I studied Dentistry at University of Sydney and graduated in 1989 with a degree in dentistry. I moved to Armidale and then Byron Bay where I gained invaluable experience treating an extensive and broad range of dental conditions across all age groups.
While practising Dentistry, I took the opportunity to travel and loved immersing myself in other cultures and have had many great life experiences along the way.
After ten years of Dentistry, I was offered a position to study as a Specialist in Orthodontics at Sydney University and graduated in 2001.
I have been practising Orthodontics on the Northern Beaches for 18 years and have enjoyed all aspects of private practice and especially enjoy the orthodontic transformation of my patients smiles.
Outside of Orthodontics I enjoy spending time with my wife Simone and our six kids. We especially love the beach and going for a surf with the kids. Manly is one of our favourite places to enjoy the outdoors.”
I can’t wait to meet you and to gift you with your dream smile.”
Early treatment has the best results. The Australian Society of Orthodontists (ASO) recommends kids see an orthodontist between the ages of six and eight. As an orthodontist on the Northern Beaches for 20 years, we know early detection and treatment to correct jaw growth and certain bite problems, such as underbite have better outcomes. Making room for permanent teeth to come in properly will lessen the chance of future extractions.
