Paul Cashman

I graduated as a dentist from Trinity College Dublin in 2000 and subsequently trained as a Prosthodontist at the University of Iowa, USA. A fellowship in Maxillofacial Prosthetics and Dental Oncology at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, Texas followed.

Fate conspired, in the form of a Timaru local, to bring me to Christchurch where I set up my Prosthodontic practice in 2015. I'm really appreciative of the support I have received from our team, patients and dental colleagues to date. 

Maxillofacial Prosthetics and Dental Oncology

 

This American Dental Association recognised training program centered around treatment planning, rehabilitation and maintenance for patients that have cancer, traumatic or congenital malformations in a multidisciplinary team setting.
