Dr Shrikant Gadakh evaluates tooth alignment, bite relationships and growth-related orthodontic concerns at Sai Multi Speciality Dental Clinic, Baner. His role is to establish what is causing the alignment or bite problem before discussing braces, aligners, observation or referral. [1]
His assessments may cover crowding, spacing, protrusion, crossbite, open bite, deep bite, impacted or delayed teeth, relapse after earlier treatment and retention. A page or photograph cannot determine appliance suitability, treatment duration or whether tooth removal is needed.
Patients may request an appointment with a named dentist, but scheduling and clinical responsibility still depend on the problem described, availability and whether another clinician is more appropriate.
Patients also search for Dr Shrikant Gadakh as an orthodontist, a braces dentist or a dentist for teeth straightening in Baner. He completed his BDS at Rural Dental College, Loni and his MDS in Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopaedics at M.G.V. Dental College, Nashik, and he sees patients at Sai Multi Speciality Dental Clinic in Mohan Nagar, Baner.
A dentist profile should clarify training and scope without predicting an individual result.

Degrees describe formal training, but they do not remove the need for current examination, informed consent, appropriate records and referral where required. The clinic should verify credential wording before publication and update this page if professional details change.
Published credentials should be specific, verifiable and kept current.

An orthodontic assessment considers the teeth, gums, jaw relationships, facial balance and functional bite. Existing decay or gum inflammation may need attention before tooth movement. Records are selected according to the diagnostic question and may include photographs, measurements, study models or scans and radiographs when justified.
A consultation may identify a condition outside Dr Shrikant’s principal field. In that situation, the useful outcome is a clear explanation and a referral or coordinated plan rather than forcing the concern into one procedure.
Want to talk this through before you book? Our team can answer questions about Dr shrikant gadakh, orthodontist by phone or WhatsApp.
The diagnosis defines the care pathway; the webpage does not.
Bring details of earlier braces or aligner treatment, retainers, extractions, jaw surgery, trauma and relevant dental images. Patients already wearing an appliance should bring its components and the previous treatment plan where available. Missing records do not prevent an initial discussion, but they may limit immediate conclusions.
At the visit, you can ask what the dentist has found, how certain the diagnosis is, which options are reasonable, what happens if you wait and which parts of the plan may need another clinician.
Useful records and clear questions make the first consultation more informative.
An orthodontic assessment considers the teeth, gums, jaw relationships, facial balance and functional bite. Existing decay or gum inflammation may need attention before tooth movement. Records are selected according to the diagnostic question and may include photographs, measurements, study models or scans and radiographs when justified.
Tests and imaging are selected when they can answer a clinical question or change the plan. They are not automatically required at every visit. Existing records may be adequate, may need a different view or may no longer represent the current condition.
Before any irreversible procedure, the patient should understand why the record is needed and how its result affects the available choices.
The smallest useful set of current records should support the decision.
Dr Shrikant explains the problem list, realistic objectives, material limitations and suitable treatment categories. The discussion can include metal, ceramic, self-ligating or lingual braces and clear aligners where clinically relevant. Brand choice follows diagnosis; it does not replace it.
A responsible recommendation considers expected benefit, material risks, reasonable alternatives, maintenance and the consequences of delaying or declining care. Estimates about visits or duration remain provisional until diagnostic information is complete.
The patient can ask for time to consider elective care, request copies of records and seek another opinion. Consent is a continuing conversation and can be revisited when findings or circumstances change.
Treatment planning connects evidence, alternatives and the patient’s informed priorities.
When it may fit: For developing or minor concerns where immediate treatment may not add benefit.
Planning: Review timing depends on growth, eruption and risk.
When it may fit: For controlled tooth movement when brackets and wires suit the objectives.
Planning: Adjustment visits and retention are required.
When it may fit: For selected movements when removable-appliance wear and monitoring are realistic.
Planning: Daily wear, refinements and retention affect the sequence.
Active orthodontic care requires attendance, cleaning around appliances and following instructions about elastics or aligner wear. Duration is estimated only after records because tooth movement, growth, cooperation, broken appliances and biological response vary. Retainers are part of treatment planning rather than an optional afterthought.
How orthodontic diagnosis, monitoring and retention fit together.
Assessment and planning before a fixed appliance is selected.
Suitability, wear responsibilities and realistic limitations.
Growth, eruption and timing considerations for younger patients.
A named service is one possible pathway, not a pre-approved prescription.
Loose brackets, poking wires or a lost retainer usually need prompt dental advice but are not normally medical emergencies. Major facial trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, breathing or swallowing difficulty, rapidly increasing swelling or severe systemic illness requires urgent medical care.
Call the clinic and describe symptom severity, duration, swelling, fever, trauma and bleeding. An online message is not emergency monitoring, and an appointment exists only after the clinic confirms it.
Dental triage starts by phone, while airway risk and severe illness need emergency medical care.
Tell the clinic about dental anxiety, a strong gag reflex, sensory needs or a previous difficult orthodontic experience. Assessment can be paced, questions can be written down and a patient can ask to pause. Comfort measures do not remove the need for adequate records or valid consent.
Share relevant medical history, previous reactions, communication preferences and what helps you cope. Patients can ask what will happen before an examination or procedure and can agree on a signal to pause.
Not sure whether Dr shrikant gadakh, orthodontist applies to you? Call or message the clinic and we will explain the next step.
Clear communication supports comfort without making unrealistic promises.
An early orthodontic evaluation does not automatically mean braces should start. Dr Shrikant considers eruption, growth, function, the severity of the problem and whether acting now provides a meaningful advantage over monitoring. Caregivers take part in consent, cleaning and attendance planning.
The caregiver should provide health history and consent, while the young person receives an age-appropriate explanation. Treatment timing must balance urgency, development, cooperation and the effect of waiting.
Younger patients need developmentally appropriate diagnosis, consent and follow-up.
Dr Shrikant coordinates with Dr Archana Satpute when decay, restorability, pulp health or restoration design affects orthodontic planning. Gum, surgical, paediatric or complex jaw concerns may require another dentist or hospital-based service. Referral is a clinical decision, not a failure of care.
