About V-Dent Dental Care and Dr. Vijay Makwana
V-Dent Dental Care is a dental clinic in New Nikol, Ahmedabad, at Nest Infinity near Kanba Hospital. Dr. Vijay Makwana is the dentist, and he carries out consultations and treatment himself. The clinic’s approach is to diagnose properly, explain findings in plain language, set out the realistic options with their trade-offs, and give you a written plan before anything begins.
The dentist
Dr. Vijay Makwana
Dr. Vijay Makwana practises at V-Dent Dental Care in New Nikol. He sees patients for general dentistry as well as for restoring damaged and missing teeth, and he handles the consultation, the planning and the treatment himself.
Patients most often mention two things about his consultations. The first is that the explanation comes before the recommendation, using ordinary language rather than clinical shorthand. The second is that the alternatives get discussed properly, including the ones that cost less.
He is also comfortable being asked direct questions — about what a treatment will cost in total, about what could go wrong, about why one option is being suggested over another, and about whether you should wait. Those questions are a normal part of a consultation, not an inconvenience.
How the clinic works
The Principles Behind Every Treatment Plan
These shape how a consultation at V-Dent runs, and they are the standard we would want to be held to.
Diagnosis before treatment
Nothing is recommended until the problem has been examined and understood. Where imaging is needed to be sure, it is taken; where it is not, it is not.
Options, not a single answer
Where more than one treatment could work, you hear all of them — including the cheaper option, the less invasive one, and doing nothing for now.
Save the tooth where it can be saved
A natural tooth that can be restored is generally preferred to replacing it. Extraction is a decision with reasons behind it, not a default.
Written, itemised plans
You get a plan you can read, question and take away, showing the stages, what is included and what is not.
Honest about risk
Every treatment has limitations and things that can go wrong. Those are discussed before treatment, not after.
No pressure to decide today
Consultations are for information. Taking the plan home, or getting a second opinion, is a normal and sensible thing to do.
