DR ALEX WENDEN

Specialist Orthodontist
B.Dent (Hons) Sydney, M.Orth (Hong Kong), M.Orth RCS (Edinburgh), B.MedSci (Sydney)

Ever since completing his own braces treatment as a teenager, Dr Alex knew he wanted to become an orthodontist. As a specialist orthodontist, he finds it incredibly rewarding to provide both children and adults with the treatment they need to gain confidence in their smiles.

Dr Alex completed his studies in Dentistry at the University of Sydney, graduating with Honours in 2007. Following this, he worked as a general dentist treating medically complex patients at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Camperdown. His passion for orthodontics led him to accept a three-year orthodontic training position at the University of Hong Kong, where he became a specialist in 2012. During this time, he also completed a Membership in Orthodontics at the Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh, UK.

Since qualifying, Dr Alex has had the privilege of working as an orthodontist in Singapore, Sydney, and regional NSW — including Tamworth and Shellharbour. These diverse experiences have allowed him to treat a wide range of patients with varied and unique orthodontic needs.

While creating beautiful smiles involves countless clinical hours, Dr Alex believes it is equally important to stay up to date with the latest technology and research. He regularly attends local and international conferences to ensure his knowledge remains current and his patients continue to receive state-of-the-art treatment. Outside the clinic, he enjoys spending time with his family and, when the opportunity arises, snowboarding, scuba diving, and playing golf.

After completing a Bachelor in Medical Science at UNSW, Dr Ashwin went straight into dentistry at the University of Sydney, completing it with honours. He then worked in private practices in and around Sydney for seven years, working in all aspects of dentistry, while also participating in volunteer programs providing dental treatment to underprivileged people in Fiji.

Whilst in general practice, Dr Ashwin enjoyed treating children and teenagers and seeing the positive changes in their confidence whilst they underwent their orthodontic treatment with their orthodontist. After undertaking a number of continuing education courses, Dr Ashwin pursued his interest in orthodontics by returning to university. The three year specialist orthodontic program at the University of Sydney has provided Dr Ashwin with the skills to provide orthodontic treatment to a broad spectrum of patients, with treatments ranging from early intervention to orthognathic surgery.

It is vitally important to stay abreast of best practice and new developments within the field of orthodontics, and as such Dr Ashwin attends as many conferences and educational events as possible both in person and virtually. He is certified in the use of Invisalign, continuing to learn from the best in order to provide the most advanced treatment options to his patients.

While not at work, Dr Ashwin loves to spend time with his wife and friends, ideally with good food involved!

Sadly he is not nearly talented enough to quit his day job though (luckily for his patients!)
