Meet Dr. Bindi Patel
At Young Dental Care, we want to change the way you feel about going to the dentist. I grew up with dentistry. My father is a dentist, as well as my uncle and many of my cousins. I come from a long lineage of people who are passionate about teeth and understand the importance they play in our overall health.
From a young age, I have been involved in all aspects of dentistry. As a high school student, I worked at my father’s dental practice as an assistant. In college, I shadowed my father in the office and realized that the dental profession combined my love of art and science. I realized that I could utilize my creative and compassionate strengths, as well as my studies in biology, to excel in this field.
After graduating with honors from the University Of Illinois Chicago School Of Dentistry, I used the knowledge I learned from my father and jumped right into further training in more unique areas of Dentistry. I became trained in treating cosmetic dentistry, neuromuscular dentistry, temporomandibular joint disorders, obstructive sleep apnea, and proper airway and breathing development, as well as facial growth and development in children. I learned so much more beyond the general dental treatments I had learned in school and realized how proper structure and function of the teeth, airway and jaw joints align with not only whole-body health but also beauty.
I have a special interest in treating children at an early age to develop proper breathing and soft tissue development to ensure they grow into adults with the best facial architecture, largest airway and breathing capacity, and straight teeth naturally. I think it is critical to look at the root cause of an issue and be proactive rather than treat the symptoms.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my college sweetheart Ameet, and chasing after our 3 small children Ryaan, Neil, and Megha.
I truly look forward to serving you, and I would love to welcome you into our Young Dental Care family!
