Hi there, I’mJalal. You can call me Dr. Khan if you prefer, but I’m not so big on formalities.

See, dentistry is a very personal thing for me. After all, you’re entrusting me with your health, and maybe even your family’s. It’s really an honour.

What drives me is my deep commitment to empowering my patients with optimal health. This means pushing myself to find the cutting edge of not just dentistry, but also medicine. The latter has been covered by my endless study in the field of quantum biology. However the former was unfinished business.

Over the years, my approach to my patients has graduated from teeth to jaws. However I still felt there was something missing. By combining with Cole, I genuinely believe this to be the holy grail of dentistry. 

Understanding that the jaws are an extension of the cranium and using this appreciation to guide craniofacial development in children and craniofacial rehabilitation in adults.

I haven’t been this excited about dentistry since I graduated.

From dentist to oral physician.
