drg. Erlin Tjokrodiardjo, Sp. Perios.

From Personal Challenge to Global Education
drg. Erlin's path to becoming a dentist began with a personal challenge; her own dental issues as a child sparked a lifelong passion for the field. She finds immense reward in helping patients rediscover their confidence through a healthy smile, knowing firsthand how transformative that can be. Her love for dentistry has taken her around the world, where she has learned from the best in the field, earning her the best education across various countries. drg. Erlin's dedication to expanding her knowledge is matched by her involvement in the dental community. Her time as a committee member of the Asia Pacific Dental Students Association (APDSA) from 2006-2008 has opened her eyes to the vast possibilities within the field. Inspired by her mentor, Dr. Henry Wong, who believes that "dentistry is an art as much as it is a science," she pursued a specialty in periodontics, focusing on the aesthetics of gums and bone (pink esthetic). Her journey is one of continual learning and a heartfelt commitment to bringing hope and health to every patient she meets.

drg. Diana Suntardjo, Sp. KG.

Turning Challenges into Triumphs, One Smile at a Time
drg. Diana's journey into dentistry began with a personal commitment to her own dental health. As a young girl, she experienced the benefits of good teeth alignment, thanks to the guidance of her aunt, an overseas dentist. Inspired by how proper dental care transformed her appearance, Diana pursued dentistry to deepen her understanding of oral health and help others achieve the same confidence. The highlight of drg. Diana's career is seeing patients return with stories of relief from their "hopeless" teeth, now pain-free and functional. She keeps her skills sharp by attending seminars, joining dental podcasts, and following international endodontists. Outside the clinic, Diana enjoys baking and bead crafting, hobbies that mirror her attention to detail. She also gives back to her community through her work at a church clinic, driven by a belief in continuous learning and the value of overcoming challenges.
