About Me
As a dentist with 4 years of clinical experience, I have developed a keen interest in the intersection of healthcare and technology, particularly in the field of software development. With my passion for both dentistry and software, I am excited to explore new ways of improving patient care through innovative technological solutions. I am currently pursuing master’s in Bioinformatics, where I am gaining expertise in the intersection of biology and software. In addition to my work as a dentist, I have written several blogs on various dental problems and software. I am excited to continue exploring the field of Bioinformatics and applying my knowledge to advance healthcare through technology.
Software Development
As a dentist-turned-software developer, I bring a unique perspective to the field of healthcare technology. With experience in both clinical dentistry and software development, I am uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between these two fields. With a strong background in both clinical dentistry and programming, I am passionate about creating innovative software solutions that improve patient care and enhance the practice of dentistry. My expertise in languages such as Python, Java, and R, coupled with my studies in bioinformatics, has equipped me with the skills necessary to build robust and effective software systems. I am excited to continue exploring the limitless potential of technology in the healthcare industry.
Computational Biology (Bioinformatics)
In today’s era of big data and advanced technologies, computational methods have become increasingly essential to the field of biology. As a dentist with a passion for software development, I recognized the importance of these methods early on in my career. Pursuing an MS in Bioinformatics has allowed me to develop a deeper understanding of the power of computation in biological research. With a strong background in programming languages such as Python, Java, and R, I have developed a skill set that allows me to tackle complex biological problems with confidence. I am particularly interested in leveraging my expertise to contribute to the development of new therapies and technologies that improve patient outcomes. Whether it’s developing computational models to predict drug efficacy or analyzing genomic data to uncover new biomarkers, I am excited to continue exploring the possibilities of computational biology and make a meaningful impact in the field.

Oral Cancer
Oral cancer appears as overgrowth or sore in the mouth that does not heal and reoccur very frequently. About 50,000 people in the U.S. get oral cancer each year, 70% of them are mostly men. Oral cancer includes cancers of the lips, tongue, cheeks, floor of the mouth, hard and soft palate, sinuses, and pharynx, etc. It can be life-threatening if not diagnosed and treated at the early stages.

Dental Composites
Dental composite resins also called as resin based composites are a type of dental cements made of synthetic resins. Synthetic resins evolved as restorative materials since they were insoluble, tooth-like appearance, insensitive to dehydration, easy to manipulate and inexpensive, and all these properties increased the use of dental composites in various dental procedures.

Dental Amalgam
Dental amalgam is a mixture of metals consisting of liquid mercury and a powdered alloy composed of silver, tin, and copper. Approximately half of dental amalgam is elemental mercury by weight. The chemical properties of elemental mercury allow it to react with and bind together the silver, copper, and tin alloy particles to form an amalgam.

Suturing Techniques
Sutures are used by your dentist to close wounds on the skin or other tissues. When the dentist sutures a wound, they’ll use a needle attached to a length of thread to stitch the wound. There are a variety of available materials that can be used for suturing which are discussed below. Your dentist will choose a material that’s appropriate for the wound or procedure depending on the type of wound.
