Dr Payman Hamadani BDS, DClinDent
Since qualifying as a general dentist in 2009, I have practiced dentistry across several practices in the Canterbury and Otago regions. I have recently completed my Clinical Doctorate in Endodontics (DClinDent) from the University of Otago with the aid of a Doctoral Scholarship. I hold a Fellowship in General Dentistry (FRACDS) and a Membership in Endodontics from the Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons (MRACDS). I am a registered endodontic specialist with the Dental Council of New Zealand. I am also an active committee member of the New Zealand Society of Endodontics. I have published scientific articles in national and international journals. My doctoral research involved a practice-based study exploring the way NZ dentists manage older adults requiring endodontic treatment. I enjoy all aspects of endodontics and particularly enjoy helping patients who are motivated to keep their natural teeth. I practice the full scope of endodontics as a specialist and work closely with the patient’s General Dentist in achieving the best long-term outcome for the patient. Outside of dentistry, I enjoy spending time with my young family and working with young people as a mentor.
