Meet Dr. Subash Chandar

Straightening teeth is only part of orthodontics. The real work is understanding why teeth have moved out of place, how the jaws are growing or have grown, and what will keep the result stable years from now. That is the thinking Dr. N. Subash Chandar brings to every case.

Background

Dr. Subash completed his postgraduate specialist training in Orthodontics & Dentofacial Orthopaedics at PGIMER, Chandigarh, one of the country’s most respected medical institutes. With 19 years of clinical experience, his work spans teenagers and adults, and cases that range from mild crowding to bite problems that need careful, long-term planning.

He is the co-founder and director of Aligning Dentistry, which he built together with Dr. Venkata Seetha Lakshmi around a simple idea: specialist-led dental care should feel personal, unhurried and honest.

Treatment philosophy

Good orthodontics is planned before it is performed. Dr. Subash believes a patient should understand their diagnosis, the options available and the reasons behind his recommendation before treatment begins. He aims for results that look natural, function well and last, rather than the fastest route to straight teeth.

How he cares for patients

Patients often arrive unsure, sometimes anxious, and occasionally after a difficult experience elsewhere. Dr. Subash starts by listening. After a thorough examination and digital scan, he walks you through what he sees, shows you the expected outcome where the technology allows, and explains the alternatives, including the ones he would not recommend and why. Progress is reviewed at regular visits, so you always know where your treatment stands.

Where Dr. Subash Can Help

Dr. Subash’s focus is orthodontics. Where a smile needs more than tooth movement, he plans alongside the clinic’s other specialists, so your care stays coordinated under one roof.

Invisalign clear aligners

A near-invisible, removable alternative to traditional braces, planned digitally before the first aligner is made. Patient benefit: you see the projected outcome early and treat without visible brackets or wires.

Braces and orthodontics

Metal, ceramic and self-ligating systems, chosen to suit your case, age and lifestyle. Patient benefit: a bite that works properly, not only teeth that look straight.

Smile makeover planning

Orthodontic alignment is often the foundation of a lasting cosmetic result. Patient benefit: veneers, whitening or gum work, where needed, rest on a well-aligned base.

Orthodontic planning for dental implants

Teeth sometimes need to be repositioned to create the right space for an implant. Patient benefit: better spacing and a more natural, balanced result.

Children’s jaw and bite guidance

Early assessment can guide growth and reduce the need for complex treatment later. Patient benefit: simpler, more comfortable care during growing years.
