At Tufts, Dr. Budhani graduated near the top of her class and was inducted into the prestigious Omicron Kappa Upsilon Honor Society.

While specializing, Dr. Budhani practiced part-time as a general dentist and completed her post-graduate program in Endodontics from Boston University School of Dental Medicine in 2008.
After she finished her residency, Dr. Budhani and her husband decided to move to the Dallas area, settle down, and start a family. They have lived in Irving since 2008 and have two beautiful children. Dr. Budhani loves the warm weather, the friendly people, and the great, unique culture that North Texas has to offer.
When not performing root canals on patients, Dr. Budhani spends most of her leisure time with her family, traveling, listening to Bollywood music and enjoys watching and rooting for the Texas Longhorns (she has become a big college football fan over the last few years).
Dr. Budhani has a firm belief in providing comprehensive, thorough Endodontic care to all of her patients. It is for this reason, that she keeps up-to-date with the latest journals from the American Association of Endodontics and utilizes the newest techniques in the field. She is also a Diplomate of the American Board of Endodontics which is the highest level of education in endodontics.
