AUTHOR BIO

Introduction to Tooth Truth Roopa Vikesh

Top Writer in Diversity, curated in Education and Nonfiction

Dr. Roopa Ramachandran (me) in a saree, a traditional Indian drape

I am a dentist working in Jamshedpur, India. It is home to the Tatas, who make steel and the Tata trucks here.

It is a nice city, but the stories I write are of the people in the city, not the city itself.

I have spent 20 years here, and I throw in stories about studying in 6 different schools across India and living under my dad’s Railway-man umbrella.

Most of my stories are truth or fiction based on truth. Tooth Truth, after all, by Roopa Vikesh.

I lost my mom in 2015 to a deep vein thrombosis that killed her in seconds, and I’m not over it.

I have two kids, both girls, now a teen and a tween, and a husband who who like me is also a dentist.

Me and my girls, 2008 picture. I use old pictures when they had their baby teeth, deliberately.

I am a lifelong reader, not a writer. I started writing on Medium due to the pandemic. I try to write stuff that might surprise you by the circumstances as well as the events. This is the story of mine Medium curators picked.

Me and my long-suffering husband who likes to keep his private life, private. I usually don’t drag him in, but this is a bio. He’a part of my name, and should be part of the bio, isn’t it?

Photography is an important part of my work as well, but my Medium articles on teeth tank.

Picture of tooth transformation, 2018–20

Maybe people find teeth with braces ugly, even if they have been straightened.

I’m telling forty years’ worth of stories in the space of the Pandemic, which is creating new stories of its own.

On Medium, I have found a new perspective and have learnt more than I have shared. Many thanks to the great writers who move me with their stories and teach me so much.

I try to write complete stories without making you have to go off to a bunch of links to figure out what I am saying. Even if I link it, (e.g, Mysore) I tell you a bit about it (people there think 20 is freezing and 32 degrees is a heatwave) so I don’t waste your time. Make it easy for the reader is my mantra.

I’ve tried to write poetry, but in my case poetry is also a story, compressed into free and sometimes rhymed verse.

You will need my photos to understand my text, because of the diversity in cultures.
