Our Services

Comprehensive dentistry.
Advanced aesthetics.

From routine dental checkups and single-sitting root canals to advanced aesthetic treatments — Face PRP, Hair PRP, GFC, chemical peels — Karigai Dental and Aesthetics handles it all in Gerugambakkam, with written treatment plans and honest starting prices for dental, and personally consulted quotes for aesthetics.

Preventive Care

The two visits a year
that save you five later.

Regular preventive care is 4× cheaper than repair. Two checkups a year catch problems while they're still small.

Dental Checkup & Consultation

Your first consultation is ₹200. Includes a complete oral exam, one IOPA digital X-ray, and a written treatment plan you take home before you decide on anything. Dr Perarivalan personally sees every new patient.

  • What's includedExam · one X-ray · treatment plan
  • Time25–30 min
  • Starting price₹200 · includes exam & plan

Teeth Cleaning (Scaling & Polishing)

Ultrasonic scaling removes tartar the toothbrush can't reach. Polishing smooths the tooth surface so plaque takes longer to return. Most patients are in and out in 30 minutes — one visit, both jaws.

  • What's includedUltrasonic scaling · polishing · fluoride rinse
  • Time30 min
  • Starting priceFrom ₹800 · both jaws
Restorative

Save the tooth first.
Extract only if we must.

Modern fillings, single-sitting root canals, and metal-free crowns. We use materials that colour-match your existing teeth so nobody knows you had it done.

Composite (Tooth-coloured) Filling

Tooth-coloured composite that bonds to your natural enamel. No silver, no metal. Usually done in a single 30-minute visit. Priced per surface, not per tooth — small fillings cost less than large ones.

  • Materials3M Filtek · Ivoclar Tetric
  • Time30 min per tooth
  • Starting priceFrom ₹1,200 · per surface

Root Canal Treatment (RCT)

Single-sitting root canals for most anterior teeth. Rotary instruments and modern anaesthesia make it painless — the myth of the "painful root canal" is exactly that. You save the tooth instead of extracting it.

  • What's includedAnaesthesia · rotary RCT · post-op X-ray
  • Time45–90 min · usually one visit
  • Starting priceFrom ₹4,500 · anterior tooth

Zirconia Crown

Metal-free crown that looks and behaves like the tooth next to it. Fitted over an RCT-treated tooth or a broken tooth to restore full function. Made in a dedicated dental lab — fitting takes two visits, one week apart.

  • MaterialsZolid Zirconia · PFM alternative
  • Time2 visits · one week gap
  • Starting priceFrom ₹9,500 · per crown

  • MethodLED-activated hydrogen peroxide gel
  • Time60 min · single visit

Implants that feel like
the teeth you had at 20.

From a single missing tooth to a full-mouth restoration. We use only titanium implants from Nobel Biocare and Straumann — the same brands used in Chennai's top specialist clinics.

  • Starting priceFrom ₹28,000 / implant · EMI available

  • Time45–90 min
  • Starting priceFrom ₹3,500 · straight extraction
Kids' Dentistry

A first dentist visit
that doesn't end in tears.

A dedicated kids' corner with toys and colouring books, dentists trained in child-friendly language, and a no-scary-drill policy where the treatment allows.

First-visit Kids' Checkup

For children aged 3+. A gentle exam, count-the-teeth game, a chair ride, and a lollipop-free reward at the end. No scary instruments in view. If treatment is needed, we schedule it for the next visit so the first stays positive.

  • Ages3+ · we recommend the first visit by age 3
  • Time15–20 min
  • Starting priceFrom ₹500 · free with a parent's checkup

Fluoride Varnish & Sealants

Painless preventive treatments that reduce cavity risk by up to 70%. Fluoride varnish is painted on in seconds. Sealants seal the deep grooves of newly-erupted molars. Both take 10–15 minutes total.

  • Best ageSealants: 6–14 · Fluoride: 3+
  • Time10–15 min
  • Starting priceFrom ₹800 · per treatment
Aesthetics

Advanced aesthetic care,
on the same clinical standard.

Face PRP, Hair PRP, GFC, and chemical peels — delivered personally by Dr Perarivalan I, RCSI Ireland trained. Every aesthetic visit begins with a consult so the protocol matches your skin, your hair, and your goals.

Face PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

Your own blood is drawn, centrifuged to isolate platelet-rich plasma, and micro-injected into the skin. The growth factors trigger collagen production — improving glow, fine lines, and overall skin quality. Typically 3 sessions, 4 weeks apart.

  • Protocol3 sessions · 4 weeks apart
  • Time45–60 min per session
  • PricingPersonally consulted & quoted upfront

Hair PRP

PRP injected into the scalp to stimulate dormant hair follicles, slow shedding, and support natural regrowth. Best for early-to-moderate androgenic hair loss. Drug-free, no oral medication. Typically 4–6 sessions, 4 weeks apart.

  • Protocol4–6 sessions · 4 weeks apart
  • Time45–60 min per session
  • PricingPersonally consulted & quoted upfront

GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) Treatment

The next-generation upgrade to PRP. A specialised kit extracts a purer, higher-concentration growth factor plasma — no red blood cells, no leucocytes. Same skin and hair applications as PRP, better yield per session, less downtime.

  • Difference from PRPPurer plasma · higher growth factor yield
  • Time45–60 min per session
  • PricingPersonally consulted & quoted upfront

Chemical Peels

Professional-grade peels for acne scars, hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone, and general skin renewal. Peel depth (superficial, medium) is chosen for your skin type and concern after a consult. Downtime varies from none to 3–5 days depending on depth.

  • Concerns treatedAcne scars · pigmentation · tone · texture
  • Time30–45 min per session
  • PricingPersonally consulted & quoted upfront
