Radiant 32 has one chair and one dentist. Dr Madhulika Purkait sees you at the first visit and at every visit after that, so nobody has to explain your teeth to you twice.

Same dayRelief slots for pain and swelling
Tell us the tooth that is bothering you and the clinic calls back during working hours with a slot. Nothing is charged to book, and the consultation fee of 500 rupees is paid at the clinic.
Three treatments described by the patients who had them. Reviews are published on the clinic profile at Practo.
Dr Purkait completed her BDS at Guru Nanak Institute of Dental Sciences and Research in Kolkata in 2015 and has spent eleven years in general practice since. She is registered with the West Bengal State Dental Council under number 4324A.
Her day to day work is the ordinary, useful kind: cleanings that stop gums bleeding, root canals that save a tooth already written off, crowns and bridges that let people chew on both sides again. Patients on Practo mention two things repeatedly, that the treatment stayed comfortable and that the clinic is clean.
Six treatments cover almost every appointment booked here. Anything needing a specialist, such as complex jaw surgery or fixed braces, is referred with your records and followed up afterwards.
A decayed or throbbing tooth is cleaned out, sealed and capped so you keep the tooth instead of losing it.
Hardened plaque is lifted off the gum line, which is the single fastest way to stop bleeding gums and morning breath.
A cracked, heavily filled or missing tooth is rebuilt in metal ceramic or zirconia and matched to the teeth beside it.
Loose, broken and impacted wisdom teeth are removed under local anaesthetic, with written aftercare before you leave.
Early decay is cleaned and filled in tooth coloured composite the same day, before it reaches the nerve and starts hurting.
Full and partial dentures are measured, tried in and adjusted until eating and speaking feel steady again.
The first appointment is an examination, not a sales pitch. Dr Purkait checks every tooth and the gums, takes an X ray only where one is needed, and then writes down what is wrong, what can wait and what the whole course will cost.
You leave with that plan whether or not you book the treatment. If a tooth is causing pain, relief is given the same day so you can eat and sleep, and the longer work is scheduled afterwards at your pace.
Bhowanipore families often book three generations into the same week. These are the appointments that keep the bigger treatments away.
A short, friendly look at milk teeth from around age three, with fluoride application and sealants where the back teeth have deep grooves that trap food.
Age three and upwardsLate teens and college students come in when a back tooth aches. An X ray shows whether it is erupting normally or impacted and needs removing.
Seventeen to twenty fiveBleeding gums, receding gums and loose teeth are treated with scaling and root planing, then reviewed every six months to hold the ground gained.
Reviewed twice yearly
A tooth that wakes you at night, throbs against hot drinks or has swollen the gum around it usually needs the nerve treated rather than another filling. The tooth is numbed, the infected pulp is cleaned out, the canals are sealed and a crown protects what is left.
Most cases here finish in one or two sittings. The alternative is extraction, which costs less on the day and much more later, because the gap then needs a bridge or an implant to stop the neighbouring teeth drifting.
Four reasons appear again and again in reviews and in conversation at the chair. Each one is a deliberate choice about how this clinic runs.
The same dentist, Dr Madhulika Purkait, plans and finishes your treatment, so nothing is repeated and nothing is missed between visits or handed to a locum.
Every plan lists each step with its price before consent is taken, and the written plan is given at consultation so the final bill matches the number quoted on day one.
Local anaesthetic is given time to work properly, and treatment pauses the moment you raise a hand, which is what nervous patients notice most and often mention in reviews.
Instruments are sterilised in sealed pouches and opened at the chair in front of you, while surfaces are wiped down between every single patient at every appointment.
A cracked tooth, a tooth with a large old filling or one that has just had a root canal needs covering before it splits. Crowns are made in metal ceramic or zirconia, shade matched at the chair, then cemented about a week after the impression.
Where a tooth is already missing, a fixed bridge borrows support from the teeth either side, while a removable partial denture suits several gaps at once. Both are measured, tried in and adjusted until chewing and speech feel normal again.
The clinic runs a morning and an evening session six days a week. Sunday is closed, and emergencies are handled by phone. Every detail below matches the Google Business Profile word for word.

The clinic is at 41C, Suhasini Ganguly Sarani, Bhowanipore, Kolkata 700025. Coming from Hazra or Kalighat, turn in near Ramrikdas Haralalka Hospital and the entrance is on the ground floor.
Call 070038 44216 and leave a message with your name and the problem. Emergencies are given the first free slot the next working morning.
A toothache rarely improves on its own, and the treatment is almost always smaller when it is caught early. Call the clinic or leave your number and Radiant 32 will call you back with a slot that fits your week.
Six answers to the questions that come up on the phone every week. Anything else, call the clinic and ask.
The consultation fee is 500 rupees. That covers the examination, the diagnosis and a written treatment plan with the cost of each step, so you know the full figure before anything begins.
Walk in patients are seen when the chair is free, but calling 070038 44216 first is faster. Emergencies such as swelling, bleeding or a broken tooth are fitted in on the same day wherever possible.
The tooth is numbed with local anaesthetic before the treatment starts, so the appointment itself feels like a long filling. Mild soreness for a day or two afterwards is normal and settles with the medication prescribed.
The tooth is prepared and an impression is taken at the first sitting, a temporary crown is placed, and the permanent crown is cemented about a week later once the laboratory returns it.
Most patients come from Bhowanipore, Kalighat, Elgin, Alipore and Ballygunge. The clinic sits on Suhasini Ganguly Sarani near Ramrikdas Haralalka Hospital, a short ride from Jatin Das Park metro station.
Yes. First check ups, fluoride application, sealants and milk tooth extractions are all done here. A first visit around the age of three keeps later treatment simpler and much less frightening.
