DR. Michael Shehata

Dr Michael Shehata is a highly skilled and respected dental practitioner with a passion for creating healthy, confident smiles. After graduating from Griffith University in Queensland, where he ranked second in his cohort and was inducted into the prestigious Golden Key International Honour Society for Academic Excellence, Dr Michael returned home to Sydney to begin his professional journey.

He spent several years working alongside some of Sydney’s most prominent dentists, refining his craft and developing a patient-first approach that would become the cornerstone of his own practice. In 2010, he founded Sensational Smiles Dental, a purpose-built clinic designed to combine world-class clinical expertise with genuine, compassionate care and absolute patient comfort.

Dr Michael is widely recognised as a leader in Cosmetic, Implant, and Reconstructive Dentistry. With a keen artistic eye and meticulous attention to detail, he has helped countless patients achieve beautiful, natural-looking results that enhance both confidence and function. Patients often describe him as honest, genuine, and approachable, someone who takes the time to listen, understand, and ensure every individual feels fully supported throughout their treatment journey.

With a strong interest in All-on-4 Plus® dental implants, Dr Michael is proud to be one of Australia’s premium providers of this advanced full-arch restoration technique. What sets Premium Providers apart is not only their technical skill but their commitment to the philosophy behind All-on-4 Plus®, a focus on personalised care, long-term function, and aesthetic excellence. His dedication and expertise have been recognised internationally through his Fellowship and Mastership with the International Congress of Oral Implantology (ICOI), an honour that reflects his exceptional experience and contribution to the field.

Believing that great dentistry comes from continuous learning, Dr Michael has undertaken extensive postgraduate training in Cosmetic Dentistry, Implant Dentistry, Orthodontics, and Bite Reconstruction. He has completed an intensive International Orthodontic Program, graduating with First Class Honours, and continues to attend advanced education programs led by world-renowned speakers across Europe, the USA, South America, and Canada. Alongside his clinical work, he is also involved in mentoring and teaching dental students throughout Australia, sharing his knowledge and inspiring the next generation of dentists.

Driven by passion, precision, and a genuine care for his patients, Dr Michael continues to uphold his vision for Sensational Smiles Dental, providing exceptional dentistry that helps every patient leave with confidence, comfort, and a truly sensational smile.

Outside the clinic, Dr Michael enjoys spending quality time with his wife Mariam and their four children. He’s also active in his local parish and loves playing both indoor and outdoor soccer, reading, and keeping fit.
