Her story of incepting Dental Lounge
She shares, “Dental caries is the most common oral disease that affects 60-90% of school children of age 6-12 years in India. Though its prevalence has declined in developed countries but India witnesses a difference in scale.” Owing to her undying aspirations of helping the kids of our nation to battle with this disease, she found her dose of motivation to incept “Dental Lounge”. She feels spreading awareness about Pediatric oral health as the most challenging task and is trying her bit in educating and spreading its awareness through all means.

Dr. Rishika Habib is deeply saddened by the fact that parents tend to neglect the oral health of children to such an extent that even children aged 2-3 years also suffer the pain and infections. Immensely sensitive towards dealing with kids and their needs, she empathizes and creates a bond with her young patients to treat their anxiety & fear for their happy experience.
