Dr. Mahajan has two dental degrees, having earned her Bachelor of Dental Surgery in Mangalore, India, prior to coming to the United States. Passionate about continuing her dental career, she attended Tufts University in Boston, earning her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree in 2004. Since then, her enthusiasm for learning has never waned, as you’ll find Dr. Mahajan often at continuing education courses, most recently obtaining certifications in Lumineers, which are a special type of veneer, and Implant Dentistry.

Despite her busy schedule, Dr. Mahajan makes time for her family. She loves cooking with them and volunteering at her children’s school. But she can never stay away from dentistry for too long. She often volunteers at the Northern Virginia Dental Society clinic, providing dental care to those who need it most.

Dr. Mahajan is excited to share her knowledge and skills to help patients in the Fairfax, Virginia, area and treat their dental care needs.
