Dr. Vibha Bellary
A Passion for Healthcare and Dentistry
I’ve always been passionate about healthcare because it gives me the chance to make a positive impact on people’s lives. Dentistry stood out to me because it combines science with hands-on precision and creativity. It’s more than just a profession—it allows me to provide clinical care, build meaningful relationships, and solve problems in a way that feels both rewarding and personal.
My Journey in Dentistry
I graduated from dental school in India in 2009 and began practicing in Mumbai. In 2011, I moved to the U.S. to continue my education. I completed Temple University’s Advanced Standing Program for foreign-trained dentists from 2014 to 2017, which helped me expand my knowledge and gain the qualifications needed to practice in the U.S.
Areas of Expertise
I focus on preventive care, crown and bridge work, veneers, fillings, and clear aligner therapy. I also offer Botox treatments to help with TMJ pain. One of the most rewarding parts of my job is helping anxious patients feel comfortable, whether it's through patient education or simply being there for them every step of the way. I especially enjoy working with children, making sure they have fun and feel at ease during their visits so they develop positive attitudes toward oral health.

What Makes Bellary Dental Studio Special
At Bellary Dental Studio, we offer the latest in dental technology to give patients personalized, high-quality care. As a locally owned practice, we create a sense of community and trust by building personal connections and ensuring continuity of care with the same dentist at every visit. We’ve designed our office with comfort in mind, so patients feel welcome and relaxed.
Why I Love Dentistry
For me, the most fulfilling part of dentistry is building lasting relationships with patients and helping them feel more confident and healthy. Whether I’m helping someone overcome their fear of the dentist, guiding families toward better oral health, or seeing someone smile brighter, every day brings new opportunities to make a difference. I also love that dentistry is always evolving, with new technology and techniques that keep me motivated to keep learning and growing.
Giving Back to the Community
Giving back has always been important to me. In India, I provided dental care to underserved communities in rural areas and worked with children in orphanages. Here in the U.S., I volunteer with programs like Mom-n-PA, which offers free dental care to those in need. It’s important to me that my work not only helps individuals but also strengthens the community.
My Approach to Patient Care
I believe in treating everyone the way I would want to be treated. Dentistry has come so far, and there’s no reason anyone should feel afraid of going to the dentist anymore. I take the time to listen to my patients’ needs, concerns, and goals, and I tailor every treatment plan to fit their individual needs. Patient education is a big part of what I do—when people understand their treatment, they feel more comfortable and empowered to make decisions about their care. I also place a strong emphasis on preventive care because I believe that keeping smiles healthy starts with taking the right steps early on.
A Little More About Me
In addition to working in private practice, I teach in the EFDA program at Manor College, where I enjoy mentoring the next generation of dental professionals. Outside of work, I love cooking, reading personal development books, and learning about different cultures. I live in Abington with my husband, our children, and our Jack Russell terrier. When we’re not working, we enjoy spending time outdoors together.
