Oral Medicine
Some of the most common problems related to Oral medicine that we have diagnosed and treated in our clinic have been:
- Ulcers: Most ulcers resolve themselves without medication over a period of 7 to 10 days. However, ulcers that keeps recurring or stay longer than 10 days might have to be diagnosed further. This can be done by taking a proper history, a careful examination, carrying out various tests or maybe carrying out a biopsy. They could have causes such as the outcome of certain medications, skin rashes having manifestations in the mouth, viral, bacterial or fungal infections, as a part of some systemic medical diseases and, rarely, malignancy.
- Autoimmune diseases: Autoimmune diseases are those in which the body’s defense cells start acting against the body’s organs and tissues. Sjogren’s syndrome which could be a primary condition or could be secondary to another autoimmune disorder is one of the most common but rarely diagnosed autoimmune disorders. Since there is lack of saliva and tears in this disorder, it is commonly diagnosed at the dentist’s office.
Patients suffering from various autoimmune diseases such as Psoriasis, Systemic Lupus erythematosus or Scleroderma could also benefit from dental intervention at our centre.
- Severe inflammatory reactions: such as Oral Lichen Planus : lesions can appear as either white, lacy, raised patches of tissue that resemble spiderwebs or tender, swollen patches that are bright red. They can cause pain, burning or other discomfort to the patient
- Temporomandibular disorders: We deal with relieving painful temporomandibular joints at our clinic. However, the surgical aspect of Temporomandibular Joints is dealt by our specialists in other hospitals.
So what is Oral Medicine?

What our patients have said....
Best dentist in my opinion.
Really great. I had a WONDERFUL experience. Good tips to keep the teeth’s shining and cavity free.
Great experience
I got the periodontal surgery done by Dr Sajili. Initially I was a bit apprehensive about the procedure, but the Dr made the entire process very easy and smooth. She was very patient in explaining everything and very supportive in the post surgery follow-ups.
Most Ethical Dental Surgeon
“Visited Dr. Sajili Mittal’s clinic a few years ago after having a number of “not good” experiences. Was a bit scared too initilally. But the way my problem was handled at her clinic made me so at ease, comfortable and relaxed.
At Dr. Sajili Mittal’s clinic, everything is explained in detail & giving all the possible options to be decided by the patient himself. Since my first visit, I never felt uncomfortable and always feel free to discuss even the smallest possible issues. Besides being a good dentist, Dr. Sajili Mittal, is a very good human being too. She makes her patients comfortable, understands their issues and accordingly suggests possible and affordable options ( NOT creating fear factor).
Besides, being highly experienced and knowledgeable, Dr. Sajili Mittal is a person of ETHICS and MORALITY which is rare to find these days in our society. My Best Wishes to Dr. Sajili Mittal.”
Professional dentist
My experience with Dr. Sajili has been amazing. She has genuine care for her patients and never fails to engage and explain everything in detail. She is professionally approachable and friendly.
I highly recommend Dr Sajili.

Best Root Canal Treatment by Dr. Sajili
“Every experience I’ve had in the dentist’s chair has been miserable, until now. Citylife Dental has the most compassionate team of dentists I’ve ever seen. They understand (and therefore can eliminate) fear and pain. The work they’ve done on my teeth which includes root canal, scaling and whitening has been top quality. Add to that their ability to calm the nervous wreck in the chair and you have a combination of skills that can’t be beat. I’m no longer afraid, and that’s pretty much a miracle. I can’t recommend these guys enough.”
Brilliant Citylife Dental
My experience at Citylife Dental was very good.
Dr. Sajili is a very professional dentist and made sure I understood everything. Her patient handling and education skills are excellent. She is a confident doctor and knows the art of dentistry well. The staff at Citylife Dental was humble and courteous.
After I was done I expected a very large bill but the prices were nominal.
Even though I don’t like going to a dentist , but Citylife Dental made it a good experience.
Next visit due after 6 months!

Best Dentist for NRI’s in New Delhi
Well to start with I met Dr.Sajili and her team 10 years ago when i was planning to move abroad. It started with basic gum issues and root canal.
Now i am an NRI but whenever i visit India make sure my dental issues are handled properly. Thanks goes to Dr. Sajili for her warm, affectionate, caring and patient nature. A professional touch on the top is what everyone gets for sure. She is intelligent, confident, has a sound experience in her specialisation and makes sure the patient in contented at the end of the treatment. Well as far as her clinic is concerned she does not compromise on quality and hygiene.AT work front she even follows her patients after the treatment is complete for their concern if any. I was also given 2 implants by Dr. Sajili which are very much intact as i follow her advice regularly. Will recommend Citylife Dental, Yojana Vihar for overall satisfaction under the leadership of Dr. Sajili.
Good luck and Best wishes always
Very satisfied with Dental treatment
My wife Dr Roma Raj and I just walked into Citylife Dental for a complete dental check-up, soon after from the US. We found the clinic’s hygiene and comfort levels at par with any good clinic in the US. The doctor’s mannerisms were so good that we signed up with Citylife for our complete dental treatment plans and since then we have felt very satisfied with the treatment, rates, punctuality and professional approach of their team to our dental problems.
There are no short cuts in this clinic.
May God keep the healing touch of this centre alive for years to come.
One Stop Dental treatment for whole family
I didn’t take any treatment, but accompanied my niece and my father-in-law to Citylife Dental, and I believe that they really liked the treatment and benefited out of it. I would really like to comment about the quality of their resident specialist dentists, I feel that they are empathetic & ethical dentists, which I feel every doctor should be. They give sincere advice on ideal treatment options regardless of commercial considerations.
Best Dentist
The best dentist near Anand Vihar, New Delhi. Thanks

Very Caring Dentist
I came across city life dental for dental problems off and on for last 6 years. Though i live in west Delhi and clinic is located in east Delhi via Karkardooma metro station on blue line. From there taking shared e rickshaw up to red light crossing of Ashoka Niketan to reach A 85 Yojana Vihar made my life easy from transportation point of view. I visited this clinic first time in 2013 but the atmosphere, behavior, care, personal and detailed attention looking into minute details of health and history of patient is routine in this clinic. They treated me as if they are treating themselves. Such personal touch care quality sincerity, responsibility with lower cost as well made me my permanent destination to visit city life dental until now in 2019. Dr Sajili Mittal MDS renders multi-focal care with personal touch. She takes total responsibility of dental care if proper timely visits are made. I wish the clinic all the best.
Very professional treatment
The team here is both extremely professional and extremely kind and generous. Ashok and Sajili took wonderful care of me both with my gum surgery and my short stay in Delhi. They have gentle warm spirits. Thanks for everything from breakfast with chai to the gum graft itself!
Knowledgeable Dentist and Staff
My family and I have been coming to the clinic for the last one year. What makes me come here is the cleanliness of the clinic, staff’s behavior, operational knowledge and the hygiene level of the staff. My whole family is very satisfied here. The most important is the amount of time the doctors spend with the patient listening & explaining the treatment. Their patience level is fantastic. Keep up the good work!
