Department of Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry
I’m currently working as an Assistant Professor in the Dept. of Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry, FDS, RUAS. I believe that through behavioral management, a holistic pediatric dental care can be provided to every child by taking care of their present dental disease as well as preventing the occurrence of any future dental disease. I have also attended and participated in various workshops dealing mainly in molecular and nanomaterial sciences. I’m also an avid participant in presenting various papers, video demonstrations and table clinics in National and International forum. I have more than 10 publications in peer reviewed indexed journals and have also co-authored book chapters. Apart from dentistry, I love travelling, reading and listening to music.
