Dr. Niraj Bhat, BDS
Smile Architect
A dentist whose special interest has always been orthodontics. For more than 20 years his practice has been dedicated to braces and clear aligners, at Family Dental Care, Dombivli East.
Focused on one thing: your smile
Dr. Bhat graduated in dentistry in 2005 and went on to train in clinical and surgical orthodontics in India and abroad. Over the years he chose to concentrate his practice on teeth alignment, so that braces and aligner patients get his full attention.
