Principal Dentist
Dr Nikita
Dr. Nikita understands that visiting the dentist can be a daunting experience—after all, she once feared it herself! This personal experience inspired her to create a dental environment that is welcoming, judgment-free, and most importantly, comfortable for every patient. Her approach is simple: No fear. No pain. No judgments. Just quality dentistry in a relaxed atmosphere.
Her journey in dentistry began in India, where she earned her Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) from Gujarat University in 2007. In 2009, she moved to New Zealand, where she gained extensive experience in general and advanced dentistry while owning and managing multiple successful dental practices. After over a decade of professional growth, She relocated to Brisbane in 2022, making it her home for the future and bringing her passion for high-quality, patient-focused care to the community. 😊
Dr. Nikita has advanced training in all aspects of dentistry, including restorative and cosmetic treatments, orthodontics, oral surgery, and implant therapy.
She also specializes in Sleep Dentistry, providing gentle care under sedation or general anesthesia for anxious patients.
Outside of work, Dr. Nikita is a devoted wife and a loving mother to two energetic boys. She enjoys cooking, shopping and listening to great music.
