Dr Jessica Soden, BOralH (DSc) GDipDent
– Dentist
Jess knows that walking through the door of a dental clinic can be a daunting proposition for many patients, and this is why she strives to make the experience as relaxing and enjoyable as possible.
Jess is passionate about dentistry. She enjoys being a part of the patient’s oral health journey. Utilising a strong sense of care, compassion, and mutual respect, Jess loves watching her patients progress, learning their stories and building a valuable dentist-patient relationship. Her priority is the patient’s wellbeing and she will always provide the most appropriate care required.
Jess is Queensland-trained and graduated with a Bachelor of Oral Health and Graduate Diploma of Dentistry from Griffith University. She obtained Academic Excellence throughout her dental degrees and received the Medical Indemnity Protection Society Leadership Prize for Dentistry upon graduating. Prior to her dental degree, Jess completed her Science degree with honours at the University of Queensland.
Jess is passionate about and committed to attending professional development courses to continue her growth as a dentist ensuring she is up to date with the latest evidence-based practices in her line of work. She enjoys learning about all aspects of dentistry, however she has a strong interest in preventative and restorative dentistry, aesthetic dentistry and sleep medicine. Jess has completed her SomnoMed Training for Sleep apnoea devices, to help assist her patients on their health journey.
Jess still dreams of her pre-children days of extensive overseas travel, ski trips, visiting the cinemas, tennis afternoons and long restaurant sittings. However now what she loves most in the world is spending time with her incredible family, especially taking her two children to the beach or just cuddling them on the couch.
When she isn’t seeing her patients at Feather Dental on Shaw, you may see her enjoying driving her children around to their activities listening to an epic playlist, the Frozen soundtrack or Taylor Swift’s latest album. All which can be requested in her clinic.
