Dr. Piya Gandhi has been practicing dentistry since 2009 and completed her pediatric specialty training at the University of Texas in Houston. Her practice is inspired by her role as a mother to her two daughters, Cyrah and Ayana. Dr. Gandhi emphasizes the critical role of breathing and airway function in oral health. Her practice offers a range of services from routine checkups and dental cleanings to advanced screenings for airway and functional oral disorders. Beyond her residency, Dr. Gandhi has pursued extensive training in airway development, and the diagnosis and treatment of tethered oral tissues. She routinely screens her patients for airway disorders and oral restrictions that may impact growth, development, and healthy sleep. Dr. Gandhi advocates a collaborative approach to treatment and has established a network of practitioners in the greater Houston area. Her in-house team includes a speech-language pathologist, myofunctional therapist, pediatric chiropractor, and international board-certified lactation consultant, ensuring comprehensive and convenient care for her patients. Passionate about education, Dr. Gandhi shares her expertise with fellow practitioners. When not seeing patients, she collaborates with local professionals and lectures nationally to raise awareness and improve training in airway disorders and tongue ties. Understanding the importance of parental involvement in children’s healthcare decisions, Dr. Gandhi encourages parents to actively participate in their child’s oral healthcare appointments. In her leisure time, Dr. Gandhi enjoys traveling with her daughters, practicing yoga and pilates,
and exploring new culinary delights through cooking.
