Terms & Conditions

1. About This Website

This Site provides general information about Dr. Kashmira Jathar, BDS (Maharashtra State Dental Council Registration No. A-14093 M), and the dental services offered at the Clinic, including general dentistry, preventive care, root canal and restorative treatment, gum and periodontal treatment, oral surgery, orthodontics, dental implants, dentures and pediatric dentistry.

The Site is intended for patients and prospective patients in Pune, Pimpri-Chinchwad and surrounding areas, and for anyone seeking general information about the services offered.

2. No Doctor-Patient Relationship; Not Medical Advice

The content on this Site — including service descriptions, FAQs, articles and any statistics or research references — is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not intended as, and should not be relied upon as, dental or medical advice, diagnosis or treatment for any individual condition.

Viewing this Site, submitting an enquiry form, or exchanging messages through WhatsApp or a contact form does not create a doctor-patient relationship. A doctor-patient relationship is established only after an in-person (or otherwise clinically appropriate) consultation and examination at the Clinic.

Always seek the advice of Dr. Kashmira Jathar or another qualified dental professional regarding any dental or medical condition, and before starting, stopping or changing any treatment. Never disregard professional dental advice or delay seeking it because of something you have read on this Site.

This section covers routine use of the Site. If you are experiencing a dental emergency — severe pain, uncontrolled bleeding, facial swelling affecting breathing or swallowing, or a knocked-out tooth — contact the Clinic directly or seek emergency medical care immediately; do not rely on the website for emergency guidance.

3. Accuracy of Information

We aim to keep the information on this Site accurate and up to date. However, dental research, clinical guidance and treatment options can change over time, and we make no representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability or suitability of the information, statistics or external sources referenced on the Site for any particular purpose.

Where the Site cites published research, regulatory guidance or manufacturer information, these are provided as general reference points and should not be read as a guarantee of a specific outcome for any individual patient. Individual results vary and depend on your own clinical condition, as assessed by the dentist during an in-person examination.

4. Appointments and Enquiries

• ✓Submitting a call, WhatsApp message or enquiry form through the Site does not guarantee an appointment slot; appointments are confirmed directly by the Clinic.
• ✓Please provide accurate contact details and a clear description of your concern so the Clinic can respond appropriately.
• ✓Do not share sensitive medical history, financial information or identity documents through the website contact form or WhatsApp unless you are comfortable doing so; such channels are not a substitute for a confidential in-clinic consultation.
• ✓The Clinic reserves the right to reschedule or decline an appointment at its discretion, for example where a case requires referral to a specialist or a different care setting.

5. Fees and Treatment Costs

Where the Site displays cost ranges or pricing information, these are indicative and general in nature. Final fees depend on individual diagnosis, the treatment plan agreed with the dentist, materials used, and any additional procedures required, and will be confirmed in writing before treatment begins wherever practicable. The Clinic does not guarantee that a displayed or discussed range will match the final cost of your treatment.

6. Intellectual Property
