Meerut has an estimated 1.9 million (19 lakh) residents in 2025, based on the UN's 2024 World Population Prospects urban-area estimate. That makes it number 38 among the 100 largest cities in this directory, and falls in our Mid (1-2M) size band. At the assumed growth of 2.2% a year, it would reach about 2.1 million by 2030, so demand for dentists and every other speciality is likely to keep rising.
Scaling Uttar Pradesh's 1.25 beds per 1,000 people (the India-wide figure is about 1.39) to the city's population gives roughly 2,300 hospital beds in Meerut, including about 120 ICU beds, spread across an estimated 140 hospitals (about 38 public and 100 private). That is about 800 residents for every bed and around 16 beds per hospital on average. Measured against the WHO's often-quoted benchmark of 3 beds per 1,000 people, the city would need roughly 3,300 more beds, which is one reason private clinics and hospitals carry so much of the load.

Specialist head-counts are not published city by city, so these figures show scale, not how many dentists practise in Meerut.

How much does a dentist consultation cost in Meerut?
Fees depend on the doctor's experience, the type of facility and the tests or procedures involved, and we do not publish unverified prices. Ask the clinic for the consultation fee and any follow-up charges when you call; government hospitals generally charge much less than private clinics.
