For over a decade, Dr. Tanya Kusum has built a quiet reputation in Mumbai for treating dentistry as a craft — meticulous, considered, and deeply personal.
A short note from Dr. Tanya — on practice, philosophy, and the quiet ambition behind opening this clinic.
Clinic Entrance · Marble ArchI trained at Govt. Medical College, Nagpur — one of the most demanding programs in the country. The patients we saw there often came in with conditions that had been ignored for years. What I learned, more than any technique, was that good dentistry is mostly listening.
After my MDS I spent three years pursuing fellowships in craniofacial trauma and advanced implantology. The first taught me to be unafraid of the difficult cases. The second taught me how to rebuild what time, accident, or neglect had taken away.
Dental Den was born out of a quiet frustration with how dentistry is often delivered — rushed, transactional, alarming. I wanted to build a place where the chair feels like a chair, not a verdict. Where patients are treated as people, not procedures. Where saying "you don't need that" is as common as saying "let's begin."
That is the practice I run today, and the team I am lucky to lead.

Continuing education through international conferences in implantology, aesthetics, and digital dentistry.
The best dentistry is the kind you barely notice. It looks like nothing happened — and feels like everything is exactly where it should be.
Practice principles we keep — to ourselves, and to every patient who walks through the door.
If the problem can be solved with a filling, we don't propose a crown. If it can be watched, we watch. We earn trust by recommending less, not more — and always explaining why.
Modern dentistry doesn't have to hurt. We use micro-injection techniques, proper anesthesia, sedation when appropriate, and time. No procedure begins until you're truly comfortable.
You'll see a written estimate before any treatment begins. We'll tell you what's covered by your insurance, what isn't, and where you have flexibility. No surprise bills. Ever.
