I became a dentist because: Dentistry changed my life for the better after extensive dental
treatment in my early 20’s (orthognathic surgery + orthodontics). Initially being a shy and timid
person, I transformed into a more confident and happier version of myself and aim to help
others achieve the same happiness through their smile.
I love my community because: Pediatric dentistry plays a unique and key role in shaping a
child’s perception of oral health that will carry on to their adulthood.
I chose to work with children because: In addition to being honest and sincere, kids say the
funniest things!
