YOUR DENTAL TEAM
The People Behind Your Care
Meet the Joyner Family Dental team and the shared approach behind clear, calm, patient-focused care.
Principal Dentist
Dr Hsuan-Yao (Vince) Wen
AHPRA Registration: DEN0002256147 (opens in new tab)BDSc (UQ) · Speaks English & Mandarin
“Good surgical care should feel calm, clear, and human, even when the procedure sounds intimidating.”
Dr Vince was born in Taiwan and now calls Brisbane home. He completed his dental training at the University of Queensland and has built his clinical interests around oral surgery, especially wisdom teeth removal and dental implants.
The part patients tend to notice first is his personality. He is lighthearted, quick to laugh, and good at making serious treatment feel more approachable. That does not mean he treats planning casually. For surgical cases, he takes time to explain what is happening, why it matters, and what to expect before, during, and after the appointment.
Dr Vince enjoys work that combines precise planning with a calm patient experience. Whether someone is anxious about wisdom teeth or weighing up implant options, his aim is simple: help them feel informed, looked after, and comfortable asking every question.
