Speaker Bio: Dr. Khadivi received his undergraduate Bachelor of Medical Science with honours in Physiology from the University of Western Ontario. He then attended the University of Toronto’s Dental school to complete his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree while making the Deans' Honour List every year. Upon graduation, he entered the dental field practicing all aspects of dentistry. During these years he realized his passion for implant and cosmetic dentistry. This new-found drive allowed him to return back to school for the completion of his specialty degree in the field of Prosthodontics. During this time he successfully completed numerous cases ranging from single to full mouth dental implant surgeries as well as full mouth cosmetic and functional rehabilitation. His exceptional skills and work ethics promoted him to the chief of his program at the University of Pittsburgh’s School of Dental Medicine. Upon successful completion of his speciality program, he then attended the world-renown MD Anderson Cancer Centres to complete a dual fellowship in Oral Maxillofacial Prosthodontics & Dental Oncology before moving back to his hometown of Toronto, Ontario.
