About
Evidence-based orthodontics, delivered with care
I'm an MDS Orthodontist and Dentofacial Orthopedician. I trained in Orthodontics at the Indira Gandhi Institute of Dental Sciences, Pondicherry, after 2.5 years in general dental practice.
My work covers orthodontic diagnosis, treatment planning, fixed braces, clear aligners, growth modification for children, and temporary anchorage devices (TADs). I'm an MSA-certified Aligner Specialist, I use both conventional and digital orthodontics, and I publish research on evidence-based orthodontic practice.
