About Dr. Asha
Philosophy of Practice
For Dr Asha, the important role of a healthcare professional is to counsel and guide patients to achieve and maintain health. Treatment of a disease is just temporary relief if the patient is not enabled to keep himself healthy.
Dr. Asha graduated from the National University of Singapore and has been continually updating her skills and knowledge in dentistry.
She holds a Diploma in General Dental Practice from the Royal College of Surgeons, UK; and received the Graduate Diploma in Dental Implantology (Singapore).
She is one of the early adopters in Singapore of the CAD-CAM technology of Invisalign, receiving her certification in 2006.
She practises the maxim of “life-long learning” and enjoys refining her skills.
As a general dental surgeon, she provides a variety of services – from fixing broken teeth to restoring health to diseased gums; from straightening teeth for kids and adults, to replacing lost teeth.
With the range of services she provides, Dr Asha likes to describe herself as a “Smile Maker”.
When asked what she found satisfying about her work as a dental surgeon, Dr Asha replied, “The smiles my patients give me.”
Dr Asha’s strong belief in health education led her to be President of the Singapore Dental Health Foundation – an organisation dedicated to public education and health promotion. She led this organization for 8 years.
She continues to contribute to the dental profession in Singapore. She is an active member of the Aesthetic Dentistry Society of Singapore.
Indeed, her many contributions earned her a place in the Singapore Dental Association’s Roll of Honour.
An experienced public speaker, Dr Asha is known for her entertaining and authoritative style. She has delivered health education talks to community and corporate organisations.
She willingly expends her energy and time on dental health education as she believes in the saying,
“Give a man a fish and you have fed him for the day.
Teach a man to fish and you have fed him for a lifetime”
Hence, patient education is an integral part of her practice.
One of her favourite quotations is attributed to the American inventor, Thomas Edison:
“The doctor of the future will give no medicine but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease.”
