I am the person who was always given the impression of a dentist as the most difficult and scary person to go to. The importance of regular dentist checkups was never inculcated within me as a kid. The result? I started ignoring my dental health very casually.
So, years of ignoring my teeth' aesthetics had left me with teeth having stains and dull layers. The only thing I could do to improve my dental health was take the dentist's help. Going to the workplace and meeting friends and family with this condition of teeth and a compromised smile has only put me in a condition of shame and awkwardness in front of people.
My inferiority complex was now overpowering the fear of the dentist, and I badly wanted to get a comfortable dental clinic in Bandra that provides me with the much-needed treatment lines and also helps me get through the treatment without having anxiety bouts.
The moment I searched " dental clinic in Bandra" on my phone, I got flooded with a huge map with multiple options.
Each clinic had acceptable aesthetics, nice reviews, and overpowering ratings. I was already a person who was fearful of dentists, and now seeing multiple of them with treatments getting highlighted only gave me a panic attack. I immediately dismissed the idea of searching online and tried to go by someone's personal experience.
Luckily, one of my relatives was undergoing dental treatment, and the clinic happened to be in Bandra only. I asked her about the experience, and in no time, I also booked my appointment.
The First Visit
That’s when I saw a clean, calm-looking clinic tucked beside a boutique. No loud banners. No fake promises. Just soft lighting and a quiet space. The receptionist greeted me with a warm smile, not the forced “next please” kind. When I met the dentist, I told her everything that I was new to Mumbai, nervous, and a little embarrassed to be there for something as “small” as teeth whitening.
The dentist explained to me that I have stains and plaque, so it's always better to get the dental cleaning before going for teeth whitening.
She also explained to me that whitening does not give pearl shine to teeth but regains the natural tone and colour of the teeth.
She asked me if I wanted to continue the treatment the same day or if I would like to come on another day. Since I was so comfortable with the dentist and ambience, I went on for teeth cleaning on the same day.
The experience was super comfortable, and I started to realize that for all these years, I was unnecessarily getting fearful.
Treatment summary
Two days later, I went in again for the rest of the treatment. My teeth whitening was done in an hour or so, without any pain, irritation, or discomfort. I never knew dentistry could be this comfortable as well. I never noticed my smile this deeply before.
The prices I paid after treatment justified the amount of comfort and desired results I got. I was very happy and satisfied.
After That Day, walking out, I noticed how beautiful Bandra actually was. Maybe it was always this pretty, but that day, I saw it differently. The same streets looked warmer. The sea breeze felt softer. Even the honking of cars didn’t bother me. It’s strange how fixing one small thing can shift your whole perspective.
Looking Back
When I think about it now, I realize that moment was my real “welcome to Mumbai.” Not the day I signed my lease or got my offer letter, but the day I decided to do something for myself. Teeth whitening didn’t just brighten my smile. It made me feel at home in my own skin — and in this city that once felt too big.
And it all started at Signature Smiles Dental Clinic in Bandra, the place that helped me find my confidence again.
