Dr Kenny Tran, BDSc (Hons) – University of Queensland

Dr Kenny Tran is one of the principal dentists and directors at Forster Tuncurry Dental & Implants. He graduated with honours from the University of Queensland and has built extensive experience across both public and private practice settings. Like his wife and co-director, Dr Olivia Jeon, Dr Kenny now proudly calls the Mid North Coast home.

During his time in the public sector, Dr Kenny was part of a multidisciplinary team at Ipswich Hospital's Head & Neck Cancer department preparing and caring for patient's oral health while they underwent cancer treatment. He is an avid believer of early detection of oral cancers, peri-operative management as well as ongoing aftercare. 

Dr Kenny is renowned for his calm and focused approach, particularly when tackling complex cases. He provides the complete range of general dental treatments and has a particular passion for cosmetic and full mouth rehabilitation, surgical dentistry and implants. 

He is able to offer venipuncture and PRF (platelet-rich fibrin) regenerative therapy as an adjunct treatment to oral surgery and implants and has completed the highly regarded gIDE Master Clinician Program in Implant Dentistry as well as a Residency Program in Esthetic Dentistry through Loma Linda University in the USA. He is currently undertaking further training in Comprehensive and Full Arch Dental Implant Rehabilitation through UK-based Academy of Implant Excellence. This advanced training enables him to provide everything from cosmetic single tooth implants to complex full arch solutions.

Beyond implant surgery, Dr Kenny also has a keen interest in endodontics (root canal therapy) which focusses on retaining critical teeth for times when tooth removal or implant replacement is not a viable option. He genuinely thrives on problem-solving and precision work, earning a reputation for handling complex treatments with exceptional care and attention to detail. Whatever your needs are, Dr Kenny is able to tailor his approach to achieve a balanced and suitable outcome.

Not only that, Dr Kenny believes in treating every patient like he would his own family and takes genuine pride in helping even the most anxious patients feel comfortable and at ease in the chair.
