About Dr. Sonia Chopra:
Sonia Chopra, DDS, is a healer and tooth saver. She’s a board-certified endodontist, TEDx speaker, Forbes contributor, author, endodontic instructor, impact entrepreneur, and founder of Ballantyne Endodontics in Charlotte, North Carolina. Dr. Chopra became passionate about endodontics after a dental patient experience in her youth, where her pain was misdiagnosed, and the wrong tooth was extracted. It wasn’t until she was referred to a caring endodontist that she was correctly diagnosed, and a root canal saved her from pain. Now she’s on a mission to save teeth whenever possible.
On top of running her thriving practice, Dr. Chopra provides groundbreaking digital education and community support to general dentists and endodontists who want to uplevel their technical skills, patient experience, and practice efficiency. Through her thoughtfully-designed courses and in-person programs, such as her award-winning E-School, she is revolutionizing endodontic continuing education through comprehensive lessons.
