About the Clinic
A Dental Clinic in Gandhi Nagar, Adyar
M & M Advanced Dentistry is a dental clinic located in Gandhi Nagar, Adyar, Chennai. The clinic is led by two specialist dentists, Dr. Muralidharan Balaji (prosthodontist and implantologist) and Dr. Mrithulaa Vadivel Kumar (orthodontist), who together support patients with general and specialised dental care — from routine cleanings and check-ups to implants, braces and clear aligners, and full mouth rehabilitation.
Whether you're looking for a dentist in Adyar for a routine visit or want to discuss a specific concern such as missing teeth, crooked teeth, or jaw pain, the team can talk you through your options during a consultation. The clinic is open Monday to Saturday, 9:30 am to 8:30 pm, and closed on Sundays.
M & M Advanced Dentistry is led by two specialist dentists — a prosthodontist and implantologist, and an orthodontist.
Prosthodontist & Implantologist
Dr. Muralidharan Balaji
BDS, MDS (Prosthodontics)
Dr. Muralidharan Balaji is a prosthodontist and implantologist at M & M Advanced Dentistry. He holds a Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) and a Master of Dental Surgery (MDS) with a specialisation in Prosthodontics - the branch of dentistry concerned with replacing missing teeth and restoring damaged ones, through treatments such as crowns, bridges, dentures and dental implants.
Dr. Mrithulaa Vadivel Kumar is an orthodontist at M & M Advanced Dentistry. She holds a BDS and an MDS in Orthodontics - the branch of dentistry focused on correcting the alignment of teeth and jaws using braces, clear aligners and related appliances.
A BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery) is the primary degree that qualifies a dentist to practise general dentistry. An MDS (Master of Dental Surgery) is a further postgraduate qualification in a specific branch of dentistry, usually taken after BDS. Dentists pursue an MDS to focus on a particular area of treatment in more depth — in this case, prosthodontics and orthodontics.
This doesn't mean every dental procedure needs a specialist; many routine treatments are well within the scope of general dental practice. For the implant, prosthetic and orthodontic treatments offered here, having a prosthodontist and an orthodontist on the team means these cases can be handled by dentists with focused postgraduate training in those specific areas.
M & M Advanced Dentistry brings specialist-led care, a wide range of treatments and practical opening hours together in one clinic in Gandhi Nagar, Adyar. Here are the reasons patients most often give for choosing us.
Two specialist dentists on one team
Dr. Muralidharan Balaji (prosthodontist and implantologist) and Dr. Mrithulaa Vadivel Kumar (orthodontist) each hold an MDS alongside their BDS, bringing focused postgraduate training in restorative and implant care and in orthodontics to the same clinic.

See the Dental Treatments section above, or call the clinic to ask about a specific concern.
What is root canal treatment, and when might I need it?
Root canal treatment is used when the soft tissue inside a tooth, called the pulp, becomes infected or inflamed — often due to deep decay, a crack, or injury. The infected tissue is removed and the tooth is sealed, with the aim of relieving pain and saving the natural tooth. A dentist can confirm whether it is the right option after an examination.
What does full mouth rehabilitation involve?
Full mouth rehabilitation means restoring most or all of the teeth in the mouth, using a combination of treatments such as implants, crowns, bridges or dentures based on what each patient needs. Because it combines several treatments, the plan is worked out individually after a consultation and examination.
