From handpieces to hashtags, Dr. Avi Patel is proving that dentistry isn’t just about clinical skills—it’s about vision, creativity, and a willingness to shake things up.

Now known as the Clear Aligner Advisor, he’s built a thriving business teaching general dentists how to confidently integrate aligners into their practices—while using social media to grow, connect, and inspire.
