Viren Puri graduated from the prestigious GDC in Mumbai in the year 2000. he underwent three years of rigorous training for his postgraduate program under India's premiere academician in orthodontics, Dr SadashivaShetty, his guru. It was here that he was honoured to be awarded the 'Best student for the year' from the institution. Thereafter, he worked extremely hard for my exams at the Royal College of Surgeons, UK. his hard work paid off when he passed the exams with flying colours and was awarded the M. Orth degree from this esteemed university. he later received a certification in Lingual Orthodontics by Dr Rafi Romano of Israel.his first love (other than football) has always been clinical orthodontics. Nothing excites me more than working and interacting with patients. All individuals are different with diverse needs. It's always a pleasure getting that right smile for each and every one of them. It just makes his day when a patient has a satisfied smile :)he enjoy lecturing and do so when invited to any part of the globe. (Don't worry, he don't lecture patients. it's only for orthodontists) he have also had the privilege of conducting and organizing various courses in his specialty, ranging from invisible braces to jaw surgeries. As an active member of the Indian Orthodontic Society, he have been the editor of the widely acclaimed publications 'TORQ' and 'ORACLE'. he was also on the editorial panel of the IOS Times newsletter. he have been a post graduate teacher and instructor.As for football, he love the yellow jerseyed samba boys. Other than that, he enjoy movies, with AK (Aamir Khan) being his fav! Serious reading is the only type that he do, with Old Path White Clouds being his most preferred book. The ideal way that he like to start my day is with an early morning walk or meditation. Recreation for his is being in the lap of nature. More when we meet. Ciao.
