Dr Nelson Ung
Dentist · Special interest in implant surgery · Based at St Kilda

Introducing Dr Nelson.
Dr Nelson Ung earned a Bachelor of Biomedicine with honours, then went on to receive his Doctor of Dental Surgery from the University of Melbourne in 2018.
Dental implant surgery is Nelson's special interest, and he has invested substantial time in advanced study and hands-on surgical training within the discipline. Alongside it sits a second interest — clear aligner orthodontics — a useful pairing in implant dentistry, since where teeth sit and how they are spaced often determines the best achievable result.
What patients notice first about Nelson is a careful, gentle way of working and a talent for settling nerves — he walks through every step at a comfortable pace, so nothing comes as a surprise.
Beyond the clinic, Nelson's passions are travel, sport and time spent with family and friends — an easy-going spirit that follows him into the surgery.
