Summary
Dr. Gauri Velankiwar, DMD is a Board Certified General Dentist
Dr. Gauri Velankiwar joined the Mint Dentistry team in Katy, Houston in September 2025 after completing her dental education at the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine. Her path into healthcare was shaped early on by her aunt, a gynecologist whose compassion and dedication to patients showed Dr. Velankiwar just how meaningful a career in patient care could be.
She describes her approach to dentistry as holistic, compassionate, and personalized — treating the whole person, not just the teeth. Dr. Velankiwar takes time to listen and understand what matters most to each patient, building genuine relationships and creating an environment where people feel heard, supported, and confident that their oral health is in good hands. She's especially passionate about oral surgery and enjoys the hands-on, detail-oriented nature of the work.
Outside the office, Dr. Velankiwar stays active any way she can, with …Zumba as one of her favorite ways to move and have fun at the same time. She also loves traveling with her family, exploring new places, and trying different cuisines along the way.
