Her clinical background spans general dentistry and orthodontics across multiple settings in India, including managing her own private practice, Balaji Dental, in Baroda, and serving as an Associate Professor at Manubhai Patel Dental College, where she taught orthodontics and functional appliances to undergraduate and postgraduate students while directing the faculty clinic. She has also worked as an orthodontist with the Apollo White Dental clinic chain in Hyderabad and as a consultant orthodontist across several private practices in Baroda.

Dr. Iyengar’s clinical focus includes functional corrections, extraction and non-extraction cases, mini implants, and impaction cases. Her orthodontic residency dissertation centers on her particular interest in impacted canines, and her research has been published in several peer-reviewed dental journals covering topics including airway space, TMJ disorders, and orthodontic treatment methods.

“Wow! I dreaded going to the dentist because my last episode left me feeling like I was just a body. Not only did this place take me in last minute on a Sat afternoon, but they treated me like I was a regular patient without rushing me through my mere painless tooth extraction. Everyone, including other patients were just exceptional. Kinda reminds me of that walking into Publix feeling. Lol”
