Usually a normal tooth has two parts.
1. Crown portion is the part above the gums
2. Root which is like a pillar inside the bone that holds the crown portion
When a person looses a tooth, both portions are lost. To replace that lost tooth, first we re-insert artificial root portion that is nothing but a dental implant which is a titanium screw. After root we inserted, tooth portion will be made on top of it (Fake tooth)
So, basically, “A Dental implant (Artificial tooth root) is a small titanium screw inserted into the jaw bone which acts as a natural tooth root. They provide a strong foundation for fixed permanent tooth on top of it or support a fixed teeth bridge or prosthesis”.
It has 3 portions:
1.Implant screw – titanium screw drilled into the jaw
2.Abutment – it connects the implant to cap (artificial tooth)
3.Cap – artificial tooth portion

After enduring years of unpleasant encounters at other clinics, i was hesitant, but from the moment i walked in, i was impressed with how welcoming and attentive the staff was. Dr. Sudhakar Reddy was not only skilled but also took the time to explain each step of the process, alleviating any concerns i had. The treatment itself was top notch and the results exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend anyone seeking exceptional dental care.Anubhaw2024-02-10He is the top-notch dentist for dental implant services. I consulted him for my dad's permanent teeth implant. Despite my dad's thin dental bone, the doctor was confident in performing the implant. The procedure was intricate, but the results were almost flawless. It's been six months since the implant, and there have been no issues so far. The doctor is exceptionally friendly and supportive. Many thanks to him for treating my dad well and improving his quality of life.kiran kumar2023-12-23As the dental implant studio is one of genuine and well reputed clinic that I have ever seen & the staff are friendly and helpful.

I have been getting my dental implants done in India by Dr. Sudhakar Reddy since 2017 when he was a visiting surgeon at other dental clinics. Recently (in 2021), I discovered that Dr. Reddy has his own clinic in Bengaluru. I got three implants in my upper jaw at Dr. Sudhakar Reddy's Dental Implant Studio. I have not felt the need to see any other dental surgeon in India since then. He did a perfect job of placing the implants. Dr. Reddy has also done crowns for my new implants just a few weeks ago. The healing was fast. I felt no pain or discomfort during the procedure. Dr. Reddy is consistently improving his skill level and keeps up-to-date on latest developments in dental science and technology. He always uses the best in class products (including implants). Above all Dr. Reddy is a very friendly and compassionate person. That by itself is an exceptional quality of the physician in this money driven World. I recommend all my family and friends to see Dr. Reddy for all their dental treatment needs. Great job Dr. Sudhakar!MOHAMMED SHABEER2023-11-26I'm writing this review after 3 years of my implant being done by Dr. Sudhakar Reddy. It was during lockdown and he first of all followed all protocols and maintained top level hygiene. I got the treatment completed in 3-4 seating and visited doctor twice after that for regular check-ups. The reason to write this review after 3 years is I feel thankful to him many times for the way he has treated me, very professionally done and god's grace have not had any issues since then. Thank you Dr. Sudhakar for treating me and so many others, making us healthy and putting a smile on our faces.Filip Krzysiek2023-10-19I highly recommend it to everyone. Professional service, professional approach to the patient and heart put into each tooth. I have traveled all the way from UK to India for my treatment and every mile was worth it. I have done 3 implants and zirkonium crowns. The result is better than I was expectedShantelle James2023-10-12I have been to many dentists in Australia, but none as caring as calm as gentle as Dr Sudhakar Reddy. He has made my experience of dental implants from a night mare to the most calming, soothing voice that was constantly asking me if i was okay when the surgery was taking place. He had made all my fears go away. He is very thorough with his explanation, with the highest quality of equipment used, especially the state of the art digital measurements, which has made my experience such a pleasure. I would highly recommend Dr Reddy to anyone who needs dental implants 👍👍👍Pavan Jogale2023-09-23I simply can't say how impressed and thankful I am to Dr. Sudhakar Sir. What a great experience!. My mother had major dental problems, and she was suffering for long time. But after long search, We contacted dental implant studio.

I'm glad to say I too had a pleasant experience. I was apprehensive about dental treatment but Dr.Reddy explained me very well, made me comfortable before the procedure & treated me very well.

The clinic is very neat, clean & hygienic as post post COVID that is a major concern. All the necessary precautions are taken & everyone wears there dental gear.Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 283 reviews
