I’m delighted to be taking part in a unique art exhibition, The Smile Within, celebrating mental health and wellbeing in dentistry.
The exhibition will take place at the British Dental Conference & Dentistry Show at the NEC Birmingham on 15–16 May during Mental Health Awareness Week.
Artwork has been created by talented artists interpreting themes of mindfulness, mental wellbeing, and emotional resilience.

🎨 Where Art, Dentistry and Wellbeing Flow Together ✨
In our latest *The Smile Within* feature, we meet Nitam Narkhede, an aesthetic dentist, practice founder, painter, and designer whose creativity shapes both her art and her approach to dentistry.
From painting as a form of meditation to designing a calming, spa-like dental practice, balance, beauty, and wellbeing are at the heart of everything she does.
Her featured oil paintings — *Aplomb*, *Nurturing Smile*, and *Elysium* explore the connection between art, empathy, and clinical care.
👉 Read Nitam’s story and discover how her artwork is helping raise funds for both Bridge2Aid during Mental Health Awareness Week.
