Graduating with top honours in 2006 and the highest GPA in dentistry ever achieved at the Gilan University of Medical Sciences, Houman was immediately drawn to the world of complex oral surgery, working as a general dentist in a specialist maxillofacial clinic.
After moving to Australia in 2010, Houman quickly passed the rigorous ACD registration exams and began practicing publicly as a Senior Dental Officer in regional Victoria. During that time he also completed his Masters of Public Health at Curtin University, which saw his unique research published in the International Journal of Dentistry.
Having also completed postgraduate training in oral surgery, periodontics and prosthodontics, the highly-trained Dr Larijani is in high demand – now working in private practice as a visiting implant surgeon across Melbourne. He has served as a clinical mentor for newly graduated dentists and is also in the final stages of candidacy for his fellowship in the Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons (FRCDS).
From a highly academic family of doctors, engineers, professors and lawyers, Houman’s continued love of research sees him writing papers and articles whenever he gets the chance. When he needs a break from academia and surgery, his passion for car racing and the great outdoors keeps him occupied. He loves nothing more than testing the upper limits of his toys around the Phillip Island racetrack or heading off-road with his family for a camping adventure.
