About the Expert...
Dr Sarika Shah is a dentist and Director at Platinum Dental Care, a multi-award-winning private dental practice in Canary Wharf, London. A certified mindset and leadership coach, she is the founder of Flourish as a Female in Dentistry, a coaching and education platform championing women across the dental profession.
Dr Shah has been nominated in Dentistry's Top 50 Clinicians, recognising the positive influence and impact she has brought to the profession. She is an international speaker and published author on self-leadership and emotional intelligence in dentistry, with articles and podcast features to her name, and has presented at the BDA Dental Conference.
Dr Shah leads the Menopause Mouth Matters campaign, a movement bringing long-overdue attention to the impact of perimenopause and menopause on oral health. Driven by a belief that no woman should be left in the dark about how hormonal change affects her mouth, she developed a chairside oral health screening toolkit to help clinicians spot and address menopause-related symptoms at the point of care. Her mission is simple: make sure no woman leaves a dental chair without knowing how menopause could be affecting her oral health.
