Aug 01, 2025
 

In the latest episode of the Women in Digital Dentistry podcast, we sit down with Dr. Parul Makkar—a leader, speaker, and grief coach—who turned unimaginable personal loss into a mission that is saving lives and healing hearts.

After losing her brother (a fellow dentist) to oral cancer, Dr. Makkar committed herself to raising awareness about early screening, better education, and stronger support in dentistry.

🎧 Tune in to hear:

  • Her journey of loss, love, and purpose

  • Why most dental teams aren't doing enough with oral cancer screening

  • Her new course that empowers every team member

  • Tools for navigating grief in professional settings

  • The importance of time, boundaries, and self-care in our field

If you work in dentistry—this is required listening.
Listen, share it with your team, and join the movement toward awareness and compassion in practice.
