The grand finale of Dental Talks – Season 5 brings together two powerful voices in modern dentistry — Dr. Glambuddyand Dr. Apoorva Mittal — for an honest, practical and thought-provoking conversation beyond textbooks and conferences.
In this episode, we openly discuss how dentistry in India has traditionally been perceived as a male-dominated profession, and how the new generation of women dentists are reshaping clinical leadership, patient communication, and practice ownership.
The conversation moves from social realities to real chairside dentistry — covering daily clinical practice, decision-making with patients, handling expectations, and the realities young dentists face after BDS/MDS when theory meets the OPD.
We also dive into a very important but often ignored pediatric topic — Nursing Bottle Caries — why it is rising, how parents unknowingly cause it, early signs every dentist should identify, and simple awareness steps that can prevent lifelong dental damage in children.
This finale is not just an interview — it’s a practical learning session, a motivational story, and a reflection of how dentistry is evolving in 2026.
If you are a dental student, intern, clinic owner, or practicing dentist, this episode will feel relatable, educational and real.
