Practising orthodontics and pediatric dentistry at Spruhad Multispeciality Clinic, Shivajinagar.
Dr. Shalgar leads Spruhad's dental side of the practice, focused specifically on orthodontics and pediatric dentistry — treating the two together rather than as separate departments, since so much orthodontic work begins with decisions made in childhood.
That focus shapes how the clinic runs day to day: appointments for young children are paced to keep them calm, and orthodontic cases are planned with an eye on how a growing bite will keep changing, not just how it looks on the day the appliance goes on.
For a young or anxious patient, the first goal is comfort in the chair — the treatment itself can wait a visit if needed.
Orthodontic cases are assessed as a full bite, not tooth by tooth — so the appliance chosen fits the actual movement needed.
Continuity of care matters most in long treatments like braces — the same doctor tracks every adjustment from start to finish.
