About Dr Bee. Inc.
Dr. B. Nhlangulela
Chief Dentist
Dr. Bongiwe Nhlangulela, fondly known as Dr. Bee, is a family dentist based in Sandton and Constantia Kloof, Johannesburg. Being a young black, female dentist who is now at her second practice, her steadfast commitment to dentistry amidst a challenging landscape, accompanied by her innate business acumen, has set her apart as a leading voice in the dental cause.
Born in Mthatha, Eastern Cape, Dr. Nhlangulela holds a BChD from the University of Pretoria, where she graduated at the age of 22. With dentistry experience spanning a broad geographical and demographic scape, her cardinal points are rooted in the promotion of dental care accessibility to those in far lying communities. “Increased accessibility and knowledge around oral health is key as it is connected to nutrition. A poor diet and overall poor health are associated with increased likelihood of oral disease – essentially making information and access not only necessary but essential to development.”
Informed by personal dental experience in her early years, Doctor Bee has an acute awareness of the deficiency of knowledge around dental and oral care. This has inspired Doctor Bee to take up her life mission to become a custodian of change, not only in dentistry but overall health.
