Dr. Dave’s passion for dentistry started at a young age while growing up in Sugar Land, TX! Throughout his four years at Austin High School, Dr. Dave frequently visited his dentist for braces adjustments, and even had a root canal and crown procedure on one of his decayed teeth. All of those visits ultimately encouraged Dr. Dave to realize what his true calling was. He wanted to be a dentist who could service his community and be a strong role model for others. Dr. Dave went on to complete his bachelor’s of science degree at Texas A&M University and graduated cum laude. He then obtained his doctorate of dental medicine from University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Dave furthered his education in Brooklyn, New York by completing a one-year general practice residency where he focused on implant dentistry.
Through his education and experiences, Dr. Dave aims to provide personalized patient care while striving for clinical excellence. He believes in transparency, strong communication, and building a trustworthy relationship with all his patients. Dr. Dave is excited to provide quality and comforting care to his patients using his knowledge, experience, passion, and enthusiasm for dentistry!
Dr. Dave is a proud member of the Academy of General Dentistry, International Congress of Oral Implantologists, Academy of Osseointegration. He recently received his fellowship from ICOI and Academy of General Dentistry.
When not saving lives one tooth at a time, Dr. Dave is either spending time with his wife, catching a Houston sporting event or playing basketball and tennis with his buddies. He recently developed an interest in baking desserts and making pizzas from scratch!
“I feel honored that my patients place their trust in me, and I take my responsibility and their health seriously. I try to put myself in the shoes of the patient and believe in the importance of education to help them make the best choices for their oral health.”
Dr. Mili Shah’s passion for dentistry also began at an early age! As the younger sister, she often followed her sister around and found herself at her dental appointments. It was these visits that sparked her interest in dentistry, and she began shadowing a dentist in high school. She followed her childhood dream and earned her doctorate degree from Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in Boston, MA.
As a member of American Academy of General Dentistry, Texas Academy of General Dentistry and Spear Study Club, Dr. Shah is continually learning more about general dentistry, technology and facial esthetics. Since the field constantly evolves, Dr. Shah finds it important to stay on top of the latest developments through continuing education. Patient comfort and satisfaction are her top priorities.
In her free time, Dr. Shah enjoys spending time with her husband Dr. Dave, checking out the latest restaurants, cooking, traveling and DIY projects.
