Experience: | 7 years |
Education: | Annoor Dental College |
Academic degree: | Bachelor of Dental Surgery |
Area of specialization: | I am a general dentist who’s hands-on with almost every core procedure you can think of in day-to-day practice. I handle a lot of things—pain management, fillings for carious teeth, crown placements, and yep... extractions too (both routine and not-so-simple ones). I do root canal treatment when needed, especially pulpectomies for kids, and I’m also trained in giving local anesthesia safely, which btw is more about trust than technique sometimes.
Radiograph devlopment, X-ray processing, sealant applications, and preventive care like polishing & cleaning—these are part of my regular routine. I’m always looking at gum health too, early signs of periodontal issues often get missed, and I try not to let that slide. Emergencies are unpredictable, but I’ve learned to handle dental trauma cases and walk-ins without panicking (even if the pt is mid freakout).
Safety protocols matter a lot to me—sterilization, sharps handling, PPE rules, the whole setup. I work with removable prosthetics too, and I actually like that bit where you make something that helps ppl talk, smile, eat better again. It's underrated honestly.
What I really care about tho is making the pt feel heard. Not just treated. That one thing kinda makes everything else smoother, even when the case is tough. |
Achievements: | I am someone who's always trying to stay sharp with hands-on skills, esp when it comes to pediatric cases. I recently did a workshop focused on pulpectomy and stainless steel crowns—which honestly helped me refine a lot of things I thought I already “knew.” From access opening tricks to crown fitting basics that usually get skipped in routine OPD setups, it was all super practical. Small stuff like that really makes a diff when you're in the middle of a squirmy kid case and time’s ticking. |
I am a dentist with 6 years of just... real hands-on practice, working closely with a great staff (who honestly make half the difference on busy days). Patient management isn’t just a skill, it's kinda like an everyday challenge—you’re balancing expectations, fears, pain, cost talks, and trying to stay kind through all of it. I try to be that kind of dentist who doesn't just treat the tooth but explains why, listens properly, and doesn’t rush the chair-time unless absolutely needed. My core work covers diagnosis, treatment planning, and all the common clinical stuff—crowns, extractions, basic RCTs when needed, radiograph reading. I’m pretty confident when it comes to recommending what’s best for tooth preservation. I mean yeah, pulling a tooth is faster, but if I think a root canal will save it long-term, I’d always choose that. Not everyone agrees right away, and that’s okay—we talk it through. I do oversee pediatric cases too, and honestly, kids dentistry either makes or breaks your day haha. It’s rewarding though. You learn patience, fast thinking, and how to be part dentist part entertainer. I’m comfortable working in both English and Malayalam which helps a lot esp with patient comfort where I’m based. I’ve also had to take on a managing dentist role more than once. Not always easy, but it pushes you to look at the clinic as a full system—not just your own chair. There’s team dynamics, inventory stuff, workflow, scheduling issues, all the little behind-the-scenes things patients never see but definitely feel when they’re off. I’m still figuring out where I wanna specialize more deeply but I know for sure that I’m not done learning. Dentistry's evolving and staying updated isn’t optional anymore. I just wanna keep getting better at what I do and help ppl walk out of my clinic a little more confident, a lil less afraid of the next visit.
