“A doctor who is great with handling babies. We visited Dr Ankita as our 4 week old daughter had a tongue tie that had to be snipped. Her analysis of the condition and what needed to be done was thorough. Dr Ankita explained the pros & cons of the procedure in detail and gave us material to read through and decide without pressure or in a hurry She was extremely gentle with the baby during the procedure and after during our visits for the exercises to help heal the procedure. Would definitely recommend her for this procedure.”

“I am really happy after my tongue tie surgery thanks to Dr Zaghi and Dr Ankita Shah.
I had stammering and neck tension since many years. I have done speech therapy and tongue tie release before also but it didn’t completely help me. When I realised my tongue tie was not released properly, I contacted Dr. Zaghi and he asked me to fly from Bangladesh to Dr. Ankita who was trained by him.
I saw an immediate change in my speech and neck tension after the surgery was done. I’m yet to attend my speech therapy sessions and I’m so happy with the change I have received.”

“I suffer from severe Orofacial Pain, neck & back pain, migraines and mouth breathing because of a TMJ disorder caused by a tongue tie. I met with over 23 leading ENT, Pulmonary, Neuro, Ortho and Dental experts in Bombay, Los Angeles and Sweden. ENT & Sleep Expert Dr Zaghi, from the Breathe Institute in Los Angeles recommended I receive treatment from Dr Ankita. The attention and care I received from Dentician was unparalleled, globally. They took the patience to explain everything to my family. I just had my tongue tie surgery and it changed my life (No exaggeration). The myofunctional therapy helped my TMJ flare ups, migraines and breathing and the tongue tie surgery immediately improved my poor posture, foot pronation and my neck and back pain. I feel better than ever and am grateful to Dr Ankita and her incredible team of myofunctional therapists, physio therapists and TMJ doctors!”

“Highly recommend Dr. Shah for both children and adults seeking better dental plus airway health. She has got great foreign training and lovely people skills so you can rest assured she will help you get better soon. I had a tongue-tie and lip-tie release surgery with her and it was nothing short of life-changing, my whole body’s proper posture and breathing is effortlessly better and smoother now! Pay a visit to her if you have any dental or breathing issues, she’s really knowledgeable and capable, plus smart enough to bring in other doctors like physios to cover any other connected issues you might be having. Dentists like her are rare in India right now, that’s why an online consultation and a brief trip to Mumbai can be really worth it, whether you’re a Delhi resident like me or from somewhere else.”

Juhee Bhandarkar

“I went to doctor Ankita late last year for myofunctional therapy and tongue tie release! And my life has changed. She helped me understand my aches and pains, work around them with structured sessions and exercises and post surgery helped me recover fast. She is one of those doctors who is patient, very knowledgeable and stays with you through the journey. The tongue tie release has changed my life. As a singer, I have seen lots of improvements and overall my breathing and comfort in everyday life has gone up significantly! I would highly recommend Dr Ankita to everyone who is looking for help in this direction.”

Dr Ankita is a patient, kind and extremely fun-loving doctor. She’s easy to talk to, and genuinely takes the time to understand your concern. No matter your reason to visit – be it posture, sleep issues, jaw/bite concerns, or tongue tie, she makes use of latest technology to assess, design and personalise treatment plans. Her ideology of strengthening muscles to improve pain – with myofunctional therapy, and full-body conditioning is helpful and easy to follow. Moreover, she adopts a holistic perspective towards treating such concerns – and always strives to be honest and transparent about treatment outcomes – which is much appreciated!”

for me Braces and Ortho has become integral part of my life, After 10 years of ortho treatment; i wasnt satisfied with results and found my jaw dislocating again so I got connected to Dr Ankita in April 22 and actual journey of healing started.. I was going through with lots of joint pain sleep related issue continues cough n cold..due to which i couldnt concentrate on my work and orher things.. Dr Ankita has started with Mayo functional excercises then tongue tie and after that orthotic..All this while i started feeling much better than i was..
I was constantly asking Dr Ankita.. This time atleast i should feel better? (As earlier experience of ortho treatment wasnt good) & She patiently answers Yes..You will absolutely Fine..
Thanks You for all the support and Help to get out of this

I came across Dr Ankita Shah’s work when I was researching on airway dentistry. Turns out she is the only doctor in India that does practices this. I have been suffering from myriad of health problems like allergic rhinitis, depression, anxiety, migraine, frequent ear infections, trj disorders to the point that they were severely interfering with my ability to go on with my day to day life. Little did I know that they were all interconnected. My first consultation with Dr lasted about 2 hours. She made me fill a detailed questionnaire and we had an in depth discussion about all the problems I was facing. She then patiently explained how most of my problems could be solved. I did not expect a dentist to send me for physiotherapy but she did! She looked at all my problems holistically. She recommended that I start weight training and also put me in touch with a physiotherapist that works specially with TMJ patients.
She wanted to first correct my posture because it turns out it directly impacts your airway significantly!
After a few months of physio and oral myofacial therapy where she should me how to manage my congestion (Which did wonders btw. Anyone with allergic rhinitis should try this if antihistamines aren’t working for you ) she gave me a splint to wear which really helped with my balance. I was then given a custom made orthotic (Which is transparent) to wear full time to correct my jaw positioning. I am glad to say that I have been sleeping so much better, my congestion has gone down significantly and due to this I am not tired during the day so my mood has been better. I rarely get migraines or ear infections any more and I have stopped grinding my teeth and all this without taking a single tablet! Ofc eating healthy and working out plays a huge role but she is the first doctor who actually educated me on how much of a difference my lifestyle would make on my condition. Dr Ankita is very patient and never dismisses any of your concerns. Her treatments, although popular in the west are not yet mainstream in India, which is a shame because so many of us are stuck in endless loops of doctors, medicines, surgeries which may only provide symptomatic relief for a while whereas she won’t just slap a band aid on your wound, she will really teach you a healthy, sustainable way to cure your problems.

“I suffered from debilitating shoulder pain and migraines due to an ascending TMJ disorder. Dentician, was a blessing because they provided me with affordable and long lasting pain relief through simple non invasive treatments like Myofunctional Therapy, Laser therapy and Fascial Massages. God Bless!”

Anchal Anand

I started my son’s Myofacial therapy with Ankita after researching a lot. My son had been a mouth breather and also had a tongue tie so it was crucial that I find someone who can help him with correct breathing and his posture. After I started the process I can see a that a tongue release has helped him with his posture, the Myofacial therapy is helping him keep his mouth closed and his overall breathing. I cannot be happier with the way the process is going and how it’s helping my son. Ankita has been amazing throughout in making us comfortable and I would definitely recommend her.

I had a good experience with Dr Ankita all through my journey of first few weeks of maternity , were i was facing with problems of nipple crack and pain since my baby had both tongue and lip tie. Tongue tie got released and the problems slowly start decreasing , now the baby is able to latch and suck properly, she was helping me with all the exercises that we should do and helped with lactation advices, and iam really thankful..
