Dr Philip Song Graduated from Sydney University Bachelor of Dentistry with Honours. During his University studies, he was awarded the University of Sydney Academic Merit prize, awarded to the top performing student in each faculty. Feedback from his patients is that he is a kind, considerate and gentle dentist within the community and has had many referrals to him through his existing patients. Philip has a wide depth of experience in many facets of dentistry ranging from simple restorative, endodontics, periodontics, orthodontics to more complex crown and bridge work.
Dr Philip Song is a firm believer in continuing education and believes it is important for a dentist to have the most up to date knowledge of materials and procedures to provide patients with optimal dental care, thus he regularly attends conferences, seminars and he likes to be able to offer his patients the best clinical practice dentistry. Philip also has a bachelor degree in medical laboratory science, graduating with distinction, majoring in both pharmacology and haematology. This knowledge has helped him develop a more holistic approach to patient care.
Dr Natsumi Iwashima
BDent (Hon) BSc (Usyd)
Since graduating in 2009 from University of Sydney with a Bachelor of Dentistry (Honours), my goal as a practitioner has become focused more and more on prevention. My practice philosophy is to promote good oral health habits. To achieve this I focus on education, controlling active disease, regular 6 monthly check ups and cleans as well as conservative high quality dentistry. My goal is to establish a stable oral environment that is easier for the patient to manage and to reduce the incidence of pain and discomfort. I would like to approach my treatment as close to ideal as possible, just as I would like in my own mouth. I take time to talk and get to know my patients so that I may be able to offer the most personalised treatment options, tailored to their treatment goals and budgets. I hope to motivate my patients to have good oral care practices, to preserve and protect their teeth for their future. You will find me friendly and approachable.
Outside of dentistry I have always enjoyed an active lifestyle, going to the beach to boogie board, playing tennis, ice skating and skiing. However, with the birth of my son things have changed a little. These days, at the beach I enjoy watching my son splashing in the water and getting sand into every possible nook and cranny. On my days off you will find me chasing my son around a playground or enjoying a lunch at a local kid friendly restaurant.
I look forward to getting to know you and your family at our friendly clinic
