Dr. Rishita Jaju
Do what you love, and love what you doA twinkle in children’s eyes when they are able to have a pleasant and comfortable dental checkup (they are often surprised) …the sense of accomplishment and confidence evident on their face as they give me a hug or a high five at the end of their dental visit is priceless! This is possible only by use of gentle behavior guidance. I get to work with the most tender of the patients, many of whom really need specialized help. No matter what the dental needs of a child are, they can be accomplished with kindness, patience and dedication. Before the end of every appointment, I like to ensure that I have answered any questions that children or parents may have. Quality dental care coupled with prevention and effective patient education is the recipe for a lifetime of happy, healthy and beautiful smiles.
