Dr Rosh Amrein
Host
Hi I am Dr Rosh. Dentist, Poet and mother of two. I came to Australia as a teenager in the 90s and been able to enjoy the freedom and the opportunities that this amazing country has gifted me. This is my way of saying thank you to Australia.
As a dentist, my expertise are limited to oral health but I have observed countless times how general health and oral health interconnect. We are one whole organism after all. As a dentist I am keenly interested in my patients' general health because if their bodies are not healthy, their mouths will not be.
I believe we have an obligation to the future generation. Our knowledge is our power and motivation. A small tweak in the way we do things now may change the health outcomes of our young for the rest of their lives. I am keen to learn and hope you are too.
