🎙️ In this episode of the Dental News Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Fahad Umer – Associate Professor at Aga Khan University Hospital, Founder of MeDenTec, and Founder of Meri Muskan.

Dr. Fahad takes us through his two-decade journey in dentistry, from his early days as a graduate of Karachi Medical and Dental College (KMDC) to his residency at AKU, where he chose operative dentistry over his initial interest in oral surgery. He shares insights into the rigorous training environment at Aga Khan University, the evolution of residency programs, and how mentorship and "soft skills" shaped his professional career.

As the first Pakistani to be trained as a microsurgeon at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Fahad discusses the transformative power of microsurgical endodontics. He explains the critical role of magnification and illumination in modern endodontic practice and why the transition to microscope-based dentistry is essential for clinical excellence.

The conversation also explores the intersection of dentistry and technology. Dr. Fahad details his research journey into Artificial Intelligence (AI), which led to the creation of MeDenTec, an AI-based tech company focused on automating radiograph analysis and oral disease detection. Furthermore, he introduces Meri Muskan, a pioneering teledentistry platform aimed at bridging the gap between patients and specialized dental care, particularly for those in remote areas like Thar Parkar.

This episode is a must-watch for dental students, practitioners, and tech enthusiasts interested in the future of digital health and the integration of AI in clinical dentistry in Pakistan.
