Smile Makers Dental Tourism Journey — Step by Step
We have designed a process that prioritises your comfort, transparency, and confidence at every stage. No surprises. No hidden costs. Just expert care from start to finish.
Step 1 — Share Your Medical & Dental Information
Your journey begins from the comfort of your home. Fill out our simple dental tourism enquiry form and share:
-
Recent dental X-rays, OPG scans, or CBCT reports (if available)
-
Photos of your smile — front, side, and close-up
-
A brief description of your concerns, symptoms, or aesthetic goals
-
Your medical history and current medications
-
Your approximate travel window / preferred dates
Our patient coordinator will review your information within 24–48 hours and schedule your video consultation with Dr. Bhatia.
Step 2 — Video Consultation with Dr. Bhatia
A one-on-one video consultation with Dr. Navpreet Bhatia — not a coordinator, not a junior — where she personally reviews your case, asks questions, and begins mapping out your treatment plan.
During this call, you can:
-
Discuss your concerns openly and ask any questions
-
Understand Dr. Bhatia's recommended approach and rationale
-
See a preliminary Digital Smile Design preview where applicable
-
Get an honest assessment of timelines, number of visits, and what to expect
This is not a sales call. It is a genuine clinical consultation.
Step 3 — Detailed, Transparent Quote
We believe in full transparency — which is why your quote is not just a total number, but a complete breakdown.
Your personalised quote will include:
-
Itemised cost of every procedure recommended
-
Optional or additional treatments we feel could benefit you — clearly marked as optional, not mandatory
-
Materials being used (implant brands, ceramic types, etc.)
-
Number of visits required and estimated duration of each
-
Total estimated treatment time and minimum stay recommended
Why do we include optional items? Because we believe you deserve to make informed decisions. Some patients come for a single implant and don't know that a neighbouring tooth could benefit from a crown. We mention it — you decide. No pressure, ever.
Step 4 — Treatment & Tourism Planning
Once you confirm your plan and dates, our patient coordinator works with you to organise:
-
Appointment scheduling optimised around your treatment sequence and recovery periods
-
Recommended hotels or service apartments near our clinic (Magarpatta City / Undri, Pune)
-
Airport transfer guidance and local travel tips
-
Tourism suggestions — local sightseeing, day trips, and recovery-friendly activities

Guidance on what to expect day-by-day during your stay
We will create a personalised itinerary that balances treatment visits with leisure, ensuring your trip to Pune is as enjoyable as it is transformative.

Step 6 — Arrival & Clinic Visit

On your first in-person visit, Dr. Bhatia conducts:
-
A comprehensive clinical examination
-
Digital X-rays and scans (if not shared in advance)
-
Digital Smile Design session — where relevant, to finalise your aesthetic goals
-
Final treatment plan confirmation with your full agreement before any procedure begins
We begin treatment only when you are fully informed, at ease, and ready.

Our follow-up protocol includes:
-
Detailed treatment summary and records sent to you digitally — to share with your local dentist if needed

Video follow-up consultation at 2 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months post-treatment

WhatsApp/email support for any questions or concerns after your return

Frequently Asked Questions
How many days do I need to plan for my dental visit to Pune?
This depends entirely on the complexity of your treatment. A single dental implant may require 5–7 days (initial placement, healing check). A full smile makeover may require 7–14 days. A full mouth rehabilitation could require 10–21 days, often split across two trips. Your personalised itinerary will give you exact timelines before you book.
Is the quality of dental materials and equipment comparable to the US or UK?
Yes — and in many cases, identical. Dr. Bhatia uses the same international-grade materials, implant brands, and ceramic systems used in top clinics globally. She has been exposed to international dental centers and ensures V R Smile Makers operates at those standards.
What if something goes wrong after I return home?
We provide structured post-treatment video follow-ups and full digital records for your local dentist. Our WhatsApp support line ensures you always have access to Dr. Bhatia's team. In the rare event that an in-person review is needed, we provide priority scheduling for returning patients.
Do I need to speak Hindi?
Not at all. Dr. Bhatia and our team are fully fluent in English. Pune is a cosmopolitan, English-friendly city, and you will find communication completely easy.
Can I travel and sightsee during my treatment?
Absolutely. Most treatment days involve a clinic visit in the morning or afternoon, leaving the rest of your day free. We will build your itinerary to include rest days and tourism days. Pune and its surroundings offer wonderful options.
How do I get started?
Simply reach out to us via WhatsApp on +91-8698190224, or email us, and our patient coordinator will guide you through the initial information-sharing process and schedule your video consultation with Dr. Bhatia.
