Meet the Team
For more than two decades, SleepWise has been doing one thing exceptionally well - helping people with snoring and sleep apnoea sleep better, breathe easier and take back control of their health.
We believe every patient deserves to understand their condition, know their options and feel genuinely confident in the treatment they choose. As the only clinic in Melbourne and regional Victoria dedicated entirely to this field since 2001, that commitment runs deep.
Our sleep medicine dentists hold the Fellowship of Dental Sleep Medicine (FDSM) and are members of the Australasian Sleep Association and the Australian Dental Association. Dental sleep medicine is not a sideline for them - it is their focus and their passion.
The appliances we fit are Australian-made, 3D-printed and custom designed for your teeth - not off-the-shelf, not a compromise. Made from medical grade nylon, they are thinner, more comfortable and more durable than older acrylic devices, and backed by a three-year laboratory warranty. They represent the current standard of care in dental sleep medicine, and we are proud to offer them.
Dr Jeffrey Tho
Clinic Director
Dr Tho graduated with Honours from the University of Melbourne and is a Fellow of the International College of Dentists. Passionate about evidence-based care, he brings a distinctive perspective to the clinic: outside dentistry, he holds an MBA and represented Australia at three Commonwealth Games as Oceania's number one badminton player and national coach. He is an expert panelist and Badminton commentator and sits on the current conference and education committee of the Australasian Sleep Association’s Dental Sleep Medicine Council.
Dr Krystel Skilton
Clinic DirectorDr Skilton graduated with Honours from the University of Western Australia and has built her career across public and private dental practice, with a particular interest in sleep-disordered breathing, orthodontics and geriatric dentistry. She's a regular at international conferences - always looking for what's new and what works better - and brings a logical, empathetic approach to every consultation. Her patients leave feeling informed and in control, which is exactly how she thinks it should be. Away from the clinic, she's happiest with her family, at the snow, in the garden or with a cup of tea and a good book.
Dr Ken Lee
Clinic Director
Dr Lee holds a Masters in Dentistry and is the Co-Chair of the Dental Sleep Council of the Australasian Sleep Association - a role that reflects his genuine commitment to advancing care in this field. Having previously served with the Royal Flying Doctors Service, he brings a broad perspective to his work and a deep respect for every patient's individual circumstances. He works closely with sleep physicians and ENT specialists, believing that the best outcomes come from great teamwork from both inside and outside the clinic.
Dr Sue Lim
Senior DentistDr Lim holds a Masters of Dentistry and has worked across both public and private practice. It was witnessing the difference oral appliances could make for patients with snoring and sleep apnoea that led her to undertake specialist further training in the field - and she hasn't looked back. She loves working with patients to help them reach their health goals and takes a genuinely collaborative approach, working closely with sleep physicians, ENT specialists and sleep psychologists to make sure every patient gets the right outcome for them.
Dr Patricia Hanna
Senior Dentist
Dr Hanna graduated from the University of Adelaide and has since worked across rural, suburban, public and private practice - experience that gives her a broad, grounded perspective on patient care. She has tutored final-year dental students and has a special interest in oral medicine and dental sleep medicine. A member of both the Australian Dental Association and the Australasian Sleep Association, Patricia's goal is straightforward: to provide care that is thorough, compassionate and genuinely life-changing for the people she treats.
Dr Jonti Nolan
Senior Dentist
Dr Jonti Nolan graduated from the University of Melbourne Dental School and worked in private practice before joining the SleepWise team. They have completed comprehensive training in dental sleep medicine and has a special interest in oral medicine. Jonti understands that snoring and sleep apnoea don't just affect sleep - it can ripple through work, relationships and everyday wellbeing - so they take a tailored, whole-person approach to every patient. Outside the clinic, you'll find Jonti at live music gigs, tuned into community radio or quietly adding to their knowledge of Australian birds.
Dr Edmund Kwong
Senior DentistDr Kwong completed his dental degree at the University of Melbourne and has worked across public and private practice, including as a clinical instructor for final-year dental students. He has a strong interest in dental sleep medicine and believes that patients who truly understand their condition get better results - so he takes the time to make sure they do. Outside the clinic, he's a committed long-distance runner with more than 20 marathons under his belt, and already planning the next one.
