One of the things we always try to do with the podcast is to bring on dentists from all different walks of life because there are so many facets to dentistry. But, we don’t know what we don’t know. Most of us go through dental school only ever seeing the clinical side – practicing as a general dentist, specialising, academics & research. But this is really just the tip of the iceberg.
In this month’s feature we are joined by Dr Kinnar Shah. Dr Kinnar is a Dentapreneur – that is, the intersection between dentistry and entrepreneurialism. He is a business and success coach, where he helps dentists and practice owners realise their full potential or as he might say, “Create their destiny by design, not by default.”
In this episode, we talk about what success is and the journey towards it, how books have played a paramount importance in Dr Kinnar’s life and different non-clinical skills that are needed to go far in our careers. We talk about Dentapreneurs which is the group Dr Kinnar created to connect like-minded individuals in the industry, what it means, where it’s headed and how we can all be involved.
In Dr Kinnar’s words, “Be curious.”

Asher’s Gift – Humpty Dumpty Foundation Page
For those who have been listening for a while and have followed along with David’s journey, you may be aware of baby Asher’s passing this time last year. To mark his first birthday (today, in fact!) we’re dedicating our August Giving Project to continue supporting the Humpty Dumpty Foundation to support neonatal care services and supply equipment to underfunded hospitals.
To date, the community has raised over $29,000, and on behalf of Dental Head Start, we’ll be donating an additional $1000. If you’d like to contribute in any way, you can visit the donation page in our show notes.
Fly high baby Asher! You are helping make a world of difference.
