Our Holistic Dentists and Hygienists
Dr David Cowhig
BDS (lond), Facnem (Dent)
Trained and qualified in orthodox dentistry at Kings College Dental School in London in 1989. David was introduced to holistic dentistry early in his career, and was impressed how the whole-of body approach had the potential benefit to his patients’ wellbeing.
In 1998 David migrated with his family to Australia and gained a fellowship with the Australasian College of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine (ACNEM)
For over two decades David has incorporated new modalities into his daily practice in order to improve the patient care. Moving from strength to strength, David has become a leader in the emerging field of Holistic Dentistry and a successful bridge between standard and progressive alternative dentistry.
David achieved a Fellowship in Nutritional and Environmental Medicine over 18 years ago and is currently studying for Certification in Anti-Ageing Medicine. Recently he has trained in the science of Epigenetics and Nutrigenomics with Fitgenes. Through his practice, he incorporates these advanced science based solutions when optimising your health prior to and after treatment.
Working in collaboration with like-minded health care professionals, David has established successful networks across a range of orthodox and complementary disciplines. His approach to dentistry is not only informed by a duty of care for his patients, but also by the health needs of himself and those of his staff.
Dr Duman Davari
BDHS, MDent (Griffith)
Growing up in a household of doctors, Duman was the first in his family to choose dentistry. Through his years of practice, he developed a deep appreciation for the significant connection between oral health and the rest of the body. This inspired him to pursue a holistic approach to dentistry, recognizing that true oral health is deeply interconnected with overall wellness. He is passionate about biological dentistry principles and committed to providing treatments that support his patients’ whole-body health.
Duman graduated from Griffith University, where he received awards for academic excellence.
While proficient in all aspects of general dentistry, he is particularly passionate about surgical and prosthetic treatments. He has completed several courses in implant dentistry, including the Australian Implant Academy Fellowship I & II, and holds a Master’s degree from the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (ICOI).
Duman takes a patient-centered, holistic approach to his work, deeply committed to treatment outcomes that enhance both oral and systemic health. He takes great satisfaction in empowering his patients to achieve optimal wellness. He continually keeps his knowledge current by attending professional development courses, with a particular focus on biological and integrative dentistry practices.
In addition to English, Duman is a native Azerbaijani speaker and is also fluent in Turkish and Farsi.
On weekends, he enjoys spending time with his wife and young daughter. Outside of work, his interests include playing snooker and tennis. He is also passionate about music and loves listening to live performances.
