About Dr Lalith

About Dr Lalith

26+ years is a long time to practice dentistry, and Dr Lalith has spent the last 22+ of those years focused almost entirely on periodontics and implantology, the cases that don't respond to routine treatment and that other clinics tend to refer out.

His PhD in Periodontics, one of the very few awarded in this field in India, was appreciated and conferred by the Hon'ble President of India, Shri Ram Nath Kovind. He founded PRALASH health care in 2012, built PRALASH Dentique into a clinic focused on advanced dental and orofacial rehabilitation, and leads it today as CEO and Director. He also founded the Academy of Ingenuity Dentistry, where he trains younger dentists in implant work through hands on practice.

That teaching habit shows up in consultations too. He explains what he sees in your mouth the way he'd explain it to a student, in plain terms, before he talks about treatment.

For the Whole Family

Trusted Dental Care for Whole Family at PRALASH Dermystique & Dentique

Even though Dr Lalith own specialisation is periodontics and implantology, PRALASH Dermystique and Dentique also functions as a family dentist for households in bangalore, with routine checkups, fillings, and preventive care handled alongside his specialist work. Many patients start with a small complaint, a bleeding gum or a loose tooth, and only realise later it needed a specialist's eye rather than a filling.

For patients with children, the clinic also coordinates visits with a dentist trained for younger patients, so a family doesn't need three different clinics for three different age groups.

In His Chair

Why Patients Choose Dr. Lalith

A lot of patients in Dr Lalith chair have already tried somewhere else. An implant that didn't take. A gum problem that kept coming back no matter what toothpaste or mouthwash they switched to. A case where the family dentist took one look and said this needs a specialist. What usually brings them back after the first visit isn't the wall of certificates, it's that he actually sits down and explains what's going on in the mouth before jumping to what he wants to do about it.

He also doesn't shy away from telling a patient the honest timeline, even when it's longer than they hoped. If someone has diabetes or a bone density issue, that changes how an implant case gets planned, and his own research on implants in systemically compromised patients means he's dealt with that conversation more times than most dentists in the city have.

That's usually what people mean when they call him an experienced dentist in Bangalore. Not the framed degrees on the wall. The fact that he's seen the complicated version of your problem before.

Patient Voices

What Patients Say

"
★★★★★

I visited the clinic after I had been to many dentists for the same problem. Excellent diagnosis by Dr Lalith. I could see the change within a week after following the treatment, after suffering for over 7 months. He was extremely patient with all my queries, highly qualified and experienced. People with dental problems, Pralash Dentique is the place to go to.

I had the privilege of learning implantology under Dr Lalith. His teaching was detailed, practical, and easy to follow, which helped me understand implant procedures with confidence. He was patient, supportive, and encouraged us to ask questions and focus on precision. The clinical setup was professional and well equipped.

Got a dental implant done here. Dr Lalith explained the whole process. The treatment was at an affordable price, and the clinic was clean and well maintained.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

The area is numbed before placement, so the procedure itself isn't painful. The day or two after is where most people feel it, usually described as similar to having a tooth pulled, and it's manageable with the medication the clinic prescribes.

Done properly and looked after, implants often go well past ten years. That said, it isn't a fixed number for everyone. Gum health, bone density, and how consistent you are with cleaning and follow up visits all affect how long yours holds up.

It depends on the case. A straightforward checkup costs less than a consultation that needs imaging or a scan to plan an implant properly. The clinic will confirm the exact fee before you come in, not after.

Yes. Adults get routine dental care here alongside pediatric dentist visits for kids, so you're not managing three different clinics for three different age groups. If a case turns out to need periodontal or implant work, it gets referred straight into Dr Lalith specialist practice instead of you having to find that referral yourself.

It can be, but it needs proper assessment first. Dr Lalith research specifically looked at implant outcomes in systemically compromised patients, so this is judged case by case, not assumed.

If the same problem keeps returning after treatment, or there's bone loss involved, that's usually the point where a periodontist should take a look. Most of the time, a single consultation is enough to tell you which one you actually need.
