Dr. Pravin Shetty

Co-Founder

MDS - Orthodontics

Dr. Pravin Shetty is one of the pioneers who brought clear aligner technology to India. With over 24 years of clinical experience, he has spent his career advancing orthodontics in India toward more discreet, precise, and accessible treatment options. He trained internationally in lingual orthodontics and went on to develop India's first CAD/CAM 3D lingual bracket system (Lingualmatrix), a breakthrough that made invisible, behind-the-teeth orthodontic correction possible for Indian patients for the first time. At Toothsi, Dr. Shetty oversees the planning, design, and monitoring of smile plans, ensuring every patient's treatment is backed by the same clinical rigor that has defined his career, now delivered at scale through technology.
