Here are some faces you'll see at Vogue.
Meet the Team
With the vision of success and growth in mind, Vogue Dental Studios collaborates with individuals who not only have the determination and experience, but also genuine passion and care for our clients.
The team at Vogue Dental Studios is a reflection of carefully selected dental practitioners, patient coordinators, nurses and individuals intentionally hand picked for their high expertise, passion and knowledge.
While Dr Dee is currently focusing on cosmetic and reconstructive dentistry, we have a dedicated team of experienced hygienists and dentists that look after all family and general dentistry.
Meet Dr Dee
Principal Dentist
Dr Dee has built his career around the cases others consider complex. With a genuine love for reconstructive and cosmetic dentistry, he approaches every patient with curiosity, technical skill, and a deep respect for the trust they place in him. He takes the time to truly listen to each patient, understanding not just what they are looking for, but what is realistic, appropriate, and right for their individual circumstances. For Dr Dee, great dentistry is as much about the relationship with the patient as it is about the clinical result.

Head Client Services Manager/Head Treatment Coordinator
My biggest passion is helping people become the best version of themselves, I am here to walk our smile makeovers through their journey at Vogue. Having completed my smile makeover journey I'm able to provide first hand advice and relate to you. On the weekends you will find me with my two French bulldogs, sipping champagne and shopping up a storm always with a smile on my face.
Client Team
PA to Dr Dee and Senior Dental Assistant
I love working at Vogue Dental Studios! Becoming a dental nurse has always been an interest of mine. I’ve quickly adapted to the fast pace environment and have grown to love it. When I’m not nursing, I love to explore restaurants around Melbourne and work as freelance makeup artist.
Senior Dental Assistant
I have always been moving around Australia ever since I was born. This got me accustomed to the fast-paced dental environment that I currently enjoy working in. Prior to that I completed my Dental Technology Diploma and Cert III in Dental Nursing. I carry a lot of love for all my pets which I consider as my family and hope to one day be able to travel the world with the ones I love.
Smile Team
Chief Operations Officer
I am an appreciator of art, novels and high-intensity sports. With a passion for work, and a dangerous addiction to tea, I often feel as though there aren’t enough hours in a day. Even after being at Vogue Dental Studios for over 10 years, there's nothing I love more than seeing all the smile transformations and developing strong friendships with our patients. In the rare occasion I am not at work, I am devoting my time to two energetic toddlers or enjoying a cup of tea with my husband.
General Manager
I live a very fast-paced life. With four boys at home, a big family and an eventful work schedule, I wouldn’t change what I have for the world. I like to keep busy and I’m always on the move so I can make most of the day.
