Dentistry runs in her family-she is a 3rd generation dentist! She loves the idea of a career that could help people in such an important way. It is not just about straightening the teeth, it's about creating a beautiful and confident smile. She says "the satisfaction and confidence on my patients faces when the orthodontic treatment is completed is priceless." She loves to make them smile! Dr. Pawar received her dental degree from the University of Sydney School of Dentistry. She later was awarded her M.S.D. and her Certificate in Orthodontics from the University of the Pacific School of Dentistry.
