About Happy Tooth

A family of specialists, caring for your family

Happy Tooth was founded in Mohamadwadi with a simple belief: dental care should be gentle, honest and genuinely caring — for children and grown-ups alike. What began as a specialist pediatric practice has grown into a complete family dental home, backed by an expert consultant panel spanning every dental specialty.
