He doesn't believe in just helping resolve a patient's immediate concern but also aim to provide them with achieving good long term oral health. Dr Hsiao has experience working with nervous patients and strives to help make them feel at ease in the chair.

Dr Hsiao enjoys restorative dentistry, especially improving the aesthetics of front teeth and building up worn down teeth.

I graduated from the University of Queensland with a Bachelor of Dental Surgery (Honours) in 2013 and have been a full-time employee of National Dental Care since early 2014.

I am a caring and dedicated dentist with competency, skills and experience across all facets of clinical and general dentistry. In order to provide the highest quality of care to my patients, I am efficient in utilising the latest techniques and state-of-the-art equipment which allow me to produce same-day crowns and ceramic restorations, diagnose early stages of decay with our Diagnocam and show you detailed images of dental conditions within your mouth with our intra-oral cameras.

I am competent in performing Invisalign treatment which allows me to offer my patients a virtually invisible and effective approach to straightening their teeth. I am very passionate about providing excellent patient care and my focus is always on what is best for my patients.

I also have a proven ability to calm and reassure even the most anxious of people.

I graduated from the University of Queensland in 2012 with a Bachelor of Oral Health. Since then, I have gained valuable experience working as an oral health therapist in a busy rural dental practice at Ayr, in North Queensland. This enabled me to attend to the needs of a large variety of patients focusing on preventative care and treatment / management of gum disease.

I enjoy exercise and going to the gym whilst also becoming more accomplished in playing modern piano and guitar.
