Sakti Dental & Orthodontic Clinic is a multi-speciality dental centre at H-118, Kamarajar Salai, Anbunagar, Palayamkottai, Tirunelveli. Running for more than 17 years, the clinic is led by Dr. Shiva Sankar, BDS, MDS (Orthodontics), and supported by a panel of six specialist dentists — so a patient who walks in for a routine cleaning and turns out to need implant surgery or gum treatment is treated in the same building, by the specialist for that discipline, without a referral to another city.
The practice covers general, preventive, cosmetic, surgical and paediatric dentistry, with a particular depth in orthodontics — braces, clip treatment and clear aligners for both children and adults. Patients travel to the clinic from across Tirunelveli district, including Palayamkottai, Melapalayam, Vannarpettai, Perumalpuram, Tirunelveli Town and the surrounding taluks.

Why Patients Choose This Clinic
- Specialist-led, not generalist-led. Braces are planned by an MDS orthodontist, root canals by an endodontist, gum surgery by a periodontist — each case handled by the person trained for it.
- 17+ years in the same locality. Long-running practice in Palayamkottai with follow-up records, which matters for multi-year treatments like braces and implants.
- Long working hours. 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM, six days a week, so appointments fit around office and college schedules.
- Cost planning up front. Treatment estimates are explained before starting, with EMI and minimum-down-payment options on higher-value work such as implants, full-mouth rehabilitation and orthodontics.
- Preventive focus. Routine check-ups and professional cleaning are encouraged rather than upsold, with the clinic running dental camps and awareness lectures in and around Tirunelveli.
Visiting the Clinic
The clinic is on Kamarajar Salai in Anbunagar, Palayamkottai — a short drive from Tirunelveli Junction railway station and the Palayamkottai bus stand, with parking on site. Timings: Monday to Saturday, 9:00 AM – 9:00 PM. Sunday closed. Appointments can be booked by landline on 0462-2534585 or on WhatsApp at +91 82207 04585. Walk-ins are accepted, but a prior appointment is recommended for orthodontic consultations and implant planning, since those need a longer chair slot.
First visit tip: carry any previous X-rays, prescriptions or treatment records. If the visit is for braces or aligners, expect a photographic and X-ray record to be taken on the first day so the treatment plan and cost can be given in writing.
