Get to know Harindu...
What I love about my job most is...
Building trust and relationships with everyone that comes in and helping them regain or find confidence in their smiles. I know what it's like to lack self esteem with teeth after an accident when I was younger. So I can empathise with the vulnerability of being in a dental chair. I feel really lucky to do something I have a passion for. To me it's about being non-judgmental, understanding what someone wants to achieve and creating a roadmap to get there together
My favourite type of dental treatment is...
Any restorative or rehabilitative treatment, as well as orthodontics. From 'simple' restorations to replacing teeth that are lost, a lot of planning is required if you want to deliver a high standard of treatment. I employ biomimetic principles to best mimic the form and function of a natural tooth, and it's the science behind that challenge that I nerd out on
If I wasn't in the dental world I would be...
A mechatronics engineer I think. Or a power ranger
My favourite things to do in my spare time are...
I love to cook for my nearest and dearest, it's my form of stress relief. If you've spent time in my chair you know that we talk far too much about food. But I also love spending time with my dog Moose, playing or watching basketball in any form and hiking to beautiful lookouts.
