Dr Hoang is a passionate Specialist Orthodontist, with two favourite aspects of his job. The first being the transformational quality that orthodontic treatment can have and seeing people’s reactions when they see the results of the process.

Creating a beautiful smile for someone usually means they use it more! His other favourite aspect is helping treat obstructive sleep apnoea with orthodontic treatment. The effect disrupted sleep can have on someone’s health and wellbeing can be drastic. Dr Hoang particularly loves being able to help repair the situation in a local multidisciplinary team, collaborating with ENTs, dentists, sleep physicians and sleep psychologists.

Dr Peter was born and raised in Sydney, where he attended Fort Street High School. After completing high school, he travelled to Adelaide to complete his degree in Dentistry. Peter returned to Sydney to work in private practice and to tutor oral surgery students at the University of Sydney.

A pivotal figure in Dr Hoang’s career was Smile Team’s Dr Joe Geenty, who taught him his Long Orthodontic Course at the University of Sydney. It was Dr Geenty that encouraged him to become an orthodontist.
