About Khani Dental

Dr. Khani's journey to becoming a dentist was certainly not a conventional one. It began when he was 20 years old, in Tehran, Iran. As the son of a Baha'i family, he was denied any opportunity to advance his education, a privilege only available to Muslim students. Faced with a choice between being drafted into the Iranian army, or working a menial job for the rest of his life, he left Iran as a refugee, traveling through Turkey and being granted entrance to the United States at the age of 21. Arriving in North Carolina speaking very little English, he found work, and years later at last enrolled at Wake Technical Community College. He completed his Associate's Degree in Biology and was accepted to the University of North Carolina , graduating with a B.S. in Biology, and a minor in Chemistry. While completing his undergraduate degree, his passion for dentistry grew. Dr. Khani joined the Pre-Dental Honor Society at UNC , where he assisted as a volunteer with Mission of Mercy Clinics in
