In this captivating episode, Ashley and Chris sit down with Dr. Jit Hindocha, Principal Dentist at Total Dental Care, celebrating 40 remarkable years in dentistry (1985–2025). Born in Uganda, Jit shares his powerful story of arriving in England at just 10 years old after his family was expelled by Idi Amin, losing everything but holding onto determination and resilience.

In this episode you'll learn about:

  • Jit’s early years in Leicester—living with 11 family members in a 3-bedroom house, hustling with part-time jobs, and how his family’s perseverance shaped his work ethic and career mindset.

  • How Jit continually reinvented his career every decade:

    • Building four dental practices from scratch in the 1980s.

    • Serving as a Vocational Trainer and Advisor at local and national levels, influencing dental regulation and quality.

    • His tenure with the GDC, including the insightful story of hosting an innovative live CPD event simulating a GDC hearing.

  • Jit’s pioneering journey into digital dentistry with IDDA, including his early adoption of 3D printing technology.

  • How advice from his father and cousin shaped his business philosophy—prioritising non-clinical time for strategic thinking, and eventually delegating more responsibilities, adopting the 'Golden Goose' strategy.

  • Jit's recent transition to full-time clinical director, embracing delegation, reducing clinical hours, and the exciting discovery of his "blue USB port"—a metaphor for finding new motivation and passion in his dental career.

Jit’s incredible story is a testament to resilience, adaptability, and continuous learning, offering practical insights and profound life lessons for dental professionals at any stage of their careers.
