Dr Ambereen Khan is a female Specialist Prosthodontist who speaks Bengali (as well as English).
Amber attended Ironside and Brigidine College before qualifying for the University of Queensland in 1998. In her undergraduate years she was the recipient of several Australian Dental Research Foundation summer scholarships and published a number of research papers. For these achievements she was awarded the Pierre Fauchard award in her final year.
Having discovered a love of Prosthodontics in her undergraduate years she applied for a residency in Prosthodontics straight after graduation and began the following year at the prestigious University of Texas Health Science Centre at San Antonio in 2003-2006. Once again she was recognised for her research projects in bone grafting and implants and was the recipient of several awards including a Masters of Science in 2007.
Upon returning to Australia she joined academic life. For the past 13 years she has taught dentures and crowns to a generation of dentists and was instrumental in rewriting the undergraduate prosthodontic curriculum at UQ which currently stands. Her teaching commitment was recognised when she was appointed Discipline Lead of Prosthodontics at UQ and received a tenured position in 2022. At the same time, Amber stayed on the cutting edge of newer technologies and materials while working part time at a Periodontal practice where she restored hundreds of implants and treated full arch implant cases and all-on-4 cases in the past 12 years.
