Dr. Daggula earned her Doctor of Dental Surgery in 2010 from NYU College of Dentistry. Prior to that she attended the College of Dental Sciences in India where she earned her Bachelor of Dental Surgery in 2003. After her formal training, Dr. Daggula distinguished herself in the Dallas area working as an Associate Dentist for over a decade.
In 2020, Dr. Daggula acquired her current practice from Dr. Dan Bush, a well-known dentist in the Dallas area, who had practiced for 42 years. Dr. Bush was impressed by her expertise in the dental field and her kind chair side manner. Dr. Bush knew that Dr. Daggulas integrity and desire to put patients first would continue his legacy and help the practice continue to grow after his retirement.
Dr. Daggula enjoys working with children but is not limited to that population alone. Her patients range in ages from 1 year to a ripe and healthy 101 year old and she delights in serving everyone who seeks her care.
While she is not attending to the oral needs of her patients, Dr. Daggula is busy spending time with her husband and 2 young and active boys. Dr. Daggula also enjoys cooking and nurtures her geeky predilection of Vedic Math and Calligraphy.
Marion grew up in Texas and joined the practice in 2015. She began her career in dentistry in 1980 and enjoys working closely with patients to help schedule all of your visits with us and will go the extra distance to help you with insurance, scheduling or whatever the task may be. She makes a sometimes uncomfortable task of discussing finances comfortable, and is responsible for billing, filing insurance and pre-treatment estimates. Marion feels blessed to be working with such a caring group and all she has learned from the many years of combined experience afforded her.
Marion enjoys riding with the Christian Motorcyclist Association (CMA) and became a member in 2015. She enjoys the great adventures and serving opportunities it offers. (yes, she rides her own). She also enjoys baking, just ask the staff about her sour cream coffee cake, a signature dessert known by many.
Dear Valued Patients and Friends, Throughout these last 42 years. I have had the great privilege of providing quality, personal touch dentistry for you and your family. Dentistry has been a GREAT enjoyment in my life. but the physical aspects of the profession have taken their toll on my ability to continue without pain. So it is, with mixed emotions, that I am announcing my retirement from my office. Though Im retiring from dentistry, I still want to ensure you receive the best possible care. After vetting several highly qualified dentists hoping to assume my practice, Im proud to announce the selection of Dr. Padma Daggula as my successor.

Dr. Daggula has nearly ten years of experience working as an Associate dentist in the DFW area. Im confident her experience, personality, ethics, and desire to put patients first will ensure the continuation of my practice philosophy.
Dr. Daggula and her husband currently reside in Irving with their two children. I will be working with Dr. Daggula over the next few weeks to ensure a smooth transition and to complete current cases. Youll be happy to know that most of our staff will remain as valuable assets to the practice. They, along with Dr. Daggula, are excited to continue providing you with excellent dental care with our famous personal touch.
