Our Team

BDSc
University of Queensland

Rui (Ree) has wanted to be a dentist for as long as she remembers. In 2006 she graduated as a dentist at the University of Queensland. With over 10 years of experience, Rui is a caring, dedicated and compassionate dentist. She doesn't believe anything is complicated; there is always a simple solution.

Rui enjoys all aspects of dentistry, particularly restorative and cosmetic dentistry. With the knowledge that poor oral health can affect a person's general health, preventative dentistry is an integral part of her practice; we all know the old saying 'prevention is better than cure'.

Rui has recently completed a 2 year orthodontic course to gain more understanding in teeth movements. Having 2 young children, she wanted more knowledge in identifying malocclusions (incorrect bites/positions) and when it is appropriate for early interceptive treatments. Rui's goal for the future is furthering her education on children's dentistry, airway health and cosmetic dentistry. She is currently working on obtaining her LA&HA Masters in Laser Dentistry.

When she is not a dentist, Rui is running around after her young primary school children. Being a mother is definitely harder than being a dentist.

Rui speaks Mandarin and is laser accredited.

Ann qualified as a dentist from University College Cork in Ireland in 1997. From there, she gained valuable experience working in private practice in the UK for ten years.

Since then, Ann has worked in a private practice in Wynnum, enjoying getting to know her patients and helping them feel more comfortable with dental dental-treatments-brisbane.

She strongly believes in treating her patients as she would like to be treated. Ann is very thorough and likes to spend time explaining treatment options to her patients so that they can make informed choices on their oral health.

Outside of work, Ann likes spending time with her husband and two daughters. She enjoys taking walks and baking (Her girls are her taste testers!) Ann is delighted to join Rui, Garry and the team at Brisbane General and Laser Dentists.

Stacey is not only a caring yet efficient dental assistant, she is also responsible for managing the clinical side of the practice. Outside of work Stacey still loves to fly, only now she travels for herself and not because she's working.
