MEET THE DENTISTS!

Dr Selena is a friendly, approachable dentist who strives to understand her patients personally to meet their dental needs and enhance their overall dental wellbeing. Her philosophy in dentistry is to treat each of her patients the way she would want her family to be treated.

Born in South Korea, Selena moved to Canada at a young age where she completed her primary and secondary schooling. After attending high school in China, she moved to Australia to study dentistry at the Griffith University on the Gold Coast. She has been practicing in Gold Coast for many years before moving to Sydney and joining Inner West Dental.

Selena enjoys all aspects of general dentistry and is especially focused in helping her patients improve their smiles. As such, she adheres to the best practices in dentistry on an array of treatments she is highly competent in, including Restorative dentistry, Crown and Bridge work and Oral Surgery.

In addition to her gentle and compassionate nature, she keeps a firm focus on preventative measures because she believes that a person’s oral health has a tremendous impact on a person’s quality of life and general well-being. In this regard, she helps set a solid foundation for her patient’s long-term dental wellbeing.

To ensure her patients receive the best possible care, she stays up-to-date with new research by regularly attending seminars for her professional development and keeping herself well informed on the latest evidence based clinical literature.

In her spare time, Selena enjoys staying fit and healthy, cooking, travelling and exploring new places for delicious food. Other than English, Selena is also fluent in Korean.

MEET OUR DENTISTS!

Dr Caroline Chung completed her Bachelor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Sydney in 2003. She went on to complete her Primary Examinations with the Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons, and gained invaluable experience over the following years at two well established private practices, one in Sydney and the other on the NSW South Coast.

Caroline then continued her studies abroad at the University of Hong Kong, and completed a Master of Dental Surgery specialising in paediatric dentistry, and an Advanced Diploma in Paediatric Dentistry in 2009. She then sat college examinations, and through this gained Membership of the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh in Paediatric Dentistry. Caroline also attained Membership in Specialist Dental Practice (Paediatric Dentistry) with the Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons.

During her time overseas, Dr Caroline Chung was given the opportunity to present patient cases and research, and has done so internationally across countries including the IADR in Canada and IAPD in Germany. Caroline also had her postgraduate research published in a well recognised dental research journal.

Dr Caroline Chung has since been practicing as a registered specialist paediatric dentist in private practice in both Brisbane and Sydney. She is passionate about managing the oral health of children, and as a paediatric dental specialist, routinely treats children with anxiety and special needs. She also has a special interest in managing developmental defects in teeth, or “chalky” teeth, early childhood caries, oral surgery, and dental trauma. She has vast experience with allergies and her work is very allergy aware.

Born and bred in Sydney, Caroline now has two girls of her own to keep her grounded. Having spent her high school years in the inner west, Caroline is delighted to be able to service the local community she is so familiar with. Caroline feels strongly about supporting the local area, and has visited the nearby daycares and preschools to provide both oral health awareness directly to children, and information nights for parents.

MEET THE DENTISTS!

Dr Michael Santangelo established the original practice which would eventually become Inner West Dental. He has been practicing in Five Dock for most his career. While he no longer works at the surgery as much anymore, we are thankful for the great practice he started and look forward to his visits.

Michael became interested in a career in dentistry while in high school after being encouraged by his childhood dentist. While at Sydney University he met fellow dental student Barbara Czajka who would later become his wife. After graduating in 1976, they travelled and worked in London and then in 1979 returned to Five Dock and have been practicing here ever since.

Michael remains motivated by the amazing evolution he has witnessed in dentistry over the years. From the advanced modern day restorative materials to the latest in digital dental technologies, he loves that it's a profession where you never stop learning. While these days Michael enjoys spending more time with his grandchildren, his love for the practical side of dentistry and his unwavering desire to help people still remains as strong as ever.

MEET THE DENTISTS!

Dr Adrian Mazzaferro runs Inner West Dental with his business partner Dr Anthony Mak. Adrian was born and raised in Sydney and is of Italian heritage. While knowing enough of the language to get by, he is currently taking night classes in Italian. This has made both his Nonnas happy!

In 2005, Adrian graduated with a Bachelor of Dentistry (BDent) from The University of Sydney and was awarded the Anthony P Martin Prize for Excellence in clinical Endodontics (root canal therapy). Since graduating, Adrian has worked in several busy general practices taking care of both children and adults, and is therefore highly skilled in a wide variety of dental procedures such as general restorative work, emergency trauma, oral surgery, implants, orthodontics and high end cosmetics. Adrian enjoys all facets of dentistry but has a special interest in complex restorative procedures, Invisalign, cosmetic dental transformations, oral surgery and implants, and constantly pursues continuing education in these areas. He has completed extensive further training in the field of dental implant surgery at both private and tertiary levels and is a graduate of The University of Sydney's prestigious Graduate Diploma in Oral Implants.

He believes dentistry is a unique profession because it requires a combination of medical, technical and artistic skills. It fulfils his instinct to help people, combined with his interest in engineering and technology. He endeavours to really get to know his patients in order to understand what their health needs and goals are, so together they can achieve those goals.

Before studying dentistry Adrian qualified as a registered nurse, completing a Bachelor of Nursing (BN) at The University of Sydney. He calls upon his nursing experience to build rapport with children and anxious patients. He is compassionate and honest, and his obsessive attention to detail allows him to provide comprehensive treatment of the highest standard.

Adrian loves spending his spare time with his wife and young daughter and maintains an active lifestyle. He loves travelling, motorcycles and film.
