Experience & Expertise

Dr. Rishita is a well-known expert provider skilled in providing specialized care in Pediatric Laser Dentistry since 2007.

She has helped improve the quality of life of her patients including infants as young as 2 days old, who are struggling with challenges of nursing due to Lip or Tongue-Tie issues.

In the Community

Her passion for community service led her to become a volunteer team dentist for Operation Smile Missions to Vietnam and India and help with care for children born with cleft lip and palate.
