Piasha Pillay

I have been practicing for 15 years and have been working in my current group practice for 10 years. My passion for dentistry lies in truly helping my patients improve their oral health and overall well-being and building lasting and wholesome relationships with them and their families, changing the stigma attached to going to the dentist. I have a special interest in children, which has lead me to have a keen interest in orthodontic treatment and aesthetic dentistry.

Within the dental team, i am reliable, motivated to continue to improve myself and encourage those around me to do the same. I'm an objective but empathetic listener and while I am an introvert, I appreciate the sense of community a group practice comes with and love connecting with people who hold the same values as i do. I believe a strong team is what makes a practice successful.

Outside of dentistry, I love spending time with family, friends and my dogs, in the kitchen, doing pilates and travelling.
