Overview
Eka Dental Care, founded in 2024, operates a network of dental clinics across Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai from its Mumbai headquarters. The company positions itself as a provider of premium clinical standards at prices that are affordable for the average Indian household.
Clinical Team and Quality Protocols
All clinics employ dentists qualified with MDS or BDS degrees, and senior doctors supervise complex procedures to ensure consistent outcomes. A five‑step sterilization protocol is applied uniformly, involving autoclaves, sealed instrument pouches and UV‑sterilisation cabinets, with regular quality audits confirming compliance. The firm emphasizes ethical practice, recommending treatments solely on medical need and avoiding hard‑selling of unnecessary procedures.
Patient Volume and Outcomes
Eka Dental Care reports having treated more than 20,000 patients to date. It has completed over 1,000 dental implant procedures and more than 10,000 root‑canal treatments. Across its locations the practice holds a 4.8‑star rating on Google, reflecting high patient satisfaction.
Pricing Model and Cost Structure
The company eliminates the consultation fee, removing the initial cost barrier for diagnosis. Treatment prices for routine cleanings, fillings, root canals, crowns, dentures, implants, braces and aligners are consistently positioned below typical market rates in Mumbai. Prices are presented in a fully transparent, itemised format so patients know the exact cost before treatment, with no hidden charges.
Technology Integration and Operational Efficiency
CEO and Co‑Founder Sachin Katira explains that the business model leverages artificial intelligence and digital tools for treatment planning and patient management. These technologies reduce time spent on diagnosis and paperwork, allowing the firm to cut unnecessary margins and inefficiencies without compromising clinical quality.
Cost‑Saving Philosophy
Eka Dental Care distinguishes between two ways of lowering prices: (1) compromising on material quality, sterilisation or diagnostic time – which it rejects – and (2) eliminating unjustified margins, hidden fees and operational waste – which it adopts. Savings therefore stem from operational efficiency rather than reduced care standards.
