I'm Now Your Big Brother Dental Mentor!

When I started in dentistry, I often wished someone would sit me down, hand me a coffee, and say, “Here’s what dental school didn’t tell you.” 

That’s exactly what this mentorship program is all about: practical guidance, case chats, and a safe space to ask the questions you might not want to ask in front other dentists. 

What is this Big Brother Dental Mentorship Chat?

Think of it this way: it’s not a course, not a program, and definitely not me assigning you homework. It’s a 30-minute, one-on-one Google Meet chat between you and me.

You show up with whatever’s on your mind, maybe it’s a tricky clinical case, maybe it’s the chaos of running your practice, or maybe it’s just that you’re wondering if you should hire (or fire!) that new assistant. It could be pure dental, personal, or management-related. No topic is too small (or too big) to throw on the table.

I bring along my 27 years of navigating dentistry, the good, the bad, and the root canals, and we dig in together. The goal? To walk away with clarity, possible solutions, and maybe even a laugh or two.

So don’t think of this as a “mentorship program.” Think of it as your Big Brother in Dentistry, sitting down with you to figure things out, clinical, business, or just the messy bits in between.

Meet Your Big Brother Mentor - Dr. Prashanth

 I’ve been in dentistry for over 27 years, which means I’ve seen everything from nervous toddlers to root canals that deserve their own Netflix series.

Over time, I’ve realised that teaching and mentoring are just as rewarding as treating patients.

 

I enjoy answering questions, adding a little humor, and helping younger dentists find their footing in this ever-changing profession..

What You Can Learn Through This Mentorship Chat?

Dentistry isn’t just about drilling and filling; it’s about making the right calls, earning trust, and running a practice without losing sleep. 

Here’s what we’ll dive into together:

  • Clinical case discussions
    I’ll look at real cases, break them down step by step, and tackle those tricky “what would you do here?” moments.
  • Patient communication approaches
    Learn how to explain treatments in simple English (without confusing your patients).
  • Treatment planning insights
    Build confidence in choosing the best path forward, balancing what’s clinically right and practically doable.
  • Ethical considerations in practice
    Navigating the grey areas of dentistry, where the right choice isn’t always obvious.
  • Practice management guidance
    From scheduling worries to team dynamics, I’ll share what actually works in day-to-day practice.
  • Your unique dentistry-related issues
    Be it bad management, your contract, a tricky case, anything and everything remotely dental gets a space on our call.

Is This Mentorship for You? (Spoiler: Probably Yes)

This Big Brother Dental Mentorship isn’t just for the lost or confused; it’s for anyone who wants to grow with fewer bumps along the way.
Here’s who have found it helpful so far

  • Dental students
    You know the theory, but patients don’t read the same textbooks. Mentorship helps connect the dots between lecture halls and real mouths.

 

  • Recent graduates
    That jump from student to dentist can feel like stepping onto a tightrope. I’ll help you steady your footing with practical, no-nonsense guidance.

 

  • Early-career dentists
    If you’re tired of second-guessing your treatment plans or Googling late at night, this is your chance to build clarity and confidence.

 

  • Practicing professionals
    Even seasoned dentists hit plateaus. Whether it’s refining a skill, navigating tricky cases, or swapping strategies, my mentorship will give you a fresh lens.

 

  • Basically
    If you’ve ever thought, “I wish I could ask someone about this case without feeling silly,” this chat is for you.

How This Mentorship Actually Works?

Here’s the simple step-by-step of how I’ll work with you.

Booking a Session – Getting Started

When you click on the booking page, you get to my calendar booking page. Just select a slot that suits you and we will be booked!

Getting on the call

On the day of our scheduled call, you join the link sent by me to your email (atleast 2 minutes before the call pls?). We get to know each other and start the conversation!

Hands-On/Case-Based Guidance

If it's a case based discussion I would love for you to come ready for the case pictures, xrays, scans anything that can make our conversation smooth! If anything, except that please ensure you have all the details handy so we can slice and dice your issue well, and get you a solution!

Ongoing Support – Regular check-ins and growth tracking

I won’t vanish after one session. I’ll check in, we can have review progress calls, and you keep refining your skills, like a gym buddy, but for dentistry.

Dentistry Isn’t Just Teeth (Let’s Talk Business Too)

Running a practice means juggling more than drills and fillings. 

There’s scheduling, money talk, and yes, even managing the humans you work with. 

My Big Brother chat goes beyond clinical skills to cover the part nobody warned us about in dental school: keeping the whole ship sailing smoothly.

  • Fundamentals of dental practice management
    The nuts and bolts of running a clinic without turning into a full-time admin.

 

  • Patient communication in a business setting
    How to explain fees, timelines, and procedures without feeling like a pushy salesperson.

 

  • Financial and operational insights
    From costs to cash flow, we’ll talk about the numbers (don’t worry, I’ll keep the math painless).

 

  • Building and leading a dental team
    Tips on creating a team that works together… and maybe even laughs together.

Why Bother Getting On This Chat?

This Mentorship isn’t about me giving you fancy speeches; it’s about you walking away with tools that make everyday dentistry easier (and a little less stressful). 

Here’s what you’ll gain:

Improved confidence in treatment planning

No more staring at X-rays like they’re abstract art. You’ll know what steps to take and why.

Better understanding of case assessment

Spot the important details early, so you can save yourself (and your patient) a lot of headaches.

Enhanced practical knowledge of dental procedures

Real-world insights that don’t always show up in textbooks or CPD courses.

Professional growth through guided feedback

Feedback that’s honest, useful, and never wrapped in confusing jargon. (I promise not to make you feel like you’re back in an exam.)

Expert’s Words

Personal note from Dr. Prashanth

Dentistry can be equal parts art, science, and “why does this not look like the YouTube demo?” I’ve been there. I know what it’s like to sit across from a patient, second-guessing every decision while trying to look 100% confident on the outside.

That’s why I started this mentorship program, not to add another line to your CV, but to make your professional life simpler, sharper, and (dare I say?) more fun.

If you’re looking for textbook-style lectures, you won’t find them here. 

What you will find are honest conversations, practical guidance, and a mentor who’ll remind you that even tough cases can have light moments (sometimes we just need to laugh through the stress!).

So if you’re ready to learn, grow, and enjoy the ride, let’s get started.

FAQS

FAQs (Or as I like to call them: Questions You Were Already Thinking)

Find quick answers to common questions about my dental services, procedures, and patient care in the FAQ section.

We always take care of your smile

24/7 Emergency

Mostly one-to-one. Think of it as a personalized GPS for your career, not a crowded bus ride where you miss your stop.

That depends on your goals. Some dentists need a quick booster shot of confidence, while others want a full treatment plan. We’ll figure out what works best for you.

Both are possible! Online for convenience, in person if you prefer face-to-face wisdom (and maybe a cup of coffee).

Absolutely. Bring your tricky cases, your “what-would-you-do” puzzles, and even your dental nightmares. I’ll tackle them together; no judgment, just solutions.

Yes, mentorship isn’t free, but neither is stress. Consider it as an investment that saves you years of trial, error, and extra grey hairs.

Of course! Dentistry speaks a universal language (well, teeth do). Whether you’re in Hyderabad or Helsinki, you’re welcome.
