Our Principal Dentist – Dr Matthew Casey graduated from the University of Melbourne in 1999 with a BDSc (Melb) (Hons) after considerable education in the Bachelor of Science degree at Melbourne University before transferring to the Dental program.  Early in his training he received the Alan Docking Memorial Prize for excellence in Dental Materials Science, finished in the top 10 students in fourth year and in his final year of Dentistry he received full private laboratory sponsorship to excel in Fixed Prosthodontics, prior to graduation. This was reserved for the finest of students.

In 1999, Dr Casey commenced full time private practice and soon established partnership with Dr John Pulvirenti at Pulvirenti Family Dentists. In due course, Dr Casey acquired the entire practice and established himself as one of the leading general practioners in North Queensland.  This was achieved through considerable professional development in the areas of implant dentistry, orthodontics and complex rehabilitation of the worn dentition along with ongoing practice management.

Dr Casey’s formal implant training was completed at the Brener Institute for advanced dental studies in Sydney 2008, followed by achieving a Master’s clinician program in Oral Implantology with the gIDE education centre and Loma Linda University 2017.  He completed a mini residency program in Prosthodontics in Brisbane, 2009 whereby he could help manage broken teeth, worn teeth, lost and missing teeth through advanced restorative principles.    Along his development he has completed multiple courses in Cosmetic Dentistry that focus on creating a beautiful smile.

Dr Casey’s passion is for excellence in dentistry, customer service and building a long term relationship with our patients, families and children.

Dr Casey is married and has two children. When away from his surgery he spends a lot of time with his family and two children.  His children are involved with swimming, running, karate and soccer.

Dr Fred Meng is an associate at Casey Dentists, having graduated from Griffith University (Gold Coast, Queensland) with a Bachelor of Oral Health in Dental Science, followed by a Graduate Diploma in Dentistry.

Originally from Sydney, Dr Fred had a taste of the sunshine state lifestyle on the Gold Coast and couldn’t move back. Instead, he made the move further north up to the Sunshine Coast before finally settling in Queensland to enjoy the lovely nature, amazing people and awesome lack of traffic.

Dr Fred is committed to the best possible care and the latest cutting edge dentistry. He understands that healthcare is constantly improving and is committed to always thriving to perfect his dentistry. You will find him frequently attending continuing education courses, nationally and internationally, on topics such as aesthetic composite veneers and restorations with the best in the business, digital implant dentistry and the latest in 3D imaging.

As a bit of a technology nerd, he loves tinkering with the latest tech such as CEREC same day ceramic restorations, 3D printing digital mock ups and digital smile design.

Dr Fred appreciates that dentistry can be hard to access and is committed to giving back to the community, having volunteered in dental programs in Nepal and Cambodia.

Dr Fred understands that for most, dental visits aren’t in their top 10 favourite pastimes – so he thrives to make the experience as welcoming and relaxing as possible, presenting all the options so that patients are in control of their oral health journey. Above all, Dr Fred finds the difference that a smile can make to our patients’ lives most rewarding and thoroughly believes in our motto – Teeth for life.

Away from Casey Dentists, you will find Dr Fred binging on the latest TV shows and books, getting in touch with nature hiking, camping and fishing, and planning his next travel destination, ideally next to the ski slopes.
