Dr. Ritika Raj Parikh and Dr. Niraalee Bhavya Shah, co-founders of Artista Advanced Dentistry with a vision to reimagine dental care as a painless, precise, and transformative experience, were recently honoured for Excellence in Dentistry at Times Healthcare Leaders Awards 2025, organized by the Times of India group. They were honoured for their commitment to precision and patient-first care.

Dr Ritika, a Biomimetic Dentist and Certified Implantologist (AAID), is the daughter of Shaila and Rashmi Shah, daughter-in-law of Leena and Hiten Parikh and wife of Raj Parikh.

A graduate with honours from Nair Hospital Dental College, Mumbai, she subsequently trained in smile design and dental aesthetics under Dr. Edward McLaren at the UCLA School of Dentistry, was certified in Biomimetic Dentistry by SLA Academy, USA, and Oral Implantology by American Academy of Implant Dentistry.

She follows a conservative, tooth-preservation philosophy focussed on saving and preserving natural teeth: one tooth at a time. Her keen eye for design, passion for esthetics, and commitment to clinical excellence have helped shape a new standard in cosmetic and restorative dentistry.

Along with Dr. Niraalee Shah she co-founded Artista Advanced Dentistry with a vision to reimagine dental care as a painless, precise, and transformative experience. It has quickly won recognition as a centre of dental excellence, Artista blends global expertise with cutting-edge technology in a boutique, stress-free environment that leaves patients feeling confident and comfortable. Together, the two doctors, with over 15 years of combined clinical experience, have created one of the most technologically advanced dental centres.
