I love people. I’m a humanitarian at heart and I like to be of service. I find this intimate platform to get to know people, share the experiences, and grow together over these last 20 years. My team and myself, we are dedicated to your dental care, and for those who don’t look forward to the dental visits, you know, for fear of, like, injections or pain, we strive to make it as painless as possible.
We offer sedation options. It could be as simple as, you know, taking a couple tablets to help you relax, like sleep well the night before and come well rested, minimize anxiety. If there are longer, more complex appointments, then we have moderate total conscious sedation so that everybody comes in and gets the dental care they need. Our goal is to help you keep your teeth and gums healthy for your lifetime. If we can help those who are on the fence, like, take that next step, we feel good about it.
Dr. Sandhya Hegde
Dr. Sandhya Hegde became a dentist so she could make a difference in her patients’ health and well-being. She understands the important role that oral health plays in a person’s overall health, and she wants to help each patient enjoy the best health possible.
Dr. Hegde received her dental degree from Loma Linda University in 2000 and started practicing dentistry shortly thereafter, coming to our practice in 2005. She is compassionate, empathetic and caring toward her patients and recognizes their unique, individual needs. She doesn’t believe in a “one-size-fits-all” approach to dental care. She is a perfectionist, and her patients know that she doesn’t settle for subpar outcomes and results, just as she wouldn’t for her own children and family.
Seeing the end result and witnessing the impact on a patient’s life is the best part of Dr. Hegde’s job. She has had patients who would never smile or couldn’t eat a steak or who were afraid of going to the dentist. She has been able to help them overcome these hurdles and get the treatment they need.
Dr. Hegde has achieved the following professional accomplishments:
- Placed over 1.000 implants with a success rate of 99.5 percent
- Earned a Fellowship in the Academy of General Dentistry within the first three years of being in practice
- Completed extensive work on full-mouth rehabilitation cases with repeat patient referrals
- Guest speaker for Align Technology, for the Americas region as well as APAC region
Away from the office, Dr. Hegde loves spending time with her pets, horse riding, enjoying the outdoors, and traveling to new places.
