Experience
Meet the Founder
Smilo.ai was founded by Dr Padma Gadiyar, a dentist and healthcare entrepreneur with over two decades of clinical and business experience. Throughout her career, she worked at the frontlines of dentistry—treating patients across preventive, restorative, and complex care. Over time, one pattern became impossible to ignore: patients were not failing treatment, the system was failing prevention.
She saw patients returning with advanced conditions that could have been avoided if detected earlier. Delayed care was not due to lack of awareness alone—it was driven by access barriers, cost, fear, and the absence of continuous monitoring between visits.
