Dr Shaista is a British dentist, with over twenty years of experience, currently based in Dubai. Amazing opportunities, family life and the weather are some of the reasons that were the deciding factors in relocating from her hometown of Ealing, London to Dubai, UAE.

During her career as a dentist, Dr Shaista has particularly enjoyed seeing how her patients, with the support of good dental care, have flourished through the encouragement of positive behaviour and improved their oral health. A passionate lifelong learner, she has continued her professional education and training in various disciplines including aesthetic dentistry and endodontics.

As well as doing daily dental practice, Dr Shaista also helps in teaching on post-graduate courses to Dentists in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, with CAPP-Tipton Training.

As well as having a love for the sciences, she has pursued other interests and completed a BA in Humanities (Classical Studies) as well as completing part 1 of the Graduate Diploma in Law. She would eventually like to read a Master’s in Classical Civilization.
