It is ironic that after my last piece which was an unfiltered rant about dentistry, I chose to write about the happier part of my profession. Being a dentist, I have always met different people daily, there is never a dull day. Some patients make us want to secretly pull our own hair, some make …

Listen up!
Adulting is a tough game. Actually, life in general is. I think it is a given that everyone of us at one point or the other experience bouts of existential crisis.

Well, I genuinely don’t know how many of you would relate to this particular one but here goes! So, I have actually been told that I have too many ‘best friends’. The oldest group of friends I’ve had since school (the oldest ‘best friends’, if you will) brought up this topic. It all started when …
