Introduce Dr. Divya Multi-Speciality Family Dental Clinic. Tell us about the various ailments, treatments, and procedures that the clinic specializes in.

Dr. Divya Multi-Speciality Family Dental Clinic is widely known for its commitment to excellence. We have a dedicated and experienced team of dental specialists in the field of Periodontics and Oral implantology, orthodontics, endodontics, prosthodontics, and oral surgery who take care of all the dental needs of our patients with a professional and patient-friendly attitude. We work on the motto that a better life starts with a better smile, and we consistently try to deliver that to our patients.

What are some of the critical challenges you encounter as a healthcare practitioner? What are your key priorities while treating a patient?

The biggest challenge I feel is the lack of awareness regarding regular dental care among the general population. Even though regular dental awareness and check-up camps are organized by IDA, still people from small towns and cities feel that dentistry is expensive. Dentistry is not expensive, but neglect from the public ultimately ends up in costly treatment. My main priority is to deliver smiles to all my patients and to waive their dental anxieties with a caring hand and a friendly attitude.

Tell us about the milestones which you have achieved in your professional journey. What is your mantra for success?

Being a dental tutor, academician, as well as dental clinician, is something I consider the biggest milestones I have achieved in my professional career. I can proudly say that I always try to fulfill my responsibilities and duties with utmost dedication. My mantra for success is that you must be consistent in your efforts, and you must keep yourself away from all the negative influences around you, then no one can stop you from achieving your goals.

How do you foresee Indian dentistry evolving in the future? Which industry trends will make the most impact going forward?

Dentistry is evolving at a tremendous pace in the past few years. Be it in terms of new technology like dental scanners, endo microscopes, and lasers, or more unique dental materials like nanocomposites, dental implants, and bone regeneration materials, there is no end to this. All these things have helped dental practitioners in terms of their efficacy and predictable results which could be delivered to our patients.

Drawing from your vast experience as a business leader, what message would you give to aspiring women leaders and entrepreneurs?

To all aspiring women leaders and entrepreneurs, I will say that though our road is not smooth, the coming era is Women’s Era, and we all have a significant role to play in the development and upliftment of our society. So, all aspiring women leaders just keep going and achieving great heights because the future is ours.
