empathetic towards treating patients from different cultures. Being an avid traveler, she speaks
multiple languages and always makes her patients feel at ease. Most of her anxious patients with

During my stay in Cochin I learnt many things and went for consultation with Dr. Jaibin at various places. In the process of learning I also recorded multiple podcasts and today I bring to you what all I’ve learnt from the expert.
Please note that I was completely illiterate about implants when I went to him so the initial topics might be pretty basic for many. It was totally enlightening for me and I have to say I learnt way more than I had expected.
I’ll be presenting multiple episodes on various topics I discussed with him in the forthcoming weeks!
In this episode I learnt about –
I am sure this episode will help the students of implantology.
As usual Apart from the academic part I also recorded the rapid fire round with Sir, to know more about him apart from dentistry.

In my previous interview with Dr. Moez Khakiani we spoke about Material choices in Fixed prosthodontics. In this dental podcast we discuss about Occlusion in dentistry.

Occlusion in dentistry is a LANDMARK episode for me because this is the 1st episode recorded in my studio. You can appreciate the high voice quality which is far more superior than online interviews.The biggest difference is however interviewing face to face, it is so comfortable & there’s definitely a connect that was missing in online interviews at least in my opinion
