Dentistry, also known as Dental and Oral Medicine, is a branch of medicine that consists of the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders, and conditions of the oral cavity. Dentists diagnose and treat dental issues and help patients develop better oral hygiene regimens. They clean teeth, correct bite issues, perform surgeries and extractions and perform other duties to ensure that the teeth and mouth are healthy. 

Outside of the office, Dr. Meshkian and his wife spend most of their time surrounded by the positive influence of their family and friends. Some of his favorite hobbies include fishing, hiking, mountain biking, and other outdoor activities. 

In addition to English, he speaks Farsi.
